    Shrimp scampi  and broccoli over thin spaghetti.    Extra shrimp added on request.
    Paul C.

    Quiet relaxed atmosphere and not rushed. Friendly owners. who make you feel welcome. For a small diner, care is given to keep the food fresh and presented well. This dish was a special request variation of the Shrimps Scampi dinner offered on the menu. I asked for the scampi shrimp to be served over spaghetti with a few extra shrimp added upon my special request. Broccoli , dded by the owner chef, made the eye appeal enticing.

    Pastitsio!  Yummy!

    We were passing through and saw the sign and went in for lunch. Tatiana, the owner's wife greeted us warmly. The food was excellent! I had the Pastitsio, which is Greek lasagna and my wife had the Gyro Chicken Wrap. The dining room and tables were clean and inviting. Judging from the crowd that was there, this establishment is popular with the locals and that's always a good sign! I recommend this restaurant highly.

    My mom and I came in one morning before I had to go to the airport I had the Spinach, onions, tomato, ham and cheese omelet. The omelet was brown and well done. I feel unless you ask for your eggs well done or soft / easy they should not be brown or runny. They should be cooked just normal. The omelet had what it said it had but the cheese on top had hardly melted for eggs that were so well done. As far as getting service there was only 1 other booth in the back with 2 men. The waitress must have known them because she stood there talking to them for a good few minutes after we sat. When we went to pay we stood at the register for no less than 5 minutes. The cook finally came out and took our money because the waitress was too busy talking to the last booth. This place is under its 3rd ownership. With the quality of food and their pricing I dont see them lasting either. My omelet was $12.95 on their special Monday - Friday menu. My suggestion based on knowing the history of this place. Lower the prices a bit and you might get the crowd in you need to stay in business. A veggie omelet at the Coram Pond is only $9.95 every day!

    Being home cooking for a few weeks during the quarantine makes you a bit crazy in search of different foods and flavors. We tried this place for the first time and it didn't disappoint. We got the family meal at a great price point. The gyro meat was perfectly cooked and not too salty like some other places. The salad was beautifully presented and chickpea side was a nice touch. Highly recommend.

    Meet lover and delux breakfast, it was so yummy

He had to wait over 20 mins for them to "cook more" only for the young server to forget to bring it back the two times we asked her for it. The pretzel app came with beer cheese sauce that had the same texture as sand. It was inedible. The only good app was the boom boom wings. Couple in that terrible start of our experience to our apps coming the same time as our entrees. With my meal coming about 10 minutes before my boyfriends but minutes after the young staff dropped the apps. So we couldn't even enjoy the wings without our entrees being cold. Server was also slow. Idk if it's because they have all young staff and no supervisors or managers but it was bad. Had to ask multiple times for refills on our water when that was my only drink bc I couldn't stomach the refrigerator tasting martini. My food was lackluster and watery (pasta). Terrible waste of a date night and hefty bill.

    Eat Unique Indeed…read more We were famished for something brunchy this past Sunday, and were looking at different places to go to. Went to the Watermark, parking lot was inaccessible, seems people don't know how to park over there. Even the street spaces were full. We headed further west, Flying Pig was closed down, we had been to Crazy Beans, then a quick Google search pulled up a spot we'd never heard of before. Pulled up to a strip mall where BlackSheep was located, nice big parking lot as expected. Walked in, and we were the first ones there. The place smelled fantastic. We sat ourselves and perused the menu. The server came by and enumerated the specials, but I was fixated on Braise your Belly. We also got me-mah's mac and cheese, and started off with the Roasted Garlic Northern Bean Dip and the Minestrone soup. The Bean Dip starter was fantastic. All the little things you need for a perfect bite. A scoop of bean dip on a toasted pita wedge, stick a couple of kalamata olives on the bean dip mortar (3 olives were too much), add pickled red onion and fire-roasted peppers, then top with crumbled feta. Amazing bite. I had a taste of the Minestrone, and it was excellent. Flavors were all there without being overdone. The pasta was nice and cooked just right. The mac and cheese was perfect. I couldn't put my finger on the cheeses used, but it all came together nicely. You didn't just get a mouthful of one cheese flavor. It was creamy, balanced, and the crispy onions on top made it really nice. and the stunner. I am a big fan of pork belly, and this really piqued my interest. Served with lemongrass grits and pickled veg with a soy miso glaze. The pickled veg was tossed in a bed of leafy greens, and I saw some seaweed salad in there as well. A little bite of the grits topped with the salad was amazing. I've never had that combo before. A little tart, a little salty, nice umami, I could have eaten a bowl of just that. However, when the pork belly came into play, everything changed. The crisped, lightly charred crust on the fatty slices of nirvana by themselves were perfect. Cut a piece of it and lay it on the grits-salad bite, and you can feel your eyes roll backwards. I wanted to, and almost ate it all, but I left a slice for my girlfriend and topped off her little bit of mac and cheese that she wanted to take home. Half an hour in, and the place pretty much packed out for a bit while they were doing a healthy amount of takeout/pickup orders. The place is pretty simple: interesting Black Sheep art, with mostly little tables, plasticware, and a drinks cooler. The food can certainly be right at home in a fancier and upscale setting, but doesn't need it. They had one server, and she was delightful and attentive to everyone. The chef came around and asked how everything was, which I find is always a nice touch. Definitely coming back.

This place is straight up cheating people and forcing them to buy sides and beverages. Buying an expensive burger I guess wasn't enough. The burger was mediocre and tasted like they threw a slop of multiple flavors all at once. Their side dipping sauce which was some maple concoction. Disgusting. The only decent thing was the sweet potato fries. The strawberry iced tea they claimed to be sweet was about as sweet as lettuce. Very disappointing slop. Could not even put bacon correctly on the burger. Crave burger? Well now I no longer have a craving. Never before, never again.

    Crave Burger! I had a craving for a burger and decided to try Crave Burger (see what I just did…read morethere?) and I was so glad I did! I got the Beast Style combo with the fries (Beast fries? All I know is that they were seasoned and delish). The combo came with a fountain soda, which is my fave type of soda (and I'm not much of a soda drinker so it was It was delightful and delicious!). The burger was tasty and seasoned to perfection and I'm craving one right now as I write this. I devoured everything before I even had the chance to take photos, that's how ravenous I was and how good the burger was. As a side note I ordered through Uber Eats and everything was packaged great and hot and fresh. Thumbs up to Crave Burger bc you left me wanting more!
