“Saturday night takeout sharing the Meat lovers platter with a side of stuffed grape leaves. The kabobs were beautifully done, and not overdone. We’ve been to Turkey before and this place is legit- right down to the silky hummus and quiet pickled veggies scattered throughout the yellow rice.“

“Wow. What a great restaurant. I thought it was a coffee shop at first then I walked in! Omg the smells are amazing . I sampled a few things, bought the pita Christs with cinnamon and fresh honey! Wow. Then I had the healthiest and yummiest drink ever. Prices are reasonable and food incredibly good! Prompt too!“

“The meat and falafel here are seriously delicious. I had the Kafta and lamb kebabs and both were outstanding. Super friendly, genuine service and everything tastes authentic. The Lebanese Sambousik rolls are amazing too. Definitely coming back.“

“Can’t wait to go back. Stopped in for lunch.

I got the fattoush salad (their rotisserie chicken I added is fire), my boyfriend got one of the wraps (well balanced, generous in size and phenomenal zaatar fries) and a tahini snickerdoodle.

Simple, tasty and fresh across the board. They don’t skimp on quality. Excited to go back and try anything else, and another cookie flavor ;)“

“Hdden Gem Alert: Incredible Shawarma Inside a Convenience Store!

I have to admit—I was skeptical at first. A shawarma restaurant inside a convenience store, with mixed reviews? I wasn’t sure what to expect. But after trying their Chicken Shawarma Plate and Beef kabob Plate, I can confidently say this place blew my mind!

The beef was incredibly juicy, moist, and generously portioned. Both came with yellow rice, crispy fries, and fresh tomato and lettuce chops, making for a hearty meal.Each was around $12.99 . In Colorado, Mediterranean food can be pricey with small portions, but this spot gives you tons of food for the price—definitely a great value! Note: If you need pita bread and hummus, you must order it as a side. Not included with the plate.

I couldn't find any tables or chairs inside(not sure). I ordered online beforehand, which made the experience smooth.Did pickup. The store itself isn’t the fanciest, but don’t let its appearance fool you. If you want to try Mediterranean food without breaking your bank, in this economy, check out this spot.

Would I come again? Yes.
Would I recommend it? Yes“

“The food was incredibly fresh, the pita, the falafel, the feta. I got a side of garlic sauce and that stuff is addicting! I don’t live nearby but I will be driving out of my way to come back. I hope the people who do live nearby know what a gem they have.“

“Not a big fan on hummus but I had to try this place out... it was worth every penny! nice clean and the service was awesome“

“This spot is hands down the best value in the area - and their pitas are on another level. The veggies are always fresh, the meat is perfectly seasoned, and those pitas... easily the best this side of the Atlantic.

Family-owned and terrific service“

“The food was delicious, the portions were generous. Felt like a neighborhood. highly recommend.“

“Everything we ordered was delicious!“
