I’m not gonna lie it tastes good! But!!! The prices are not reasonable, outrageous and tooo much!! Also, there was a piece of hair in the Hummus.

My go-to take out spot & I love that it stays open pretty late for Tucson. Once the cook made me a gluten-free Tabbouleh, (w/o bulgur) fresh right in the kitchen because he could tell how bad I wanted it! Delish, fresh not greasy, and also friendly service.

No pictures sorry, but overall impressed with the quality and taste of the food. I ordered the babaganoush and my husband a chicken schwarma sandwich. The babaganoush was excellent and not bitter. The pita was warm, thick, and tasty as well. Will definitely be coming back to try more.

Tasted phenomenal, but the portion was quite small compared to Opa's Grill up the street. I would rather take a walk up and get more value for my money.

Overall nice environment. Staff was very nice, food was a bit pricy for what it was. The food overall was good but nothing spectacular. It was worth trying.

The gentleman so pleasant and very nice. As soon as we got inside he greeted us and said he’d be right with us. Once we ordered he made some food suggestions and boy was it good! Food was super yummy! Fresh no greasy food here. The salad was fresh! Everything was on point! Visiting from out of state and I wish there was a place like this back home. I was really impressed with a one man show putting in at least 6-7 online orders plus ours. Each time he had each order ready and done before the pick up person was there. Amazing food and great service!

The man working there today (01/24) is extremely nice and really great at cooking. The food itself is perfect, the baklava is amazing, and the environment is peaceful

To be honest, I read the negative reviews and LOVED the owners responses, that’s the main reason why I decided to give this place a try! LOL No wait, Easy, Quick, Great customer service. Chill vibe, and the food was fresh and tasty, would definitely recommend!

An interesting and quirky little restaurant with friendly staff and some very tasty food. They seem to use take out plant-based trays of some sort to serve the food in or out and the food was. I had the steak shawarma plate with Greek salad, and humus. My wife had the chicken gyro and fries (homemade). My son had the meat pockets and loved them...very tasty! We will be back for more!

Editing this review but keeping the original review below.It is fantastic to have the option for this type of food in a very burger-oriented area.I actually would have rated the service 5 stars. I've never had an order late, and the orders have always been accurate. Everyone in the restaurant is hard working.I would rate the portion size 5+ stars. I would rate the pita 5 stars. The chicken shawarma and hummus I would give 4 stars. 5 stars for including the salad with the platters. I wish there were more options for adding stuff to the plates. Some things can be ordered as 'sides', but that would add up pretty quickly, and would leave me with a ton of pita bread. It would be nice to be able to add some tzatzaki, kalamata olives, feta, onions, tomatoes to a platter, without having to order sides of it all. Wish turkish salad was an option, and pickled onions, and red pepper hummus, and pita chips... For me, 0 stars for the Mediterranean fries. Some things just shouldn't be put together. The daughter likes the dolmades and falafel. Haven't tried the sandwiches or salads, but probably will in the future.Original review:I've gotten food from here several times. Always enjoyed it. The response to iKhalifaPro review by the business was unprofessional and uncalled for. Admit things didn't go quite right, apologize, and move on. Don't ridicule the customer.' And yeah, if you comment that I didn't leave an earlier positive review (as you did to another negative review), it's because you really need to be special to spark a five star review from me. I would have given you four stars, but for the rude, unprofessional responses to other negative reviews. Sometimes things don't go right - admit it, be professional, and move on.
