    Falafel Platter (4 pcs) with Fried Cauliflower
    Kiesha S.

    This was my second time (this week ) ordering from Ghassan's on E. Cornwallis, although I have ordered takeout in person before (last year at some time). The location itself is pretty unassuming. It's in a corner lot, and nothing spectacular. I am not sure if it is the original location or not, but they have two others in the city. This one looks more like a plain store with some chairs and tables, and a few bench-style tables (like a fast food place). It's pretty sterile-looking to me. When I first visited, I wasn't impressed, but then I tried their falafel, and I was fine with it. The pictures I am sharing are of food from my most recent DoorDash order, but the way the food is packaged and prepared has been no different whether I pick it up or get it delivered. Perhaps that is my disappointment. The food is delicious. It usually comes freshly prepared. If it is not "piping hot" by the time it is delivered to me, it is at least still warm. Nothing is stale or tastes like it has been sitting. I love Mediterranean food, and the Falafel platter, fried cauliflower, and spicy hummus with cucumbers are my usual. I don't eat meat, so I appreciate that they also offer a meat substitute in the Beyond brand in most of their meat dishes. Despite my love of their food, the way they package the food for takeout and delivery leaves much to be desired. My last delivery I attempted to call ahead and remind them what to put in my bag, and they still forgot the utensils and napkins, and my bag was still an oily mess, with food particles on the outside of the containers. In addition, since they use paper/recyclable containers, everything soaks through, so expect a sloppy fridge shelf if you put your take-out container in your refrigerator overnight. Surprise! I had oil from fried cauliflower plus dressing from a salad to clean up from dinner the night before, all before I enjoyed my leftovers. Yeah... So, now I have to decide if the frustration of cleaning up before I eat, is worth the flavors I get at Ghassan's or not. It's quite the conundrum. ‍

    Grabbing some lunch

    First time trying this spot. So glad I found it! Mediterranean is my favorite and Ghassan's provided super fresh, delicious food! The dining area is very casual. Lots of people that seemed to be regulars stopping in for lunch while we were there. The young lady taking orders was very pleasant. I had the Mezza Plate which consists of falafel, tabouli, labne, muhannara, hummus and pita bread. It was so delicious! My daughter had the Veggie rice bowl and loved it! I don't live in Greensboro but when I'm out that way, I'll definitely be going back for more!

    Food was great, and the service is fast! The place could be a bit cleaner as most of the tables needed to be wiped off. 9/10 Would definitely recommend and I plan to go back!

    Delicious food, made fast and easy! Love this place, it's definitely one of my go-to lunch spots. Their chicken shawarma is delicious as well as their rice. Must try!

    All the platters. Harissa Chicken Bowl, Beef Kafta Bowl, Mezza Plate
    Jessica G.

    My first time at Ghassan's made my entire day, maybe even week?! I had never tried this place because I have my go-to Greek places and I didn't deviate too much, until now. This building is a bit older and the inside ambiance is not much to look at, but the food speaks for itself. You order at the front of the restaurant and are given an order number on your receipt. Lunch time is pretty busy but they do a great job of getting the food out of the kitchen. I LOVE their bowls. It has all of the delicious things, like hummus, tzaziki, red cabbage, and more that you want with a platter but would have to order extra sides usually. Their harissa chicken was delicious and flavorful, as well as the Kafta, but my favorite is the falafel. Some of the best I've ever had. The prices are amazing and the food is solid. I love that this place is near my new office location because I'll be coming for a visit as much as I can.

    Chicken sub with double salad
    Terri S.

    Food is hot and fresh. Made to order. Quick and easy. I usually go for dinner or late lunch so it's not a long wait during this time. Because they are jumping for the lunch hour rush. No complaints. Prices are very reasonable.

    Veggie bowl with added harissa chicken.
    Niki L.

    Ordered the Veggie rice bowl today and added harissa chicken. The bowl was colorful and full of flavor and I love how I was able to have a little sample of dips and sides. I especially enjoyed the muhammara dip, the cauliflower and the purple cabbage. Not pictured is a side of za'atar fries which were delicious, especially dipped in tzatziki. Also, Jenn was awesome and very welcoming and attentive!

    I ordered the gyro pita, side salad and fries. Everything was delicious. The pasta salad wasn't my fav, it's a required taste.

    Everything was superb…read more I was not familiar with Turkish cuisine at all and our server spent all the time we needed to select our food. I will definitely be back. Can't wait. Prices are very reasonable!

    My friend Michael and I were meeting for dinner to celebrate our birthdays. It was in November, but…read moreyou know how it goes! LOL. Anyway, we were happy to finally get together in January, and knowing that I was way overdue for another Yelp review, we decided to pick something new for me to critique, so we decided based on some recommendations I saw online, to try Zeeyum Kitchen. Zeeyum Kitchen is located in a big shopping center on Market Street with plenty of parking. It's curb appeal was limited and a little hard to spot but I didn't care as long as the meal delivered. I would have to say the same about the inside. It was pleasant enough but nothing particularly inviting or welcoming. We were promptly seated and warmly welcomed and asked if we wanted something to drink. I decided to start off with my Diet Coke and was disappointed when she showed up with a can. No glass, no ice, and no refills. Ugh! The menu was kind of limited but filled with traditional favorites. I thought it was a little bit on the expensive side considering the atmosphere, etc. but nothing is cheap anymore. I had had a big lunch so I decided to go with the falafel salad. Although the menu mentioned all kinds of ingredients in the salad, it looked to me like mine was basically spinach and falafel. I was disappointed. Michael ordered the chicken and rice and vegetables and said it was tasty. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. We had a lot to catch up on and sat there for over 2 and 1/2 hours and I appreciated that the wait staff was happy to have us stay and enjoy our conversation. Maybe we would have wanted coffee or dessert but no one never asked. I don't mean to knock Zeeyum Kitchen, and I wish them the best of luck, but I will not be back. The quality and portion of my salad cannot compare to Odeh's or the hearty, well-priced meal at Nazareth Bread. I've also enjoyed Sarah's Kebab shop and Mykonos. Zeeyum Kitchen unfortunately is at the bottom of the list for me.

    I've been meaning to try Odeh's for a while now, and I'm glad I finally did. It indisputably lives…read moreup to its hype. I went for an early dinner and was lucky to beat the crowd. We were seated immediately at a clean, spacious table. The restaurant soon filled up around us, and though I could see how popular it indeed was, the tables were well spaced and it wasn't too loud. We began with the red pepper hummus with pita bread, and it was absolutely delicious. Smooth, rich, full of flavor. The portion was generous -- more than enough for two people. We ended up ordering an additional side of pita bread to finish it off, and practically scraped the plate, it was that good. For my main, I had the Mediterranean grilled chicken sub. Like with the hummus, the portion was huge and every bite was bursting with flavor. The chicken was well seasoned and it was one of those perfectly assembled, bursting to the seams with toppings, kind of sandwiches that make you go "oh yeah, this is why people order sandwiches!" Everyone there was friendly, and our server was super attentive. The menu was also pretty expansive, so we won't be running out of things to try anytime soon. All in all, I would highly recommend this to anyone.
