This used to be a hidden gem, but others have found out how awesome the food is here. I have never had a bad experience and we love this spot for lunch or dinner. I am not embarrassed to say that I can’t tell you about their burgers and was puzzled to hear some people ordering those today (maybe their burgers are top-notch like everything else?). This place has amazing gyros, falafel, and other really good vegetarian options as long as plenty of choices for the meat eaters. My wife gets lunch here with coworkers at least once a month and they keep going back for a reason. Don’t sleep on the baklava either. When you enter the store just keep heading towards the back and you’ll figure it out.

Food was excellent overall. Always love a good back of the grocery deli kind of place.

My husband and I tried the Deli! I was thrilled to find Ayran at the store (yogurt drink-blue/ green-yogurt drink with mint). I ordered a chicken kebab dinner, it came with deliciously spiced rice and sauce for the grilled chicken pieces. My husband said his shawarma was well-seasoned and delicious! We did not have time/room for baklava but we will return for sure.

My husband used to frequent Pammel Deli when he was a college student at ISU about 20 years ago. We were traveling through Ames and he decided he was craving a gyro. It was BY FAR the best gyro we have ever had! It was flavorful, juicy, a bit messy, and absolutely amazing! The owner was as friendly as my husband remembers from his college years. As my husband was eagerly waiting on the gyro to be made, I strolled the aisles and found some delicious goodies to purchase. They have such a great selection! We will be back, possibly as early as Saturday because we drive through Ames again on our way home to Kansas City 🙂 Thank you for being such a great store!!

First time visiting and as expected, the gyros were amazing. Great “cheat meal” treat! The owner came over and gave us a sample vegetarian samosa. Very kind of him to do that. Can’t wait to try some other items on their menu.

Is it the best halal food you’ll ever have? No. But in a town as out of the way as Ames, it’s great to have a place like it – a hard-working family run grill that can give everyone a try of what the food is like. Much respect.

Love the falafel – crispy and flavorful. The rice is so delicious, this is with the grilled paneer meal. Somosas are bomb, too!

Best gyros ever. Great ethnic grocery. A little disorganized and disappointed in their change of hours.
