    1. Chicken Shawarma. Very good.
    Ben T.

    The food here was really good. Authentic. My wife and I like Greek food. Coming from another state, we had no expectations other than what other Yelp reviews suggested. Totally one of the most flavorful Mediterranean options we've had. Service was friendly, fast, and helpful. It's a small restaurant but very clean. They keep busy as we noticed several carry out people doing pickup orders. 5-stars!!!!!

    8. Kofta Kebabs with hummus

    The food is exceptional the literal best Mediterranean food in Kentucky the Kofta kebabs are the best so is the labneh is great the owner ran out and crossed the Taco Bell parking lot and into oncoming traffic to return a phone to another tab and the restaurant is small but has a great atmosphere and super friendly staff

    12/27/25 I've come here a few times and each time has been a great experience. Customer service is top tier, the staff is very friendly and accommodating. I came here with my husband after a vet visit (all 4 paws- around the corner) we ordered the mixed grill so we could share our platter. Everything was made to order and came out pretty quickly. The ambiance is very causal and inviting. The food was absolutely fantastic, cooked to perfection, flavorful, and fulfilling. Anytime I'm in Georgetown around lunch/dinner time, I will be coming here every time, they're that good! Order various items, everything has always been so good, each and every time I've eaten here.

    I've only eaten here twice but I wish I could go everyday, I got different things both times and they were both delicious, I love trying new food from different cultures and the people working are so nice. 10/10 recommend

    Review for Yaffa Grill - Mediterranean Cuisine Rating: 5/5 - Amazing! We stopped by Yaffa Grill late at night and were thrilled to find it still open and welcoming. We ordered items 15 and 16 from the menu--the vegetarian kebab and the vegetarian platter--and every single bite was absolutely delicious. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly spiced, the dishes were clearly made with care. To top it off, I had hot tea with fresh mint, which was the perfect way to wind down the evening. The woman working was incredibly kind and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere was clean and relaxed, and everything about the experience left us feeling nourished and very grateful. Highly recommend for anyone craving Mediterranean comfort food with heart. We are only passing through on a trip but if we are nearby again we will definitely be back!

    With Sahara closed for the Summer, I thought I'd try Yaffa Grill while in Georgetown. I ordered the Tawook Chicken Wrap. A good sized wrap stuffed with chicken, salad, pickles and garlic sauce. I added an order of Dolmades, six delicious rice stuffed grape leaves, with one difference to most, a drizzle of pomegranate. Nice. Check it out if you're nearby. 58

    This place slaps. Super quick and friendly. They spiced everything beautifully. If we lived closer, we'd be regulars.

    I WAS SO EXCITED to have Greek, Italian food here in GEORGETOWN!…read more But I'm sad to report it's nothing like any of the Mediterranean restaurants in Lexington. And it's definitely not like this in Italy or Greece! It was so NASTY I couldn't finish my food. Plus it was 18$ without a drink! The owner made my shawarma platter. She had a hard time figuring out what that was!?! I was confused on that because it's usually a staple at any Mediterranean restaurant. The chicken was maybe a table spoon full and tons of fat. The little bit of chicken was all held together with stringy fat. I've never seen chicken like this. And not to mention the VERY SMALL portions! The rice is Mexican rice. Definitely not the original rice you get. Changes the flavor. Not good!!!!! If you like Sahara, Nefertiti and Mr. kabob please don't come here!! The drive to Lexington to a local REAL Mediterranean restaurant IS WORTH IT!! You'll get 2 meals for the price of your one there and mouth watering flavored food!!!

    Read about this new place in Geoegetown, so decided to try it while nearby. Not so much bistro as…read moreit is deli. Ordered the Spinch Feta Pie. Comes with a small Greek salad. It was a big pie, and I would have been happy with one half the size. It was just OK. The inside was fluffy, but the outer ring was tough. Plastic utensils weren't working, so had to break it apart. The salad was eh. Overall disappointing. The cakes in the showcase looked tasty, so I got a slice of Pistachio Cake to go. Turns out the cake was the highlight. 99

Let me tell you, it's a recurrent (every 2 weeks) appointment, and I'm about to make my 3rd trip to Sahara this week. Wonderful price for the amount of food you get. The first time I went I was only able to eat about half of my portion. So much chicken! I got the chicken shawarma, and my hubby got the chicken leg lunch special. Wonderful seasoning, well cooked, great hummus, great Greek salad... the pita bread was meh, but I'll forgive it because everything else was great. The inside isn't a 5 star restaurant, but it's serviceable! Good amount of seating. The staff are friendly, open to questions, and very nice overall. They like to keep the line moving, so don't dilly dally. Ha! Overall, I can see why this was one of my friends favorite restaurants, and it's definitely added into my Lexington rotation.

There is seating to sit but just keep in mind lunch rush is real and you may have to share a table with someone. Currently they close for the summer which I did not know.
