I would have liked to see larger portions but fresh and yummy with great Mediterranean flavors. The staff onsite was super friendly and welcoming, and even suggested the banana pudding - which ended up being one of my favorite things I got!

We love exploring cultural markets and have passed this corner store a few times but always in a…read morerush so have stopped in. Finally made a point to come here for dinner and excited to try out their food! Not realizing it was also connected to the supermarket we wandered the aisles for a bit before heading over to the cooked food cafe. My husband grabbed some olives and immediately started eating them while we sat in the grill area--10/10 no regrets. We ordered the babaganoush, garlic spread, and a falafel sandwich. While we weren't huge fans of the pita (very bready), the dips were so good they made up for it. Great food, great market vibes, and a fun place to try something new!

This place has been a family favorite for sometime but this evening it was a very disappointing…read moreexperience with my take out order. Half the items were missing from the order. I ordered a Falafel pita pocket with fries. No fries were put in and when I realized it, drove back 10 mins to pick up and was handed a box of cold ready fries. I also ordered the Great Greek rice bowl and reached home to see the rice itself missing. Just had to do with the salads. It would help if the order could be checked before handing it over. Love this place but hope for better service in future.

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.

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.

I ordered the Falafel King Combo without the salad, and they were gracious enough to give me extra…read morehummus instead. Every single item in the combo was extraordinary. The creamy hummus, robust baba ganoush, crispy, flavorful falafel, and soft, moist, & warm dolmas. I avoid gluten so I requested no pita bread. I bought a side of the saffron rice instead. I always taste a restaurant's rice by itself before mixing it with anything else. If a restaurant has delicious & flavorful rice, it is usually a telltale sign that they can truly cook good food. I do not know what they put in this rice (I was told by the manager on site that day that there is no dairy/butter or animal broth in their rice), but it was very good just by itself. And this tells you all you need to know about the food here. I took a to-go menu, which had a little story about the Falafel King owner's humble and calamitous beginnings. Honestly, it brought me to tears. But it made me even happier to support this local business.
