    The protein bowl and coke zero
    Jeff B.

    Fast, convenient, tasty and overall healthy. I stopped by here today and I ordered the Protein Bowl, which is basically a salad with sauces and a grilled chicken skewer on top, minus the skewer. Everything was fresh and delicious. You order at the counter either on the Kiosk or with a cashier. You will be presented a fob to be alerted when your food is done. The food was ready in about 5 minutes. The place is quite large and offers both indoor and outdoor seating. The

    Came here on a Saturday to try them out. We were happy to learn that they have a BOGO deal for kids meals on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Buy an adult meal and get a free kids combo. Adult bowls cost about $16-17, so definitely not cheap. We ordered two bowls, one with lamb gyro and I went for the steak sirloin. Most of the toppings were free, and some premium toppings cost $1. With the two adult entrees, we were given two kids combo meals for free! Our food was ready less than 10 minutes later. We turned in our pager at the pickup counter, and carried our tray of food to our table. Presentation-wise, we thought they did a good job. Portion sizes seemed good as well. Each adult entree came with a protein, a choice of saffron or truffle brown rice, toppings, and a salad on top. The food was tasty and enjoyable, though we thought the meats and rice were dry and overcooked. They have drinks and sauce stations over to the side. We enjoyed their cilantro jalapeño sauce, which had a good, non-dairy, creamy texture that went well with our proteins. They had to-go lids available to pack our leftovers. We threw away our trash at the receptacle next to the door. Overall, we had a good experience here, but we probably wouldn't come here often. The price for a single adult entree would be cost-prohibiting if it weren't for the free kids combos.

    I needed healthy protein, no thinking and intense flavor since I was coming off not eating for a few days of a respiratory illness. This hit the spot! I still think most kebab shops in the U.S. charge way too much for what they offer, but I will grant this is the best tasting kebab bowl I've had in a long time and it was under $20.

    Friday lunches are for meeting with friends and family as well as trying new foods. Today was destination TDK Mediterranean. Our order included chicken kebab and hummus with pita bread. Enough for two people with leftovers. The food was fresh, hot and flavorful. The cashier was helpful when I asked about extra virgin olive oil. Although they did not have olive oil, I appreciated her asking the kitchen staff. The restaurant is extremely busy during lunch, so get here early. I really liked that there was ample space between tables to allow for appropriate social distancing. Heads up the restaurant is a bit pricey. I do believe they have above average quality. Really liked that TKS donates $100K per year to local schools....

    Think "chipotle" but it's Mediterranean food. Efficient concept and decent food. Service was quick and pleasant. Crave fries are a must!

    San Diego and steak wrap
    Artem V.

    Great place! We ordered the San Diego and the steak wrap, and both were absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and well prepared. The meat was juicy, the sauces were perfectly balanced, and the portions were very satisfying. The staff was also very friendly, ambiance awesome ,welcoming, and provided fast service. Overall, a great experience -- we will definitely be coming back!

    Carved chicken plate
    Madi M.

    Five people in line, two employees bouncing between register and kitchen, not even one child high chair available. I can only imagine wait time. And no can't sit down with toddler without a high chairs. Had to leave frustrated and disappointed. Not with the staff, but management. Management should be doing better. We went next door.

    Carved Rotisserie Chicken Plate with Greek Salad and Veggies
    Sophia B.

    We stopped in for the first time for lunch. We both ordered the Rotisserie Chicken plate. Includes two sides. I opted for veggies and Greek salad. Hubby ordered veggies and brown rice. They give you large portions and the food is very filling. I really liked all the sauces. Service was fast and the food came out quickly. This place was busy, but had plenty of seating. We will definitely be back to try more menu items.

    bowl and shawarma
    Amanda L.

    Very yummy and pretty affordable! The shawarma is good and the meats here are very tasty. Their fries taste like mcdonald's but fresh and not as salty so that's a win in my book. You don't need all the fancy add on to make it taste good. The spicy sauce is also pretty good. I would come back!

I was glad we were seated outside though because even though it was a warm evening, their fans were very effective creating a constant gentle breeze. The music enhanced the experience with a fun and upbeat vibe. I truly felt like was sitting at club/bar/restaurant during a cool summer night in Greece! Just incredible. The staff were also great! Friendly and accommodating from the time we checked in for our reservation. Our server was super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful with my gluten sensitivity! The food was delicious too. Shout out to the chefs! The village salad (also reminded me of a traditional Greek village salad) was refreshing, the hot honey halloumi was like nothing I have ever tasted before, I regret not ordering extra to-go!, the Lamb chops made me feel like we were celebrating Easter - the seasoning was spot on and cooked to perfection, the Lamb and beef kefta with rice was also tasty, but the lamb chops are the clear winner. Don't forget to get dessert! If you have a gluten sensitivity like me, you are safe with the Pistachio Panna Cotta. It was a flavor high I didn't want to end! Lol. But seriously, it was super delicious, sweet, and just the right portion. Also FYI: we shared every plate. It's the way to go there, and I'm glad our server recommended that we order everything up front and they simply bring it out as each plate is ready. (Except for dessert and drinks - order those at the appropriate times of course). Speaking of our server, Lauren S, she was on it!!! Not only was she able to serve us and other tables extremely well, there was also a very large party of around 15 people next to us that she also served. Yet she always seemed to be around when you needed her and always with a friendly smile and positive attitude. Shout out to Lauren!!! You were amazing. Thank you for making our anniversary dinner memorable. Can't wait to visit Aba again!

The indoor space flows nicely with the outdoors and feels trendy and polished without being overly formal. Parking is the typical South Congress challenge. There's access to the Music Lane underground garage (with a small validation discount from the restaurant) plus nearby paid lots and street options, but it can feel competitive and a bit chaotic, especially on busier evenings. Plan ahead or use rideshare if you can. Service was great--attentive and smooth throughout our meal with two adults and two kids. We ordered the whipped feta spread (excellent with the pistachios and oil; the house bread was a bit salty), Brussels sprouts (cooked perfectly), grilled chicken kebabs, the shawarma-spiced steak frites, and the grilled Branzino. The Branzino was the clear star of the show--flavorful and well-executed. The chicken and steak were mediocre at best. For dessert we shared the sticky date cake, which had a nice crunch outside and was warm and moist inside. It's a bit pricey (we paid over $240 for the four of us), but the setting, strong service, and that excellent Branzino make it worthwhile. I'd definitely come back.

The kebabs are the true highlight...juicy, flavorful, and grilled to perfection. The portions are quite large as the hubs and I shared a wrap. We were sufficiently full after eating the chicken tikka wrap. Interestingly, the wrap came in a Shawarma King packaging with their contact phone number. So, I assume that Usta staff are sub-contracting from Shawarma King. Usta also has freshly baked bread and classic sides like hummus and rice paired with the main dishes. The restaurant has a homey, lived in feel. It has a few middle eastern artifacts sprinkled throughout the restaurant. The menu offers a wide variety of options, from Iraqi and Adana kebabs to shawarma and traditional Middle Eastern plates, so there are food items for both first timers and regulars who want to explore beyond the basics. They also serve flatbreads where you can have two different toppings. The food focus is on bold, traditional flavors rather than modern takes on middle eastern foods. On the desserts front, they have an assortment of desserts and several sections of ice cream. I had the baklava, which was surprisingly delicious...it was not eye-squinting sweet like a standard baklava. It was crunchy, flavorful, and had nuts that were substantial. Layla, my server, was so super sweet and welcoming. She pointed out that Usta provides its customers free tea. How cool is that? I cannot remember last time I received a free drink.

We got the lamb/beef kebab 1lb and first off the picture online is misleading. It shows for the catering of kebabs, not 1lb. Which is probably on me for not catching that, but that's fine. The kebab itself was just alright. Could have had more seasoning and there chunks of either fat or onions that were not pleasant to chew. The pita was the size of a mini pizza which is nice, but they were so chewy it was disappointing. The sauce was more watery than I would have liked and also not as flavorful. Overall, this was a miss for me.

    ABSOLUTE BANGER OF TX BBQ! Here's why:…read more Arrived at 11:05AM to beat any possibility of a crowd; still wasn't the first customer, but definitely in the TOP 5. For my order, I got an order of the Za'atar & Pomegranate Glazed Pork Ribs ($17), 1 Lamb Chop ($9.50), and an Egyptian Mac n' Cheese (made COWBOY - added smoked brisket) ($15). Total came to $41.50. First of all, the space is spacious! There are two areas for eating outside --- and although I never went "inside", I did see a building with people going in-and-out of, I assume that's part of the establishment as well? A good amount of fans to keep you comfortable during your stay which is a nice touch. Let's go to the food: I had to give the mac n' cheese the first try --- I've been disappointed too many times before. LOVED IT! First of all, KG BBQ use shells for their mac, and it's not just "queso" --- its seasoned, has some tomato in it, and when it's made "Egyptian" --- you add that beautiful amount of brisket and sauce which just enhance the whole dish. The ribs were also phenomenal. They were fall off the bone tender, but not fragile in any way. The marinade was amazing, and topped with pieces of pomegranate and served with some spiced onions, it's the COMPLEXITY. Often times with TEXAS BBQ, it gets heavy quick. Having these contrasting yet complimentary flavors just makes you want to eat more! It's a complete sensory experience, visually, smell, and taste. The famous lamb chop was also amazing, and served with a little herb concoction on the side that is again --- needed --- to cut through the richness of the meat and fattiness. I've heard some complaints from food bloggers which is valid: there is a good amount of fat on each of these chops, so you better SAVOR the meat on that chop! It'll be done in a few bites! Only feedback? Food temp. It wasn't cold, but it wasn't hot either. In any case, I was thoroughly pleased by KG BBQ and you should definitely pay a visit!

They wrapped each taco individually in aluminum foil to keep it warm which was a nice touch, though they didn't bring out the red and green sauces until we asked for them. Brisket Taco ($9): The brisket was a bit dry but the slice was pretty thick and it paired well with the acidity of the pickles. Carne G Taco ($6): Super cheesy and heavy. The flavors weren't bad but I felt pretty gross after eating one and it left me really bloated.
