Very friendly cashier! The portions are generous, we got large salads. The chicken add-on and dressing come on the side with a "pita". The pita was more like a wrap. The chicken was a bit dry. The salad veg was very fresh! The atmosphere is like a fast food restaurant. There are 3 TVs each playing something different. read more

Parsley Mediterranean Grille - Greek Salad - I mixed it up before taking a pic! - Middle Eastern Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

The dining room was clean and the service was prompt. This might be on me and how I ordered, but my schwarma wrap really lacked spice. I only ordered the base wrap though. read more

You know a place is good when you not only look forward to their (fresh, delicious) food, but when you also look forward to seeing the people there -- Zaid (whose name I hope I'm spelling right) and the whole team at Parsley are the best! read more

Lunch on a Monday and not only are they fast for our office orders but they're so good. You can't beat a healthy and filling option. I was torn between the gyro bowl and steak bowl as well but went with the curry bowl and it was delicious. Two office mates each got the other two options as a well and they both loved it too. And I turned the entire team onto the babaganoush! No one besides me had had it before but they all loved it. We'll be back again. read more

They're a good, busy little shop. The employees were super friendly, and the line moved quickly. Indoor seating was functional, but I usually prefer non-hightops. However, the person I was meeting there arrived before me. The menu is very customizable, which I loved. The Gyro rice bowl was good and a decent sized portion. Thankfully, the restaurant has lids so I could take my leftovers home. From what I noticed, the restaurant stayed busy and was quite loud with the guest and kitchen noises. It wasn't too loud, and I was still able to successfully have a productive lunch meeting, so I would recommend it for anyone looking for a casual, quick bite. Pros: - Good food - Generous portion - Friendly service - Efficient service Con: - I wish they would have given a larger portion of sauce for the bowl, it felt a little dry. read more

Parsley Mediterranean Grille - Gyro Rice Bowl - Middle Eastern Near Me - Grand Rapids, Michigan

My friend and I ordered the rice bowl and gyro. Added garlic sauce too. Service was happy nice and professional.we ate outside where live one man band played. Even a smoothie was light and cold but a bit low on taste or flavor! read more

I had to report for jury duty recently at the courthouse downtown, so Nate and I decided to have a lunch date and stopped by Parsley. It was a Monday around 11:30 am and they were a bit busy with to-go orders and a few people in the restaurant. The person taking our order at the counter was awesome! I wish I got their name. We were greeted as soon as we walked in, and told to ask questions or if we needed recommendations to let them know. The menu consists of salads, rice bowls, wraps, appetizers, and some sides. It had been a while since I'd been to Parsley, but I had an idea I wanted a wrap of some kind, so I got the chicken Caesar salad wrap and Nate got a small Greek salad with a side of fries. You can add toppings to your wrap or bowl, but I just got the wrap as-is. Again, the employee ringing up our order was so friendly, kind, and helpful - I need to stop in again and get their name. We were told our order number would be called shortly and directed to utensils, water cups, etc. The dining room is pretty spacious and I like sitting at the windows to people watch. Our food came out quickly and everything was super fresh, and the fries were extra hot! The chicken Caesar salad wrap was full of tender chicken and the pita was soft, not stale. All the lettuce was crunchy and I loved the parmesan in the wrap. I am not typically a big fan of Greek salads, but theirs is amazing! The dressing is so delicious and I loved that it wasn't covered in big slices of raw red onion. There is onion on the salad but it must be chopped. The small size was perfect for us to share with the rest of the meal. I commented that next time I'd just order a large one to split. It was so good. The fries were thick steak cut fries, which were super hot and delicious. They do have a full bar at Parsley, which makes it a nice spot for dinner. Pro tip, park in the Monroe Center parking lot (attached to Leo's) for some free parking on weekdays before 6 pm. read more

The girl that waited on me was so sweet. I ordered the chicken shawarma bowl with the spicy rice. The food was fresh and delicious. It definitely filled me up. The pita bread was some of the best I've had. It was soft and fresh. I'll definitely be back! read more

Quick, easy, delicious. This place was perhaps my favorite meal in Chicago. Staff were friendly and we got our food with 3 minutes of ordering. Loved the lentil soup. read more

I had heard good things so we were excited to try. Portions were very sparse for the price -and the flavors were not remarkable. A wrap was $13.75 (NO fries, sides, or pop) and there was not much food in it; we went directly to another restaurant to fill our bellies. What little food present was fresh -but not remarkable or substantial enough to where it would be worth those prices. read more

Parsleys is darn good Mediterranean food, and reasonably priced. They have a small seating section outside but most seating is inside. read more

On a quick visit to downtown Grand Rapids we stopped in here for a light bite for dinner. The portions are super generous-we had a regular sized portion of baba ganoush which we couldn't even finish, and they gave us three generously sized pitas. I would have liked the pitas warmed-they came rolled tight in a plastic bag-but they were nonetheless good. The baba ganoush was smoky and the tahini came through, two keys to a good baba ganoush. We also had the stuffed grape leaves which were nicely marinated and had the fresh cool taste of mint and just the right vinegary tang to them. We ordered a small portion which was still a generous 5-6 pieces. I would say the large portions at this place easily will feed 2-3 people, so if you're ordering a couple of dishes for a party of 4, 2-3 large portions will easily be enough, but 2-3 small portions will be good for lighter eaters. Staff was super friendly and folksy, it's nice to have some one chat you up briefly and make friendly small talk, and the guy at the cashier was very nice. Thanks, I'll come back next time I visit MI! read more

The place is listed as Mediterranean but is missing a couple elements. Go over to Gita Pita to get really exceptional Mediterranean food with warm Pitas and jasmine rice. The price will be the sale and you get hummus at no charge and Tiziki sauce that is liquid vs solid here. read more

This place is amazing. I first discovered it in 2011 when I lived across the bridge. I've been eating lunch here at least once a month for over a decade. I recommend getting a sandwich combo. You can't go wrong with hummus and salad. Their Greek salads are also amazing. You'll want to bathe in the garlic sauce they put on everything. The lentil soup is perfect for a winter day. You cannot go wrong with this place. It is light food in big enough portions that you'll feel satisfied without feeling like you need a nap. The staff is always friendly and the service is super fast. Great for a casual lunch or dinner. I've often gotten several different lunch combos and eaten them for lunch for the week. I can't get enough of this place! read more

Overpriced but very very good. Very clean. Excellent service. The food was absolutely out of this world. Generous portions of the bread that comes with the hummus. Bathroom is extremely clean. read more

I got the chicken shawarma wrap and it had some juicy well-seasoned chicken in it. Some fresh tomatoes and onions and nicely pickled jalapeños. The pita itself was fluffy and warm and it was delicious! Would come back and try their rice bowls! read more

I feel like this restaurant is a hidden gem, every time I go it's not busy. The food is really good and well priced, and all the staff including the manager/owner are very friendly! There are plenty of windows so it's a nice place to sit and chat with a good pretty nice view. My favorite is the chicken shawarma bowl for anyone looking for recommendations! read more

Dare I say they have the best chicken lemon rice soup in GR?!? Solid spot for a fast casual bite. Love the wraps!

Best homemade hummus. I try to get there once a week just to have it in the house. Be sure to transfer from the environmentally friendly container they provide to glass. read more

My friend and I came here to try something new. The food is good and I will probably go back but will need to try new dishes. I had the Chicken Shawarma which was very flavorful but a little dry. I asked for a side of garlic hummus and that made it way better. Would get this again. I had the lemon chicken soup along with my wrap and it was only okay in my opinion. Really good consistency but the lemon flavor was a little to tart for me. I didn't finish the bowl and wouldn't order it again. My friend got the Beef Gyro and loved it. The beef has really good flavor and the tzatziki sauce was wonderful! She said she would get this again for sure! Restaurant was welcoming and clean! Staff is very friendly! read more

Stopped for a bite before heading into the art museum across the street-- what a great location for it! I love the outdoor patio, it was a nice casual lunch and the service was quick! I had the vegetarian option of falafel as a wrap, added feta for $1. Totally worth it! read more

This was very good. I was dining today with a native of Lebanon so my review includes his take on this experience, as well as my, less-discerning one. We ordered the falafel bowl and the chicken shawarma wrap. Both were good, we loved the authentic-style garlic sauce on the wrap. The chicken was a little on the dry side, the vegetables fresh. I learned the flavor of tomatoes over-power the shawarma, and wouldn't (shouldn't?) be included on such a wrap. But overall, this was good. The falafels were great, could have used a bit more salt, but authentically prepared and delicious. Personally, I could have eaten just falafels and tahini and walked away satisfied. The vegetables in the bowl were fresh, plentiful and delish - love the chopped pickles in the bowl. The spicy rice was ok. While both entrees were good, neither got us excited about getting over the finish line by eating every last bite on our plates (a yellow saffron rice would have changed that). We love that Mediterranean/Middle Eastern cuisine was represented and done well. A few minor improvements would make this a top-spot in our books. read more

Delicious! Quick, friendly and tasty. What more could you want from a lunch experience. Large portions, staff were helpful and grateful for the business. Hope to be back when visiting GR! (I may even come back again tomorrow before I leave!) read more

I got my food delivered through doordash. It was a quick turnaround from when I ordered to when I received my food. Everything tasted fresh. I do wish the chicken shawarma wrap had more sauce on it but the chicken was better here than other places I have tried in the area. The fattoush salad was tasty. The dressing was a little more oil-y than I'm used to but it still tasted good! I would order from here again. read more

Good food, flavorful ingredients. Staff needs to do a better job putting the rice bowls together - need to put enough toppings to be able to enjoy. Clean and quick service though. read more

The staff is always very friendly. The new website for ordering online is great and easy to use. Appropriate contactless pick with a table by the door is good for grab and go. We got a double meat steak and rice bowl with veggies added, tabouli, Greek salad plus extra taziki and garlic sauce. Perfect for 2 people for $26. The steak is always cooked perfectly with a little pink in the middle. You feel full and healthy after eating here. It's our favorite place downtown. read more

Baklava was so good. Also, had the beef kabob wrap and chicken shawarma. So delicious. Service was really good.

Customer service at its finest from the guy who took my order to the guy who made my order. I ordered a shawarma bowel with Spicy rice. It was PERFECT and the all white meat chicken hit the spot. Didn't love the hummus but the garlic was my favorite!! The workers were cheerful and seemed to really like working there. This will be somewhere I go every time I'm in Grand Rapids because of the workers alone!!! Must Try Place!!! read more

We got there 10 minutes before they closed without knowing and the customer service we experienced was completely unmatched to anything else! They were welcoming and cheery and didn't make us feel like a burden 10/10 will go back read more

Solid place. Definitely will come back. Gyro wrap was good. So was the hummus w pita bread. Wife had the lemon rice soup and it was really good. She also had the gyro rice bowl with half spicy rice and half white rice. Have a good blend of flavor. Good amount of food for the price and friendly service. Gets busy so get there early for lunch during the week. read more

BEST Mediterranean food in all of Grand Rapids! Definitely did not disappoint. Must try!

People's expectations are so low these days. This was an average med food joint. I ordered the gyro rice bowl with some toppings that included tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, jalapeño. It was very dry with little flavor, and the rice tasted exactly like minute made rice from the store. The only pleasant surprise was a wrap that came on the side with the bowl, but it wasn't warmed up and in plastic wrap that could have been sitting for a day or so. read more

A small group of friends and I are in town for a few days. Although the general feel of the area is a bit more lifeless than usual, stepping foot into Parsley was the pick me up that we needed today! The staff was so friendly and positive and the food was delicious! There was an upbeat mood in here which really did help us all! read more

Outrageously good mediterranean food and service! Very large portions. Good atmosphere. Clean and tidy. I absolutely LOVE this place!

We stopped in for lunch yesterday. The person at the register was very friendly and helpful in explaining the menu. He even suggested a way to combine some of our single elements so as to save us some money. First, the falafel was amazing. My chicken wrap tasted strange to me so I checked at the counter to see if they had accidentally given me someone else's order. Evidently there was just some particular spice that wasn't sitting well on my palate. They we super eager to make it right. I was willing to finish my sandwich, which I did, but they seemed genuinely disappointed that I wouldn't allow them to make me something else. It is always fun to eat at a restaurant that has the customer's enjoyment for the food as their number 1 focus. read more
