Because this meal really hit the spot…read more --- --- --- I've had Athena's bookmarked for a while now, as my parents live in Friendswood, and thought this would be a great place to try when visiting them. The stars finally aligned and I was able to meet them here recently. My mom wanted to order some dolomades to start off, and I'm not really a big fan, so I just figured those would be all her. But she offered to let me try one, and I can easily say that these were the best dolomades I've ever had. She agreed. I have no idea what they do to make these not taste so "sharp" like they usually do, but these were really unbelievable. For my appetizer, and I went with a beef/lamb gyro and it was everything you want in a gyro. Soft pita bread, non-gamey meat and everything in between. The greek salad that came with it was pretty underwhelming, but I ordered a side of greek fries too, and those were what I was hoping they'd be. We finished off by ordering a few desserts to share. I went with the strawberry cheesecake as the one I was mostly focused on, and loved it. This is definitely not a frozen cheesecake - they make them in-house and it's obvious when you take your first bite. I understand why Athena's Corner has such great reviews and hope to be back!

I just want to say I walked in today and I just want to say the place smells like straight trash juice... tabbouleh was like encrusted to the sides of container like it's been out all week... The only one Grape leaves they had out looked putrid.. Like it's been out since last week as well Also no desserts in cold refrigerator The only dessert they had was left out and looked super dry and still trying to sale them and hardly anything in stock Along with wilted lettuce for sandwiches I've come to you and specifically order a chicken shawarma sandwich with hummus The guy who is working is sooooo rude and unwilling to help with order ... Told me he can't make a sandwich with hummus I told him if paying for the hummus was an issue...that I would pay 4$ for hummus if needed..but just refused to take care of the customer...this was before I asked him what he was doing because he grabbed a Togo box ...and proceeded to to put hummus in a box and then act like I didn't order it on a sandwich And this isn't the first time Last time he got mad because I asked for my sandwich in pita bread not tortilla bread..lol (that would make it a burrito) And acted like I was asking too much.. When all I want is a sandwich I order made correctly... I just gonna leave this here I would not recommend this place to anyone... You want good place go to Dimassi's on nasa blvd.. But do not go here unless you want to spend a lot of money on food poisioning And a hint of stank from there place up your nose for a good 30mins You'd definitely remeber this place but not for anything positive Please Mike hire new people Who know what they are doing And who care about the buisnes. While your gone Again do not eat here

We were a little intimidated by the reviews, but this place delivered. We both got the #1 Chicken…read moreShawarma plate and were very happy. It was traditionally made, with chicken thighs, and did not feel greasy at all. Very tender meat and mildly spiced. The hummus was mild as well, and you could tell it was homemade. Super creamy and light. The rice was cooked perfectly. The salad was small, but fresh. The yogurt sauce was flavorful, and was intended for the salad but could be mixed with the chicken if you need more flavor. My husband got the spicy mango yogurt and liked his, too. The whole meal felt very healthy. This a super casual, quiet and calm place to eat which we appreciated. Highly recommend it!

Just living right there in the middle of the road. Service was fine, place was fine, food was fine.

I've been coming to Bibi's House of Kabob for work lunches for a while now, and it finally hit me…read morethat I'd never written a review. This spot really deserves one. It's one of the best restaurants on Center Street and, in my opinion, one of the healthiest options too. A meal here almost always starts with the hummus and pita. The hummus is unbelievably smooth and flavorful, the kind that keeps you dipping until you've accidentally made it a meal of its own. The tzatziki is another standout. Creamy, cool, and garlicky with just the right tang, it's the kind of sauce that makes everything it touches better. I've never been big on eggplant dips, so I haven't gone for that, but I know plenty of people swear by it. My usual order is the pita gyro with a Greek salad. It feels fresh and filling without being heavy, though I have to admit their fries are hard to resist. On my last visit I went for the mixed chicken and shish kabob plate. The meat was tender, juicy, and seasoned so well that I didn't even need the extras, though of course I still used them because that tzatziki is just too good. For dessert, the baklava is always worth saving room for. It's flaky, sweet, and just the right amount of indulgent at the end of a healthy-feeling meal. Bibi's can get packed around lunchtime, and once you've eaten here it's easy to understand why. The food is fresh, consistently delicious, and a step above what you'd expect from a quick lunch stop. I'll be back, as always, and one of these days I'll slow down enough to give the menu the detailed attention it deserves

I was eager to give it a try, so tonight my family chose our dishes for a takeout order and looked forward to something great for dinner. Based on reviews I ordered falafel, kibbe, and chicken shawarma. My husband had a gyro and my daughter ordered the feta dip (which turned out to be cubes of feta and nothing for dipping. Unfortunately, we all agreed it was very okay. Everything was palatable, but it lacked the sparkle of meals we've eaten at other local eateries and at our Greek friend's house. My husband and I had the great good fortune to be able to travel in Istanbul and Greece over the summer, and the food was...better. I understand that region matters; perhaps I am not as enthusiastic about this version of food from that part of the world. One woman's opinion shouldn't spoil other peoples bliss, but I'm looking forward to my next visit to Wael's. I'll appreciate the delicious kibbe better than before.

We started with a sampler platter of appetizers, and let me tell you: you could tell the dolmas ("grape leaves" on the menu) were made fresh that morning, the hummus was delicious, the salad was refreshing, and the kibbeh and falafel were tasty too. The lamb sandwich was so good; I don't usually like pickles, but I did in that sandwich! We went for a late lunch/early dinner (3pm ish) and it was very quiet inside. Our server was conversational and fun! Highly recommend: go here if you want to support an under-appreciated Mediterranean restaurant in the area.

I believe they were short handed and that's why it look awhile to take our order and serve us. First time I've been there so didn't know that I had to go inside to pay. So we waited until we could flag someone down to ask how to pay our bill. Unfortunately, they only have one cash machine as I had to wait another 10(?) minutes to pay my bill as the party in front of me seemed to be paying several checks at once. I would definitely go back but would be more mentally prepared to wait in line to pay the bill.

We have a young child, so we opt for takeout most of the time. Today, I got off of work early, so my husband and I wanted to dine-in child-free. We arrived close to the end of lunch hour. We saw the sign advertising for the chef combo, which I wanted to order after perusing the menu. The waitress was not friendly. Her demeanor and tone were not customer centric. She said I couldn't order the chef combo anymore. I told her it wasn't 3 yet. She said that they ran out of sides, so it wasn't an option. The message was fine, but the delivery was rude. I picked something else and was confirming what it came with, and rather than point me in the right direction, she went back and forth with me. My husband has worked in the restaurant business and was shocked at the interaction. I wanted to order an alcoholic beverage, but after the negative interaction, I opted to leave it at food only. I didn't want to stay longer than needed. I wish I could give this place a higher review, but I'm going to go back to take out if I come back. I'll think twice about dining here again.

We wanted to try some hummus, so we ordered the Mezze Plate, along with the Australian Lamb Souvlaki Plate. As we waited, we received complimentary salads (very refreshing) with lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, olives, feta, and onions, all drizzled with olive oil and herbs. The lamb was delicious: tender and well‑seasoned. The rice is parboiled, but I actually don't mind that at all, it was really good! The pita bread was very soft; I don't know if it's made in‑house, but it certainly feels like it. The tzatziki sauce was super creamy and so good. The Mezze Plate was great as well. The dolmades were good, the falafel was good, and the spanakopita (a large empanada‑like pastry filled with spinach and cheese) was delicious: pillowy, flaky, and creamy, all in one bite. It was served with small portions of tzatziki and hummus, both creamy and very tasty, plus more pita bread. We were impressed by The Great Greek. Even though it's a chain restaurant, the food is delicious and very good quality. A great spot in Baybrook Mall.

I love Greek food, so I decided to try this place out. I was greeted when I approached the counter. I ordered the Gyro Plate to go. There wasn't anyone in the restaurant, so it was very clean and quiet. It took about 3 minutes for my order to be ready. My dinner came with a good size salad, rice pilaf, pita bread and the meat. The meat was delicious. They don't give much pita bread, so I'll order extra next time. The rice was "ok". I didn't like that it had red pepper flakes in it, making it a little spicier than I can stand. Overall, I like it. I did go back and got a gyro instead of the gyro plate and it was HUGE and delicious! I unfortunately didn't get a chance to take a picture because I was starving, so you'll have to trust the Teller of Truth!
