MEH. Grain Bowls are 80% filled with rice and 20% filled with toppings and the toppings are small in weight. I'm allergic to feta so when I asked today if I could substitute it for another topping I was told "No" So basically I got 1 less than the # of normal toppings that comes with the bowl I paid for. Sometimes they act like it's a favor to be waiting on you. One bathroom is always down with a sign on it that says out of service. Music is loud in the dining room but when you get in to the bathroom, it will blast you out of there. Seriously. 3 visits. Not likely to return. read more

Food was delicious. Got two bowls, you choose what goes in it similar to a Chipotle. The portion, might not seem big as you assemble, but once your start eating you see it's actually a really good size. They have junior bowls, you get limited topping for this size. They also have wrap options as well. If you're craving a sweet treat they have cookies, but I highly recommend the baklava. Comes packaged with one classic and one chocolate. Both were really good. I went for the first time on a Sunday late afternoon. It wasn't busy and the staff was welcoming, and patience. Lots of seating, but took my order to go. read more

I visited this establishment for lunch twice in one week. The line moved quickly but I could detect some confusion on the prep side attempting to assemble what we ordered. I looked at the negative reviews and many referenced the portions being too small. I experienced the opposite. I could not finish my meal. The bowls were delicious and complex. I like this type of cuisine because of the taste variety. Bowls are enough for two. Nice staff, menu is on the pricey side. Okay price/value relationship if you share the order. read more

Overall- excellent food, kind and generous service, good price, cute casual ambiance, and fast! I've been to a couple of locations. It's always been empty, service has been fast, portion sizes have been generous, and the food has been delicious, balanced, and fun. I love how many toppings they have and how they don't limit you. They also come with delicious pitas. read more

This was my second time having Mezah, and I love it again. I came to this location on June 14th for the $3 bowl special with drink purchase. The restaurant was clean, the staff were welcoming, and the food was stocked. It was starting to get a little busy because of the special, but the line was moving smoothly. I enjoyed everything about my bowl when I got home. However, I was not a fan of the tahini sauce. Luckily, I got it on the side. read more

This gem literally around the corner from me is such a delight. The falafel Mediterranean yum located at Severna Parks Plaza Shopping Center. If you're in the mood to enjoy some fresh ingredients look no further. Try the falafel in a blanket, I highly recommend. Fresh broccoli's, hummus, red cabbage, beets..mmmmm; refreshing and full filling. There's also a unique selection of drinks. Staff are friendly and the staff try their very best to complete your orders despite language barrier! Def a place I will continue to check in. The dining area is spacious. I was able to eat and do a lil studying. Looking forward to trying out their entire menu. read more

I'll make this one short and sweet. I was in Severna Park and had a work lunch. We stopped in Mezeh for a healthy quick lunch. We came at the perfect time because as soon as we sat down the line grew. We were served quickly, the food was fresh and the team was nice.

Love Mediterranean food. "Chipotle style" line - you pick what you want going down the line. Can't go wrong with any combination of choices. Very glad to see one near by. Definitely in the rotation as it is a great healthy choice. Don't be intimidated, try a little something different each time ;) Portions could be a little bigger and are at other Mezehs . But overall after you get all the other ingredients it is a lot of food. Plus you can always ask for double protein and pay extra (for the frugal reviewer who commented on portion size).

There is no signage and I couldn't find the menu at first but I ended up making my own bowl so it didn't really matter. The people there were nice. The inside is really cute but I found the bench seat uncomfortable. I didn't have a drink but the lemonades looked good.

I love gyros. So I see this gyro on their menu for $15.45 plus tax. I figure a gyro for $15.45 has to be phenomenal, as I've never seen a gyro sandwich priced that high. A gyro platter, sure, that's easily $15-$20 depending on the place, but never just a sandwich. So I was pretty excited to dig into this golden gyro, but what I pulled out of the bag was shocking. What they sent was about the size and mass of a cheese panini, very flat, small and light like a folded mouse pad. If you've had gyro sandwiches then you know they have the size and weight of a loaded up burrito. This thing had its pita cut and filled with the contents inside the pouch, making the bread far too thin and soggy around the outside. They opened the pita and filled it. There's no room in there. It had the tiniest pittance of ingredients. That is not a gyro. To make it worse, the meat was dry and chewy, the rest was a slimy disgusting mess. I paid $15.45 plus tax for the worst thing someone's tried to pass off as a gyro. How does a Mediterranean place dork up a gyro? How on earth do they charge so much for it? read more

Upon entering, my friend and I were not greeted and had to wait quite some time to get our order taken. The restaurant was only open for about an hour and there was no one in front of us. The employees were less than enthusiastic when greeting us. I asked for my grains and proteins on the side and was told that I was going to be charged extra. I didn't ask for extra portions, just for it to be separate. I have been to similar places and never had to pay extra. At checkout I was not given a receipt either so I'm not sure how much extra I was charged. When I approached the counter to ask for lids, the employee that assembled my bowl saw me coming and went to the back. The man in the kitchen preparing food came up to help me. Customer service should get zero stars. The food was great though. Too bad. I will go to another location instead or another franchise completely. read more

We'd visited the previous restaurants in this spot and neither lasted so we were interested to see the changes. The restaurant itself is styled beautifully, not what you'd expect in a suburban shopping center. We opted for the Brussels and the short rib grilled cheese. Both were great. The Brussels were sliced, the balsamic glaze was really great. The short rib came on sourdough and I had low expectations: usually short rib on sandwiches (in my experience) is either dry or soaks through the bread, this sandwich was perfect! The short rib was really tender and flavorful, the bread was toasted but still soft. Perhaps the unsung hero of the meal were the fries and the malt vinegar aioli! The fries were incredible and the accompanying aioli was perfectly tangy, we couldn't stop eating them in spite of being full. Overall we were really pleased with our meal!

Unfortunately, it turned out to be one of the worst restaurant experiences we've had. Our waiter was extremely inattentive and confusing from the start. Several people at our table asked questions about a pasta dish that included meatballs and sausage, and none of us could get a straight explanation from him. He kept going around in circles trying to describe the dish, repeatedly mentioning there was a $2 difference depending on how many meatballs or sausage you received, but no one at the table could understand what he was actually explaining. In the end, both my sister and cousin basically gave up and just said, "Okay, whatever we want one meatball and one sausage." We later realized the "sausage" was actually ground sausage in the sauce -- not a sausage link as we had understood. He also repeatedly tried to upsell us on additional menu items we had clearly shown no interest in ordering. Instead of listening to what we actually wanted, it felt like he was more focused on pushing extra items onto the table. To make matters worse, my sister and cousin ordered the exact same dish, yet my sister received three meatballs while my cousin only received one. There was no explanation for the inconsistency. The service throughout the evening was terrible. Our waiter rarely checked on our table and disappeared for long stretches of time. We actually had to stop another employee walking by just to get boxes for our leftovers and a dessert menu. Meanwhile, the table next to us had a waitress who was attentive and constantly checking on them, which made the difference in service even more noticeable. At one point, our waiter mentioned they had a lot of walk-ins that evening. However, we had made reservations in advance for a birthday celebration, so that should not have affected the level of service we received. Even getting the check at the end took an unnecessarily long time after we finally managed to get his attention. Overall, the entire experience was disappointing, disorganized, and frustrating -- especially for what was supposed to be a special birthday dinner.

The bartenders are great and the atmosphere is always fun and lively. The Thursday half-price bottles of wine is always a wonderful treat too! If you have not been to The Social in a while, come back and give it a try for all the new fun and interesting menu options!

Great food! Great service! Fun place! This may be my favorite restaurant in the Pasadena area.read more

Grilled rib-eye, chicken, shrimp, Mexican sausage, cactus, and jalapeño poppers layered over melted cheese and chipotle sauce, all served in a sizzling molcajete. It comes with rice, beans, lettuce, guacamole, and sour cream. Price starts at $31.99. They offer three versions ranging from $31.99 to $39.99. We ordered the $39.99 option, and trust me--you'll need two take‑home boxes. If you enjoy hearty Mexican-style meat dishes, this one hits the mark. We loved it.

Garry's Grill & Catering

Still trying to find the charm of this place and what they're known for... I've been a few times…read morenow and service and food is always average. Breakfasts (eggs and such, haven't tried pancakes) are nothing special. Fresh half & half was appreciated, which they have. Stopped in recently and tried a panini and the lettuce wraps. Panini was very good. Fries that came with it were wet with grease... we didn't finish them. I feel like that's an oil temp issue but I'm no expert. Lettuce wraps sounded great on the menu but were served with dry flavorless chicken. Bland even with toppings provided. Didn't finish that dish either. The protein in lettuce wraps is supposed to be popping with flavor that shines through the lettuce and toppings. Not the case. I'll read through other reviews and try to find some gems. I love greasy spoons like this and I'm sure I'm just missing something. They have a large outdoor seating area when the weather is nice. Perhaps burgers and beers are in order.

I called to place the order, and the guy couldn't hear me. When I called back, there was silence on the line until I said "hello" a few times, followed by a blunt "Yeah, what can I do for you?" slightly off-putting, but I placed the order. When I arrived, the place was empty and looked clean. The food was ready, and I was in and out quickly. As for the food: The Fries: These were excellent. They were hot, well-seasoned, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. I really enjoyed them. The Burger: This was the letdown. I got the Black & Bleu, and while the toppings (bleu cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, brioche bun) were fresh and tasty, the meat itself was lackluster. They looked like two smash patties, but they had zero crust and absolutely no seasoning. No salt, no pepper, nothing. Honestly, if it weren't for the toppings, the burger would have been hard to eat because the meat was just plain and bland. I ate it because I was hungry, but for a "Pub and Ale House," the burger really needs to be seasoned properly. Between the awkward service and the flavorless patties, I can only give it 2 stars.

The food at Chris' is awesome. Today was my first visit. I intended to stop in for a light lunch…read morebut the menu has so many great options. I chose the falafel pita, and elected to make it a platter. Even with huge portions, the price was still a bargain. The Greek side salad was crisp and tasty. They brought out a bottle of house-made dressing. There were so many chunks of Falafel in the pita, and the mound of rice with it was huge (you can have fries instead). I enjoyed a beer with it and the frosty mug that came out with it actually had little icicles on the rim. My server was Billy, who was very friendly and attentive. I will have to get back there soon & take my husband next time.

My second favorite is the cheesesteak done with subbing it for chicken. It's cheesy and delish. Before you judge it's a normal menu item I am not being "extra". :) Hence this place is a wonderful, wonderful place for quick eats to go. Multiple locations and priced at a reasonable enough price to come biweekly.

Jeremy and I were driving to Pasadena, and I noticed a sign that a new Halal place had opened up in the shopping center where Dave's Hot Chicken (so good!! Check out my review!) Is located... in the same shopping center as hibachi buffet (see my review!)... across the street from Little India (see my review)... our friend Aimee had just told me about her love of falafel, and Naz's let's you buy just the falafel, without having to buy an entree. I mean, we bought entrees, but I like options. So I had the combo meat gyro, with lamb and beef, and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. The pita bread was lovely and soft. The meat was tender and deliciously spiced. Jeremy had one, too, but without lettuce. Jeremy also had the combo meat rice platter and I haven't seen him that happy to eat something in a long time. I'm pretty stoked that Naz's has locations everywhere, including right down the street from my apartment on Merritt Blvd.

The beef was juicy with a nice char, and the ground beef skewer was well‑seasoned with that classic kabob flavor. Portions are generous--definitely enough for a full meal and possibly leftovers if you're not super hungry. For the price, I felt like I got solid value for the amount and quality of food. Casual counter service, food came out hot and in a reasonable time. If you want a no‑nonsense, tasty kabob plate that lets you try a bit of everything, Combo #1 is an easy go‑to order here.

The quality used to be drastically better as far as taste, size, and freshness. It's overcooked often now. Hard. Flavorless. I still order it because it's the closest Persian food around. But it's crazy to see how much it's changed. The bread used to be made fresh at each location. Warm fresh unlimited bread. Now it's just basic bread shipped in. No fresh noon. I am writing specifically to say that I ordered delivery and my food was cold when I received it. Room temp at best. When paying 60-100 dollars for a meal, I expect it to be warm or hot. Pretty disappointing.

Weird location for…read morewhat seems like a converted house/restaurant for a nicer upscale place but it was very impressive on the inside. Parking was tricky and tucked away on the back side. Unfortunately the food is kind of an important aspect of the whole "dining experience" and Paul's gastronomic offering simply did not impress. I ordered the soft shell crab sandwich which was deep fried and unimpressive. It tasted more like cornbread and oil than crab. M-in-law ordered the wilted spinach salad which was also just "ok". My 10y/o ordered the chicken parm which was likely some of the worst pasta I've ever consumed at a nicer restaurant. He complained that the sauce tasted like chemicals and he's usually not picky and will eat anything. I assumed he was exaggerating, tried the sauce and noted that it was flavored overwhelmingly with a bitter spice that I couldn't put my finger on. Aside from the poor food the service was decent and the prices were reasonable for the area. Would not try again on our next visit to Annapolis.

They also ordered an order of Sweet Potato Fries with melted butter and cinnamon sugar on the side. This was such an interesting combination, which he really likes. My husband and I decided to try the Shrimp Salad with no bread. He had his with tomato and onion rings and I had mine with lettuce, tomato and Sweet Potato Fries. The shrimp salad was a generous portion that was perfectly seasoned. They serve their drinks in small pitchers. To finish, we had the Lemon Cheesecake and Aunt Louise dessert which was a Smith Island Cake that was beyond decadent - it was a chocolate peanut butter cake. We all thoroughly enjoyed our lunches.
