    A toothpick
    George F.

    My first time there, I ordered a Gyro. First off, the manager on duty was training a new employee. He seemed more interested to continue the training than serving me, the customer. He also was short in service. I asked him if they have a standard Greek Gyro, chicken Souvlaki based. He said "our Gyros are the best, what can I order for you". I chose the lamb. A Greek Gyro will have garlic, oregano, lemon, olive oil base marinated in beef, chicken, and lamb. Comes w tzatziqui , tahini, and maybe tabouli. Anyway, I get home, start eating and find a toothpick in my wrap. I called to complain, told "sorry I was training a new employee" . No offer of a replacement, refund. I will never ent the store again.

    When this place popped up in my list I knew I had to go there. I am a sucker for gourmet food supply shops and Mediterranean food! The shop is small but has a surprisingly large selection that includes house made take home meals like soups and lasagna to spices, pastas, dried beans, etc. We ordered the sample platter with hummus and a chicken gyro. The hummus was smooth, like it should be, meaning not like the stuff you get from a supermarket. This is always a great sign. It was well executed but nothing I would drive out of my way to get. I tend to like hummus with a bit of garlic and a hint of lemon. This was the more neutral flavored hummus, which has its place, it just isn't my favorite. The falafel was excellent and for me, the star of the show. It is what I'll get next trip. The chicken gyro was mediocre. It had nice chunks of chicken. I don't think it was souvlaki or if it was it was a mildly flavored version. I just didn't fill my two expectations for gyros. They must not have any of that sliced gyro meat like you'd get from a fair stand gyro vendor which it passed. Second is I expect a lot of big and even slightly bold flavor. It did not pass the second requirement. All in all, great little gourmet food supply shop that had me leaving with bags of items and a decent lunch!

    Beef gyro
    Liz L.

    Ordered a beef gyro, very delicious but nothing mind blowing. Would definitely come back to try more items, the cafe is situated in a cute little market and I wish I had more time to look around as it seems like the place to go for authentic Mediterranean oils, deli items, recipe books, etc. The staff was friendly and there were tables and utensils out for people to dine in.

    Such a great little find on South Campus. This little grocery/restaurant is a great stop for all things Mediterranean. They have a small grocery with ingredients and spices, they also sell wine so it's a one stop shop for all your needs! I was especially happy to see that they sell homemade frozen meals and refrigerated soups for grab and go. We got the sample platter and loved all the flavorful dishes it showcased! I highly recommend and I will be back to try more!

    Greek salad with beef gyro
    Mary W.

    Had high hopes but was disappointed. The market was great, and gal on the phone friendly. However my salad was quite sad and soggy and both my requests for no onions and dressing on the side didn't happen. I also ordered a large salad and it was pretty small. The beef was cold and there wasn't a lot of it.

    Fresh baklava and Turkish coffee
    Michael B.

    Great spot for authentic fresh Lebanese food . Everything I have tried here has been authentic and tasted home made. 2 types of authenticity when talking abt ethnic food : home made tasting food and restaurant tasting food . This place most certainly serve home made/healthy food . I ordered lamb shawarma , which was well spiced and lean . Hummus was a s good as it gets . Portions were generous. Baklava was fresh out of the oven made with walnut; u can can taste a slight kick of rose water in the filling which is a trademark of home made baklava( u may wanna ask what day they make them and call in for pick up from their fresh badge !) . Portions are very generous. Turkish Coffee is a must . Owners and cooks were extremely friend and helpful . Prices are very reasonable , they have a nice seating area. The place is very quiet . Overall I would definitely try multiple items on their menu and see whatever tickles ur fancy . They have a lot of authentic items make sure you venture a little outside of the classics .
