★★★★★ 5.0 Terrie Bosarge · Feb 2026

Best falafel, gyro plate and hummus I’ve had in a very long time!! 10/10!!!! Will always recommend.

★★★★★ 5.0 Wyatt Rees · Oct 2025

I work nearby and go here once a week, and that is always my favorite day for lunch. Everything I have gotten here is good, my favorites are chicken or gyro salad and the beef shwarma or falafel pita. The ingredients are high quality and delicious and you can add a lot of toppings to whatever you get. The portions aren't massive, but the value is still probably the best of any middle eastern restaurant in Birmingham, and the food is better too. Service is friendly and helpful too.

★★★★★ 5.0 Megan McNally · May 2025

This place is fantastic! Small but man the food is worth the stop. Got the chicken shawarma and gyro over rice and some picked and red cabbage, hummus and Jerusalem salad. My friends and I already want to go back for more! Staff were lovely and gave me good recommendations :)

★★★★★ 5.0 Vishal Sarvaiya · Oct 2025

Absolutely the best falafel I’ve ever had! Everything is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. It’s a great spot for anyone looking for delicious vegetarian meals — plenty of healthy and satisfying options. The portions are generous, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy. Highly recommend this place if you love authentic Mediterranean flavors!

★★★★★ 5.0 Johnna White · Oct 2025

I moved out of state and got to visit today and was so thankful they were open because every bite felt like my life was changing. It’s just the best falafel wrap I could ask for. Also, you can’t even get French fries like this in Mississippi. They were so delicious. I first tried this place roughly 9 years ago and I have never been disappointed. I’ll be craving them again in.. mm.. 3 hours.
