“Service was excellent. Owner served us he was very friendly. The food was excellent. I had the Mezza appetizer which had Greek salad, dolmades, falafel, hummus, babaganoush and taziki sauce. My husband had some potato salad on his plate and I tried some it was so good. I was given spanikopita to sample. It was so flaky. I used the bathroom and it was clean and smelled nice.“

“Food was great. Definitely overpriced and staff lacked social/people skills.“

“Service and atmosphere were great. Quiet little pizza place. Clean all around. The garlic knots were meh. A little chewy. The fries were fantastic. Pizza cheese and sauce were great but crust left us wanting. We enjoy a firmer crisper crust and this was a little doughy and droopy for our preference. Otherwise everything was great! Price is decent as well.“

“This was our second time there in about ten days. The fine-in food is incredible. They have lots of less ethnic choices on their menu and I went with an American burger which was Very Good. My wife had the ganoush with lentil soup and thought it was very good. I had a standard gyro on my first visit, auch gut. They have only Turkish coffee in itty bitty cups, chalky and instant-like which I didn’t like much but it was my choice.

Parking: Parking is a delight, always. We parked right in front. The stripes were strait and parallel.“

“What a hidden gem! We were visiting another store in the strip mall and decided to give this, what looked like a hole in the wall, a try. OMG!!! We split a trio platter, and let me tell you, IT WAS the best! Between the staff, the food AND the ambiance, chefs kiss! Will definitely be returning!!!“

“Great food, consistent. Staple for Middle eastern food in Tampa“

“From entering to exiting, the staff was very friendly. Well seasoned and flavorful Mediterranean and seafood dishes. Busch Gardens tries to hide this place with their half-mile wall, but we made the trek anyway! In a sea of burgers and nuggets at the theme park, we wanted something better and this place hit the spot. Happy campers!“
