The "feast" - the rice was absolutely fabulous and would eat that again and again. However the meal contained *very* little meat and was almost all rice. It was also missing some falafel and contained only one rather than the pictured 3. The meat itself (both beef and chicken) was flavorful, well-seasoned and had good texture but such a tiny, tiny amount for the price. The one falafel it came with was ok in flavor but was mostly soggy from being smothered in the garlic sauce which was both unexpected and undesirable. The hummus tasted fine but was pure liquid which I am not used to. The pita was fine, neither was it good or bad. I rarely review unless I'm blown away or super disappointed. 3 stars because the rice and meat had good flavor - but the execution was terrible and the outcome was super disappointing for the price. Overall not a good experience and I won't be back. Too bad, I was so excited for this place.

Good luck figuring out when this place is open. I cannot tell you how many times I have called or…read morewas waiting outside when they were supposed to be open. Whatever is listed online is not accurate it seems. No voicemail with hours, nothing on the door. Facebook will show they are currently open when they are not. They are not always open when Google or Yelp says they are, so who knows? Not reliable at all. Overall, the food is average. The shish tawook sandwich, baklava, ghallaba, and hummus are good though. Here is some info from previous experiences... I got an order with half the items missing once and have received the wrong order other times as well. I do not like the lentil soup here. I got the lemon tawook and it was way too salty, and I like my salt. Salad is just ok, not worth what they charge. I got a side of beef skewer one day and it was fatty and low quality. Potassium broth is mostly carrot juice here and they put it in 2 cups instead of plastic bottles like other places do. I am used to the Mediterranean food in Dearborn and this is not great. Cheesesticks were gross. It was an odd texture like sawdust/mealy. It did not come with any sauce. Just weird. Unfortunately, this is the only Mediterranean place in the area.

Oh. My. Heavens. For…read morethose that don't know, I will only leave a review if I'm extremely impressed or very disappointed and dissatisfied. I'm a huge snob, even when it comes to dive restaurants. I have resolved to only write positive reviews on places that I believe truly deserve the praise they have earned. This is one of those places. This joint is completely unassuming. Sparse decoration, low drop-tile ceiling, brightly lit (too bright for your usual Mediterranean joint), HDTV menus near the front register... But, does a restaurant need anything other than a great menu and delicious, freshly prepared, well-spiced fare to be an amazing experience? I answer loudly "NO!" This restaurant is wonderful. They serve some of the best Mediterranean food I've had, and I've been many places throughout the US and internationally. Finding this in my own back yard makes me so happy to live in GR. My wife and I split the spicy feta fries, which neither of us could stop shoving in our mouths. Now, a bit about me - I survived a massive heart attack five years ago. Five bypasses. Month in a coma. Six months learning to walk again. I SHOULD NOT BE EATING FRIES!! And yet... I couldn't help myself. Each bite was perfection in crispy potato form. And a heavy garlic presence. The toum is worth it. Completely worth it. Gives Sheshco a serious run for best in town. Not greasy or too "mayonnaise-y." She had the shish tawook ("chicken kabob") and I had a gyro pita. Her chicken was stunningly tender and temptingly well-seasoned. Rice was floral and delicious. Hummus, not quite garlicky enough, but smooth and refreshing. And the Nutella cheesecake was heavy and smooth and wonderful. My gyro was obviously done in-house, same as the pickled turnips ("liyft"). love pickled turnips, and I truly believe that these aren't the commercially available jarred ones. Gyro meat was well-spiced, perfectly tasty and amazingly tender. The service was warm and friendly. Wife and I will be back again...and again. We hope to see you there!! Worth a drive and some time. Bring an empty tummy and get ready to enjoy!!

I ordered the Aladdin's Combo and small hummus to get a sample of what they do...and I cleaned all the plates without a problem. Often times with Mediterranean cuisine I feel like the meats get dried out. Not here, that was the juiciest lady's I've ever had. I grabbed a piece of strawberry casada (sp?) cake to go. It's all so good. When they brought my food I noticed how juicy everything was...and the aroma! The smell of everything was enough to happy about. Best part, Jazmin took care of me. She is a young mother with endless smiles and great service. She knows the menu well and will remind you of the classic service we all love. Thank you Jazmin! Congrats on your little one.

After all the years of spending summers out here, there is not a single time where service was lacking. The food is always phenomenal. The kebab combo is one that I always seem to navigate too. It's plenty of food. My dad and I have finally learned after all these years that if we split a salad and a kebab combo, that it's the right amount of food for the two of us to not feel like we're going to explode. On this most recent trip, we got the baklava with strawberries. The baklava was just made fresh and was still warm. This was life-changing for me. I never once thought about heating up baklava??? It melted in my mouth. It was such an incredible finale to such a delicious dinner. I will always, always, ALWAYS stop for a meal at Cafe Gullistan.

I only ate about half and it tasted great leftover, too. (It is NOT like pizza!) My friends both had the lentil soup and grape leaves and enjoyed both dishes. I've tried grape leaves before and don't care for them, but my friend convinced me to try it - and it was the best I've ever tried! The leaf wasn't tough and there was a nice wrapper to filling ratio. I knew I had to get the knafeh, again a dish I've seen on tv but never had. I was doing the Food Dance!
