Delicious Mediterranean food, generous portions, good service, average prices. I had a chicken bowl and my friend had a braised lamb bowl, both were very good. You can choose white, brown or yellow rice, then add greens, meet, sauces (in the bowl or on the side). When we asked to add one stuffed grape leaf, they did not charge us for it. There is also an option to add a pita version instead of a bowl. Overall we enjoyed our time here and highly recommend it to everyone who likes Mediterranean food. Thank you!

Really awful experience. The chicken shawarma was so dried out it was almost inedible/unchewable. Partner's lamb was also dry and overcooked. Using the kiosk to order, requested extra "cilantro potato"... we counted six 1/2-inch sized pieces of potato in each of our bowls. Garlic fries undercooked - soggy, pale, and lukewarm on the bottom. Mint lemonade lukewarm. Also had trouble finding a seat in an almost empty restaurant.... because the tables hadn't been cleaned in hours. I just hope we don't get sick from the little we ate.

Staying nearby and wanted something easy and fresh for dinner, this place did not disappoint. The workers were so kind, and the food was delicious! We did a build your own bowl the process was super easy would highly recommend

Very very happy. I’ve never been here before. I was a little intimidated but the assembly line but they made it simple. Everything was so so good. The pistachio baklava is so delicious. The lamb was moist and yum.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Kevin Cook · Feb 2026

Food was excellent, and plenty of it. Set up sort of like a Subway. Go down the aisle and tell them what you want. My only complaint was the cost. $43 for two bowls and 2 drinks. A can of flavored seltzer water was over $3. Still a fantastic meal.
