My husband and I came here right before they closed. He had a gyro with French fries that I didn’t get a photo of. It was good and was a fair price. I got a beef kafta with a Greek salad. I loved the Greek salad. It felt fresh. The meals were both good but average. I think it was worth the price paid and I would recommend this restaurant for a quick meal.

One of my favorite restaurants in Sarasota. Food is always fresh and authentic. Their Tzatziki Sauce is my favorite and they have a small offering of items available to purchase in their market which are great.

Definitely the best Middle Eastern food in SRQ! Authentic Lebanese, the Hummus is from other planet, Kibbe is crunchy from the outside and smooth from the inside. Tabboule and Babaghannouj are my favorites, even you can feel

Delicious food. The chicken and gyro meat were excellently flavored. We also enjoyed the potato salad and the hummus was great. The pita bread was dry and flavorless for me. I’ve never had a platter at this type of restaurant that doesn’t come with rice, so that was lacking for us. Overall a great meal

The best way to lose me as a customer is to provide me with poor customer service. No matter how the food taste, if the service is trash the food is trash! Don’t bother asking the person at the front about any food recommendations, when I asked him “what’s the most popular dish on the menu?” His response was “They are all popular”! Couldn’t be more cocky and arrogant.
