    Amazing Chicken Shawarma Plate!
    Yeounoh C.

    Amazing food, large portion fresh Mediterranean salad. Loved every bite! I am definitely coming back for more when I visit the town.

    #1. Lamb & Beef Gyros ($10.99)

    Casual takeout spot in SLU, order at the window - very quick and convenient. There are a few tables inside to sit in. It's warm inside though be forewarned for warm days! You can pick a protein and order it in sandwich, plate, or salad form. Tried the #1 Lamb and Beef Gyro Sandwich ($10.99) - it was simple, tasty, and amazing. The pita bread was super soft and the tzatziki was also excellent. Good amount of protein. The iceberg lettuce and tomatoes were perfect for crunch.

    2. Chicken Gyros
    Audrey L.

    A quick, convenient gyro spot! The food is good and prices are fair. There's not a lot of seating, so this is more of a grab and go place. I got the chicken gyros and split the Greek fries. The chicken gyros were tasty and came with a lot of chicken! I had enough leftovers to last the next day. The chicken was a little on the drier side, but overall felt like this was a good meal for the price. I really enjoyed the Greek fries; the fries were perfectly crisp and I loved all the toppings. Would recommend this!

    Full lamb/beef gyro, partial Greek salad, partial order of fries

    One million/10, will order again soon. The gyro meat was sliced from a cone (as it should be!) and the servings were plentiful. French fries PERFECT. Tzatziki sauce OUTSTANDING. Gyro AMAZING. Thank you!

    Lamb &Beef Gyro Plate with Stuffed Grape Leaves (served cold)

    Great lamb and beef gyro plate! Absolutely delicious! The rice was surprisingly fluffy and made the dish that much better. Excellent service as well - I was about to order a side salad, but the man behind the counter informed me that the plate came with a salad. Some other places would've just taken the order and stuck me with extra salad, but he was more concerned about serving his customers well. It's the reason I'm writing this review. I'll be back often and plan to become a regular.

    I just moved to Seattle, and this is one of the first places I have eaten at. It. Is. Good. I used to live in Chicago 5 years ago, where there were tons of restaurants that served delicious gyros. I haven't had good gyro meat since... up until now. I ordered the gyro plate. It's a bit pricier than I'm used to, but I guess this is near the center of Seattle so ok FINE, I shall ignore that. It comes with a simple fresh salad of tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, lettuce, a sprinkling of feta cheese, and a couple delicious kalamata olives, just be careful they still have pits inside. It also comes with perfectly seasoned yellow rice, which complements the wonderful slices of gyro meat that is piled up on top of it. Finally there is tzatziki sauce in a cup... I will say I much prefer the cucumber sauce they use in Chicago, but this one, which is more like a dill sauce, is good in its own way. I also tried the tahini sauce which was great (it's kind of like a thin hummus), and the spicy sauce. Everything went well together. OH it also came with a soft warm pita which I used to make my own gyro sandwich with, using the ingredients in the plate! By the way, the plate was big enough to feed me twice. If I wanted to eat lighter, maybe twice and a snack. I don't usually eat that lightly, though.

    Cute little gyro place! My beef & lamp gyro plate was amaaazing - the meat was super tender & flavorful, and a good simple salad with rice. We LOVED the Greek fries, they were absolutely amazing!!!! However our side of falafel was super dry and crumbly... seemed like it was old or maybe just an off-day. They have pretty good tzatziki sauce though!! Portions were decently sized. I'd definitely go back again for those Greek fries and the gyro plate.

    My review is just for the Turkish delights :) I have visited twice this summer and have yet to try…read moretheir other food items. I moved to Washington a few months ago and it has been incredibly difficult to locate a restaurant that sells Turkish delights so of course when I discovered this place, I had to plan a visit for my sweet treat craving. I don't often stop by Pike's Place because it's so crowded here, but i will say the Turkish delights have been worth the trip. They're simple and small bite sized pieces but they are satisfactory enough for me since I can't find any other options around. They offer a variety of flavors including (but not limited to) rose, peach, passionfruit, and mango. My personal favorite is probably the mango. They offer two different amounts of Turkish delight, costing up to about $16 excluding tax but can last me for a few days if I don't immediately inhale them all. I'm interested in their soup and baklava, though I'm not sure if I will give them a try since turkish delight is only on my mind when I visit lol My only negative criticism is that it tends to get busy here, which equates to a decline with an ideal customer service experience. There's either already plenty of people when I arrive or people start filling up the place after my arrival. I don't mind waiting in line BUT the lines here are very disorganized and there's no clear indication of where to order and where to purchase so I've been very p!ssed off for my last visit when I lined up to the main line (on the right) for my sweets, just for everyone else after me to get helped first because they cut in front to the other side of the counter (on the left). It's unspoken apparently but the main line is for the food/meat items.. I'm not exactly a fan of this level of disrespectful service that caters to entitled customers. It's a shame because I do want to return, when I'm in the area, for my turkish delights.. I really hope they improve..

We shared a bunch of appetizers: bolani, burta, and the mushroom qorma. Burta was my fav but every single dish was so flavorful. For my mains, I got the murgh kebab.. the chicken was so tender and well-marinated but the flavored rice stole the show for me. Also the place feels super authentic, cozy, warm, not trying too hard, just real. And the owner was hilarious, so witty, and made the whole experience feel extra special. You can tell he cares and it shows. Now the saddest part: I just found out this restaurant has been around for decades and is closing forever soon. Truly heartbreaking! I really wish I'd discovered it sooner. If you've been meaning to go, don't wait. This spot is a gem and def deserves a visit before it's gone. FYI, it closes on Jan 3rd 2026!

This was my first time trying Afghan food so I was excited to see what the cuisine offers. We got the combination kebab for 2 (2 red meats - lamb and beef, $100) which is basically a full set course menu and a fish qorma as another entree as there was 3 of us. The combination kebab is definitely more than enough food for 2, as the 3 of us shared that plus one entree and we were all stuffed. Ash - traditional noodle soup with kidney beans and chickpeas. I like the salty and slightly tangy aspect of the soup and it definitely whet my appetite for what is to come. Badenjan Borani - eggplant. I don't like eggplant but found the taste of this to be delicious. It is a bit on the mushier side for my liking though Fish qorma - fish was cooked nicely in a tomato based sauce Seekh kebab - beef. I didn't really like this one as much since the meat was tough but the flavor was great. Bara kebab - lamb. I love this one as it was juicier and more flavorful Kabuli palaw - the rice dish that comes with the kebab. I love this - it's like jeweled rice from Iranian and Persian cuisine, which offers carbs and a bit of sweetness to it. Pairs excellently with the dishes Firni - cardamom, pistachio, rosewater pudding. Classic Afghan dessert. Quite sweet but refreshing at the same time. Love it Dogh - an interesting salty drink made with yogurt, fresh mint, and salt. It felt like I was drinking sauce but more palatable. Service is good as dishes were taken out in good cadence and food came out at a decent pace.

    Tanoor is one of the more pleasant surprises in my time in Seattle. I've always thought about the…read moreWestlake / SLU area as a food dessert. Filled with corporate slop bowls to fuel up tech bros, you won't find a decent meal anywhere on this side of the lake. But Tanoor is kind of like that special someone who has been there your whole life but you've always looked past for greener pastures. This restaurant was staring me right in the eyes for years, and I didn't realize how magnificent it was until today. When you walk in you are greeted by warm, fresh and fluffy pita. Guess what, IT COMES WITH THE MEAL! Everyone knows I'm a sucker for some free bread. But don't let these Lebanese pillows fill you up, the dip marathon has just begun. The menu here is unlike anything I've ever seen. You can get lost trying to figure out what to order for lunch, so I would advise consulting the waitstaff for guidance through this delightful maze. I just looked on their menu to figure out what the fries that I ate were called, and I can't find them for the life of me. But they had their own incredible dip completely covering them. At one point we had 4 different dips on the table, and I'm not sure how they got there. 1) The dip on the fries 2) Spicy hummus (not that spicy, incredibly tasty) 3) Za'tar that comes with the pita 4) Yogurt sauce that came with the Kabob combo Everything comes with something else here. And since I was having an electric conversation with my good friend, I sort of lost track of everything that we ordered. But if you love dipping things in other things as much as I do, you will love Tanoor!

    The food here is pretty good. The fresh bread that is served at the table is the highlight. This…read morerestaurant has a modern vibe and is a nice dine in option in the area. I highly recommend the combo for two to three people as you get a variety of different appetizers and all of the main kabobs. However, a couple of things that really made this experience mediocre. First, the meat was overcooked even though I asked for medium rare. Most of the meat came out medium well. The rice was undercooked and hard when you bit into it. The server could have been more attentive.. didn't come back to check on us, even though the restaurant wasn't super busy. The biggest disappointment is that this establishment passes on a 5% fee to help pay for their staff's benefits. They stay it's optional and they can take it off but it's very distasteful. The owner should reconsider this and build this expense into the pricing of their menu. Otherwise their wait staff is going to feel slighted when customers leave less tip because of this additional fee. Overall, this is a solid place, but the experience was just average considering all aspects, and therefore the three star rating.
