    Saffron rice and baby greens with falafel
    Neha G.

    Aug 14, 2025 review ---- I got catering arranged from this location for my workplace and it turned out to be great. Everyone liked the food. I arranged for almost 35 people. I didn't go for catering menu but regular online order. When placing order, it would not let you go above 300 so I needed to place multiple order, also issue with adding some of sides eg cranberry salad. It would appear on page and go away. Overally online ordering for bulk orders can be improved. I got the falafel bowls, steak bowls, beef kofta, chicken bowls, sides of salad, pita chips and fries and everyone loved their food. I tried the saffron rice with falafel bowls for myself which came with feta cheese hummus, cilantro jalapeno hummus tzatziki dip, grilled veggies, inside sauce as dill yogurt, cilantro yogurt. I like their OG yogurt and Fire chilli sauce too which were on the side. You can get some sauce inside the bowl like different type of hummus and yogurt based sauce as well. Plenty of options for customization in terms of vegetables. They also have drink options to add with bowl like poppi strawberry lemonade, poppi cherry lemonade, coke etc. Delivery of order was on time and well arranged. I had to call in twice to explaning them label each bowl to avoid confusion. That was time taking on my end. Overall good experience with catering.

    I'm a TKS usual. Mixed greens bowl with kofta. All the fixings. Fire chili sauce. Unsweetened tea. I know what to expect and I get what I expect. Good, fresh food and the kofta is cooked to order. Will be back again!

    Usually when trying a new place, I look up the menu so I am prepared to order. It helps me reduce my anxiety of making a snap decision- especially when at an establishment where you order at the counter. I did not do that this time and found myself panic ordering a salad option. I opted for the romaine over the spring mix because I wanted the crunch factor and the lamb because I didn't know what some of the other things were. Added almost all of the available toppings as well. The food tasted very fresh. Except for the meat. It tasted a bit dry and the grilled veg were lukewarm at best. I know they were making things fresh so I'm wondering if they made mine and then it sat there while they made my husbands as they warned us it would be at least 10 minutes for his to be prepared. When we ordered, we were the only customers in there, although a few other came in for pickup shortly after we sat down. The restaurant was clean but also seemed loud given the lack of patrons. The sauce bar is fun but I could only truly appreciate the OG Yogurt sauce because the other two were too spicy for my tastes. Fair warning- be careful with the spicy tomato based sauce (can't recall the name) as I watched at least twice when customers went to add that sauce to their cup and it spray on their clothes. For my husband, wearing black, it wasn't as much of an issue but the young lady in all white was less amused. All in all, I know we'll go back. And next time I'll venture out of my comfort zone and try something different.

    Great stop for fast and relatively healthy Mediterranean food! This was my second time to TKS, and I only hesitate from coming more often due to the price to quantity of food ratio (haha). As time has gone on, however, I'm realizing that the quality of food may just justify the price I pay! On today's visit I got a wrap (Shawarma), and really loved it. I was thinking it may not be enough food for lunch, but I left much more full than anticipated. Perhaps this was because I sampled all of the sauces they offered, which were delicious and rich and full flavored. Highly recommend them all (garlic, cilantro chutney, hot sauce)! The service was actually excellent--I even had a staff member come around to my table to ask how things were! Definitely unexpected at a fast casual spot. The restaurant itself was clean and bright and made me feel at home. TKS is rising in my eyes as a great spot for a quick lunch or dinner!

    The food is good. Very convenient. You can build your own bowl and if you don't know what to choose your can ask their staffs. They are all quite nice.

    I can't believe how nice this kid is working today. Just so refreshing to have someone so happy to just be helpful. Will come again and again. Food was incredible too.

    The gyro wrap. It's so good...and huge!
    Dutch D.

    I'm always looking for "fast food" options. I mean, it easy to get tired of pizza and tacos and burgers and such. I was Christmas shopping in the Mueller area and wanted a healthier, different alternative to the usual fare. The Kebab Shop with its great staff, quick service, clean store and great food was perfect. The FRESH food and gyro meat was perfect. Delicious but not filling and heavy like a burger. And. I LOVE that they have a sauce bar. Nobody telling me how much or how little sauce! So good! Now I need to come back and try the rest of the menu.

    Staff was friendly and answered our question regarding their menu. Multiple seating options and it was super clean. My plate was 110/10 really enjoyed all the flavors topped with their in house sauce. Will be going again! & Kids eat free on Sundays!

    The Wrap
    Priya J.

    Wanted to grab something quick, and decided to try this out . Got the wrap with chicken, it was delicious. It's different because of the wrap (I expected the usual pita wrap ), but it tasted good and leaves you feeling not too full , which is good(feels like a healthier option) . Service was quick and we got take out . What could be better : the sauce could be bit more blended in the filling (quantity) , you don't expect to taste the meat and salad as-is. you expect a blended flavor when you order wraps. It's definitely worth visiting!

    Delicious! The Kebab Shop is my family & I's favorite Mediterranean food place. The food is fresh and tastes delicious! The restaurant itself is very clean, and has very modern, neutral decor. Service was good, the guy at the register was very nice. We wish there was a location closer to us, as we drive an hour to go here. It's always worth the drive though! :-)

    Came in this afternoon for lunch after a very long stretch with hospital food. I needed a good meal and DAMN DID THEY HIT IT!!! I've been to a few different locations and per usual, everything was clean and organized and the staff very welcoming and friendly! If you want deliciously healthy Mediterranean food with epic sauces, GO HERE!

    The best tasting food the business is always clean and the people are always super nice to me. In the middle of eating someone even came over to ask how we were doing and if we needed anything. The best!

    Keto Bowl
    Ang F.

    This review is only the food as this was ordered as takeout. Starting off with a flavor profile - I'd give the dish a solid 4 stars! Simple ingredients that come together for a refreshing taste of the Mediterranean. Nothing too different from what you expect, but sometimes staying simple is what makes it so good. I appreciated that the white sauce wasn't too heavy, either. Again, simple and good. I made some modifications to this Keto Bowl, keeping the protein high. I would certainly make the same modifications again, suggesting the kofta over chicken. I mean, how often can one make chicken at home? But, not Kofta! I also added some kalamata olives for an additional source of nutrients and healthy fat. One less star, as I would suggest a slightly larger portion for the kofta. The option to add more was not available and, while the salad itself was plentiful and flavorful, I found myself cautiously restricting my bites of kofta so that I'd have enough throughout the whole meal.

    You can order by kiosk or someone take your order. There are Kebab rewards

The hummus was the smoothest I've ever eaten and with the brisket, it was killer! We tried the whipped feta with pistachios, and it was special -- salty/sweet and a little something special to make you wonder just what the spice was. The lamb & beef keftas were also excellent, with the lemon rice and a nice tsadziki -- and we make keftas at home fairly regularly, so we know what a good one tastes like. The only regret that we had was that we only have one stomach each. A second would have allowed us to keep tasting... Don't miss it. Even the patio dining was cool and refreshing -- and it was 86º when we were eating dinner!

Then, to get drinks or even the order was a problem. It took so much longer than usual. Our waitress was rude, and seemed bothered that we showed up. Then someone else came as the waitress and she was preoccupied with other tables and barely checked on us. A regular lunch which would've been one hour became almost two because of the lack of service. My friend had to stand and look for someone to give us a box to take out the good we couldn't eat because it was getting late and also to get the check because No one came in to check on us at all. It was almost like pulling teeth to get a regular service let alone good service. Again, the food was really good, and that alone was the only positive.

I've only ever ordered takeout at the counter so I can't speak to the dine-in experience, but the service is smooth and efficient. Dessert is ready in about 5 minutes and food orders during busy dinner hours have taken around 20 minutes, which honestly wasn't bad at all given how packed they get. Everything is always packaged nicely and securely, and the food is consistently delicious. They also carry other sweets worth trying like honey cakes and pistachio baklava. On the savory side, some dishes I've really enjoyed are the Mezze Platter, Beef and Lamb Doner, and Ribeye Steak Shish Kebab. It's not super loud but the front can get a bit overstimulating when it's busy, so if you're not a fan of crowds I'd recommend coming outside of peak hours. This most recent time, I didn't realize until I was home that they forgot to pack one of the baklava cheesecakes I'd ordered. They were able to refund me over the phone when I couldn't come back to pick it up. Highly recommend!

The chicken was good too and the köfte meatballs were my least favorite of the bunch. The pita bread was also fire and super fresh, honestly one of the best I've had when it's heated up and warm. The box was completely packed and was easily enough for 2 meals or to share between 2 people. Zucchini Yogurt with Fresh Dill and Walnuts ($3.25): Not a fan. It had a sour aftertaste with a citrusy zing that made me think this went bad. Chicken Lemon Orzo Soup ($6.99): Came with chickpeas, shredded chicken, and orzo. It was really yummy, especially paired with some sourdough bread I had on hand.

It's one of those places that's reliable and feels pretty consistent, knowing you're going to leave happy and full after eating here. The two times we've been there, theres always plenty of seating and are able to walk right in. It's a walk in and seat yourself experience and then you pay upon leaving. The staff keeps the dining area and buffet line consistently stocked and clean. They even provide hand sanitizer and gloves for you. Even when foot traffic picked up while we were there, the food was replenished quickly and didn't look picked over. Now let's talk food...Everything tastes fresh, well-seasoned, and like it was made with care instead of just being "buffet food" an under seasoned. The variety is also amazing, and it's easy to build a plate for pretty much any type of diet whether you're keto, high protein, balanced, veggie-forward, vegan, etc... Some of our favorite dishes we keep coming back for: Shredded beef (SO good), Baked fish (tender and not fishy), Garlic baked chicken (wonderful crispy skin), Fried chicken, Baked kafta, Kafta kebab, Gyro meat, Roasted cauliflower, Eggplant, Greek salad, Fatoush, Kale Caesar salad, Zaatar pizza, Cheese pizza (pro tip: top it with shredded beef- a life changing buffet hack), Rice with lentils, Rice with mixed veggies. For the quality, variety and amount of food you get, this is easily one of the best deals in the city! It's rare to find a buffet that's both affordable and consistently this good! If I had one small wish, it would be for desserts to match how strong the rest of the food is. They're not bad, just a little more "fine" compared to how amazing everything else is. I've seen another Dimassi's (I think in Cali) that had a frozen yogurt machine and I'd LOVE to see that here because it would be the perfect finish! Make a cup and then crumble up some baklava on it! Overall we've LOVED it here and we'll absolutely keep coming back! Great food, clean, consistent, and worth it every time!

    In my family, we really like Demassi's. Not necessarily because everything there is amazing, but…read morebecause there is genuinely something to please everyone. Between me, my husband, and my mom, we have a lot of overlap in what we like to eat, but we also have some pretty distinct preferences, and Demassi's is one of those places where that works. My husband really loves Middle Eastern / Mediterranean food. I generally do not. I tend to find the meats too dry, I don't particularly like the spice profile, and I also find a lot of dishes in that category to be overly sour. It's hard to explain, but there's often a sharp, tangy acidity that I don't enjoy. For whatever reason, I don't have that issue at Demassi's at all. Here my husband can get his fix of dry, spiced meats, while I'm happy eating from the huge selection of rice dishes, cooked veggies, and soups. As far as protein goes, I actually really like the fish here, so I almost never eat the meat and still leave satisfied. It usually feels like a healthy pescatarian day for me, which I like. Then there's my mom, who just loves the abundance and variety of a buffet. She's happiest when she can sample a little bit of everything, build plates with lots of small bites, and then go back for more. Demassi's is perfect for that. On top of all of this, it's very reasonably priced, especially for lunch or on weeknights. It's always clean, the staff is consistently courteous, and they are really on top of bussing tables, which matters a lot to me at a buffet. Dirty dishes piling up are never an issue here. Overall, it's a solid, reliable spot for us and a place we're always happy to suggest when we're trying to please multiple people with different tastes.

    Went out for a ladies night here and let me tell you this place keeps up to all the hype !…read more They offer free Valet parking on Friday and Saturday- so parking was a breeze ! We had made a reservation so as soon as we walked in we were seated inside in a booth ! The place felt cozy and comfortable as well as nice vibes ! They even offer bar seating ! They have a covered and temperature controlled patio too ! Our server was amazing and professional and answered all our questions about drinks and other stuff ! The cocktail were amazing - I was curious about their onion bagel drink I think that's what's it's called and my server got me a sampler ... definitely I went with something else . We ordered few dips and appetizers and 2 entrees! Everything was delicious! To end the night we got the Krembo dessert and OMG it's a must try !! Can't wait to ge back soon !!

    The food here was tasty, but the service was what really stood out. Attentive, friendly…read moreknowledgeable staff who did not make us feel rushed and paced the food out nicely. They were happy to chat with us without forcing conversation. As a group of 3 we ordered the traditional hummus, whipped bulgarian feta, beet tahini, the cucumber labne, falafel, pan fried halloumi and baklava apple pie for dessert. The group was not what I would call big eaters so we had leftovers (we likely should have ordered 1 less dish), they recommend 2-3 dishes per person (dips and meze). The hummus was decent, but I would not feel the need to order it again, the bulgarian feta was delicious and was tied with best dish of the night with the falafel. The falafel had perfect texture, crispy on the outside without cutting your mouth and soft on the inside. The beet tahini just tasted like beets and nothing else so I would not get that again. The cucumber labne was tasty and the halloumi was the only dish I took a bite of and would not take another. The texture of the cheese was rubbery, so despite having a crunchy exterior and delicious sauce underneath, I found the halloumi to be extremely disappointing. I am not a chef, but if they simply grilled the halloumi and served it on top of the sauce I think it would be much better. Desserts are not my thing but my friends enjoyed it even though they admitted the baklava apple pie was painfully sweet. I liked that it came with labne ice cream to make it a bit different. Overall it was a nice meal, the ambiance is modern and clean and the service was fantastic. A good spot for a nice dinner out.

    The food, everything, was very good. I had the Shish Tawook (chicken) with tabbouleh and hummus…read more The tabbouleh was fantastic! I don't know if it was authentic or not, but it was so good! The staff member that I dealt with was personable, pleasant, etc. Only one negative--I wish I could give the place a 4.5, but I don't think a 4 is fair--After I indicated that I was finished eating and ready for the bill (maybe I didn't communicate it so clearly?), it seemed to take quite a while before they came with the check. Otherwise, great food! (I did not try the hookah at all.) Oh, I forgot to mention: I was served a bottle of spring water rather than a bottle of "purified" water. That was fairly impressive.

    I gave 4 stars to give them the benefit of the doubt, but my actual experience felt closer to 2…read morestars. The main problem was the noise. The acoustics were very bad. The hardwood ceiling and the glass window in front of me seemed to amplify sound from every direction. I was with a group of six men, and none of us could hear each other. As the noise increased, every table seemed to raise its volume just to communicate, and it became painful. The food had a BBQ flavor, which was different for Mexican food. Some people may like that, but it was not what I expected. It was 4 star food. I think sitting outside would probably be much better.

    I met some friends for an early dinner at Gracia Mediterranean this past weekend. Since we were…read morethere early, the place was pretty empty so we were seated at a nice booth/table near the bar. Our server gave us great suggestions and helped us make yummy choices. My friends had mocktails and I had the beet cocktail with alcohol. My friends forgot I like to take photos for my reviews so some of the photos of the items we ordered we started eating before I took them so they show as half eaten in the photos I shared (haha)...must have been good! I was also happy to discover they are on the InKind app so I was able to use some credits I had available to help pay the bill. I look forward to going back again to try more items!

    This is a tapas restaurant so the plates are smaller and meant to be shared. It is on the pricier…read moreend but the food is really good. They have happy hour 5-6 pm and we got the hummus half off! The hummus was so good. I love the pepper oil on top that gives it a little kick. It comes with pita bread but if you order more, it's an extra $3. We also got croquetas (ham and cheese fritters). There are four of them and they are sooo delicious!! This is a must get especially if you love warm and creamy stuff. The outside is nicely fried and if you never had it, it's similar to Japanese takoyaki. Although I love it a lot, the portion was just right for sharing because it really fills you up. We also got the potatoes (nice, but nothing that blew my mind) and chicken empanadas that I thought had a strange, sour taste. I wouldn't get that again. I highly recommend getting different tapas instead of the main courses so you can try different things. We were completely satisfied with the meal after getting these but still made room for the orange almond cake!! This was extraordinarily good!! Not too sweet and the cake has a nice moist texture-not dry. It took a while for food to arrive so service was a bit slow. You can also sit outside if you want but we sat indoors since it was chilly. It's a smaller restaurant so it's nice for an intimate meal or date. They have a bar. There's parking in the back, which is where the entrance is. Btw, this is also on inKind so I got to claim $25 off $50.
