Great new place for me, love a good gyro! Asked for lamb & beef. Not very busy, got there about 1/2 hour before closing.

Colleen L.

Light, fresh, garlicky. I ordered online directly from the store. It was super easy and uncomplicated. I went to pick it up and it was ready to go. I was only in there for a minute tops but I did note that it wasn't the largest place. The individual I interacted with to get my order wasn't super friendly but wasn't rude either. So I can't really speak on the service or overall atmosphere. Food: I ordered the gyro sandwich. You get a choice of beef, lamb, or chicken. I went with lamb. It's served with lettuce, tomato, onions, and a specialty sauce. I ordered mine with the sauce on the side to prevent sogginess. It came with a choice of rice or hummus and I went with the hummus. The gyro was averaged size. The pita bread was good and the veggies were fresh. The lamb was good. The sauce has a lot of flavor and is very herbaceous. The sandwich is pretty dry without it so I definitely recommend it. The gyro was not greasy or heavy but there was a lot of garlic. It would make a good lunch but make sure to have a mint at minimum if you're planning on going back to the office. The hummus was also good and there was a generous portion, I needed more pita bread! I did feel that the price point is a bit high. The sandwich with a side was about $14. If you want a sandwich with a soup or salad will run you between $21-$24. Similar establishments have a sandwich that comes with a side plus a soup or salad for around $13. And for me, Kinzi was not any better than the place I'm referencing. Overall: 7/10

I'm writing this review stuffed to the brim full of Mediterranean food. This morning, as with most Saturdays, me and the old ball and chain were training to decide what to eat for lunch and this dude of mine says "Mediterranean food...I want hummus, I want olives, I want Turkish coffee." Say no more, love of my life...I have Yelp. First, I was not prepared for the prices. In today's economy, I was BLOWN AWAY at how reasonable their prices were. We got all this food, dessert and Turkish coffee for right at $35 (pre-tip.) We started with Turkish coffee (I saved mine until the end of the meal to eat with dessert and it was perfect drinking temperature) wanted to try a bit of everything so we got the Greek Sampler and the Gyro pizza. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. The meats were seasoned to perfection and juicy. The hummus and baba ghanouj were smooth and a perfect pairing with the pita, which managed to be slightly crispy on top and pillowy soft underneath which was both impressive and delectable! Dessert was a trio of philo dough temptations that balanced out beautifully with the richness of the Turkish coffee. We loved the food, enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and our server was very nice and tentative without being intrusive! Altogether, we had a wonderful experience and will definitely remember this next time we go back! PS...special mention to that gyro pizza, the mozzarella on that is special, truly a gem.

TL;DR: Was looking forward to trying out Kinzi based on the reviews but there are much stronger Mediterranean restaurants around the KC metro for the price (recommendations at the bottom). If you end up trying Kinzi anyway, I'd recommend the gyros and the baba ganoush, which both had this great smokiness throughout. My friends and I came and ordered the Lamb Kabobs, the Beef Shawarma, and the Greek Sampler, which has baba ganoush, dolma, gyro, tzatziki, and hummus. Nothing was particularly wrong flavor-wise, but the lamb kabobs came out tough and dry, the dolma and pita were remarkably similar in appearance and taste to grocery store dolma (Trader Joe's) and pita, and overall I wished that there was more of everything. The price is slightly lower than other Mediterranean restaurants in the area, but the portions are much smaller than they appear across the board. Ambiance-wise, it was also a weird place, with a strange mix of décor and condiments (first time I've ever seen sriracha at a Mediterranean restaurant). The place was completely empty except for one girl at the counter who disappeared into the back whenever she wasn't bringing food out. No complaints about the service but definitely not a date night spot. Overall, not a bad experience but wouldn't come back. If you're looking for an alternative, I'd recommend Meddy's in north OP for something fast and easy or for something more authentic and local, Queen of Mediterranean (Lenexa), Holy Land Cafe (Lenexa), or Yafa Cafe (Overland Park).

I ended up getting this delivered, and it came perfectly! I got the gyro with lamb/beef gyro meat, hummus, and baklava. Everything was so delicious, the hummus is super creamy, and the baklava was a perfectly sweet and nutty bite at the end of my meal!

Jaden L.

This was my second time to Kinzi. The lamb and beef gyros are delicious. It's the go to gyro that's close to me. The rice wasn't as flavorful as the 1st time, though still good. It is a family owned restaurant which is definitely a plus for me to support. Service was prompt. Menus were kinda stuck to the tablecloth but it could be the cleaner they used. I will go back to get another gyro.

On a recent visit to the Mission area of town, we were on the hunt for something yummy for the whole family... Enter Kinzi! Lots of great reviews, awesome location on Johnson Drive, and a super yummy-looking menu brought us here for lunch on a late 2023 Friday. The dining room is nice, comfortable, and clean - very standard fare for a strip mall setup. It's open seating inside, so we grabbed a comfy booth on the wall, and were promptly provided menus and waters. Three out of four of us ordered miscellaneous, myriad, Mediterranean meats and eats. Our "picky" eater always provides us a bit of a challenge. Upon asking, our waitress graciously agreed to a "plain rice-and-chicken" dish that the kitchen could whip up to satisfy his tastebuds. Perfect! All the food came out quickly, and was utterly, absolutely delicious! I asked for extra spice in my biryani, and I'm glad I did, as even with the "extra", it was what I would rate a moderate-mild level of spice. But, said biryani, falafel, all dips, gyro and rice were all fantastic! Our waitress appeared to be the only person working the entire dining room, so, while she kept pretty busy, it did make for slightly slow service at each table. Prices were on par with what you would expect - not high, not low. Family of four with entrees for all, one appetizer, and waters all around ended up at ~$75 including tip. Food = 5/5 Facility = 4/5 Service = 3/5 Ambiance = 3/5 Value = 3/5

They charged me $6.99 for two, bite-sized pieces of baklava.

David R.

Prices are too high for the amount of food you get. Seven dollars for two pieces of baklava is too high.

JoAnn R.

Great authentic Mediterranean cuisine. The hummus and pita were fresh and excellent flavor. The saffron rice has a nice spice and flavor to it as well. Overcooked the lamb a bit to my taste but my husband liked it with the crunch. Great place to grab a gyro or a plate to go. Not a great ambience for dining room as it is old and dated, smoky from cooking but the service was really good.

Natalie S.

I really wanted to like this place. I am always looking to try something new! I ordered off of grubhub for pickup for an early dinner/ late lunch. I liked the hummus a lot! After that it kinda stops there. There's nothing nice about the ambiance of the restaurant, but I wasn't eating there so it doesn't matter to me. The worker I interacted with was not particularly friendly. I got an assortment platter. The baba ghanoush did not taste very good and was too lumpy. And then the meat was dried out and actually pretty gross. I don't think I will be back as I have my favorite places for similar food around town.

Rachel H.

Carry out review: Amazing Baba Ghanouj! It was so fresh and flavorful. I would have preferred a bit less oil though. :( it came with about 12 small triangles of pita. I could have used quite a few more for the amount of baba ghanouj. The service was quick and the employees were kind. However, the restaurant was a bit of a mess. Maybe they were short handed that night? About 5 dirty tables in the dining room. Also, the women's bathroom soap was out. But seriously - the baba ghanouj - I need to get back there ASAP for some more of that!! Lots of fresh food options!

Spanakopita & Greek Sampler:

Hummus, baba ghanouj, stuffed grape leaves, and gyro meat topped with feta cheese served with tzatziki.

I love Kinzi! It might be a tie for #1 with 'Greek Cuisine', which also has great food of this type, but Kinzi maybe gets a slight edge, because I get the cezve (?) pot of turkish coffee at Kinzi, and a small cup of the Greek coffee at Greek Cuisine. I'm not complaining. :-) They are both great! Service is alway good, and very accomadating about to-go-containers.

I am becoming obsessed with this local little Mediterranean spot in Mission. Kinzi is located amongst other businesses just off Johnson Drive and I have visited for lunch many times. If there is any drawback, it's that you may wait just a bit to order or be seated. It is a fairly small business and the person who takes your order may also be the person who prepares it. No matter, it is worth the wait and the food is absolutely delicious. I am particularly fond of the chicken gyro plate. The meat if so flavorful, served with a basmati rice full of fresh vegetables, fresh hummus and pita bread, and their "signature" sauce that may quite possibly be the most amazing thing ever! If you love garlic, then you will love this sauce. The chicken shawarma is also delicious. Kinzi is a healthy, friendly, unique alternative for lunch, dinner, or carryout. Give it a try!

We ordered takeout and were super impressed with the quality and quantity of the food. We ordered the baba ghanoush, chicken kabobs, and lamb shawarma plate. All were delicious with great sauces to accompany the dishes, along with rice and fresh veggies. We will definitely be ordering from here again (and prefer to support a local business instead of a national chain like Zoe's- we feel like the quality was better, too). read more

The Price of the menu items are appropriate for the generous portions they serve. We had plenty of left overs. We ordered lentil soup, grape leaves, hot Turkish tea and the Greek sampler plate. The baba ghanouj and hummus is delicious: The gyro meat was so moist and tender. Really enjoyed the grape leaves too. The baklava was also very good: buttery and fresh tasting. read more

This is NOT just another Mediterranean restaurant!!! The flavors are quite nice and light. I enjoyed the freshness in the ingredients and preparation. The lentil soup is delicious with the aroma of perfectly blended spices. The falafel was crispy on the outside and fabulous in the inside. The tabouli salad was delightful. The chicken and beef Shawarma plates were well seasoned. Got to try their desserts, their rose water and honey baklava was divine. I can't say enough of the freshness in eating the food.

Are you tired of mediocre gyros with sub par proteins and not so fresh ingredients? Well look no further because Kinzi checks none of those boxes. Hands down the best gyro in Kansas/Missouri and you can quote me on that. I can also vouch for their homemade Baba ghanouj and fresh hummus, they're both fantastic. Oh yeah and if you're thinking about getting a side of rice I would say go for it! It's light and fluffy with a mild spiciness to it. I cannot stop coming to this place! read more

I appreciated the authenticity of food…read more Chicken shawarma bowl was good, but very basic and small. And $14.99 for a small bowl of mostly rice. Mediterranean market on 23rd is much better and less expensive.

Their hummus is a dream, and my Sumac chicken was yummy, but the biggest hit for me was the side salad, perfectly fresh and crisp lettuces and veg and loved the dressing! One of the best green salads I've had in any restaurant in KC.

We had an engagement right down the street so this was the perfect time. We had the grape leaves, hummus, tabouli and kifta plate. It was all great! We both agreed the hummus is among the best we've ever had. We prefer it to be tahini heavy (rather than garlic or spices) and this one is. It's creamy and perfect. Beautifully presented! The tabouli was HUGE! I wish they had a half portion. It was too much for 2 of us. But absolutely delicious! The grape leaves were good, but nothing special. The kifta plate was excellent!! Wonderful ground beef mixture and just what one expects with this classic dish. Steamed vegetables and rice with a mousses on top were a perfect complement to the beef. Service was quick and efficient. Glad we went early as the neighborhood gem fills up quickly on a Friday night. 5 stars. We will return and try more of the extensive menu.

From the soft pita to the not overly sweet but flavorful drinks, to the unbelievable flavor and texture combinations. I usually get the harissa avocado chicken bowl, which is phenomenal! Today I tried the newer Garlicky Chicken Shawarma - it's the same bowl concept and it was amazing! The chicken was NOT the same spicier chicken in the Harissa bowl (the harissa honey chicken - although I think I prefer the heat and the flavor of this one!) I'd recommend this Chipotle-like set-up for Mediterranean food to anyone and everyone! Always a fave. Service was a little lackluster, but the two folks we spoke with did respond kindly, even if they were just having an average work night.

We shared the Meddys Main Plate with chicken and it was easily one of the best Greek meals I've had. The vegetables were flavorful and perfectly cooked, the baba ghanoush was phenomenal, and the chicken was tender and seasoned so well.

Plenty of seating options though. Tables, booths, bar, and a covered patio. Already planning my return.

Being the romantic sort, I took my wife here on Valentine's Day. I made the right move, for once…read more We loved it. We had the tilapia plate and falafel combo. Both delicious. What really stood out, though, was the fava plate appetizer. It's a dip that comes with pita bread but it's not like hummus. You could eat it with a spoon. It could be a meal, a very tasty one. You order at the counter, then wait at your table, listen to some middle eastern grooves and a short time later a super friendly server brings your food. The place is great!

The hummus is also hot, fresh, and delicious, and the pita bread is soft and warm, which makes everything even better. There are many different serving options to choose from, so it's easy to find something you'll love. They bring your food to the table, but service beyond that is limited--however, the workers are always super nice and welcoming, which we really appreciate. Overall, it's a consistently great spot that we'll keep coming back to.

I absolutely love their lemonades, for just 5 dollars you get a big cup of to-die-for lemonade.....and a free refill to take with you! It tastes fresh and immediately refreshes you. We ordered the pita pizza, falafel and baba ganoush, and built a bowl with yellow rice and gyro. Everything was delicious and had us full and satisfied. Their gyros by itself is also as delicious. I'm also going to go ahead and say they have amazing hummus, fresh pita bread, and delicious falafels. Their pita pizza is good and appetizing just not the best. They also have big portions which is always a plus The service here is a 5/5 on its own. Our waiter was always available, had us taken care of as soon as we walked in, accommodated all of my needs when it came to my food, and answered all of our questions.

Went here for the first time and it was great! Food was tasty and at a reasonable price. I had the gyro sandwich, well seasoned meat, it was a little messy to eat but that's all gyro's I eat. My only complaint is that the booths could use an update as the one I sat in moved every time the person on the other side of the booth moved. read more

This place is a great place to take a date and be able to just sit and quietly enjoy the company. The owner is a great waiter, he will let you sample if you are not sure about what you want. The place has great food. Great prices. You should check it out! read more
