    sampler feast
    Kendoll C.

    We tried Big Greek Cafe for takeout and overall had a solid experience. I ordered the gyro salad and my husband got the sampler platter. The gyro salad was massive (definitely enough for two meals) though I made it one delicious night. I appreciated that the meat was packed separately to keep the lettuce fresh. At first it looked like a small portion, but once I poured it on, it was more than enough. The gyro meat was flavorful, tender, and everything you want it to be. The salad itself was fresh and generously topped. The sampler platter, on the other hand, was a bit of a letdown. While it came with a good variety and looked like a lot of food, the meat was dry and lacked flavor (it tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for a while). We ended up using quite a bit of the sauces to add moisture and flavor, but even those came in very thick chunks rather than a smooth dip. Still, the portions were generous, and my meal was great. We'd probably come back, but would stick to the gyro or anything made fresh off the spigot.

    The Big Greek Cafe in Laurel is finally open and the food was delicious (lots of flavor). Although the restaurant was super busy today, I received my meal super fast and fresh. I highly recommend their gyro combo. HOURS: 11:00 AM - 9:00 PM

    Gyro Portion of the Big Greek Feast!!!

    Thousands of years before, Kandor was a booming metropolis on the planet Krypton. That was several millennium before Krypton's most famous infant was loaded lovingly into a spaceship by his parents to escape catastrophe and destined to be discovered by the Kent's, and an even longer passing of time from when Brainiac stole and shrunk Kandor with then-Commissioner Zod's blessing. So, for philosophers and historians, a question arose, "What did life become for the residents of that 'bottled' city? I'd like to think the smallest and newest of the Big Greek Cafe's in Laurel, Maryland, at 13600 Baltimore Ave. provides an answer. Just as Laurel's Big Greek Cafe has quickly become a hotspot for citizens of the DMV to snag a Salmon Bowl, Rizogalo (rice pudding), Moussaka (Greek Lasagna-equivalent), a Hercules Burger, gyros, crispy flounder, and Baklava, so too would Kandor become a bustling destination for all Kandorian foodies. In Kandor, after all, there would be no other choice!

    This place is soooo good! Everything always tastes fresh and it is seasoned well. I go at least once a week.

    Gyro bowl
    Jessica O.

    Absolutely loved my food from here. I tried the our famous gyro pita with fries. Tons of meat on the pita and the fries were amazing! My husband got the gyro bowl. He really enjoyed it. We shared the baklava cheesecake, so good! Just treat yourself and get it! I ordered there at the restaurant and took the food to go. I would say it took about 10 min for them to cook the food. Service was friendly and helpful. The restaurant was fairly small I would not bring a large party to dine in. It was clean inside. I'm not big into Greek food but The Big Greek Cafe may have made me change my mind! Everything was delicious.

    The Big Greek Cafe for the win! 13600 Baltimore Ave, Laurel, MD 20707 Yummmm ! Greek food has always been a favorite cuisine and this venue did not disappoint! Service was fast and friendly and welcoming. A lot of my favorite dishes. My friend excitedly made me aware that it finally opened! By Lulu's, Cold Stone, Sardis, and Longhorns, Shoppers, and Pets smart.... I think there was a Starbucks there at some time. I'm always down for trying out a little bit of everything for a first impression! I left with belly full of yummies and I had fun exploring the menu!

    Gyro bowl (so good)
    Maya D.

    I think I could eat this every week. I'm trying not to. I had a Gyro Bowl twice and it was so good each time. I keep forgetting to take a picture before I start digging into it. One day I hope to go when I'm not so hungry. I would ask to add olives to the bowl. The lemon olive oil vinaigrette was not what I expected but so good with the pita. I think they need to work on consistency because both bowls had different amounts of ingredients that were obvious enough for disappointment. The Gyro Pita was super tasty! The Bifteki Pita wasn't seasoned as much, or at least to our liking, so we wouldn't get it again. The fries are perfect, of course. I need to go to Greece ASAP.

    Delicious Gyro & Greek fries!
    Mat G.

    A solid 4 stars! Their gyro was fantastic & flavorful as it was wrapped in a soft pita. Their fries were good, just not as great as I have had from other Greek fast casual places such as Marathon in College Park. Food service was prompt, friendly & helpful staff, and the prices are very reasonable.

"First, it will be her sisters. Stheno and Euryale.

That is love," Diana realizes, even as she contemplates that, soon, the misty cave floor under her feet will be beset with violence, meted out by Medusa's sisters, before Diana even gets a chance to explain that she is trespassing in the hopes of obtaining for Medusa the ultimate form of social justice: permanent chances for her to "look other soul[s] in the eyes...and be seen." The Black female ownership, the management, and the staff at Love Life Cafe, a snug coffee house nestled at 929 Washington Blvd in Laurel, Maryland, are fully aware how being seen is intertwined with social justice, kindness, and customer service. Black artists' drawings and paintings, some of which are for sale, adorn the walls, including "Wakanda Forever," featuring Chadwick Boseman, whom the world heartbreakingly lost too soon to cancer; "Say Their Names: Black Lives Matter," featuring Sandra Bland; whom her communities bitterly lost to police brutality; and, in a hope-filled change of pace, "Looking Up at Greatness," depicting two-year-old Parker Curry's recognition and wonder at seeing Amy Sherald's portrait of Michelle Obama at the National Portrait Gallery in March of 2018. So far, my wife has enjoyed a life-sized latte with extra hot cardamom oat milk; a life-sized cafe au Lait with the same; an açaí bowl, minus the honey and adding kiwi, pineapple, and mango; and a life-sized Hollaback Girl latte. Meanwhile, I was thrilled to devour a banana, cinnamon, and vanilla frappe appropriately dubbed "Monkey Business."

"It's a sheep demon...no, wait," Wong collects himself before adjusting his initial assessment, "a Sleep Demon." Meanwhile, inside this particular dream of Cindy's, Silk brandishes dual cutlasses, curved pirate swords, against a ferocious Jai-Li, an orangish-brown Sasquatch-looking demon who, with every skirmish, drains a little more "of [our hero's] psychic energy." "How do we stop [Saya,] who summoned the Jai-Li, from trapping Cindy "in her dreamscape forever?" Albert asks. Wong reaches into what looks to an untrained eye like a drawer full of miscellany before drawing out a closed fist. "This is the Crystal of Breksta." If Albert can get it to Cindy, by entering his sister's dreams, she might, just might, be able to slay the Jai-Li, wielding the shard as a dagger. At the Harris Teeter located at 14702 Baltimore Avenue in Laurel, Maryland, you won't be able to purchase a Crystal of Breksta, as in writer Emily Kim's second Silk graphic novel, but you will be able to buy fresh oranges, limes, dragonfruit, cherry tomatoes, multicolored Squishmallows, striking flower arrangements and bouquets, cereal, kitchen supplies, and every other type of grocery item you could think of, no imagination required.

It was an impromptu visit, so I did not purchase much. I really wanted to look around and select a few items while doing so. At first glance, the organization, flow and cleanliness of the produce department captured my attention. All of the produce presented nicely and it looked fresh. The prices appeared a little high for some items, but as the adage says, "You get what you pay for". I purchased mostly produce. The navel oranges and pink grapefruit were huge. They were also deliciously sweet and juicy. Before going to the checkout area, I moved along to other areas of the store and found consistency with the level of cleanliness. I ended the visit in the area with health supplements. In my opinion, the selection was relatively extensive for a grocery store. I was able to find what I needed and then walked to the checkout lane. Many of the items purchased were either on sale or discounted with the store's rewards member card. Since this was my first visit, I did not have a card, so the cashier used the complimentary store card. She informed me that I could sign up for a card at the customer service desk. The checkout process was fast. Finally, I walked over to the customer service desk to apply for a store card. The customer service supervisor/manager was nice. While processing the card, she made friendly, small talk, which was pleasant. The reward's card process seemed a little extensive unlike many other stores, but it was fine. Overall, I had a good shopping experience here and I will definitely return.
