    Braised lamb was soupy and not very tasty. Steak was very chewy and gristly. Pita bread size and texture a home run. 2 scoops dip too much. Pita fell apart midway. I hope it improvs. Great concept. Poorly trained staff. Ambiance ok. Kinda themeless

    We are so excited to have a Cava in town. I love everything I have tried. Service is quick and the staff was nice. The location was busy. My only complaint it felt a bit warm inside. Hopefully that is addressed. I can only imagine in the peak of summer!

    Located on SR200 next to Rooms To Go.

    We love falafel, so my wife got the Falafel Crunch Bowl and I got the Crispy Falafel Pita. Both were very good. The ingredients and sauces were delicious. I also got to taste one lamb meatball--very good. We will return and with more familiarity we will build our own entrees rather than use the suggested combinations. There is a plethora of ingredients and sauces to experiment with. Next time I will definitely order the Spicy Lamb and Avocado Bowl. My wife said she will order the falafel again in some form. The restaurant had just opened for the day and it was spotlessly clean. The store is new. Open only a month. Some employees seemed to still be in training. My only caution concerns the falafel. Cavas falafel is tasty, but once cooked it must be served almost immediately. It doesn't do well on the steam table. Make sure yours is fresh.

    Only reason why the rating is so low is that the food and portion size vary A LOT. I could go one day and have the food be the best I've ever tasted and the next everything be overly salted or bland. The amount of food provided also varies to such a degree that on some days it looks like I ordered double rice and meat, and other days it looks like I ordered a half portion of both which makes it incredibly frustrating when ordering here. This day was one of the stingiest days I ever had the displeasure to experience. Literally saw them shake out some food as they were filling my bowl and had chipotle flashbacks. All the toppings were very bland, but the grilled chicken was admittedly seasoned perfectly. Used to love the harissa chicken but after one time of having it taste like it was dunked in straight honey I can not eat it again. Affordable priced which is the only reason I risk coming back every time but this is not someplace where I can confidently recommend to people. Go at your own risk.

    The wife and I were shopping in the area and were excited to try out The Great Greek Mediterranean…read moreGrill today, a Thursday around 11am. When we walked in the door there were no customers but a couple of employees at the counter putting together orders. We walked up to the counter to browse the menu. We could tell there must have been some large orders come in as the employees seemed very busy working with their backs to us. Apparently so busy that they didn't think to say, "Hi", or "Welcome in!"- literally said nothing to us. I asked my wife loud enough for the workers to hear, "Are we ready to order? and she replied "Yes" for them loud enough to hear. Still, that wasn't enough to get the workers to stop what they were doing to help us with our orders, so we walked over to the self-serve kiosk to get our orders in. We considered dining in but weren't sure how long it would take, so we ordered as Take out to be on the safe side. I clicked the button for a printed receipt but couldn't figure out where it printed after I did that. We decided to go sit down. At this point we had been there about 10 minutes with zero acknowledgement from the employees working. I've worked in the service industry before (and continue to do so in a corporate environment), so I understand what a rush is like but I also understand that you're to make customers/clients feel welcome and heard- neither of which we felt at The (Not) Great Greek Mediterranean Grill. As we waited, other customers were coming in. Seemed like some regulars and others didn't seem to have as much trouble getting the employees to communicate with them. Another 10 mins or so go by and I started to notice about 4 different people receiving their orders who had come in after us, so I went to the counter to ask the status on ours. The female employee seemed irritated that my question pulled her away from what she was doing but she looked up our orders anyway. Said ours would be up in a few mins, so I said thanks and I let her know that I clicked "Print receipt" on the kiosk but wasn't sure where I was supposed to get it. She pointed to where it was supposed to come out but it wasn't there and shrugged. I said ok, and sat back down with my wife to wait for our food. At this point, I was irritated with the service and didn't want to dine in anymore. We got our food and left. I received a text to share my experience, and I shared what I'm writing here with the restaurant mgr or owner. I received a text back that they were sorry that my wife and I didn't feel welcomed or acknowledged during our visit. The mgr or owner mentioned it was disappointing that the kiosk and service didn't meet our expectations. They did say they appreciated the feedback, so they could improve and would love the chance to provide better care that we deserve in the future. Maybe I'm being too critical/out of line but if that was my business, I would offer a free lunch or something of value to try and make it right. I let them know that too. We go to restaurants for good food, good service, and good people. When someone has a bad experience, I'd be doing whatever I could to earn that business back. This is not a place we are planning on going back to.

    We tried a few meals from their menu and everything tasted so good! The mix plate for 2 was perfect…read morefor two, lets you try a little bit of everything, and super filling. Nothing was greasy and everything was seasoned well. This was my first time trying lamb and honestly I couldn't even tell which is a huge plus for me (it wasn't gamey at all). I had a piece of their Dubai chocolate and wow, the cake part was super moist and rich! Also tried a little bit of their lentil soup with a warm pita bread, a little bit of ice cream and baklava from my family's plate since I was too full to order my own and everything was perfection. The best part is you don't get that gross feeling after eating because everything was so clean/fresh. Lastly, the owner was super friendly and attentive. We will definitely be coming back! 2/22/26

    You desperately need a vacation, but have neither the time nor the money to head out. What to do,…read morewhat to do. My recommendation? Take a long lunch hour at Istanbul, located at 488 S. Yong St. in Ormond Beach. (Across from Mario's.) It will leave you feeling relaxed, nourished, and as though you've been ambling along the banks of the Bosphorus in Istanbul, Turkey. The food is absolutely delicious, and your host will make you feel very welcome. Also.....DO NOT leave without savoring a plate of their homemade baklava, served with goat's milk ice cream. Some of the best we've had anywhere in the world! As a side note, the pricing is very good. $12.99 will get you a delicious lunch with sides and beverage. Highly recommend.
