I’ve brought so many friends here and recommended it to countless people because it’s just that good—hands down the best Mediterranean restaurant in the area! I get the beef gyro plate each time I come, and it hits every single time. Everything pairs perfectly together—it’s a flavor explosion 🤭 It’s mainly a takeout spot, but there is a small covered area where you can eat, along with a couple of benches outside. It might be a little cold right now, but it’s a decent setup once the weather warms up. I already look forward to the next time I’ll be back for it again!! 10/10 recommend!

TLDR; this is undoubtedly one of the best gyro and falafel places in the city We tried the veggie plate and the beef gyro plate, and let me just say this is move value for your money. Absolutely everything is very well done - the hummus is creamy and smooth, the salad and tzatziki is so fresh, the falafels don’t taste greasy at all and are super crunchy, the dolma that comes with the veggie plate were delicious too. What surprised me most though was the bulgur - very flavorful!! Their portion sizes are enormous really.

Goodarz in wonderful and the food is amazing. The dough is well risen and you can tell it's been fermented for a long time, maybe could be more flavorful but the texture is amazing on the pizza. The kabob as insane though! Juiciest koobideh I've had in the US. Rice has lots of saffron and is cooked perfectly and the grilled tomatoes are just wonderful!

Just got to Ballard & arrived hungry! Did some research & found this spot, which had amazing reviews …. So we had to try it! We ordered the chicken kabob platter, gyro, and chicken gyro platter. ALL WERE EXCELLENT …. FRESH …. Flavorful & healthy! Absolutely A MUST! We will be back!

I got so lucky finding this gem! Seriously great food, I tried the chicken pizza and it may be the best pizza ever, without question the crust is hands down best 👌 A very comfortable shelter to sit, and the other customers were a treat to chat with. Overall a great meal and experience.
