First time here and it was wonderful!
I got the lamb shish kebob with basmati rice,hummus and bread.
The chef cooked the lamb exactly how I wanted it, medium rare! So tasty.
She also makes the rice that is perfectly done by my expectations, fluffy and not overly cooked with a slight flavor.
The hummus was a treat with the bread.
My wife got the Beef Shawarma on a wrap and she loved it.
We got tabouli with lamb, and know it will be tasty.
Prices are excellent( especially for my lamb dish), parking is plenty and the happy service was really nice to experience.
Being an Armenian, I was so happy to find my go to spot within a few miles.
Will be back ladies!

Mary is a ball of sunshine! She makes home made peppermint patties and they are delish. Her secret spicy sauce is unique, spicy and full of flavor. The chef makes the BEST vegetarian roasted veggies salad in Saint Petersburg!

Highly recommended! We placed a catering order with only 24 hour notice, and the owner took it upon himself to meet all our needs! He was responsive and responsible, and dependable. The food was delicious and tasted of high quality. Packed well. Also his staff were very nice and you can tell were treated well by the owner.
Thank you! 10 stars!

Fresh, delicious, local place. The owners are very kind and Falafel and hummus are super flavorful. I highly recommend checking them out! Especially in the summer without Rays games to provide a steady stream of customers.
Cute coffee shop that is also great to host local events.

Service was great—fast and friendly. But let’s talk about the food. If you’re going to advertise yourself as a Mediterranean spot, at least honor the basics. Calling a tortilla wrap with lettuce and tomato a “chicken shawarma sandwich” is like serving toast with ketchup and calling it pizza. It’s misleading, lazy, and at $15, borderline insulting. Cutting corners on core dishes defeats the entire concept. Do better.

Avoid! Great family story, terrible execution. Despite claims of authentic Jerusalem street food, everything was bland.
BLAND CHICKEN SHAWARMA!
Tried beef, chicken, lamb and falafel - all completely unseasoned. The chicken shawarma had no marinade whatsoever. Paid premium prices for plain meat in a wrap with pickles. Not the authentic experience they promise.
+ a 40min wait for takeout!
Check Sarah's kebab house instead they k ow what they are doing.

Ordered 4 chicken bowls, a few chunks of boiled chicken and tomatoes over rice. Barely any sauce provided, no silverware or napkins yet you are forced to pay tip because ther is not a no tip option. The minimum tip option was 18%. Do not recommend if you are looking for authentic Mediterranean food.
