Chicken Kabab Platter
Victoria W.

Was in the area and saw this spot with great reviews, so I thought I'd check it out! Ian was such a gem and helped me get the best meal tailored to my likes! He was amazing. I was really excited about trying a bunch of the dips but also wanted to get the shawarma and he helped me make a custom platter. And omg! It was AMAZING! Great value for money, great flavor, great vibe! Can't wait to be back. If you're in the area, check it out!!

Chicken Shawarma Sandwich

WOW! Hands down one of the best chicken shawarma sandwiches I have ever eaten! Fries were fresh and not greasy and refreshing ice cold water! Friendly staff and clean restaurant! Don't miss this spot super close to ATL airport, I highly recommend!

I can't really speak on the service or ambiance since my boyfriend picked up the food for us. However, the food itself was the most inauthentic and dry Mediterranean food I've ever eaten. The presentation looks delicious and portions are obviously very well served, but I guess they had to make up for their lackluster taste and quality. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma Platter sans hummus, extra rice instead. The chicken was ok. It was barely seasoned, pretty dry, and tasted better when I ate it cold if I'm going to be completely honest. Yes, it LOOKS seasoned, or maybe that's just the char on the chicken, but I promise you, it's not. The rice, I'm pretty sure just had turmeric on it for the color, because it had absolutely no flavor, not even a pinch of salt, and tasted dry and like it had been sitting out for hours. Almost stale. The only saving grace was the warm and soft pita bread and their garlic sauce. That's literally it. Very disappointing and definitely not worth the hype. Maybe their chicken kabob is better? Don't know and will most likely not try it. Have never had Mediterranean food this flavorless and dry. And it definitely did not taste authentic.

We needed a meal in route to our house and pointed our GPS toward another local place but decided to try this instead. We were convinced we'd get our food quicker here and that it would be flavorful. We were mostly correct: the service was good, we ordered quickly and our food came out in about 8-10 minutes. The shawarma platter was a good amount of chicken, rice, and hummus but there were only two triangle pita slices. I loved that the pitas were warm! The chicken and rice needed salt; I added some to the portion I ate at the restaurant and other seasonings to the portion I took home and ate the next day. The salt brought the flavor out better. I really loved the spread they brought with it, but my husband didn't like his, so mixed reviews there. The restaurant is designed and decorated really nicely, but it wasn't as clean as it could have been. Also the restroom (one, single use, all gender) was not clean. The toilet seat was full of water and it made me pivot and exit before I even fully entered. Parking is easy. There's a large shared lot.

Super delicious and freshly made. Met a new friend we made before it was time to catch a flight back to PHX and this place was close and good reviews. So glad we picked it as the seasoning was delicious the space sets the scene and the ingredients are the star. Delicious from start to finish and some unique hot sauce I've never had back home that was very delicious with just the right heat so it complimented the food perfectly if you like some kick.

3 Piece Lamb Chops

Great portions and good food. Rice was a little bland and the hummus was ok, but I liked the sides being offered as part of the meal. Lamb was a good flavor and cooked well. I also enjoyed the mint tea.

Decent! Not the best in the world but pretty good, and walkable from a ton of the hotels in the area. The hummus and pita made the platter worth getting. Came to I want to say $22 after getting a bottle of water also, so it's not cheap.

Decided to try something new this Saturday. I ordered my food from Uber eats. I have never eaten lamb before so I decided I was going to give it a shot. I was undecided as to what I wanted so I ordered three different things. 1. Falafel 2. Grilled Veggie Plate 3. Lamb Chops When I open the platters I felt like the colors just jumped out at me. The veggie plate was beautiful. It consisted of grilled tomato bell peppers squash and maybe zucchini I'm not sure. I asked them to add onion because I love onion. It was on top of a bed of yellow rice. It also had I'm assuming was Hummus on the side and pita bread. This was very delicious and much needed today. The lamb chops. I was apprehensive because I was told lamb can have a gamey wild taste, however that was not the case with these chops. They were flavorful, I could taste the Rosemary and the thyme, they will also tender and not overdone. Delicious. It also came with the rice and the hummus and the pita bread and it also came with a sauce. I don't know the name of the sauce but I pretty much didn't use it. In between eating those two different dishes because yes I did try both of them, I also have falafel. Very tasty. I was very pleased with my meal and I will definitely try them again and maybe even stopping to the restaurant.

Just a small place in this newer building in the area. When you walk in the smell hits you and you know you have struck gold! Amazing Mediterranean food! I got the Beef Kafta plate. It was super yummy. The rice was literally some of the best I have ever had! The hummus was good too. Great place if you are in the area. I will be back for sure!

There's a…read morecouple of other spots there but I've actually only been to a few of them and this is one of my favorites . You know where this is so you know that you're gonna have to worry about paying for parking because look at the area that you're in. Just keep that in mind but there are plenty of parking structures around . The service was great. The two women that were working the front were excellent and they helped me along trying to make my decision. They were super nice and friendly and definitely worth speaking to because of their friendly demeanor . Everything I've had here has been great, absolutely amazing. I'm really hard on Mediterranean food only because where I grew up it was easy to find Mediterranean food because so many people from that side of the world put roots there. Finding some good chicken shawarma was easy. I haven't actually found a lot of that around the Atlanta area but there are a few good ones. This one is solid and did not miss. I loved it and I would definitely go back. Chicken shawarma (platter) - so the platter comes with two sides and an entrée. Everything was good. The chicken shawarma was very good and flavorful and it was super tender and I love that because it wasn't like it was sitting there all day. It was something I would definitely go back for. I may even get a wrap next time but the actual platter served me really well and it was great. roasted potatoes - my first side was potatoes and it's hard to mess up roasted potatoes. You just season it and stick it in the oven I guess but either way they were very moist and you got plenty of them. They were seasoned very well Grilled veggies - the grilled veggies were pretty good. I mean I have nothing to complain about. They were vegetables and they were seasoned as well so nothing wrong with that but they were just vegetables. It's not like it was a main course kind of situation but for a side they were a really good side choice . Creamy chicken soup - now let me get to the star of the show. This soup is amazing to me. I don't know what it is about it. Maybe it has something in it but it is amazing. I could actually get a big bowl of it and call it a day. The soup is creamy and savory and has bits of the chicken in there so it's also seasoned very well. I don't know what it is about this soup but this soup is gold to me. In any event yes I liked everything I got, yes I would go back, yes the soup is amazing, all the things LOL. They have a rosemary chicken that is supposed to be the best seller but I didn't come for that. I would definitely try that next time. I was very satisfied with what I got!

From the moment I entered, the staff were most welcoming. The place is gorgeous appointed, and the menu had plenty of vegetarian items to select from. I went with the traditional stuffed grape leaves, cheese cigars, and a spread made with eggplant. I have to say, I had low expectations here in Atlanta for Turkish cuisine, but was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. Atlanta, you are fortunate to have an authentic Turkish place in your midst. The owner came by to my table and I shared with him some photos I had taken on my journey. The waitress even offered me a complimentary drink for sharing my photos with her. This is exactly what being in Turkey is like. Good people, great food, and kindness abound. Go.

I was soooooo excited because now I don't have to drive to Fairburn to get it. Anywho, I decided to check and see if they were open today and YES THEY WERE!! I jumped for joy inside lol. This location is really clean you can smell the food when you walk into Walmart. You place your order on the order kiosk. I went for my regular order; chicken shawarma bowl and a chicken shawarma mini pita. And because I love love love their cups, I got a large drink. Because they didn't have options to put my sauce on the side or choose a shawarma bowl (had to order a chicken bowl) I spoke with the gentleman to update my order and make changes. He was professional, attentive, and personable. The gentleman repeated everything I wanted to update on my order and went to making it. I sat down for maybe 10mins and my food was ready. He waved to me and once again repeated everything that I ordered and the adjustments to my order. I left and sped home lol. When I say I was too excited to bite into my mini pita and stuff my face... I was ready ready lol. Now onto the food...... that mini pita didn't stand a chance. It is mini, but its flavor is HUGE!! The perfect combination of meat, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and that special sauce. Three or four bites and it was GONE lol. My bowl is always amazing. I get my sauce on the side because I usually eat mine in two different portions. Let's just say.... If you're a "Pita" fan like I am.... Run down to College Park Walmart and get some!!!! Staff is friendly, establishment is clean, and the food is WONDERFUL!!!
