    Falafel pita wrap (ordered w/o mayo), hummus/pita in the background.

    My partner and I had the gyro pita wrap, and our vegan dining companion had the falafel pita wrap. We added a side of hummus with pita bread. The food was tasty, so flavorful. The service was friendly and relatively fast -- we were on the late side for lunch and it wasn't terribly busy by then. The only downside is that the place needs a good cleaning. If the food hadn't been so tasty, this would have had a bigger impact on my rating, but tasty food that we can all enjoy is a treat.

    Lamb Kabob Plate
    William W.

    You wouldn't think a Mediterranean restaurant in a small town this far from Southeast Europe would be that good. It is especially deceiving that a little hole in the wall open until midnight (or longer on the weekends) serves such great food. Insomnia, aptly named, is a pleasant surprise! Smack dab in the middle of Auburn's campus and frequently recommended by college kids, this is a wonderful experience! Admittedly, after eating food in Greece and Turkey, it's almost impossible for any restaurant in the U.S. to earn five stars from me. But trust me, this three-star review is a huge compliment. The thin-cut fries with spicy seasoning are absolutely outstanding, maybe the best menu item! The lamb kabob is pretty tasty, but the accompanying grilled vegetables are amazing. So is the Greek dressing on the salad! Everything is very fresh here! I'd skip the mediocre hummus, but the rest of the food ranges from good to incredible. Also, just realize how hard the few employees work. Imagine closing up on a weekend long after midnight, then being prepared to open the next day at 11:00 a.m., and putting a smile on your face for the customers. The employees couldn't have been kinder and more welcoming, genuinely nice people with a great attitude! And despite a considerable number of takeout and Uber Eats orders taking place as we entered, the food was cooked in an incredibly expedient manner and brought out within 20 minutes! That's a minor miracle! Thank you, Insomnia, for making our visit quite wonderful!

    Everything I've ever wanted in a falafel plate and some of the best falafel I've had. You can tell the hummus and everything is made with care. Yes, the restaurant is located in an old building- but a true foodie wouldn't bat an eye at such a thing. The man working the cash register was very nice and welcoming too

    Before my best friend moved out of our college house, we had our "last supper" here. As graduated seniors, we are kicking ourselves for not coming here earlier. The food was served on plastic plates and made us feel right at home. Ton of food, homey atmosphere, and the perfect place to say goodbye to four years at Auburn. Good grub

    Lamb Kabob Plate
    Fred R.

    This place is legit!!! Great thing about it is they stay open all night and the service is consistently the same. The grilled lamb kabob was so tender, seasoned and flavorful. the hummus was perfect. Can't wait to visit again.

    15.00 Sandwich and I paid 1.00 extra for salad dressing they CALLED taziki

    Worst slop I've ever seen called Mediterranean food. Because the Greek salad has nothing on it but bell pepper and Feta cheese, I chose a steak and cheese. It consisted of a hard, fatty piece of pot roast, onion and some poured on cheese sauce.

    Philly Steak Sandwich

    This Philly Cheesesteak so wet an good. I feel in love with it the flavor in this is amazing. Very friendly staff

    Kata kabob salad
    Curtis M.

    This place is a hole in the wall, which is usually a good thing, but this was a good thing. I've had true Mediterranean food, and this was as close to it as I've had. Even the sweet tea tasted like it had cinnamon and spearmint in it, which was a good add-in if it was. You definitely can't go wrong with anything here. I heard an Auburn student tell her friend, "You have to have their fries, they are lit! " if I ever get to come back here, I'm going to get their hamburger and fries just to see what all the fuss is about.

    Kafta Kabob Plate
    Nicole H.

    Ordered the kafta kabob plate which comes with a small salad, pita, oranges, rice, hummus & the kabob. Really tasty & do recommend! A little pricey but the portions are big! Also, ordered the gyro w/ side of fries. It was a little over seasoned but still very good. When you pull up try not to judge the curb appeal the food does make up for it! $32 well spent :)

    The wings and half of the fries. Bitten into gyro also shown.
    Cecilia T.

    The wings are bomb. Always cooked fresh to order so it takes a while for your food to come up. But they come out super crispy and the sauce is finger licking gooooood. The gyros are also really good and I love the seasoning on the fries. To go orders always come out quickly and the staff is friendly!

    This place is a gem in Peachtree City. I had the opportunity to go there on a recent trip and heard…read moregreat things about it from a friend who lived in the area. I went for lunch with a friend for a bday outing. Since it's cold, there's a black covering that makes it looks closed, but don't worry, they're open. The inside is clean and pretty much looks new. We were greeted by a hostess when we got in and promptly seated. We started our meal with the hummus and lentil soup. The hummus is the smoothest I've ever had and was paired with some warmed up pita. I'm usually not a big fan of lentils but the soup was good. The broth had a nice flavor. I got the half order of Shish Tawook for myself and my friend got the falafel wrap. The half is quite filling and still very delicious. The chicken was moist for the most part as in between the pieces they felt kinda overcooked but all in all very good and seasoned well. The vegetables were also seasoned well. Beirut is a great place to go out for a nice outing without going downtown!

    Beirut absolutely blew me away! Their menu has a huge variety of authentic Lebanese dishes, and I…read morelove that all the beef, chicken, and lamb are HALAL certified -- plus they offer plenty of gluten-free options, which is a big plus for my family. I ordered Brenda's Red Snapper and it was outstanding -- perfectly seasoned, fresh, and full of vibrant flavor. Easily one of the best snapper dishes I've ever had. For dessert, I tried the Baklava Cheesecake and WOW... the perfect fusion of classic baklava with a rich, creamy cheesecake. It was unforgettable. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was fantastic from start to finish. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes. Highly recommend Beirut to anyone looking for truly authentic Lebanese cuisine!
