I had never been here before, but I was in the area and it was raining really badly, so I figured I'd give this place a try before driving home. I saw that they had great reviews, and I'm so glad I stopped! I ordered the chicken platter, and let me just say... the food ain't make it home because I absolutely DEVOURED it ! The chicken was cooked absolutely perfectly, and the rice was so soft and perfectly prepared. The salad dressing was also SO flavorful! Honestly, this is some of the best Mediterranean food I've had in Cincinnati. On top of the amazing food, the service was incredibly warm and hospitable. You can really tell this is a family-run business that cares about their customers and the food they serve. 10/10 -- I'll definitely be back!

Been eyeing this place for a while and finally made it out. Mediterranean is one of mine and my…read morewife's favorite cuisines, but haven't loved a lot of other places we've visited. Made it out here last night before seeing Pericles at Cincinnati Shakespeare Company. We ordered a couple waters, which we didn't realize would be bottled, and some dawali to start. The wait was very short, maybe ten minutes. These were definitely the best stuffed grape leaves I've had, with a sweet and tangy sauce. Nice light appetizer. For our entrees, she chose the falafel platter, and I went for the Arayes, which is a dish we've made a couple times at home recently and has become a favorite. These plates arrived only a minute or two after we finished the grape leaves, so perfect timing. I must say, everything looked incredible. We both took a bite of falafel, then the arayes, then the salad. Everything was very undersalted. Usually, I think of this as a huge strike against a restaurant, but once we added salt to everything, the flavors popped. It wasn't that the food was bland or unseasoned, it was just undersalted, which didn't help the flavors stand out. This is the main reason I did 4 stars instead of 5. The entrees were $18, and came with a big bed of rice and salad, but I felt the protein for each platter was a bit sparse: 5 falafel for the plate, and 5 arayes, which had a very thin patty of meat in each. Both were topped with a delicious cilantro-tahini (I think) sauce, that i would have liked a bit more of, for the sides and the arayes which were on the bottom. The water bottles were $1.50 each, so I'd probably bring our own next time, but that's not a big deal. Overall, most of my issues are small and nitpick except for the salt, so if that was nailed next time, I think this place would be a home run.

If you are looking for fast soul food, this place deserves a try. Some of my former co-workers…read morespoke about this place repeatedly regarding the quality, quantity, and value of the food. I agree with their rave, however, my lunchtime experiences were not the best. I would often stop to pick up lunch on my way to work, and there was often a line of customers who apparently had the same idea. The staff did not serve with a sense of urgency. The customers didn't seem to mind, which is unfortunate because that implies acceptance of the level of service. I haven't been in a while, but I hope they improvement the customer care & service because their food is really good.

Unbelievably Cheap! I expected to see Going-Out-of-Business signs posted somewhere…read more A notable example, Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cheerios were their doorbuster cereal at a dollar per box. I was next door and remembered I needed onions and salad. Ignore the 60's era design and decor motif, it's actually clean and orderly in there. They offer a lot of store brands and not very much produce, but they had organic spring mixes, two carton options of them, both on sale for a dollar each. And they expired in three days just like all kinds of other salads out there, not a reduced-for-quick-sale offer. My three pounds of onions were $2.50, perfectly acceptable price range. Note that these people compete with Dollar Tree and Dollar General next door and across the street. This means that both have arranged for limited access to much smaller sizes on brand name household supplies like Tide and Dawn dish soap, so they can charge more per ounce but set the overall price lower. It's called predatory pricing, and since the Jimmy Carter administration and then Reagan especially we haven't enforced New Deal era laws requiring wholesalers to offer the same terms to all buyers. The result is dollar stores sit with a store full of trashy food (and WalMart junk) but offer a seeming discount on essentials that many find pricey. I'm making it a point to shop for a few items there as it's closer, but I'm pretty sure I'll end up with a handful of their door busters most the time too. The cheerios were especially tempting today.

But it was good enough for dinner for the most part. Beer was also very good and they have a lot of deals depending on the day you're in there.
