This is one of my go to places for something delicious and quick. Their chicken shawarma bowls are flavorful and filling. You get a very generous portion. I also love their cream soda and root beer fountain drinks! I usually do a blend of the two. Plus the nugget ice is always fun

Messed up my order, paid more for beef shwarma, got chicken kabob. Food was flavorless, soggy, and tasted as if it came from a box. This is a sad excuse for Mediterranean. Really disappointed.

We loved this restaurant! The food was fabulous! We ordered 2 plates of falafel with salad, pita bread and French fries, everything was fresh and savory! The falafels were the best, not burnt and easy to eat, could actually cut it with a fork, no knife needed, the fries were hot and savory, not salty, and the salad had a wonderful olive oil and vinaigrette dressing! Overall, the plates were large and plenty to eat, won’t go hungry here!

I must say that the food has always been great! Which is why in the past it was always extremely busy to the point of chaos resulting in not receiving your order due to someone else picking it up (I’ve seen this happen twice). So busy that if you only had an hour or less for your lunch break, you should plan on eating at your desk. However; during this social distancing time this is a restaurant that has turned out much better all around. The customer service was better than ever. The food arrived timely & was brought to our table (due to less customer maybe?). It was a nice, relaxing, stress free lunch. With less people there was speedy service with no confusion unlike my past experiences. Everyone’s mood was upbeat oppose to the stressful looks of the past visits from both staff & customers. Overall, I had to give them five stars because this restaurant is handling the limitations beautifully & honest within their customer service. I called ahead of time, the phone was actually answered. The staff member was polite and honest about the wait. It was such a refreshing change from different previous restaurants during the social distancing limitations that I’ve visited. I left feeling impressed. Message to the staff: Job Well Done. Kudos! BTW–There’s no photo of the lamb sandwich because I dove right in & ate it all while the sauce dripped over my salad. Only then, I decided I must rate & take photos. Trust me, it was delicious. My companion had the chicken kabob meal with rice, salad & drink. They commented that their food was delicious as well. We were very pleased. Again, thank you to your awesome staff with excellent customer service. I will visit more often. I look forward to this restaurant keeping this level of service when the social distancing is no longer needed .

I went there on a long-trip break. Got a chicken shawarma wrap. The food was pretty good, and the staff was also pretty nice. They gave exactly what we wanted unlike some other dining or drinking places. I honestly suggest going in there. If you eat only halal meals, that’s a pretty good restaurant to consider.

Right when I walked I noticed how spacious the restaurant was. It was very nice inside. The kitchen is all open so you could see them cooking and you could see the chicken and beef layered on the rotisserie which was pretty cool. I got a small chicken salad, which was still a good size, and it was delicious! It came with a vinegaret and a hot sauce and they were both amazing, especially the hot sauce. Definitely recommend eating here. They also have an outside seating area for good weather days.

Food is delicious!! All my friends and family enjoy the food. We occasionally get it a few times a month and it never gets old. Everything on the menu is great and the family pack offers so much food at a good price.
