I've been a few times and as a Greek, enjoy this restaurant…read more The restaurant is clean, and the decor is authentic. I think the menu offers quite a bit and overall the food it tasty. The one thing I would offer as constructive criticism is really watch the amount of dry oregano you add after the fact. Most of what we received had more than a dusting, which isn't pleasant with dried herbs. (Note, I love oregano and cook with it all the time. This was just excessive). The other thing I would note is there isn't that spirit of hospitality when you are there, which is what the Greeks are known for. Service was I'd say a bit below average- for example, we ordered a bunch of appetizers, and were done with quite a bit of it. When our food came out the waitress tried to deliver all the food on an already crowded table. We had to ask her to remove the dirty, empty plates first. We also had people run out of water, and she never came back to refill. The other thing was it was clearly a celebratory dinner. It would have been nice to at least ask what was going on. Not looking for anything, but typically a server would at least chat you up. All that said, we will be back and recommend this place to others. Would just recommend tasting the food before it does out to make sure its not caked with dried oregano, and bring a little more of that Greek spirit to the business.

The fries were tasty with a nice seasoning that boosted their flavor. My server was friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. However, the hostess who seated me didn't seem very welcoming. As the saying goes, first impressions matter, and the first person you encounter sets the tone for the rest of the experience. The ambiance was pleasant overall, though the place felt somewhat ordinary.

I was a bit disappointed in my food from this restaurant. The fried pork chop was not what I…read moreexpected. I guess that when I think of a fried pork chop I expect a breaded fried chop. This was not and was rather dry. Luckily, I ordered a side of gravy that was tasty. The Mac n cheese was dry, overly peppery and had very little cheese. The collards were decent, but very salty. The asparagus was good as was the cornbread. The gyro salad was nothing but romaine, tomato, pickles and feta. All fresh, but the Greek dressing was all oil. The gyro meat was mostly burnt. I have had food from here in the past and it was better than this. I will rethink ordering from here again. I have just spent 2 and a half weeks in the hospital eating horrible hospital food. I was so looking forward to a home style meal. Oh, well

The lady started friendly but seemed cold when I looked at iPad to review the bill. We ordered 2 sandwiches- 1 gyro and 1 shawarma. It CLEARLY on the menu says it comes with a side of fries, Greek salad, hummus, pita etc. Nowhere does it mention an up-charge for anything. I saw it said +$2.50 for each of the sides we asked for with the sandwich. I questioned this and she gave me a face like "how dare I question?" And just said "nothing is included with Sandwich, even fries". It literally contradicts what is on the menu! She said she'll tell her manager. Anyway- that was weird. Also, on the mixed grille it came with the tiniest pieces of pita, almost offensive, given the price. The entrance feels nicer for a take out place with the fake plants on the walls, but the back is closed off and the bathroom is dirty. Overall, I'd really only go for take out. And know they're cheap and will nickel and dime you.

There was a few people in line, there's no seating in the front there but it is a to go express place which we knew. They did have some benches that were fine. Food is 5 STARS! My wife got the gyro w the fries! 100% everything was on point. 0 complaints! Seasonings on point! I got the gyro melt which was a sandwich that came with swiss cheese! Amazing! Everything we got was a must try. 0 complaints! Guy at front with long hair and a hat. Sorry I didn't get your name was really nice and recommended this orange greek soda she had. 5 stars to the place TBH. I hope this review makes everyone STOP BY! Tell them Ari from YELP SENT YOU!

Ordered the street gyro and I really liked it! Charbroiled shaved beef and lamb was a nice mix and tomato and red onion were fresh. Wish it had MORE TAZIKI SAUCE, will ask for extra next time we the gyro was dry. They were out of fries so I got the cucumber salad. It was good but I would have preferred fries. The street gyro is SMALL. I think I would rather have two of them and skip the sides! Ordered the lemon white chip cookies and they were good and too, just not fresh baked good. Liked my meal and will probably come back

Have you ever been to a restaurant and loved every bite of your meal, promising yourself you'd…read morereturn because there was still so much left to explore on the menu? Have you ever discovered that neighborhood gem worth the trip no matter where you're coming from? That's Ji-Roz. This Greek-inspired restaurant is located just a few minutes walk from NOMA on the quieter, residential stretch of Main Street. The ambiance strikes the perfect balance; intimate enough for a casual date night, relaxed enough for a long lunch with friends. And the food? It's guaranteed to spark conversation, with a symphony of distinct flavors that blend seamlessly into something truly greater than the sum of their parts. We order the spanakopita every single visit, and it never disappoints. The flaky crust gives way to a perfectly balanced blend of feta and spinach that sets the tone for the meal beautifully. The smoked octopus with capers is another standout appetizer. It's bold, flavorful, and absolutely worth exploring. For an entrée, don't overlook the fresh North Carolina trout served over a pea and mint purée, accompanied by Greek potatoes and roasted broccolini, and finished with a cucumber and caper relish. It's a masterclass in balance with every component complementing the fish rather than competing with it, resulting in a layered, memorable plate. The restaurant also offers a thoughtful selection of casual wines and beers to round out the experience. As we were leaving after a late lunch, we caught the chef making fresh pasta for the dinner menu. Safe to say, we'll be back and soon.

When we got there, the kitchen was closed and had to turn around and head back downtown and find parking and another place to ear. They didn't call or text, yet we had to give credit card info and cx within 6 hrs or it would be charged. By the time we were able to find something many places had stopped serving. I'm sure it was unexpected, but a call or text would have been appreciated- especially with the reservation policy!!!
