    A very good hummus and pita!
    Robert F.

    The good: This place is 45+ minutes from my house! The bad: This place is 45+ minutes from my house! It was a Sunday (Gyro's apparently don't exist on Sundays) and this is exactly what we were in the mood for. Since we were headed to Powell Gardens, we decided to grab a little lunch first, and Greek came to mind. So we stopped by two places just to find them closed. Then we got smart and did a search along our route. This is one of the few that was open. Well, let me tell you when we pulled up and this was in a little strip mall behind a gas station... I did not have high hopes. But, that was me judging a book by its cover! This place is fantastic! The first thing I noticed was how clean and well-organised the place was. Top marks right there! It was decorated nicely. Not over crowded and a great feel (vibe if you are under 40). The next thing to rave about is how quick and efficient the staff was. This is not a huge place, yet they still do the numbers that you take to your table and deliver your food. That is a little extra that is well appreciated in my book. And I love it when a place does the little extras. And then the part you have been wondering about... the food. Well, the hummus was good. And then the Gyros showed. It is hands down the BEST I have ever had in the KC area. THE BEST. No question in my mind! So... I'll be taking those long drives just to get to this place and have some more wonderful food! Maybe I'll see you there!

    Burnt Lamb Combo Platter

    I've had ok food here nothing compared to humans and pita in OP. Lamb was dry burnt and fatty, falafel dry even drowned in tazeki. Never coming again after this time. I live in lees summit, but just drive to OP so I can have edible Mediterranean.

    Pistachio baklava
    Cat B.

    Absolutely LOVED the chicken Shawarma Combo and the Greek salad as the side. So much so next time I just got a big salad with chicken and it was DELICIOUS! The Variety Baklava was a great little treat after too. Definitely need to add extra green sauce, I love it on everything! I didn't love the Hummus alone but I'm impartial to spicy and flavored versions so adding the green sauce made it amazing to me.

    Listen... when I tell you that the hummus was so fresh and smooth like butter, the falafel was so delicious and light, and the pistachio baklava flaky and melt-in-your-mouth delicious with the perfect hint of rosewater... I need you to understand that I mean what I say! Not only was the food hot and fresh but the service was kind and welcoming and there was ample space for us to find a spot to eat. I don't live in the area but the next time I come there I will for sure be back. FYI - the french fries were perfectly made, and they had an unexpected spice on them. They also has unsweetened iced tea

    Beef Gyro Platter
    Felita M.

    Delicious! Food was plentiful and tasty. We both ordered the beef gyro platter. Hubby also got a side salad (ice berg lettuce). Restaurant is clean with lots of seating. Not hardly anyone there which can be alarming. They're just missing out in a good thing. Will definitely be back.

    I'm a huge fan of Mediterranean food. We have a favorite place back home in Las Vegas that we always go to. I looked up this place and Lee's Summit and here we are. Mmmmm!!! : ) That's all I got to say!! I ordered the lamb and chicken kabob. And it hit the spot. Come on by and get this a try!!

    Falafel Combo with baba ghanoush substituted for tabouli (also including 1 pita).
    Gena K.

    Raving reviews led me here in my search for Greek food in the Lee's Summit/Independence area. Located only 5 min. from Lee's Summit Medical Center, it is ideal for plant-based & healthy meals! I was trying to decide between the Vegetable Combo (appetizer) & Falafel Combo. Upon my arrival, I discovered the Falafel Combo was discounted at lunch and customizable! So, I ordered that substituting in baba ghanoush. I was ordering it to go, and the lady who helped me explained how I could get what I wanted in the Falafel Combo & she had it ready to go quickly. Ordering on-line would include a $3 convenience fee, or you can come in and put that towards a tip or more food...maybe baklava (wink, wink). The portion size was good (leaving some left overs for me). I enjoyed it & it's exactly what I was looking for. The rice was nice & soft. The hummus & falafel were my favorite of the combo. The only thing I would change is having warm pita bread and including 2 instead of 1 with what I ordered. However, it appears you can simply order one more pita for $1. And, I may be able to request warmed pita next time. So, these are likely easy adjustments. The ambiance is comfy & casual, with seat yourself booths and table seating. Next time, I will have to try the pistachio baklava that is such a fan favorite! Obviously, giving a 5 star review, I recommend Sahara Mediterranean (for takeout or dining in). Try an old favorite & try something new...You won't regret it!
