    Ordering, pickup and menu.

    I love Greek food, and Sam's is the best when it comes to quality, taste, portion sizes and price. They're super friendly and it normally doesn't take a while for your food to be ready. $22 for 2 Gyro combos that includes a drink and French fries. Simply delicious, you'll have leftovers. It's always so clean in the restaurant too; the tables, chairs, floors and counters look like they have a little fairy flying around making sure everything is spotless. They're also extremely helpful and always nice and want their customers out the door with a smile!

    This place has the most amazing tacos ever. Anytime I am craving tacos I come here. I get to choose house made topping to put on myself. The people are super friendly and remember my order although i dont come often. Go out of my way for these tacos no matter what.

    I've visited multiple times and I haven't been disappointed by the food yet. It tastes amazing and is cooked fresh. You can definitely get one thing and enjoy multiple meals. The employees are nice and fun to interact with. I'm looking forward to returning and trying even more menu items.

    Me and my man eating some delicious gyros. I love this place!!!

    My boyfriend always wants to go here. I used to never want to and would prefer Zaxby's. Then I actually went with him. I have now tried many different types of gyros. My favorite is the lamb gyro with only the lamb, feta cheese, and cucumber sauce. It's absolutely amazing. The service is good as well, all of the workers are very nice. I would highly recommend stopping at this specific Sam's for some gyros!

    One must be careful as this gyro place shows as the Sam's gyros near Jersey Mikes. DEFINITELY a different place all together. Avoid the the Jersey Mikes Sam's and come here. The size of the gyro is just WOW. I've eaten at lots of gyro places, and this might be the biggest portion sized gyro I've ever had. Tastes great too! Friendly staff and atmosphere. I would give them a five but I recommend MAKING YOUR OWN RANCH DRESSING. I'm one of those who love ranch on my Gyro rather than the cucumber sauce.

    Sam's is a small gyro shop located in a shopping center just outside of Fort Campbell, KY. It is modestly decorated in the front and quite busy (cluttered) in the kitchen area, which is in full view of the dining area. To put it simply, the restaurant looks cheap. To be clear, cheap is not bad. My favorite restaurants are often what most people would consider "dives." They have a pretty small menu of wings, gyros (lamb, chicken), german schnitzel, schnitzel sandwiches, fries, etc. A very nice lady took our order, we sat down in the dining area and she brought our food out shortly. The food is OK. Not bad, but not impressive either. The gyro must have a "Clarksville spin" on it since it was overloaded with iceberg lettuce, tomato slices and shredded cheese. This is not an authentic gyro or even something remotely close to it. I got the meal, so fries were included and topped with a seasoned salt. Not bad, but again....not impressive. Perhaps my expectations were a little high, but I expect authentic gyros when I go to a place like this. I was disappointed and will not return except perhaps to try their wings. Looking at other reviews they are worth a shot.

    Really happy to have a very good mediterranean restaurant in the area. My wife and I ordered some…read morethings for take-out. Arriving, the staff was very friendly and said that we should be sure to come and dine in person next time, and I think we will. The restaurant is small, and nicely decorated. We ordered Hummus & Pita and Baba Ghanoush & Pita. We kinda treat these as simple tests of a Middle Eastern restaurant. And Mediterranean Grill did not disappoint. While our preference is for the Hummus to be a bit thicker, this had very good flavor. The Baba has the taste of being made with grilled / smoked eggplant, which we really like as it adds a great depth of flavor. And the Pita was quite good. (We'd ordered enough that we had another meal that included these, and the Pita was still great a day or two later. I like it toasted, BTW.) My wife ordered the Gyro Sandwich and really enjoyed it. I thought that the meat had a great flavor and just the right amount of juiciness and tenderness. I ordered the Falafel Platter, and they were beautifully seasoned and fried to a great crispy texture without becoming dried out. Eating them along with the Hummus (that comes with the platter) made for quite a treat. And I also had a Mediterranean Slushy (minty lemonade) that was outstanding. The staff and I spoke a bit about dessert and how they made it themselves (rather than buying them in) and changed them each week. I thought I'd ordered a baklava, but got home and found that it was not in the bag nor on the receipt, so I must not have been clear. I'll sure be so next time. (Of course, if we're eating in, it will be pretty obvious!) Anyway, we're looking forward to our next meal from these folks.

I love the atmosphere of the restaurant part: small, cozy, and ethnic music videos playing behind the bar. I have read other reviews, which weren't favorable to the layout of this restaurant, but if you've ever been outside of the U.S. you know not all restaurants and food places look like an American example. I love this place. I ate a small, quick plate of Lamb Gyro and fries. Also, I had the Turkish coffee...absolutely amazing!! The food was cooked hot and fresh. The owner and staff are nearby but respectful and don't come by to see how you are. I hope to be a regular here, if I can be around in the afternoons.

    I stopped in looking for authentic Egyptian food instead of the typical Americanized "Mediterranean…read moregrill" experience, and this place genuinely stood out. The Alexandrian liver was the highlight of the meal. I've had liver before in traditional American-style dishes, and this was completely different. The flavor was spicy, layered, rich, and deeply savory with a lot of complexity from the seasoning. Most importantly, there was absolutely none of the metallic taste that usually comes with liver, which tells me the kitchen really knows how to prepare it properly. The bread was warmed rather than toasted, and while I personally prefer a little less bread so the flavor of the meat comes through even stronger, the bread had absorbed the juices and spices well and gave it a very authentic street-food feel. The kofta platter was also excellent and clearly not generic gyro-shop food. The seasoning profile was warmer, smokier, and more spice-forward, and the tahini paired really well with the grilled meat and rice. I also tried the Om Ali dessert, which tasted rich, homemade, and authentic. The cream, butter, coconut, and almonds gave it a rustic comfort-food quality that felt much more traditional than a polished American dessert. Overall, this restaurant feels like a real Egyptian kitchen preserving its identity instead of watering everything down for mass appeal. The Alexandrian liver alone is worth coming back for

I usually order the Mixed Grill, which is a great way to enjoy a variety of perfectly seasoned meats. This last visit I tried the Beef Shish Kebab, and it was incredibly tender, juicy, and full of amazing flavor. Every dish tastes authentic, the portions are generous, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The staff is welcoming, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. If you're looking to try authentic Egyptian cuisine, I highly recommend Philomena's--you won't be disappointed!
