Authentic. Fresh. Hot. Delicious. Our first time visiting and it won’t be our last. If you have a mixed family (some vegan and some meat-eating) this is the place to go. They had a lot of vegan selections (clearly marked with a “V” on the menu). The portions were generous and the food tasted amazing. Best hummus I’ve ever had and the baba ganoush was perfect. We each got a sandwich, plus the vegetarian sampler. We wanted to try a little of everything. We took plenty home lunch the next day. The staff was super friendly and very helpful in us making our selections. The interior is a little small if you have a large party, but you could always get your food “to go”. It feels like a small-town diner where they are going to remember you the next time you visit. We will definitely be back again.

The smells and tastes are authentic and delicious. The servings are huge, so bring someone to share the yum with. The owner is generous and a beautiful human!

Super flavorful! Fresh bread was just wow! the baba ganoush was out of this world… mixed grill platter was really good… all in a very nice little place with no fuss! Very generous portions… Staff was simply awesome! You have to come here if you are near Owens center! I know I will be coming here often before a Mustang game!

Traveling from CA, had the craving for Peruvian and found this hidden gem. For anyone wanting a tasty Mediterranean meal here’s the place. Restaurant was very clean, folks were extremely nice and the food was delicious. 16+ bucks for the chicken kabob plate with 2 sides which was what I’d expect to pay back home so feeling good about that and it was plenty of food! Try em out!!

If you never experienced Chef Moussa, you’ve never tasted a true Gyro. Fantastic flavor, always fresh, and always worth you time. We got to try the hummus for the 1st time and it was phenomenal. We drive an hour and a half to experience the food here. Worth the drive every time!

This is probably one of the best restaurants in Peoria. I think the Lebanese I had was fine, but nothing to write home about. I ordered the mixed grill and nothing really blew me away. Their hummus is amazing though. If I went back I’d just get a hummus with meat platter.
