So I was looking for something light and refreshing and you can never go wrong with good old greek salad. We had the lentil soup. Also the Greek salad with gyro meat. Service was really fast and very friendly. And the ambiance fell like it was homey. I would recommend. read more

Staple spot for me. Delicious, high quality Mediterranean. Large portions at a fair price. I love the choice shawarma salad. Counter service but plenty of seating. Good soft drink and Turkish candy bar selection. read more

Byblos - $3.00 for 4 cucumbers cut in half - Mediterranean Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Byblos is FANTASTIC. It's cheap, it's absolutely delicious, and the portions are large! This is perfect if you want Mediterranean food, but don't have an arm and a leg to sell that day. When you walk in, you'll notice it's both a spacious store and casual eatery. There's plenty of tables and seating to dine in, but it's a "no frills" kind of place, with no waitresses or waiters. They'll call you up, and you bring your food to the table yourself. Honestly, I prefer it this way. Another thing you might notice is that this place is CLEAN. The floors are clean, the shelves are organized, the hot foods area is immaculate, I saw zero bugs, the tables are neat, etc. A lot of casual eateries look a little messy, but this place seems to have great hygiene. I'm telling you, you have to try the food. It's PHENOMENAL the quality you get with this price. You cannot get such cheap delicious Mediterranean food anywhere else in this city. So many places are delicious, but expensive. Not here! It's so yummy and affordable with great portions. We've tried a good amount of items and I would recommend the: *Chicken shawarma or kabob plate - The chicken is perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and smoky. The rice is flavorful and fluffy. Both the hummus and tzatziki sauce are delicious. The salad is fresh and comes with a yummy light dressing that contains purple-ish spices I can't seem to identify, but love anyway. *Stuffed grape leaves - They offer both beef and vegetarian ones here, so options for everyone! I've tried both, but I personally like the vegetarian ones better, and although I don't know what's in them, I can attest that they're amazing. They're addicting, and you'd be temped to over eat way too much if you dine in. Aside from these items, they have a lot of dishes to offer as well as daily specials, I recommend just going in and checking them out. I promise you won't be disappointed. read more

Byblos - Chicken shawarma plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Some of the best gyros you've ever had, hummus spot on and grape leafs to die fa, quick service, fair prices, old school atmosphere....

Service at the place is horrible. Went to pick up my order and the man was blatantly rude to me but nice to the person in line before me. This left a bad taste in my mouth and will not be patronizing this place again. read more

Very unique grocery store and very good restaurant. Food is very fresh with a wide variety for lots of different people. Great for Greek food lovers and very tasty baklava read more

I like Byblos. I usually go alone and sit at the bar. The bar is pretty stocked and service is very quick. Today I was hungry and didn't want to drink. I only had sparkling water with lemon (euro style). I ordered the bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer, chicken shawarma plate w/ hummus and sauteed vegetables. While I was eating the complimentary pita bread and olive oil, the bartender told me about the sauces the chef makes. He brought me a little of the chili seasoning sauce. I enjoyed it with my shrimp, in my hummus and mixed into the sauteed vegetables. It was really good. Byblos is a nice casual spot with a full bar and outdoor seating. read more

This is a tasty spot with good prices! We started off with the Falafel, Meat Grape Leaves and Drunken Halloumi. All of them were delicious. For our entrée we split the Shawarma plate with hummus and tabbouleh. The meat was really tender. The hummus could have been a little more flavorful but it was still good! They have good service and plenty of parking (at least on a Wednesday night!) read more

Absolutely LOVE this place!!!! Service is always great! The food gosh the food is absolutely amazing! The gyro plate is huge and full of flavor! A must go to every time I'm in town! read more

Byblos is a local chain with a couple of different outlets throughout the city serving mediterranean food. we normally go to byblos market standard order is the gyro sandwich which is the gyro sandwich served with salad and hummus (or baba ganoush). we normally get this because the meat is really good, tender, and apparently some of the best tasting gyro in the city. they have other food including a lot of sides so well each time we try something a little different. this time we tried the meat pie which was also told was really good and better than other places. we have tried other sides which weren't as good (the spinach pie - too greasy) but overall each food has been decent with good flavors and decent portion size read more

Byblos - gyro sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

This is the same food you can get at the Byblos restaurants for a cheaper price and larger portions. Some of the food certainly gets up to four stars but on average it is about a three star place. It is also a market that has all sorts of interesting middle eastern grocery items that you can't really find anywhere else in the area. It is like a cafeteria style dining arrangement where you order your food or you can choose things from the hot plates. Most of the things I've gotten from the hot plates haven't been as good as in the restaurant so I usually go for one of the plate specials and those are almost always good. The stuffed lamb plate was one special that I didn't care for as it was just lamb mixed with a bunch of rice and I missed my salad and hummus that comes with most of the other plate specials. You get a lot of food here so it is a great value and an easy place for a quick lunch. It is also right next to the Black & Gold store so you can grab some Saints gear and get ready for the game before or after lunch!!! Byblos video review: https://youtu.be/QUQbhgE0NRs read more

Ordered from here via Uber eats. Food arrived and it was CHARRED!!! The chicken is so thin and dry and charred. I couldn't eat it. It's like they have me what's been sitting there over night. I had to throw it in the trash. Only one piece of pita too. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!! read more

Byblos - DRY AF AND BURNT!!! - Mediterranean Near Me - Metairie, Louisiana

Food was delicious. Ambiance was lovely. Our server was a jerk. (Two out of three ain't bad) He offered a "to go boxes" about 2 bites into our meal. When I told him I felt that we were being rushed out of a half empty restaurant, he didn't come back to the table for a looooong time. I stacked the plates for him-as I, too have worked in the service industry for a long tome. And he didn't really come back to our table. The chicken shawarma was amazing. The hummus was great. The food was wonderful. But the server was trying so hard to be aloof and cool that it was more comedic than offensive. Great service can make a mediocre meal a wonderful experience. This dude made a fabulous meal a waste of money and time. Host was fabulous; food was great. All this to say: Byblos is an excellent Uber eats opportunity. read more

This is the best Chicken Shawarma in the New Orleans area. Mason and the rest of the staff do it right, every time, and have been consistently bringing me joy through their food for years. This is a great counter service restaurant for a business lunch or lunch with a friend as well. There's plenty of seating and lots of options in the grocery area as well. To me, this is also the best of all the Byblos locations - by far. read more

By far the best Mediterranean food in the Nola area! Been coming her for a few years and it's always consistent! People that work here are great as well! read more

Wow what a find. The best gyro and chicken shawarma in town. This place is legit as you walk in and see the huge hunks of meat being fire roasted on the turning tables. I get the gyro or chicken salad. The salad is a delicious Greek style salad with a great dressing and feta cheese crumbles omg. On the hot bar there are all kinds of vegetable side dishes that look absolutely delicious as well. This is my go-to lunch spot when in Metry. I go at least once a week. read more

My husband and I got a meat pie, falafel, a halloumi wrap and a kafta kabob wrap. The meat pie tasted good but needed to be fried/cooked longer. The falafel and wraps were outstanding. Worth a visit and a return trip! read more

Yum! I was searching for a quick bite to grab during my lunch break and came upon this gem. I got the combination plate. Personally, I would skip the chicken as it was dry but gyro was delish. The side salad, the hummus, the yogurt sauce were all bomb dot com. The rice had strange little noodles in it but it was delicious. I've never seen anything like that. The portion was extremely generous as well. I will be back. read more

I've tried a lot of different things here- the chicken & steak kebabs are delicious, gyro and chicken shawarma are the best in town. I always order the garlic sauce (amazing) and some pita on the side. I wish the guy behind the counter spoke better English because he's really funny and friendly. Prices are fair. This is your spot if you want good food fast! read more

My wife and I love the food, and usually eat here twice a week. Friendly, prompt service. But the food is what stands out. The beef is delicious, as well as the chicken shawarma and chicken kabob. The hummus is the best in town. Their lentils and lentil soup are top notch. Don't forget to finish with the baklava. It's consistently good, and one of our favorite restaurants. read more

Jeni Awesome and I met for our sister lunch. It was such a cool place. The staff was amazing and the food was delicious.

It was clean. I will definitely go back. read more

Prices need updating on the website. Portions are appropriate for the price I paid but I was surprised at the ticket. I ordered what I thought was lunch for 2 - it was $50 but it turned into 4 meals and party appetizers. So $10 per portion was about right. Hummus is really good. Gyros is good when it is fresh. read more
