    Great atmosphere, it's not an authentic middle eastern setting, but very clean and "new". Good food, and great attitudes. It's not the fastest service, but worth the extra few minutes.

    Chicken shawarma salad was very filling and loved their touch with the toasted chickpeas!

    This will be my go to for middle eastern food or probably dinner in general when I am visiting Greenville. Smaller place with 8-10 tables and bottled drinks other than tea. Food was great though!

    Polite staff & friendly service. Good portions at good prices. The food was fresh, delicious and pretty. My salad had a variety of textures. These are the best falafels I've had in a long time. Crunchy exterior with a soft and fluffy interior.

    A Must Try in Downtown Greenville Tahini absolutely blew me away last night! I had the Fattoush Salad, and I do not even normally like salad, but this one was so light, refreshing, and full of flavor that I would happily get it again. The Za'atar Fries were addictive, and both hummus dishes were standouts. The Falafel Over Hummus tasted like it was handmade with love, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The Beef Over Hummus was incredibly tender and full of flavor. And the hummus itself was so good I wanted to dip everything in it. For dessert, the Barazek was the perfect ending. It is a crunchy sesame cookie that is not too sweet, and the sesame and pistachio flavor combination was amazing. The customer service was great, and the decor felt very cultural and welcoming. It is absolutely worth the trip to downtown Greenville! I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

    Beef Shawarma and Falafel

    The food tasted very healthy. It filled me up very quickly and for a reasonable price. The people behind the counter were very nice. Inside the facility were murals of plants and the music played in the background was new house tracks. They have a pretty good stereo system which gave a nice ambiance when I was eating the food.

    Great food, fast as lightning food delivery and delicious. A must try if you're downtown. Nice group of people

    Falafel, hummus, chicken shawarma salad! Fresh pita! So so so good

    I celebrated a birthday lunch here and it was fantastic! The food was so fresh, service prompt and attentive - the owner thanked us for dining and asked for feedback. Liliana (I believe they is her name) was delightful! I anticipate this will be a big part of the downtown food scene for a long time! Very minimal menu which is perfect ! Reminds me of NYC restaurants - few selections that are done extremely well! Our feedback was better napkins! That's all! Check them out you won't be disappointed!

    Tabouli, reg chicken pita wrap, nicely grilled - crispy texture.

    Happy to find some cultural flavors here in Greenville. It's clear there is a lot of room for…read moreculinary growth here in the small city, and Aryana seems to have made some roots here. The environment is welcoming, and within walking distance of the downtown walking trails. Cozy seating and kind staff. The choice for lunch was made mostly for us, offering a cafeteria style meal. You either choose meat or vegetarian and the plate is brought out to you. We were surprised with chicken as the day's choice of meat. Ordered naan on the side, a simple vehicle food, used to dip in the spicy dipping sauce they serve and any of the foods on the plate. The dinner menu is more expansive.

I had in my head that this was a place where you could get a nice combo platter, but that's apparently only for lunch, so I had to pick one dish. I was quite happy with my selection though, with their interpretation of daal being a hearty, thick, if overly salty stew noticeably different in taste and texture than the Indian version I so often eat. It did not come with rice, but perhaps that was not so bad as ordering a naan turned out to be well worth it. A gigantic bread, it was delightfully charred on the outside and soft on the inside, and was just about right for mopping up a full plate of lentils. Adding a chai resulted in a cardamom-flavored beverage that wasn't particularly sweet. There were plenty of vegetarian selections that looked worthwhile based on what other tables ordered. I still wish I'd been able to sample more, but I was happy with what I got, and indeed I can't recall an Afghan restaurant I've been to with better-executed vegetarian dishes.

We originally fell in love with the Chicken Kabobs, but after trying the salmon, it quickly became our favorite dish. The salmon is perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. We live in Asheville, so dining at Pomegranate on Main is always a special treat. We especially love the cranberry basmati rice and always ask to substitute it for the basmati rice mixed with dill and lima beans. Our waiter, Christian W., happily made the change for us. Christian provided outstanding service throughout our meal--friendly, attentive, and eager to ensure everything was just right. We also love the Pomegranate Martini and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys martinis. During this visit, we were skipping alcohol, and Christian suggested the Pomegranate Mojito instead. It was refreshing, flavorful, and absolutely delicious--a perfect non-alcoholic option. What keeps us coming back is the consistency. The food is always excellent, the service is always top-notch, and the entire dining experience is one we look forward to every time. Pomegranate on Main is well worth the trip, and we highly recommend it!

    I've been a few times and as a Greek, enjoy this restaurant…read more The restaurant is clean, and the decor is authentic. I think the menu offers quite a bit and overall the food it tasty. The one thing I would offer as constructive criticism is really watch the amount of dry oregano you add after the fact. Most of what we received had more than a dusting, which isn't pleasant with dried herbs. (Note, I love oregano and cook with it all the time. This was just excessive). The other thing I would note is there isn't that spirit of hospitality when you are there, which is what the Greeks are known for. Service was I'd say a bit below average- for example, we ordered a bunch of appetizers, and were done with quite a bit of it. When our food came out the waitress tried to deliver all the food on an already crowded table. We had to ask her to remove the dirty, empty plates first. We also had people run out of water, and she never came back to refill. The other thing was it was clearly a celebratory dinner. It would have been nice to at least ask what was going on. Not looking for anything, but typically a server would at least chat you up. All that said, we will be back and recommend this place to others. Would just recommend tasting the food before it does out to make sure its not caked with dried oregano, and bring a little more of that Greek spirit to the business.

    Pretty good Greek food for Greenville. We are tough critics though because we loved Greece so much!…read moreIt's a very nice atmosphere with good Greek dishes and Greek wines
