    Moms Chef's Salad
    T C.

    We came by to try a new sandwich shop while in the area. It is a bit small inside with a few tables. I am glad we got there early. We ordered at the counter a cuban and a chef salad and drinks are all in cans and bottles. I thought the salad was a bit small for the price but did have a nice amount of meat and cheese. The cuban sandwich did have pulled pork and was pretty good. They stay busy with many take out orders. Overall it was ok. A fun restaurant celebrating 40 years.

    This place is close by where I work and have been there twice so far, both times great. The first time I had the Mothers Special and this time the Worker, both were 8" sandwiches and both nicely packed with the goods. However, ordering the Worker I skipped the mayo and forgot to add oil and vinegar instead, a bit dry but that was my bad. Reading some of the other posts I need to order the meatball next. It's my Wednesday lunch trip. As far as service, there's three behind the counter taking care of business and quick to fill orders. Prices are fair with 12oz can drinks. Beware, they do close at 2pm.

    Your Mother's Special

    We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday after doing some Yelp research, well worth it! Simple but satisfying menu options, all fresh and made to order, fast and friendly service. Small but clean interior seating so you can sit and enjoy your lunch or take it to go.

    This is a childhood favorite of mine. The sandwiches / subs are amazing. The bread they use is English muffin based , so yummy and delish.

My friend had a chicken swarma pita and I had a custom bowl. It is an excellent concept. The bowl starts with two bases. I opted for spring greens and quinoa, but there are several choices including rice if preferred . Then one can choose up to eight different items , a sauce and then on to protein choices. My falafel was cooked while I waited. It was very tast and not as dry as some I've tried. The bowl was 12.95 and was enough for two meals for me. My friend said the sandwich was excellent and she managed to finish it. Service was good, people were friendly and the place was very clean. It is a cafeteria style but not too busy. Definitely worth a return visit to try all the options. There are also wraps on offer and kebabs. And I did notice while I was waiting for my falafel that the place serves only halal meat if that is important to you. As a vegetarian I found plenty of fresh options. I recommend this place.

    This place gives Garden Mediterranean a run for their Kibbeh OuiOui…read more I still LOVE Garden Mediterranean but they changed their menu, made the dishes smaller & priced everything super expensive. $10 for hummus? LOL. No. So I went hunting for another place, and I found East Bistro! I was driving over to Sprouts in Largo & saw it as I passed it! I made a quick U-turn & right into the parking lot I went... Right away I spot their tandoori clay oven right in the back & they have two shawarma spits right up front that smell so delicious OMG! :)... So I get some of the beef shawarma on top of the hummus... I have not had it like this before but WOZA! That is some good stuff baby! I ate almost all of it by myself. LOL I also got the Chicken kabobs. They were cooked perfectly. Nicely charred on the outside & tender & juicy on the inside, seasoned perfectly. Can not wait to order both of these dishes again OuiOui. The super surprising thing is that you get two sides with your 2 kabob platter plus rice & salad. I got the tabouli & hummus. It also comes with fresh made pita that they also make in house, which is fabulous OuiOui. But their tabouli. WOZA! Their tabouli is the best I have ever had. They make theirs with, I'm guessing, white vinegar? It's super tangy & very fresh tasting. Very pungent. Magnificent OuiOui. When I took some home for Sir Hubbers, I didn't say anything & all of a sudden he started raving about the Tabouli also. LOL Their dine in is super cute, but very small, it's mostly a take out place, everything on paper plates for dine in, which was fine. Everything is reasonably priced, entrees under $19! They bake all their own breads, make everything from scratch. And the tabouli, is a MUST ORDER OuiOui. Added to my lists of fave restaurants in the Tampa/St Pete area OuiOui. Can not wait to return! :)...
