“Thank you to FuelAl for giving me the opportunity to dine at this amazing restaurant!

I went with a group of people, and at first, some were hesitant and unsure about the food. But by the time we were ready to leave, everyone was smiling and talking about how much they enjoyed the experience.

Food: Outstanding
Atmosphere: Outstanding

I also had the chance to meet the owners, and they were incredibly welcoming and passionate about what they do.

Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food, great people, and a memorable dining experience!“

“I had a really good experience at Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe. The food was delicious—especially the pitas and gyros. We tried both the beef and the lamb, and both were very flavorful and well-cooked.
One small recommendation: if you’re planning to order an extra side, you might want to skip the potatos. They already include a small portion of chips/snack with the meal, so ordering potates is a bit redundant.
The place itself is quite spacious—larger than you might expect—and very clean. The location is also convenient, and they have outdoor seating, which is great if you want to enjoy your meal outside, especially during the summer.
In terms of price, it’s a bit on the higher side. We spent around $35 for two people, which for students can feel slightly expensive—but the quality of the food makes it worth trying at least once.
Overall, a great spot to explore Mediterranean food in Tuscaloosa!“

“I went to Hoolies Grill tonight, August 26th, around 8 PM and I just have to say please support this business! I’m a faithful customer, and going to Hoolies is honestly a treat for me because the food is THAT delicious. The amazing customer service from the cashier and cooks is another big reason I keep coming back.

As soon as I walked in, the cashier and the two cooks were instantly so welcoming and kind. The customer service was honestly phenomenal.

I ordered the hummus dip, cheese sticks, bacon cheeseburger, okra, and the Swiss mushroom chicken sandwich. Everything was fresh and delicious. I also made some changes to my sandwich, and they got every single thing correct.

The restaurant was also clean and spacious, and they had everything you could need, from all the condiments to napkins and everything in between. It was just an overall really nice experience.

What really stuck out to me was how kind and welcoming the cashier and two cooks were. You don’t always get that kind of genuine customer service, and it really makes a difference.

Please support this business! The food is delicious, going there is always a treat for me, and the amazing cashier and cooks are a huge part of what keeps me coming back. I’ll definitely be back again! ❤“

“Great lunch date location!“

“We visit at least once or twice a month usually on a Wednesday the food and drinks are always delicious 😋 And never had a problem with the service and we’ve been visiting since they were on the corner downtown, but this past Wednesday November 18, 2020 our server was horrible she had the nastiest attitude and demeanor. First thought was because we African American but we soon realized that wasn’t it she treated two other tables with the same curtness and attitude. Hopefully next visit will be better“

“I had NEVER eaten there because of the name, it sounded like it would be good I aint ever heard of before 😂 but anyway I came across a post about a dessert they have and it looked so good I had to go by there and get a piece WELLLLL it smelled so good that I walked my big ole behind back around the building and got my husband out (he's in a wheelchair) and also it's food that I actually knew what it was (Burger's, Gyro's, fries etc) and man oh man oh man it was 1 of the BEST choices I have ever made with picking a restaurant to eat at!!!!!!
