It was a breeze to get to the free parking lot , walk a block or so to get right to it! For the first time , I went over by the tent area since it wasnt layered with people. There's GFF merch, dessert, coffee, ice cream, wine & beer. Last but not least, there were pork kabobs and fries. OMG!!! The pork kabobs and fries were a nice little switch up from what I usually order. And SO good!!! I also had a beer ( of course) created by straight to ale specifically for the festival. I couldn't leave without getting some desserts and a Greek chicken meal to go. Coming on the first day was so relaxed and calm. No line , no waiting. The volunteers were ready to serve!!!! Hope yall attend and enjoy the 52nd annual GFF!!

We tried the Gyro, the Greek chicken plate, and the pork tenderloin kebab with Greek fries. The Guro was amazing! The Greek chicken was seasoned well and so is the rice. My daughter had the pork tenderloin kebab. She said it needed a little bit more flavor. The line of the food looked long, but it went by fast. Definitely a must try if you haven't been.

It was very clean and well kept. The food was good - our kids loved their salmon. I liked the friday special pasta, a favorite. Our only issue is that half our party's food came out 10 minutes before the rest of the groups food and I had to go check on it and was told, very sarcastically that it was still cooking and I should have expected that. Didn't appreciate the snide comments, but maybe they were having a bad day.

Let me first say that I usually LOVE Tazikis! My go to food is the veggie gyro with pasta salad and…read morerice. I decided to try a salad and mix it up. I got the Mediterranean salad and added lamb. The lamb was in three small pieces and very tough/chewy. I have had lamb at plenty other places and this is not the texture of lamb. The dressing for the salad was very small and was barely enough to cover the salad. The lettuce and veggies on the salad itself were fresh and tasty. I think more feta needed to be put on a salad of that size, but that's just my personal opinion. It came with only one pita chip. I could have swore when I was reading the description of the menu it said you got three pita chips? Either way, was a little disappointed. I did eat the salad, but none of the lamb after the first bite because it was hard to chew. My boyfriend got a lamb gyro and his lamb was shredded and said it was very good! May be they use different types on salads vs gyros? Next time I'll stick to my usual. Also think there should be more than Splenda sweetener options at the beverage station. Sweet n low or stevia would be nice. Restaurant and bathrooms were clean and employees were friendly!

I was so impressed with the food that I sent photos to my son and recommended he give it a try. Great food, friendly service, generous portions, and a welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be back!

They are pretty reasonable when it comes to the cost of food and never have to wait long. I normally get either the catfish or ribeye steak dinner which both come with rice, Greek salad and pita bread with hummus. The catfish fillet is fried perfectly without it being too hard and has a very nice flavor. The ribeye steak is a thin slice, but don't let that fool you because it definitely packing a big chunks of flavor. They have more than just Mediterranean food for your preference.

Sharing a building with the great Taco Mama, this clean and easy parking option is a relief. Then to see such fresh flavors and open menu, leaves a lot to discover.

Great food, fair price, and the service is old school good! Can't wait to go back.

I'd definitely ask for her again. The cauliflower appetizer is an absolute must-order. It was amazing. The spinach fatayer was also very good, and the salad served before the entrée was spot on--fresh, flavorful, and a perfect start to the meal. For the entrées, the Lahm was excellent. The only dish that missed the mark for me was the Lamb Shank. It was cooked well, but everything on the plate had the same flavor profile, so it lacked contrast and didn't stand out the way I hoped. The décor is beautiful. Every design choice feels intentional, and even the music volume was perfect--it created a great atmosphere without overpowering conversation. One thing that really stood out was how attentive the entire staff and management team were. They were constantly making rounds, checking on guests, and ensuring everyone was taken care of. Valet parking is available, which makes visiting even easier. Overall, I loved the experience and will definitely be back.

The one thing I needed was some type of grain like rice or couscous to go with all of this. Regardless, this dish seemed to be the strongest of the dinner items. Also, the appetizer of grape leaves was very fresh and flavorful. It wasn't a big deal, but it did take a little bit longer than we had anticipated for the food to come out. Maybe it was because of the lamb shank. My friend did not think too highly of the Sayadeya, so if you are not particularly drawn to fish, then I would recommend something else. Like the lamb shank.

Upon arriving, I was pleasantly greeted by a gentleman at the counter. I placed my order, which was the chicken kabob entree, meat pie and water, and took a seat. I had my pick since I was the only customer at that time. The vibe was quaint and quiet, with music playing from their culture. Shortly after I sat down, the meat pie was brought out along with something like a toasted naan I think. The meat pie was really, really good. The irony is that I ordered it after reading another Yelper stating how good it was. I don't even know what type of meat it was. Lol! My entree came out looking just like the photos I had seen online. The tomato, cucumber and onion salad was very flavorful and fresh and I almost want to try my hand at making it at home....its just that good. The chicken was moist, tender and marinated well. Everything was freshly prepared and hot when I received it and I could tell it was made with love. I had enough food to take half to work for lunch tomorrow. My total was around $27.00 and it was worth every penny. I'm on a quest to try out all of the Mediterranean and Persian restaurants in the area. Taboon Noon o Kabab is right up there as one of the best. Try them out...your taste buds will thank you. Happy eating!
