We came for a late lunch (2pm) and enjoyed the place to ourselves (besides one other couple). Service was amazing; Pranitha was the sweetest! We ordered two entrees. The servers surprised us by bringing out a small sample of three of their dips which were delicious. My favorite was the black bean dip -- amazing. We had both a Chicken Shawarma Sandwich and Beef Kafta Sandwich. We enjoyed both equally. Great flavors and tender meat. I wish they had more sauce on the sandwiches themselves, but the garlic sauce provided helped cut the dryness. The fries were crispy as well. They have some unique and different options on their menu. I wish they had gyros. No frills, but a clean and quaint dining room. We would totally return, mostly due to the free appetizers and Pranitha's service ;)

I had the chicken shawarma sandwich combo, which came with fries, coleslaw, a side of picked carrots and sliced pickles and a drink for around $17. The drinks are canned, along with bottled water, and the sodas are mostly off brand (Sam's cola etc). Napkins are paper towels from the dispenser. The sandwich was good sized, fresh and hot, with a tzatziki sauce, and the fries were plentiful. Overall, an enjoyable meal, save for the drinks and "napkins".

My daughter had a gyro sandwich combo, for which she did not get her drink that was supposed to be included in it, and I got the liver kebab since it was a Sunday night and I wanted to try a specialty. Off the bat, the food was mediocre. The rice that came with my liver, which was way overdone, even though it was ordered medium rare, was extremely dry, and tasteless. The pieces of liver were hard to chew.. There was no sauce, and all in all, after two bites, I discarded my dinner. The lentil soup that I ordered, was thin and underwhelming. My daughter's Gyro sandwich was filled with only the stems of lettuce instead of lettuce leaves. The meat that came with it was rubbery and underseasoned. I will try to give this place another chance at some point, but not now. I will plan to dine there in person, to see if there would be any improvement in our meal. One of the improvements I plan to see is not being served only lettuce stems in any kind of Gyro that's ordered.

The combination of grilled chicken, portobello mushrooms, rice pilaf, vegetables, feta, and Greek dressing is always fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. While I'm not a fan of the roasted red pepper hummus that is included. When I tried it for first time I asked for it to be on the side, that's just a personal preference and doesn't take away from how much I enjoy the bowl overall. I have not ventured past the bowl really. The Greek fries are also delicious and make a great side. My coworker ordered the gyro and couldn't stop talking about how good it was. The portions are generous, the ingredients taste fresh, and the menu offers something for everyone. If you do not finish your meal while dining in, they have containers for your left overs. They offer a rewards program which I take advantage of for the $5 off and freebies after so many purchases.

I was excited to finally try this place even though I was warned about the baklavas being too dry. Sadly that's true. I dint think they are made fresh. They lack syrupy. I understand they don't have much food traffic but cutting down on the types of baklava and freshly making them should solve that problem. Probably the second worst baklava I've had out here. I see why they make shakes though. Since they don't sell ans have leftover stock. We initially sat down to eat but it was so awkward that there's no music and so quiet. My husband said they don't vacuum between the chairs which were full of crumbs. We eventually got our food to go. The second issue is the food. We got a sucuk flatbread and ans egg pide. This is not a pide, it's just pizza bread. Cheese is mozzarella, should have been beyaz cheese. Middle eastern cuisine doesn't use this cheese. My egg was raw and just throw in a corner. Could have saved myself money by just getting domino's, at least my food would be cooked. If you want quality, try Balkan treat box, Aya Sofia or Garbanzo. I would also like to state that there is one employee that works front and back. I didn't see him washing his hands once going back into the kitchen to handle my food.

When I walked in, I was surprised at how big it was. I took a gander at the menu and decided on the grilled chicken rice bowl and a small piece of the pistachio baklava all to go. It wasn't long until my food was ready and off I went. Since I was hungry, I figured I'd try the baklava to hold me over until I got home. To my surprise, it was freezing cold! I've never had cold baklava in my life, so suffice to say it was a bit unsettling. Since I was focusing on how cold it was, I couldn't even tell you if it was actually good. Since the baklava wasn't hitting, I was really hoping the bowl would but unfortunately, that, too, came up short. There was a garlic sauce on top but it did absolutely nothing for the bowl. I think the bowl lacked flavor and was disappointing considering how good it looks in all the pictures. While my first experience wasn't the best, I'd be willing to give them another shot but it won't be anytime soon.

Later that morning, I decided we should go there for lunch since Ms T was out to lunch (literally, this time) with a friend. As a result, KT and I ended up at Dinar, a first time for me. I have driven by many, many times and have not taken the time to investigate. I kind of assumed it was Indian cuisine or maybe pan-Mediterranean. I had no idea. She told me that they provide a complimentary small serving of the lentil soup with meals, but we asked for a large serving each and shared an Iraqi Chicken Tikka sandwich. The soup was delivered first, and I must say that it is very good. It has delicious chicken flavor and is not really spiced in any other way, although there is plenty of salt. We loved it. I shook on a little black pepper and really enjoyed it. It is simple, yet so good. The Chicken Tikka sandwich was ordered with their Iraqi bread, which I highly recommend. This sandwich is something I would also go back for. The chicken is well seasoned and grilled so that it has a good char-flavor. It is dressed, with pickle, onion, tomatoes and herbs. It is flavorful and the chicken is not dried out. There are a lot of things to try on their menu. If I can't get Ms T to go, I'm sure KT will meet me there occasionally. There have been several restaurants in this location over the past ten years or so. I hope that Dinar can succeed.
