#20 Kufta Shish Kabob
Andrew A.

Stumbled upon this place after looking at their rating on Yelp while in the area and had to try it. Yes, it is located right next to a gas station, but hear me out... Very unassuming location with plenty of options for everyone. Their menu covers anything from Philly cheesesteaks and hamburgers, to gyros and rice plates. Surely you'll find something that caters to your preferences. We ordered the Kufta Shish Kabob plate to share, along with a 6pc order of falafel, and some french fries. Portions are HUGE -- 2 people can easily eat off one plate. The Kabob plate was loaded with different types of meat, grilled onion and peppers, rice, and a refreshing side salad, as well as a tzatziki-style sauce. Meats were well seasoned and tender, rice was fluffy, and veggies had a nice char to them. Believe or not, the fries were a highlight of the meal! They have a light coating that gives them the extra crisp and seasoning that makes you eat them non-stop. The falafel was delicious as well and the pita was fresh, warm, and soft. Overall, great meal, but it is self service: you order at the register, you pick up your food when ready, and you clean up after yourself.

#3 Chicken Gyro Sandwich
Cale S.

The chicken gyro is quite large, delicious, and meaty. Unlike other gyros I've tried, it's not dry at all. It has a light, juicy sauce that I can't quite identify--perhaps it's a combination of chicken juices and a light oil. Either way, it's quite moist. The price is around $11-12 à la carte. I wish they offered a combo deal for $14 that included fries.

#20 Kufta Shish Kabob
Cass A.

We happened to drive by this spot and promptly looked it up on Yelp only to notice it held such a high rating. We love finding local, hole-in-the-wall spots that are tasty and cost effective. Being attached to a gas station's strip mall made this place memorable for sure. We split the #20 Kufta Shish Kabob platter and opted for the rice. The rice itself was packed with flavor, which is always a good sign. It came with a side salad, including a vinaigrette which helped lighten the meal alongside the tzatziki. The Kufta itself was flavorful and well seasoned, ensuring the gaminess of the lamb was not noticeable. The fries were spot on - meaty and crispy, exactly what we were looking for. The falafel was hot and fresh, giving us the classic falafel we were hoping for. Overall, we're glad we stopped. I gave a four rather than a five star rating because space is a bit dated and service was minimal.

#2 Gyro Pocket Sandwich
Zachary O.

Absolutely PACKED with meat and the sauce was the perfect compliment. Also loved the bear battered fries. Got my food out to me in less than 5 minutes. 10/10

#3 Chicken Gyro Sandwich
Abigail O.

The best little Greek restaurant in Blaine, MN. It's in a little strip mall but don't let that stop you -- the food is fantastic, the people who work there are so kind, and they have fountain soda which is always a plus in my book!

Menu and counter
Dan S.

Got takeout for dinner. We ordered 3 entrees: gyro sandwich, kufta kabob sandwich, and the lamb shish kabob plate. We also ordered a side of falafel, fries and had to try the baklava. All was very good and reasonably priced for the portion size. The fries traveled ok for a 10 minute drive home. Would be even better if you could have eaten at the restaurant. As far as the interior of the restaurant, it was very clean and bright. Not what I expected from the outside. I've driven by this place many times living in the area and always wondered how it was. Well, it was worth checking out and not sure why we waited.

Very disappointing experience…read more I ordered two chicken shawarmas through DoorDash about 15 minutes before arriving and received confirmation that the restaurant had accepted my order. When I arrived, the place was completely empty and the employee was not busy at all. He had not even started my order. I clearly told him my name was Alex and that I was there to pick up my DoorDash order. He checked his phone and told me it would take another 6-7 minutes, but I ended up waiting about 15 more minutes. What concerned me even more was the food preparation. I watched the employee take prepared meat out of the refrigerator and handle and pull it apart with his bare hands. The whole process looked very unsanitary. When my food was finally handed to me, I opened it immediately and discovered that it was not my order at all. Instead of two chicken shawarmas, I received plates of rice and meat. The employee then told me he thought I was a different customer, even though I had already clearly given him my name. After approximately 30 minutes of waiting, my actual order still had not been prepared. I asked to cancel because I did not have another 15 minutes to wait, but he refused and tried to convince me that the incorrect food was "similar" to what I ordered. Extremely slow, careless service and very concerning food-handling practices. I would not return.

Absolutely the worst dining experience I've ever had. This place seriously needs a health…read moreinspection immediately. The employee serving us refused to accept card payments and acted very sketchy about the whole situation. The restaurant itself was filthy it looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. The food prep and service areas were completely unsanitary. To make matters worse, the employee never changed gloves and was also handling food with bare hands. The food was being pulled from random buckets and foil containers, which made everything feel extremely unsafe. We ended up throwing our food away and leaving. Completely disgusting experience.

First off, it's not "Greek" per say. Generically it's Mediterranean, but the owners are of Arabic…read moredescent. I've been a customer since the original location opened, around 1998. Overall the food is good. Lamb shank is now something you have to ask for. One shank comes with the buffet. There is a small sign for it on top of the hood, but it's easy to miss since you're looking down at the trays. Falafel you may want to order from the menu so it comes hotter than what is set out in a tray. The only other item I can think of that is touch & go are the mussels at dinner time, which can be getting dried out and tough from being overcooked. Just dig around to find the pale, softer ones. If you don't have a big appetite you can order from the menu. There is some outdoor seating out front which is nice when the weather is good. The front-of-house staff have always been friendly, gracious. The only thing I miss is the fountain, which was removed when they finally needed more table space. If you're stuck on the south side, Marhaba on 28th & Nicollet has a family tie.

I have been here several times and each time find a new food to try and love! My favorite thing is…read morethe sambusas. They are flaky, crispy, juicy, and filled to the brim! There's salads, pastas, meat, seafood, and rice all of various types. I was nervous at first about how spicy the food may be but have found everything very mild. The employees are kind and helpful and were able to help tell me about allergens. Even my very pick 7 year old finds food she loves here! Take a chance, try it!
