This is a Build Your Own Bowl with lots of veggies and chicken
Ruth C.

I just love the food at Kairos. It's delicious and very filling. We always take home leftovers

Martha D.

Kairos is great! We were craving relatively healthy food and came across this Mediterranean place. It looks like Kairos is a chain local to the south Columbia/Southeast area as it looks like they have multiple locations. We went for the build your own bowl option and it tasted delicious. Fresh ingredients that all pair well together. I really like their selection of in house juices and got the strawberry one. We also got an order of the fries, honestly slapped. Something about the feta with the vinaigrette made it delish. Would come back if I'm in the area! Service was just a little bit slow, that is my main critique

Really liked the bowl options and the dining -in bowls/plates. The employees were really nice and patient

Danielle P.

Great place to eat, they are fairly new to the Columbiana mall area. Fast, courteous service. I will most definitely eat here again. They give a huge serving size, enough for seconds. This is my second time eating at a Kairos Mediterranean. They are pretty consistent. I encourage all to check them out in your area.

Spicy chicken bowl with busman's rice, cucumber salad, zucchini, hummus, and olives.

Easily one of the best med restaurants I've ever been to. Get the spicy chicken and avocado dressing, both are fire!

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Wow, wow, wow. If you love Mediterranean or if you're looking to give it a try, I cannot recommend Kairos Mediterranean enough! The food is served very similar to how Chipotle is setup. There are build-your-own meals as well as standard menu items to choose from. If you're new to Mediterranean food, the people working there are superb. They walk you through everything in a way that isn't condescending (some places haven't learned how to master that skill). My two friends and I all chose to build our own Kairos bowls. As you can see from the photos we each chose a wide range of protein, spreads, and toppings. All three of us cleared our bowls quickly, everything was just so delicious! The restaurant is exceptionally clean and tiny. The style is a modernistic feel of Greece, which felt very refreshing. I am not exaggerating when I say the restroom may have been the cleanest public restroom I've seen in a very, very long time. If you're on the fence about trying Kairos Mediterranean, please say yes!!

Combo platter (lamb & chicken) and lamb bowl
Angel F.

Friendly service, clean place, bowl was decent. We like that they had a variety of toppings to add to your bowl, wasn't a huge fan of their pita bread, hummus or tzzikki sauce.

BYOB - delicious!

A build your own bowl kind of place which is great for a quick and filling meal. The workers on our visit were so personable and easy to chat with. They gave hearty scoops of everything we asked for. Great flavor and was a great meal on our pit stop to Columbia. I will definitely go back to a Kairos near me!!

Lamb pita and watermelon juice
Andrew B.

Admittedly, I purposefully drove out of the way to try out Kairos. I'm a huge Greek food fan, so this seemed like the perfect place to go. The ordering is simple and designed like a Subway or Chipotle where you can build your own bowl, salad, pita, etc. The workers were very helpful in crafting a gyro and also suggested I try the Feta Fries. The lamb in the gyro was so incredibly tender and savory. Their homemade tzatziki sauce along with the roasted red peppers and onions really tied in the whole dish. It was a perfect blend of flavors that seemed very authentic to the Mediterranean atmosphere. The Feta Fries were absolutely amazing! It's pretty much just fries with Greek salad dressing and feta cheese sprinkled on top, but it was fries like I've never experienced before! The dressing was a little overpowering, but the feta helped to cut through the bite of the dressing and rounded out the flavor quite well. It was served piping hot from the fryer, so that added a nice touch as well.

There is a very spunky, cheerful young girl on the register now. The aforementioned front line worker has been absent the last two visits I've had. The initial portions of rice and protein are fuller now, the beans can be still little slim to my liking but it is huge in improvement. This establishment won't dampen your day now, let us hope these are permanent improvements. We are frequent visitors to Chipotle in general but this location on Harbison Blvd has negatives with one positive. The positive is even at peak time the line is never too long but that could be because of the customer service also which is poor. In addition to the most recent Yelp reviewers I agree that customer interaction could be improved greatly. I've been in here a few times and to me the same culprit is one of the girls, she wears a hat, glasses, has a tattoo on forearm. I know when I see her behind the counter I'm not going to enjoy ordering. In addition she is the main person that skimps on toppings every time! Now I don't know what the employee handbook says for the portion to dish out but it has to be more than what she gives. When you do have to ask for more topping she has a "go to hell" look on her face. Some of the other employees are just as bad with portions but they at least try to offer customer service. I always get mine to-go but the restaurant seating area and drink station look clean.

We were on a road trip and stopped here because it was along the interstate. I used the app and…read moreordered ahead. Getting into the parking lot was a challenge. The road in front is very congested. But once we got parked it was all smooth sailing. When we pulled into the parking lot I got notification that our order was ready for inside pick up. We took a quick pit stop into the clean bathroom and back on the road we went. My salad was PERFECT. I like to get the market salad with grilled nuggets. This salad was super fresh and the portion size was large. Super tasty. We would definitely come back again. But would possibly go past the restaurant and do a u turn to come back to it. The intersection where it is located doesn't have a left turn light and the people coming from the mall block the intersection. All this makes it harder. Another suggestion would be to turn into the mall and come back out so you are going straight across into the parking lot. That could be faster. Great food. Great portion. Great job.

The drive-thru attendant seemed very nonchalant and honestly acted like she didn't want to be there. She spoke so softly I had to lean out of my vehicle just to hear her, and she lacked the upbeat, friendly energy Chick-fil-A is known for. She also didn't ask any follow-up questions about sauces, condiments, upgrades, etc. -- I had to keep adding things myself. Thankfully, the young lady at the pickup window was much more pleasant and bubbly, and she happily helped when my condiments were missing. As for the food, the sandwich and nuggets were good as always, but the fries were soft and barely warm. Overall, disappointment is an understatement because I've honestly never had a Chick-fil-A experience I didn't enjoy... until today. I'm a Yelper, so I have to keep it honest. This location gets 3 stars at best from me. Hopefully the service and food quality improve because Chick-fil-A is usually an easy 5-star experience in my book.

Some call it a dive bar, some are more generous; are there sticky tables, servers with tattoos, a busy bar were suds and cheaper whiskey prevail, and original paint? You bet! Let's get to the food. Lucky's menu features a variety of burgers, salads, wings, hotdogs and sides. Don't expect beer on tap, but an extensive selection of bottled beer should satisfy most folks. We ordered a Black and Blu burger with onion straws and a patty melt with fries. From the time we walked in until our food arrived probably took about 25 minutes. That was our own fault as we took way too long deciding what to order. When our food arrived, I immediately dug into the well constructed burger. I could barely open my mouth wide enough. And the taste? Very tasty. My wife enjoyed her patty melt--a burger on marbled rye with cheese and cooked onions that holds up surprisingly well! My onion straws were crunchy and sweet. Fries weren't great, but all in all an enjoyable burger experience. Oh, did I mention entertainment? Well on Tuesdays you can grab a free bingo card and try your luck winning a gift card!
