The food was absolutely delicious. Last minute lucky find. Highly recommend the Falafel Bowl and the fresh mint lemonade. Phoenician fries. My husband said it was the best Gyro. We rate this place 10 out of 10. Service was so friendly. Cute inside dining. Very large portions!! Delish!!

This place is crazy good, sometimes I think it's so hard to find good Mediterranean food, and I can't speak highly enough about their food. We've ordered a few times on doordash (how we found out about it), but today we went in. Everything was made fresh, the staff was so helpful and nice. They need some music or something in there, but otherwise MAN I really hope they take off soon! They deserve a lot of attention.

Had never been here before but Cathy did a good job of explaining the process and what everything tasted like and provided overall amazing service. I loved my bowl and will definitely be coming here regularly now!

My favorite local eatery rn. The portions are HUGE, filling, and delicious!! They also do a great deal on Tuesdays, so bring a friend! The hand squeezed lemonade is some of the best I've ever had.

Everything I have tried at this restaurant has been delicious. The gyros, the bowls, the drinks, all of it. The owners are some of the nicest people too, they make everyone feel welcome.A special shoutout to the dolmas they make too…absolutely delicious! I could eat 20 of those in one sitting.

Not enough words to describe this place! It is amazing and little hidden gem. A must try! Some of the best Mediterranean food I have had in the burbs. Bowls, pitas, wraps, and more. Love their Phoenician fries, dolmades, chicken shawarma. Food is always fresh and delicious. The portions are plentiful and the prices are great. The staff is absolutely fantastic and willing to go over and beyond to make your dining experience wonderful. I 100% recommend this place and try to get there every week or so. Enjoy!!

I've been coming here since they opened and they have never once disappointed. The flavor and quality of food is unmatched (that chicken shawarma pita pocket will never disappoint) on top of the amount of food you receive for an amazing price. They are always so friendly and welcoming to see you when you come in which just adds to that extra love in their food. Also, the ginger mint lemonade will leave you HOOKED.

Not only was the food amazing and the portions large, but the staff was so kind and lovely. The guy who made our bowls offered us a taste of their (fresh and still hot!) falafel and chicken. The tawook chicken in particular is unbelievable. I live in chicago was in the area for work, wish it was closer to me!
