    Beef bowl
    Amy M.

    I use to always get the same thing but now I am trying something new. I tried the beef bowl. It was good but I wish I asked from more cucumber sauce. It was a little on the dry side. The staff are alway friendly and helpful to help ypu pick out what to get. Their seating space is like a diner. 4 or 2 chairs to a table or booths. I went their with my folks and brothers family there wasn't a big table that we all could sit at. So, we got a booth and pulled a 2 chairs & a table over. I wish they had a table with 6 chairs. They do have a long table but it has tall chairs around. One is near were you order food. Two tall chairs aren't good when you have small children in your groups.

    Falafel on Pita (with side salad)
    Melody B.

    I always pass this place when I'm in Greensboro and I finally decided to try it. Ghassan's did not disappoint! I ordered to-go through their website online to be picked up immediately. My order was a falafel on pita. It came with one side so I picked a side salad with a pickle. Food was ready within 15 minutes of when I ordered. It was located in a pick-up area so it was easy to find and grab. The whole meal was delicious and fresh. It was a very affordable and filling lunch too at less than $10. I definitely plan on ordering from here again!

    The place is nice , bright, clean, organized and with full of happy employees ready to serve you. We ordered a bunch of pitas made from scratch I'm sure. Chicken Shawarma Pita "The Middle Eats and the Harissa Chicken Bowl. We really enjoyed our lunch here in Ghassan's fresh Mediterranean joint.

    Sometimes, when you try something new, it goes wrong. And sometimes it just makes you appreciate those good places. This is one of those experiences, and one of those reviews. Just wait their advertisement of fresh, the Gyro meat is the thinly sliced, frozen meat that you can get at most establishments. The tzatziki that complemented it, didn't really complement it. No taste of dill, pickle, spices, anything. While it didn't taste bad, Didn't have that fresh tzatziki taste one would expect from a establishment that proclaims to be fresh. Did I mention the Gyro meat was frozen processed meat? No spit? No good chunks of meat that I've been chard on the grill? The chicken Shawarma was mediocre at best. While it wasn't terrible, it doesn't stand out, especially when you go to Trulia authentic Middle Eastern establishments. In a city that has a plethora of offerings, this is one that you're better off missing.

    Harissa Chicken Bowl
    Odalis R.

    I've been eyeing this place for a while because we are in the area alot. Today was finally our day to stop in for a late lunch. It's a casual restaurant where you order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. I wanted the falafel platter but then the Harrisa chicken rice bowl caught my eye so I went with that. And boy am I glad I did. I have never had this flavor of chicken before but the sauce was delicious (and not spicy) and I really enjoyed the tabouli and the pickled cabbage. It also had a white sauce on top that tasted like sour cream, but not being a fan of sour cream I did not care for it. The service was nice and when the soda fountain ran out of ice they promptly filled it up. I look forward to coming back another day and try the falafel platter.

    Chicken Salad Plate

    Every time I visit this business my food is delicious! I have sat in and ordered carryout and my experience is always consistent. There's plenty of seating indoors. Every time that I've visited, the area is clean and sanitized. I LOVE their Chicken Salad with pita. That's my favorite thing to order when I visit. I have also ordered their Grilled Chicken Salad and that is tasty as well. I never have to wait for a long time to receive my order. The workers always appear friendly and accommodating.

    I ordered catering for a company lunch. food was fresh and hot when I arrived. ordered chicken kabob skewers and Greek salad. I was missing the salad dressing but when I asked the staff I was quickly given the missing item. I went during lunch time, it was busy but well maintained and there wasn't a line.

    Messa plate

    As an Arab I'll tell you what I really enjoyed and what tasted like home cooking The muhammura pepper dip was perfect like back home The falafel as well! Perfect and I enjoy how they are flatter The toom (garlic dip) was also perfect and you can take tubs home. The tabbuli was also perfect theirs had quinoa in it which was great. I wish the yogurt dip was more like labban or lebneh which is thicker and saltier but I'm sure this is more palatable for western/southern folks. The hummus was good I just add a ton of garlic to mine Toasted nuts would have sent this over the end but for a fast food place this is AMAZING Also their shirts say yalla which made me smile I definitely want one, wish I could have met the owner to say thanks and how good it was!! I'll be back to try the Zataar fries.

    One of my favorite Mediterranean eats in Greensboro. The Chicken Shawarma Bowl is my go to and is always so fresh and so tasty. The variety of favors and textures really work together so well. The pickled cabbage and tabouli really bring out the flavor of the chicken. The pita is always fresh and warm. Already looking forward to my next trip!

    Quick update: the veggie rice bowl is fire! I ordered this for takeout and it was still hot and fresh when I got it home. The only thing I would do the next time I order is get a light serving of the red cabbage. And the Lebanese pickles. That combination gave it more of a tart taste and the flavors of the two was too much for my tastebuds. Everything else was great though. I really loved the tahini sauce that is drizzled over the cauliflower. And the hummus was a great addition. My fellow vegetarians, I would definitely recommend this dish. I think you would love it prepared just the way it is. My above review was just my preference. All of the ingredients are great together and it's definitely worth a try!

My husband and I were in downtown Greensboro on a Saturday afternoon and decided to hit this place up for lunch. When they called the place The Bodega, they really mean it's a bodega. It's decked out like a small convenience store from the second you walk in. We ordered our food at the cash register to eat at one of their tables outside. The cashier brought our sandwiches out about 10 minutes after ordering. I ordered the Turkey Caesar. It had turkey, shaved parmesan, marinated cherry tomato, house-made Caesar dressing, onion, and romaine lettuce in an 8" sandwich roll. It was a little pricey at $15, but it was worth the splurge. The dressing and parmesan cheese were unbelievable! Since this is in downtown Greensboro, there is no dedicated parking lot but we easily found street parking nearby. The place has a few tables outside for customers to enjoy their food. If you're looking for a good sandwich, I highly recommend checking The Bodega out.

Upon walking in the place appeared clean, the customer service, not the best. But maybe someone was having a bad day, I get it. I'm so glad I did check my bag before I left because they did not give me ranch or plasticware, man I would have missed out on some amazing ranch. The young man gave me three ranches which I'm so disappointed I only grabbed one. Unfortunately I didn't get the best pictures but the food tasted great. The fries were thick cut (probably frozen) and let me tell you, I would just come back for the ranch! They have my favorite restaurant ranch. The slaw was really tasty - good ole southern sweet mayonnaise slaw, not too vinegary. The sandwich, not bad, good combo of toppings, they paired well together. I' ll be back.

I then watched the manager start filling containers by ADDING THE REFILL ON TOP - no rotating, no changing containers, just adding on top. Not acceptable.

We also saw someone have their sunglasses knocked off their head by someone exiting to the patio because their table was that close to the door. The gentleman picking up trays and plates was smiling and quick. It was nice to see!
