“KJ IS THE BEST! I feel as if he would save my family from a burning building, save a drowning puppy in the middle of the ocean, stop a car from hitting an elderly couple. His overwhelming customer service made me smile for the first time in over 50 years. A true great young man cava has on their team!
Give him a raise“

“I was scrolling Grubhub then decided I deserved better than fast food that’s going to be delivered cold. So went to Google and saw this place which I pass almost everyday without thought. I wish I caught my waiters name but he was a pleasure and very attentive. The fried octopus was unique and flavorful. Short rib wasn’t as tender as advertised but still quite delicious. I got a sample of the lobster bisque which honestly tasted like tomato soup to me. The bread pudding was excellent. I appreciate the balance and gelato on top. I got the mezcal cocktail which was also great. Also ordered tequila on the rocks. I was given a complimentary shot of the pistachio martini which was delicious. Overall ambience was lovely. You can have a great date night right in the burbs. Who knew? Overall, can’t wait to visit again to try different apps and their pasta. All of that was around $140 including 20% tip.“

“homestyle burgers, very clean and delicious food. mom and pop shop. I’d rather give them my business than a big chain any day!“

“Petra Falafel is my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant in the area. Their chicken shawarma platter is a masterpiece, and the garlic, jalapeno, and habanero sauces are very tasty, be sure to order extras! Their portions are generous, often leaving me with leftovers for at least another full meal. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. We always order for pick up, but they do have a dining area and I believe they are also BYOB. Next time you are craving falafel, baba ghanoush or shawarma give Petra Falafel a try - you will not be disappointed!“

“My first time eating lunch at Ema was outstanding. I was meeting a colleague and wasn’t sure what to expect because we had a lot of work to cover. The entire staff was very helpful, courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. We received wonderful service and had a very healthy lunch. The food was great and all our salads were fresh and delicious.“

“Best halal food in the area, tried everything there, tastes authentic delicious and healthy.

“So I can't remember which bowl I got because this was my very first time eating here. But it had a spicy chicken and a whole bunch of vegetables and was delicious. The salad dressing was a little bit watery, so that would be the only thing that I would change. But that's pretty minuscule.“

“Wild Pita Mediterranean Grill is a standout spot that combines freshness, flavor, and friendliness in every meal. The food is absolutely delicious—from the perfectly seasoned shawarma and tender kebabs to the fresh salads, fluffy pita, and creamy hummus. Every bite tastes vibrant and authentic, and it’s clear the ingredients are top-notch and prepared with care.

The staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, always greeting customers with a smile and making sure orders are just right. Service is fast and efficient, whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout, and the portions are generous without being overpriced. The restaurant itself is clean, modern, and comfortable—perfect for a casual lunch or dinner.

Wild Pita has that rare mix of quality, consistency, and warmth that keeps you coming back. It’s the kind of place where everything—from the food to the service—feels thoughtfully done. Without question, it deserves a full five stars.“

“Fresh food and desserts Great service, definitely recommend it“

“Great selection, reasonable pricing, amazing customer service. Highly recommend.“

“Went here on a field trip with two busses worth of people, and all went smooth. Although we're were served a different menu due to the field trip, the food was still great, service members were kind and attentive, and the area was clean and inviting. Owner was bright and fun, and the staff were each wonderfully selected people. Definitely will come back to try the Greek selection!“

“I really enjoy Mediterranean food and this dish not disappoint. The trio of dips was super tasty and salmon and spinach salad good too and both were plenty to share between two for lunch and arrived to our table quickly. Pricing was reasonable too“

“This place *never* lets us down. The food is delicious, fresh and just so tasty. Their hummus is the BEST- they add some delicious garnishes on it. Best hummus I’ve ever had. Just too good and reliable. My kids love it too which is great.“

“Lunch: One of the best Cubano sandwiches I've ever had. Friends were quite satisfied with their salads and desserts (cheesecake and banana bread pudding). My chocolate layer cake was tasty. Very generous portion sizes and fantastic service.“

“We were looking for a Mediterranean restaurant and were driving by, so decided to try this place out.
Ordered Shawarma wraps of various kinds and some falafel and Baba Ghanoush. The restaurant had 2 rooms full of tables. The rooms lack atmosphere/decor, so if you are looking for that, you will be disappointed. The rooms are just places to sit and eat. Service was courteous but seemed to be slow considering only 2 tables were occupied. The food was very good and made up for the slow arrival.
Overall, decent experience, I would go again but not as a sit-down restaurant but as a take out place.“

“Stopped here for breakfast, 1st time and I would definitely recommend it. The service was excellent and the food was great (real, fresh, hot, cooked to order)! I had the sampler with oatmeal pancakes and they were delicious!!! My other options included the chicken avocado crepe and Mediterranean omelette. The coffee was good, it came to the table in its own thermal to stay hot. I highly recommend!!“

“My son recommended your restaurant to me, so I drove an hour to check it out! The staff was very friendly and the food was SO good! I ordered more food to bring home to my husband. We will definitely be back.“

“is a good place for eat healthy.“

“I recommend the Vegetable and FuFu“

“I participated in a poetry event in Alibaba. I admired & enjoyed great musicians: Marek Kulisiewicz I Marek Kalinowski. Sweet & well educated waitress Joanna added to a great atmosphere of the evening. You can meet many musicians & poets there. I had a great time last night in Alibaba. Thank you, Magda Mlodozeniec“

“Absolutely outstanding! The food is extremely fresh and timing of the dishes during our visit was spot on. Our sever, Juan, took care to watch from afar and make sure our meal flowed. The busser was on his game as well! I don’t think my water ever fell below the halfway point. We enjoyed the Gyros ( a must try), prawns, mussels, potatoes, and saganaki. The portions were perfect. To be honest, we should have called it quits after the prawns but we couldn’t help our selves, it was just that good. Owner stopped by for a quick hello and welcome. He’s doing a fantastic job with this location and I do hope he continues to do well. Highly recommend Mana for both the food and ambiance.“

“Christos D! Amazing! Hiloptes & Pastitsio was the best! Agatha.. send me some Hilopites to Iowa!“

“Fabulous food, drinks and service. The decor is modern and comfortable. Staff was very attentive and allowed us to stay after dinner and you didn't feel rushed. Lighting was lowered while we were there but that touch added to the ambiance. The meal was delicious and larger than expected at a fair price. We had burgers with roasted potatoes that were seasoned perfectly. Staff made sure we had water as compared to many establishments where you have to ask for a glass of water. Will return to try other items on the menu. Parking on the street and in a lot which you can access in the middle of the block was nice.“
