I'd never been here before tonight, I'm glad I did. I ordered the lamb rice plate. It comes with a small salad, lamb pieces and very flavorful rice. The The tzikiki sauce was excellent. Halfway thru the meal, the guy comes out with Mediterranean tea, which I had to let cool off, but it was very nice. I am definitely going back. Word of warning, the sofa at the Table 11 is LOW, but very comfortable. read more

First off I almost passed the location by as I was unsure it was open. The driveway was a little hidden and run down. We walked in and although we could hear music from the patio we called out to get service. The inside is very swanky, more like a lounge and outside is more like a sports bar restaurant with misters going. The man who helped us was very nice and tried to steer us to the most fresh dishes. You order at the entrance and sit down. I did not enjoy the chicken on my gyro bowl, a little too dry. However my husband liked his lamb kebabs though. There was a man smoking a hookah inside who seemed to be enjoying it. They had some cakes in a case at the entrance, not made in house but the man at the counter said they were good. read more

The first time I tried their burger made me come back again, this time WITH my friends. Literally suggested them that they should try their food. Anyway, we got combo kabob. Sat outside on the patio, table were not cleaned. Got our food, the meat was not tender, and the rice didn't taste fresh. No condiments! Plastic utensils! Had to wait so long for the waiter to check on us to tell them switching them to metal cutlery. Ugh, just wasn't a good experience. read more

I love this spot, hands down is my go to spot for this kind of food. I usually DoorDash it because the staff honestly is kind of difficult to communicate with as they are young and give off the impression they really don't want to be there. But I always get the Gyro bowl and it never disappoints. They pack the bowl with so much rice and meat, I usually end up eating it over the course of two days because they give so much. Great flavor, quick service and always a reliable place to order from. read more

Critical me says, "give 4 stars." Why? Because the portion is too generous (lots of meat, big gyro, plenty of fries), I have a tough time wasting food, I know the fries & gyro will not reheat well, so I gorge. I'd much rather have a smaller portion and save $2. That's just me. Tonight was my first visit. A friendly young lady immediately greeted me when I walked in. Very polite, attentive and soft spoken. It was a breathe of fresh air. Lamb/beef gyro was ready in just over 5 minutes. The dill sour cream type sauce was wonderful and I used it for my fries. The fries were seasoned beautifully. After having fries at another spot nearby, the drive home makes them a little soggy. But they are still de-li-cious! I need a solution to get them home less soggy. Got ideas? I'll definitely return. Thank you wonderful Afghans. Oh, and it seems they offer hookah for anyone interested. And if you are a nonsmoker, but go to join hookah users, just $5. read more

Coworker: What is THAT? Me: Bolani. Try it. Coworker: Huh? Me: Bolani. Go ahead, try it. Coworker: (Tries a piece) Damn, that's good. Me: Exactly. You've probably driven past this little inconspicuous Mediterranean spot a hundred times and didn't realize what you are missing. Vegan items: Bolani, Dolma, Falafel, Hummus. All delicious and reasonably priced. I'd jump for joy if they added a vegan tzatziki sauce to go with that falafel though. This is such a welcomed addition to the Sac suburban food scene it's not even funny. Definitely give this place a try. read more

They are definitely still open for business and food service. They open at Noon. I haven't been in over a year because I thought they were closed. Of course due to inflation the price went up $4, which is understandable. If you ordered 1-2 yrs ago they used to spoil you with loads of meat now you get just enough but still a generous. place is still pretty good and the best in sac. The meat and fries are well seasoned. We got a beef/lamb gyro & a bowl. You get your bang for your buck if you get a bowl. Their renovations on the inside are beautiful and the vibe is cozy. Good and quick customer service as always. read more

We really liked this restaurant, we would like to go back there again. Beautiful presentation of the dish, everything was very tasty. Pleasant music and atmosphere read more

Incredible food + kind service. Everything we ordered off the menu came out amazingly, full of unique flavor and high quality ingredients that made a positive lasting impression. Very affordable and fairly priced as well! My family and I loved the gyro greek pizza, grilled chicken gyro wrap with garlic fries, tikka kabob dish that came with side salad and seasoned rice, beef lamb gyro nachos for appetizer, and the mango habanero wings. Everything was prepared beautifully. We enjoyed everything we tried and we will be back for sure! read more

Ariana Gyros & Kabobs - Everything is so good even the bread - Mediterranean Near Me - Carmichael, California

I wouldn't call them gyros, more like shawarma. The meat was chopped. The worst part was the lady pronounced it Guy-row... Really! The portion was good size on the gyro and was tasty. But didn't sit well in my tummy. They offer is in 3 levels of spicy. The hubby had it medium and enjoyed it. The dolmas were mushy and not much flavor in the filling. They may need to tweet their food still. read more

Ariana Gyros & Kabobs - Mmmmm middle eastern desserts! - Mediterranean Near Me - Carmichael, California

Came here a couple of times before quarantine and nothing has wowed me. I've tried their Elk Grove location before and thought it was good so I when I saw there was one here, I had to get the bolani again. It wasn't as good as I remembered it to be. I've tried their wrap and gyro and bf got the Philly cheese steak and a plate. The plate wasn't bad. Food here was average and also they are quite slow when making the food. It was like a 25 min wait. read more

Stopped by a couple months ago and finally getting around to making a post. I can't remember what I originally ordered, but it wasn't available and they offered an alternative which was the chicken kabob and I am glad they mentioned it because it was great. Also, the hookah and service were also decent and better priced than some other spots. Not to mention, the patio is a nice touch. I can tell this place garners some regulars too, which is a good sign to me. Definitely worth checking out and supporting this local business. read more

I'm so behind with my reviews and finally taking some time to leave some feedback on some places I've tried the past 4-6 months. Today's review is for Ariana Gyros & Kabobs. They're located in Carmichael off 7336 Fair Oaks Blvd across the street from McDonalds. Ariana Gyros have been at this location about 6 months which hasn't been that long. This place is easy to miss if you don't pay attention where to your driving. In my opinion is not the best location business or parking wise. But where they lack the great location food makes up for it. Their food is excellent. I've ate here about 6 times already and not once was disappointed. Everything is great from their gyros to chicken bowl. Definitely worth trying! You won't be disappointed! My three favorite meals are Bolani, Beef/Lamb Gyro Bowl and Beef/Lamb Gyro Wrap.

What a wonderful delicious surprise. I have been in the mood for Gyro for quite some time. Tonight we yelped the nearest gyro and Ariana's came up in our search and was really close to home. The place was empty and attached to a hookah lounge. There was no hookah in the dining area, only outside. We walked in and it was very bland inside. A pool table. Large empty seating area. A rug hanging over four chairs. We stepped up to the counter and ordered a Gyro bowl, a chicken kabob plate and two cans of Pepsi. We sat nervously waiting for our food. The tables needed cleaning the garbage cans needed to be emptied. It was cold. Several people walked in for pick up. A few walked in to sit outside and enjoy hookah. The food arrived in styrofoam togo containers. Fresh, Hot, Tender, Generous portions and absolutely delicious! I saved half of my gyro bowl because I wanted my daughter to try it. When we got home she absolutely loved it!! The sauces served with dinner were so light and delicious and a perfect complement to the dishes. After speaking with the person at the counter. They opened late in 2019. Then Covid hit and they were shut down for 6 months. Which might explain the emptiness of the dinning area. They opened up again for delivery only and now are opened for dine in from 4pm to 10 pm. I serious am thinking about going back tomorrow. A wonderful surprise that did not disappoint!!! I highly recommend!!! read more

Went here for hookah the other day - smoked wonderfully and the service was great. I ordered food to go, combo plate, bolani, gyro and philly cheese steak sandwich, everything was delicious. Highly recommend this place. read more

Ariana Gyros & Kabobs - a meal in a styrofoam container - Mediterranean Near Me - Carmichael, California

Love their medium lamb gyros! Tried #8 & #10 with Lamb/Beef meat and tasted super delicious. Customer service is great and the garlic fries are legit! Prices are very affordable. This place is definitely a hidden gem that I found randomly on Yelp and to find out after talking to the lady at cashier that they just opened 1-2 months ago. I don't think there are any other Kabob/Gyro places in Carmichael this good so this place automatically wins the title for best :) read more

Ariana Gyros & Kabobs - Number 10 gyro wrap with Beef/Lamb. Yum - Mediterranean Near Me - Carmichael, California

This place did not wow me. I think the food is mediocre at best. Food is pretty bland. And wait time for food is about 20 to 25 mins. I am only giving it 3 stars because the food portion is good. However, their menu pictures and descriptions are deceiving. My dish did not taste how it was described to be. Their EG location was what got me here but I won't be coming back to this location. Hopefully the EG location's food has not changed. I recommend getting Mediterranean food somewhere else. read more

Slim pickings at home so the three of us headed to Ariana to give this fairly new restaurant a try. We had the dolmas to start which were served warm - a first for me but very flavorful. Much softer warm too. We had the triple humus which was great with the pita to share. A lamb/beef gyro, a chicken gyro, and I had a falafel pita. All the food was very good but the beef/lamb gyro was exceptional. On the basis of the quality and fair pricing of the food this place rates 5 stars. However, the ice water container was empty after getting half filled cups which I secured by reaching over the counter since there were only 2 by the water. Also, there were no forks in the containers and the knife they brought to me had some kind of black spot on it which I wiped off with my napkin. Once they address these minor issues, this place will be 5 star! read more

Ariana Gyros & Kabobs - Beware of Hair!!! - Mediterranean Near Me - Carmichael, California

This is it. I've searched for a while for great tasting kabobs in Sac and I've found it. Just incredible. I got a Full Combo of Chapli Kabobs and Gyros with rice- I subbed the salad for extra rice. The amount of meat and rice you get is worth the price. Order it hot and fresh to dine in. I ordered to go but once I smelled it I had to sit down right there to eat. Chapli kabob- when I received the food in front of me I could tell from the smell I was about to taste amazing. Warning it's got a kick to it- the rice and yogurt help. Gyro- got it medium spicy- really good flavor and good cuts off meat from the skewer. One of the better gyros I've tried in town. Really nice young couple opened this location several months ago, they have an Elk Grove locations which has been around for years. Hookah lounge open until midnight. Can get busy on weekends for this- call to reserve a table. Tip: Hard to find because sign is hidden, drive slow when near otherwise you'll have to make a U turn read more

Waiting time is about 35 to 50 min when they bring your order the food is already cold and not hot temperature. They mixed up our order to different table order . so we have to wait another 30 min to they make out order . it's really bad service. Not recommend read more

Barely noticed this place on Fair Oaks after passing it 100s of times. The outside is uninviting; dead plants line the driveway. And you walk in, and it feels like an office with a lot of chairs. Decor is pretty sparse all around, with the exception of some posters of old world scenes. Hand-written signage and what appears to be second-hand cash register, and not much else going on. There appears to be an outside hookah lounge in the back; was totally deserted except for a few guys sitting around. To the food. It was fine -- had the falafel and some red hummus dip. Falafel has a slightly different taste to it (a good one) and the pita was stuffed with lettuce and tomato. The hummus came with some nice bread. Reasonably priced (6.99) for the sandwich. No complaints but a little touch of love and taste could make this a winner. read more

I'll let the picture speak for it self, very flavor, soft pita and fresh salad, excited to try the falafels next time read more

What a great spot! Counter-service with a more upscale vibe than your typical gyros spot. I got the gyros sandwich with a salad, and both items were delicious. They asked mild, medium, or spicy for the gyros, and I went for the medium, which had a nice bit of heat without being overpowering at all. My meal was served with a squeeze bottle of white sauce as well as a wedge of lime-- not something I've seen often with gyros, but I really liked the lime with it. Service was also friendly and professional. They have a nice patio in the front as well as a large outdoor area, which serves also as a hookah lounge in the evenings-- but food is available there as well, according to the cashier. I was impressed by the quality of the food, the service, and the atmosphere here, and I definitely will return to try out more of their menu, as well as making this my new spot for a gyros fix. If you're in the area, give this place a try. You won't be disappointed! read more

Another great yelp Find. I'm excited to find a local gyro spot and pretty reasonable pricing. Portion size is great, and the taste is on point and very tender, and the flavors make you mouth do the happy dance. Well worth giving it a try. They have many options from Kabob and gyros to Burgers. They also have a kids many so don't be afraid to bring the little one. There is so much to try I will be back here for sure. read more

Best gyro in CARMICHAEL. They also have a gyro wrap that was amazing. It's like a gyro burrito. I Highly recommend trying it. They also serve gyro bowls. I got one for the kids and they crushed it. I will definitely be returning soon. read more

Ordered the chicken bowl over lettuce instead of rice. The chicken was flavorful and spicy as requested but overall my entree lacked produce with to me was a huge disappointment. It came with a few pieces of lettuce and one small slice of tomato. Some might appreciate it's generous with chicken but I prefer a more balanced plate. Small details they can improve on - they refill ketchup bottles with cheap bulk variety and the bottles have the labels peeled off from being used repeatedly. They have great potential and have great things going for them, just hate to see them cutting corners and compromising overall quality. I do recommend the chicken, and think the gyro would be delicious here. read more

An excellent find by accident. We wanted kabobs and most of our usual restaurants were closed. Stopped here. They have a location in Elk Grove but this one few but excellent reviews. The ground beef kabobs are outstanding. More like patties their spice combination was outstanding and they came out freshly made and hot. Spicy hot. And outstanding. The beef cubes are tri tip and marinated for 48 hours and it tastes like it! Rice is great. Try the bread with hummus. All was great and don't come here unless you want a five star meal! We shall return. read more

It was quiet for a Friday night, but they just opened two weeks ago and it's a little hidden in there. The service was great for me and my son.
