We originally wanted to go to another restaurant, but it was closed so we walked here. We came here on September 25 at night. There aren't too many restaurants in downtown, it's a pretty deserted place from what we saw. We had one of the specialty gyros and the redneck gyro. Pros - the prices are pretty standard, around $15 for 2 gyros, and especially cheap for a downtown restaurant; food is above average Cons - there's no restroom (but then again, you can always just take it to go eat somewhere else) Overall, this isn't a place I'd go out of my way to eat at, but if you're around the area and looking for a cheap eat, this is a good option! read more

Really, genuinely good lamb and service. The sides are super good, too!! The soup of the day or any pasta... Mmm. I would come back next time I'm in town. Some tables are outside, which is nice!! Walking in Mobile can get old, and it was a nice place to chill! read more

Great tasting food! "The Mixed Grill" sandwich is the best!! Very continent location. And open till 3am. Definitely give it a try!! Only con is it's a little pricey. But the food is great. read more

Mediterranean Sandwich - This place is a nice surprise, small but with fantastic food . - Mediterranean Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

One star for the bad food and the unpleasant customer service. The food was a salty, hot mess. Undercooked, mushy half"baked" falafel burger with a very strong, raw cumin flavor. The gyro comes from a frozen stick, and it's super salty. The meat was sparse and smothered in ranch sauce that was supposed to be yogurt greek sauce. It's like eating hot bread with ranch on it. You get some salad, tomato, and if you are lucky the occasional meat piece. The boy behind the counter would ask for 55 cents for "free tap water" and he would argue with you if you express any surprise, yet alone objections to it. If he has run your card before you ask for the water you don't get the water...(even if willing to pay for it; you just get his rationale for the 55cent cost; obviously enjoying his job). Busy establishment. Full of college aged kids. Its high rating deterred us from trying other local restaurants in the area. The main strip wad dead at 6:30-7 pm on a Saturday night. read more

Good baba ganoush. Their gyros are good. The staff is friendly. It is a little pricey, but worth it to me.

Indeed, there is nothing wrong with cheap and delicious! I haven't had a gyro this excellent since my trip to Greece three years ago. The mixed grill and hummus..... Order it and you'll be in heaven too! Very fast service, walk-up counter, nice seating area if you can stay and enjoy. Homemade pita was delicious. read more

Oh My God! This place is amazing! Today was our 1st time to visit - but won't be our last. The hummus & pita bread appetizer - a MUST! I had the AWARD WINNING "Mixed Grill". I didn't let a drop of that goodness go to waste! SO YUMMY! My husband had the "Redneck Gyro". His was awesome... But he admitted he liked mine better. If you're in the Downtown area, don't pass this place up!! (There's also one in west Mobile / off of Schillinger Rd) read more

This was by far one of the best resteraunts I've eaten at in a while. I ordered one of their pitas, the Spartan Pita to be exact. It was exquisite. It came with lamb, onions, cheese, and some kind of special sauce. The price(s) are not that bad either considering the serving size. I will definitkelyt be going back there soon. read more

I was really happy with my meal here. Most of the gyro meat I've had taste like dog food flattened into slices, so I'm wary of all gyros. I really liked these though. The meat is nicely spiced and tastes (and feels and LOOKS) like real meat. I got the Mixed Grill and found the cheese plus aioli to be a little much for me, but the whole thing was still the best gyro I've ever had. Their spinach tomato orzo looks so plain but tastes amazing. I have to figure out how to make it at home because I live too far away to go here. I really regret not getting their tzatziki because it smelled heavenly. Even though the place was packed when I went for lunch, they have a really well-oiled team that got everyone's food out quickly. Plus their iced tea pictures were hilarious. I'd definitely go back the next time I'm in Mobile. read more

I was amazed at the smile on the girls face at the register!she brightens my day as I ordered to go she said ,"I'll bring it out to you" I sat outside for a minute went inside and it was ready ! now that's a Greek salad for sure ! Bon appetite! read more

Stopped here on the way down to New Orleans. Small place with 6-8 tables inside and outside, very reasonable prices and friendly service I got the Redneck Shawarma, which was tasty and definitely unique with smoked Gouda, mozzarella and spicy ranch coating the shawarma meat and sausage. The bacon carbonara orzo was creamy and a tasty side. Will definitely be trying the Chernobyl Challenge (only spice lovers should apply) when I return read more

Gluten intolerance? Have them put a sandwich minus the bread on a bed of lettuce! The Redneck Shawarma (bacon, chicken, Gouda and mozzarella) was cheesy with a kick of heat which made it pretty good. It's not a hefty portion and it would've been better without putting the chicken/cheese in foil. It stuck badly and I was either tearing the foil up or leaving a good bit of cheese and bacon to the foil. read more

I crave their Tomato Basil Orzo Pasta- it goes fast and they sell out of it. It is just perfection. They add in pita slices that are delicious and buttery. Hummus is GREAT! Crazy cheap in my opinion. I wish they would keep this location open for the bars ( they are open til 2 a.m, ) , but branch into a larger downtown or Midtown option as the location is very small. They do have a slightly larger restaurant out on Schillinger Road in West Mobile; they told me that this locale will allow other options that they can't serve in the small downtown business. Many downtown offices order out for this. The Carbonara Orzo is great too, but my fav is the Tomato Basil. read more

Amazing!!! This place was SO good! We used Yelp to search for local places to eat as we were passing through Mobile to Biloxi and stopped here. The location is great, right downtown Mobile and the seating outside was so nice, perfect day! I had The Italian Job which was a panini-style flatbread. It was delicious! Very flavorful and everything on the menu is under $7. This place is a must! read more

Phenomenal. First time in Mobile, wasn't sure where to get lunch while my boss was at his conference. I'm not usually a big fan of Greek food, but this place had high recommendations and was within walking distance. Very friendly service, and food is amazing! Would definitely go here again. I got the Mixed Grill and a little house salad. read more

This restaurant really is a nice simply stop, I would highly suggest it. I could go on about my order, the array of creative options, or what to suggest, but I'm here to review what I know how to best, that being the water. The water- It was pretty good water, but I'll get in depth about that later. I've gotta say they did down-class the place with all the styrofoam, which the cups were also made of (or at least in the West-Mobile area). Now the best part, the information you've been dying to hear about this restaurant, the zest, flavor, and culture to the water they offer. It was alright, not to plain, a little ting, but it did have that wonderful refreshing after-taste to the water. It was the traditional water taste with a twist or better put a tang. You know the image you envision of a runner finally getting that first sip of water after a long intense marathon, or a traveler through a long dense desert. It has a bit of that. I mean all the awards and hype of the restaurant aren't here for nothing. read more

Coming from the SF Bay Area I wasn't sure I was going to find a good shawarma in town. Had the Redneck chicken shawarma with great sauce and it was fantastic. A side of hummus was just as good. Good late night eating place. read more

I had the traditional lamb gyro with a side of curry lentil soup. I must say that the gyro was put together well, the meat was tasty and certainly not dry and the veggies were fresh. The lentil soup was a surprise, I had a small cup and by the end was wishing I would have ordered a bowl. Overall I would certainly dine here again if I was in the area. read more

The redneck gyro combines the best of everything. Amazing sandwich!!!! Everything we have tried here has been excellent. Quality and fresh ingredients only surpassed by excellent service. read more

Delicious! I've been wanting to try this place every time I visit Mobile. I love the homemade flavors. This is not your typical Mediterranean restaurant. I enjoyed the unique and traditional approach to the gyro sandwich. I would definitely go back again. read more

I have had hummus literally all over the US, worked in Greek restaurants, and I can tell you this was the BEST hummus, bar none, I have ever had. Sandwiches were good too. :) But the hummus is reason enough to come here. read more

Always good food. Anytime I'm in Mobile I look to come here at some point. The food is consistent and some the specialty wraps are the best choice read more

Food was good, but expected more after seeing reviews and awards hanging from their walls. Maybe I did not order their best. Did enjoy eating at an outdoor table. Parking was a bit tricky, parked about 3 blocks away, but was a nice day for a walk. read more

This place is really great. The workers were nice. We had the Portabella Gyro (hold the cheese), Baba Ghanouj, and Hummus. No joke it was some of the best food I have ever had. It was so good we came back for seconds in the same day! Awesome job read more

Vlad and his staff have given Mobile one of the Best Sandwich shops Ever! I have even eaten there 3 times in one day before! lol The ingredients are fresh and the flavors are out of this world! The Dauphin St location is open for the very late night crowd on weekends, and the Schillingers Rd location offers specials on a regular basis. Aptly named "Specials"! Wonderful authentic flavors, friendly fast service, great prices, two locations, what more can you ask for!!! Thank you Vlad read more

Red neck gyro, just awesome; Gouda, sausage, fresh greenery redneck zaziki, well toasted pita and gyro meat. Get one :) Ps. Note the "ice-t" labels,,,, read more

The taziki dip was absolutely amazing. Great spices on the pita bread and the dip paired well. The cheesy kabob was full of flavor. The gyro, however, was lacking the flavor that the other dishes had. It couldn't quite reach the stage that had been set. Cute atmosphere, nice and cozy. Service was polite. Prices were great. read more

Place is awesome, I have been going here for 8 years. The food is the best Greek food I have ever had with a little spicy Alabama twist. Favorite part is the location being right in the heart of downtown mobile. read more

The Redneck Gyro, The Mixed Grill, Orzo, & the Hummus is the best!!! Fast, friendly service and the food never disappoints. I go to this location & the Daphne location but this location has the best hours because it's downtown. read more

This was a pleasant surprise. We had a gyro and the soup of the day a southern chicken minestrone, which was amazing. Very small place but the food is first rate. So glad we stopped. read more

We found out his place on yelp. We were in town on Pretty Saturday and looking for low key no wait lunch spot. It was an easy 10 minute walk from Renaissance. No customers were present. No wait. All 3 outside tables open at 2:55 pm. Party of 5. Service was great. Friendly helpful and fast. I ordered Chicken philly. I wouldn't order it again. It was chunky cubed dark meat chicken pieces. I prefer thin sliced white breast meat only. The combo was $9.89. I'd try a salad next time. read more

Love this joint! I've had nearly everything on the menu & I've never been disappointed. Redneck Gyro is my favorite. Be sure to add any of the orzo dishes & don't forget the baklava! read more

The eggplant gyro was great for a quick lunch. I really appreciate that they have vegetarian options, we drove out of our way just because of it. Mediterranean fast food usually isn't high on my list, but this was pretty good. read more

This was a very nice little restaurant. Not a huge dining room but I personally like it. The service was amazing! They were polite, friendly, and even went out of their way. I was having issues deciding what I wanted because so much of it sounded so good. So I asked, between the two I wanted, which I should pick. The entire staff gave me their opinion between the two and I was at a draw so I said "Surprise me." The great thing was he went OUT of his way to make sure I didn't know which he picked. The cook asked which to make and the guy who took my order said "You'll have to wait till you get the ticket. He gave me the receipt that had the cost but didn't give me the receipt with the items ordered. Small stuff like this is huge for small eateries. It makes a huge difference. The food was amazing. I got the Jamacian Lamb which was very nice. A very nice portion and the flavor was there. The curry was amazing but they didn't drown it. It was a nice blend of flavors. My fiance got the Chicken Philly which is normally not in my taste but this was awesome. The Bacon Carbonara Orza Pasta is so good you could eat it as a main dish. The price is good. A main with side and drink will run you around 10 bucks a head. read more

They probably deserve a 3-1/2 star rating. I grabbed my meal to go since I wasn't exactly parked in a great spot and didn't want to linger. Given the location of the area, parking can be tricky with the other businesses close by. I may need to study a map of downtown Mobile before returning, as in pick a good place to park and then walk here or there to sample the wares. The staff here were friendly and I chatted with both guys as I waited on my food. There was a family of four in the place, while I was waiting, happily munching on their food and the general happy noises from them was a good sign. My food was good although my wrap was a little bit dry, I got the wrap with the spinach orzo inside, I forget the name. It was good and I loved that it was pressed but I'll try something else when I go back. read more

Food was very yummy and fresh. Taking away 2 stars at lack of customer service. Stood in the restaurant for 30 minutes waiting for my to-go order, while the manager had an important conversation with a friend not caring I was there to pickup. After his convo was over he decided to help me. He did give us a couple of old and dry baklava for the inconvenience! read more
