They messed up my order and don’t even offer me a refund. I just gave them the food back. Just waisted 19$. Stay away from this

The gyro was I think the best I've ever had. The sauces are fantastic!! If you're in the area make sure to give it a try. The next time I'm there I'll upload a video.

Excellent Middle Eastern food in downtown Evanston. We chose this place because we wanted something casual after a long day in Chicago and on the Northwestern campus, and this was just the sort of place we were looking for.You order at the counter and pick it up when it's ready, but when the workers in the kitchen noticed that we had some elderly people in our group with mobility issues, they offered to take the food to our table. They were very helpful in answering our questions about specific dishes and any recommendations they had. It was nice that there is an option to substitute the rice for a salad for their plates, for those of us trying to keep our triglyceride levels in check.We tried a variety of dishes. The portions are enormous; each entree could have easily fed two of us. We all left with takeout boxes for a midnight snack or lunch the next day.Among the items we had were:Falafel on a salad - this came with six fairly large falafels on a bed of salad, generous portions of baba ganoush and hummus, and a pita. The falafels were crispy but not overcooked and hot in the center.Kofta kebab on a salad - seasoned ground beef formed into "logs" and grilled. These were just a little red in the center, which is the way we prefer it, but still cooked to a safe temperature. It was moist and the flavors were very good.Gyros on a salad - this was my dish, and I liked it quite a bit. Most of the gyros pieces were thick and soft, but of course there are a few small pieces that get a little more thoroughly cooked. I enjoyed the salad but it came with an awful lot of olives, and I'm just not an olive guy.Other people in our group got the chicken kebab and the beef shawarma, which I didn't try, but they had positive comments.So, this was a satisfying and enjoyable experience and highly recommended. Great food, relaxed atmosphere, and outstanding service.

Short story? Some of the best, largest, freshest falafel and shawarma I’ve ever had. Guys were way too sweet and gave us a little extra of everything. Hands down my favorite Mediterranean spot.
