Immediately treated as if we were regulars, with heaping portion sizes. Nicest staff I think i've ever encountered. I may not be back in Champaign soon but when I am I absolutely will be returning

In terms of Shawarma, it gets the job done, but it is nothing special at all. The staff in my…read moreexperience is nice. I only go here if I need something to eat quickly and the union is nearby. If anyone wants more authentic Shawarma, I would say the Jerusalem Cafe is your best bet on campus .

Not worth the price. I have had quite a fair share of…read moreMediterranean foods in my life and the food here was extremely mediocre. I had gotten the "plate" option with falafel, and the falafel was extremely dry, and I know falafel is usually dry but this was hard to swallow without about 10 cups of water. Also, I had gotten nearly all of the sauces and they were pretty bland to me personally. The workers were very kind and quick however, I believe 9 dollars for this small and not incredibly flavorful meal is far too much.

The rock has one of the best burgers in central Illinois! The fries are also really good!…read more The owners are awesome! Ordered carry out by phone for Saturday lunch. Ordered 1 half lb, 2 6 oz cheeseburgers with 2 medium fries and 1 small hummus with pita. The price difference between a 6 oz and 1/2 lb burger is only a dollar. I'll remember that for next time. The burgers come with cheese, lettuce, onion, tomato, pickle, mustard, ketchup and mayo. Next time, I'll order the burgers with just cheese, pickle, lettuce and onion. My wife doesn't like mustard and tomatoes. I forgot these burgers come loaded with everything. Everything was hot and fresh! One of the owners even gave me an extra fry! I have been coming here since high school! I've been a customer for 30 plus years!

Friendly, helpful, casual, relaxing vibe. I've only had the Mediterranean side of the menu and I've…read morebeen stopping in for years. It is delish. Consistently good. From the Rock Salad to the hummus, grape leaves or baba ghannoush, whichever you're in the mood for, they come with pita (pillowy and warm). I've also had the falafel and gyros, it's all worth it. Also enjoyed the baklava and lady fingers with pistachios at various times for dessert. Easy street parking near the restaurant or in the deck on Mulberry/College Ave a block away. You can easily pick up & take out with the special walk up window inside or order and eat in with a view from the tall windows, comfortable seating and chill atmosphere. When the weather's nice, definitely choose the outdoor seating.

This might be the most underrated franchise in the country. Every thing I've gotten from there has…read morebeen delicious and above average in my opinion. The portions are fair. If you tend to eat a lot (like I do), I recommend the plates vs the bowls. I've been a customer at other locations for years, and was so glad to see they are in Champaign. I've also experienced their customer service via email/phone, and they have been very helpful, friendly, and professional. Oh, and their fries are among the best I have ever had!

The focus seems to be on take out and you self-serve to water, utensils, napkins. The Chicken Kothu Parotta came out quickly. I liked the curry sauce that came with it. The dish is a little spicy by itself. The Biryanis take a little longer and looked great. The Chicken in the Biryani was fried which surprised me a little. The Mutton Dum Biryani was spicier, so I had the yogurt sauce that came with it. 3 dishes for 3 people and we took about half of the leftovers home. The price is good value for students.

The fries were so hot, I almost burnt my fingers, sneaking one out of the bag on the way home. The baklava tasted like it was made this morning. It melted in my mouth. The gyros is something special.

The village salad had a slight change with the addition of banana peppers, but still very authentic. The gyro platter was delicious!

Side note, really enjoyed walking the town and all the shops in our short time here. Medici was a draw within footsteps of our hotel, a good kids menu (had to call to confirm as we didn't see it anywhere) and a tree inside. I was very impressed, and for a long time on this trip, this was one of the best meals I'd had. I got some local beer that was delicious, and then a fried chicken with mashed potatoes and green beans. The chicken thighs were flavorful and moist, and the green beans were very tasty too. Nice service as well. My kids enjoyed what they got, and my wife got a ravioli that she said was way better than expected. All in all, great spot and I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Let me preface this review with this restaurant catered my wedding so obviously I love it!!!…read more I went to Terre Haute for a funeral and had to stop by my favorite restaurant in the city. I have eaten here literally hundreds of times. The owner/chef is always so accommodating. I usually order something off the menu and he makes it happen. Here are some of my favorites: Shrimp scampi Seafood Risotto Scallops Scampi Vodka Pasta with Steak/Shrimp/Scallops On the menu favorites: French onion soup Tuna Sashimi Beef Wellington Lamb Chops Caesar Salad Tonight we had shrimp scampi and steak vodka pasta. My husband gets it extra spicy. Everything was excellent. As appetizers we ordered the Tuna Sashimi and French onion soup. Husband ended the night with bananas foster. Service is always good and drinks are never empty. We love Shawn and enjoy our conversations with him. This is a place to enjoy a nice dinner out without any rush and hustle and bustle. It's a leisurely time to enjoy your company and of course the food!! Do yourself a favor and stop it. You won't be disappointed.
