    I was just passing through downtown Houston when I was looking for a quick snack, and I stumbled…read moreupon this supermarket. what a surprise! The parking was a bit of a challenge, but it was easy enough because it was a calm Tuesday morning. To get from the parking area to the store, you just take the elevator one level down, and then you're right inside. This place is surprisingly big, filled with all kinds of snacks, cookies, and coffee. The highlight for me was their shawarma breakfast wrap. It was top-notch and exactly what I needed. You choose between whole wheat or white pita, and it's filled with scrambled eggs, your choice of fresh or sautéed spinach, and they add potatoes as well. Then they top it with shawarma chicken, tomato, and a delicious sauce. For $8.5 it was worth every bite. Hands down, a five out of five. I also tried their coffee, which was just a standard brew sitting in ice for hours and nothing special. At $2.50, it was fine, but nothing to write home about. The real stars were the cookies. I got a coconut pecan cookie and an almond crunch cookie, and both were absolutely delicious. I didn't have time to explore the whole store, but there was a great selection of fresh produce, chocolates, and all sorts of small treats. Overall, the staff were really friendly, and the entire visit was smooth. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area. Five out of five stars!

    A great find with a great location downtown! I found myself wandering back here multiple times…read morewhile in town for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Plenty of healthy and not so healthy but delicious options, the breakfast chicken shawarma wrap was a great way to start the day with fresh squeezed orange juice. They have a great selection of salads and some sandwiches which were a quick and easy lunch. The MKT Bar had a warm bowl of chili on a cold day which was just what I needed. A great one stop shop with groceries as well!

    Since moving to the Houston area, Al's has been on my list for a casual night of good food. After a…read morenight out, I was looking for a spot nearby and saw it was less than 10 minutes away. Al's is a convenience store with a solid counter option for a meal. Parking is easy: they've got a couple of reserved spots out front plus a shared lot across the street you can pay for. Inside, there's a good amount of seating, with tables that fit up to four people. We ordered the gyro quesadilla, the half-and-half plate, and two gyro sandwiches with a side of fries. The gyro meat was definitely the star compared to the chicken shawarma, so naturally the quesadilla and sandwiches became our favorites. Surprisingly though, the quesadilla was the standout- the gooey cheese with the gyro was absolute perfection. The chicken shawarma was unfortunately extremely dry. Prices are decent, and the garlic sauce paired well with everything. I just wish we had gotten more than one, since all the other sauces were tzatziki.

The over-the-counter setup, paired with the option to grab a cold drink from the refrigerated section at the back, adds to the charm of this place inside Montrose. I've ordered the gyro plate here a few times with no complaints. The meat is flavorful with a side of rice, hummus, pita bread, and cucumber salad. The hummus has just the right amount of oil, and the portions overall are satisfactory. I'm a big fan of the Cajun-seasoned fries, too. Still need to try their kabobs and shawarmas. There are a few tables for dining in, but it's definitely more of a takeout spot. The service is straightforward - you place your order, get your ticket, and pay at the front. Definitely be coming back if I'm in the area

    My recent visits here consisted of a Gyros Plate with rice, Hamburger with uncut tomatoes n pickles…read more& lemon potatoes and Greek Spaghetti Meat Sauce on Sunday Special. All 3 meals were really flavorful, good quality, really well-seasoned, very juicy and so delicious. The gyros and burger are without question imo the best in TX. Ekko's and Nick The Greek are 2nd n 3rd for Greek food for me. I always got the gyros sandwich as opposed to the plate before which is odd bc I always prefer meat plates over sandwich form in other foods like bbq, steak, etc. The meat pieces were all really tasty and had some slight char to them too. The taziki sauce is always cold, creamy in feel and refreshing with a good yogurt aroma to it. It's a great bonus and the gyros didn't even need it tbh. The tomatoes were nicely refreshing and the exotic, cool center dolma is always a little treat with meals here. The rice and chunky lemon potatoes with my meals were always mild but still great in texture and prep. As I said before; from my experiences in every single Greek cafe, if the taziki sauce is good, the gyros will be too. It's a solid symptom and indicator imo. As for the burger, very rarely are burger places only in TX actually any good for the past 15 years. So many are just average or below lacking seasoning or a great overall flavor. Niko Niko's, Goode Company Hamburgers and TX Hamburger Palace are my top 3 in that order for it. Each different too. The brioche buns were just the right thickness and very soft to make the beef patty stick out well. The patty was so nice in charbroiled taste, saltiness, richness, beefiness and tender in every bite. A good burger doesn't need much in toppings, but cool, refreshing, tomatoes are a must for me and pickles add some tangy crunch too. For steak rare, but for a burger medium to medium rare. I had never seen or heard of their Greek Spaghetti n Meat Sauce before. This was like a Greek Bolognese with a lot of love in its flavor. The noodles were drained, very moist and so soft. I don't like too much cheese, so I took some off, but still like some. The meat sauce gravy itself was really flavorful, savory, fatty enough and had that subtle sweet, warm spice aroma you get in the Greek lasagna. I like to get dessert here sometimes when I have extra room, bc they have some great options like their galaktobourreko, chocolate ganache cake, etc. The service was very welcoming, friendly and efficient on these visits.

    Haven't been back for awhile and this place has consistency on food. It was good as usual…read more Service was nice too
