I love Makarios! I've been eating here for years. Service is, for the most part, always good, and…read morethe food is consistently delicious! I've honestly never had a dish here that I didn't like. My favorites include the Zesty Ghallaba (chicken or salmon), the Shish Tawook with Lemon Oregano and the Spinach Salad with Grilled Chicken. The ambiance is perfect for date night or a nice dinner by yourself. On average, for two people, expect to spend between $45-$55 on authentic Mediterranean cuisine that's been a staple in the city for years. Give them a try. You won't be disappointed! Pro Tip: Their salad dressing is available for purchase. Get you a bottle for the house!

Oh wow! So glad to have this establishment! I don't like what the "national bowl restaurant"…read more supports so not giving them my money! This place is better, food looks fresh, they refill the line often so everything looks and tastes better. For the price I was extremely happy with the freshly made bowl I ordered. My items weren't plopped halfheartedly by a bored teenager. My guac completely filled my cup. (Compared to the other place). The staff was friendly and the facilities are clean. I understand their policy that delayed getting inside the bathroom. The area is full of unfortunate unhomed individuals. Therefore, to maintain a clean and healthy environment for customers, it has to be locked. I'm cautious about parking downtown, but I lucked up on a space right in front. Therefore, I didn't have to use their parking lot that's nearby. I was so happy with my first impulse visit, I will certainly return when I have time to review my options more. Sorry was in hurry forgot to take pictures and check in! No cooked many hours ago dried out chicken chunks here. Beans didn't look like brown glue either.

It was a breeze to get to the free parking lot , walk a block or so to get right to it! For the first time , I went over by the tent area since it wasnt layered with people. There's GFF merch, dessert, coffee, ice cream, wine & beer. Last but not least, there were pork kabobs and fries. OMG!!! The pork kabobs and fries were a nice little switch up from what I usually order. And SO good!!! I also had a beer ( of course) created by straight to ale specifically for the festival. I couldn't leave without getting some desserts and a Greek chicken meal to go. Coming on the first day was so relaxed and calm. No line , no waiting. The volunteers were ready to serve!!!! Hope yall attend and enjoy the 52nd annual GFF!!

We tried the Gyro, the Greek chicken plate, and the pork tenderloin kebab with Greek fries. The Guro was amazing! The Greek chicken was seasoned well and so is the rice. My daughter had the pork tenderloin kebab. She said it needed a little bit more flavor. The line of the food looked long, but it went by fast. Definitely a must try if you haven't been.

To save a little extra money, the kid's pita meal is often plenty of food. You get a pita filled with protein of your choice, along with grains and a few toppings. As for me, I got a bowl with falafel, greens, cucumber, corn, feta cheese, and with red pepper and regular hummus to dip. This is my go-to order and it hasn't let me down yet. I'd also recommend getting the pita chips if you'd like; they're perfectly crunchy with addictive seasoning sprinkled on top. This location (downtown Birmingham) is clean and the workers are quick. It's also right across from Publix, so it's a great place to refuel before getting your groceries.

Especially if you order delivery like DoorDash. I can't tell you how many times they have forgotten things. The chicken & salmon taste good but you just need more. The greens are usually fresh. The blueberry lemonade was very tart and not sweet at all. Overall I believe if they gave you more food it would be better. The inside of the store is very clean I will say.

We love this place - it is the best seafood place in Bham - the steamed crab claws are amazing !…read moreThe oysters are freshly flown in . I have not tried any other location in years - bc this place is always such a treat . I have tried some of the newer $$$$ seafood restaurants( bc my son wanted to go ) but I have always left disappointed. The fish market gets your food out hot & they do have great service , (this is why they're still in business.) I've been eating here at least 30 years - I like the casual ambiance & the oysters are to die for . In my humble opinion, this is the only place to get reliably great seafood ( & it has reasonable prices)

We must eaten there on a bad night all around because our review doesn't reflect what everyone else…read moreseemed to experience! We were seated promptly handed menus and about 30 seconds later approached by the waitress for drink orders. We asked for a drink menu as there was nothing to advertise what drinks they were serving. She returned with 1 drink menu for all 3 of us and stood there waiting until we decided. We asked for some time so she left and returned about 2 mins later. We ordered drinks and she returned 2 mins later to take our food order. We ordered appetizers, salad and main courses. The drinks came quickly, the salads came right after and then about 3 mins later, the appetizers came out. 3 mins after that, the main courses arrived so we had plates stacked everywhere on the table and quickly tried to finish our salads and appetizers before the main dish got cold. The waitress never returned to the table until she brought the bill. The plates were all cleared by someone else. We saw her leave a bill at the table next to us and wait until they checked it over and figured out a payment method, so when she arrived at our table we just handed her a credit card. The food was average but the overall experience was terrible. I realize she was probably new and this may have been her first night but some training would go a long way! For $180 dinner, we expected a lot more.
