“Tried for 1st time and it was great. The prices are very reasonable for what you get and the service was fast.“

“The meat is delicious & the rice is the most falourful than any other place. Love the ambiance too.“

“Have eaten here several times. The last time I went was in a weekend and I ate the Schnitzel on challah special. It was fantastic! A must try.“

“One of my favorites!Always amazing. Beef Shwarma plate is my favorite.“

“Where do I even begin? The pita? Perfect texture and taste. The cherry tomatoes? Obviously fresh, juicy, and sourced from a great farm. The romain? Plentiful and CRISP. The Dill and Taziki sauce? Also VERY fresh, has a citrus kick somewhere, and seems to be made fresh as well. Because it doesn't taste like a store bought sauce filled with preservatives. The hummus? That might actually be where the citrus is from. However, the hummus is not overly salty! You can actually taste the Chickpeas and they use good ingredients as well as olive oil for the hummus too! The chicken? Is in NO way shape or form dry and it's actually seasoned! It's juicy and normal is it overcooked. The olives? Brothers and sisters I HATE olives by themselves, rarely on certain foods. But these olives are not overpowering and stealing the flavor profile, it just adds more depth to the flavor bomb of the Greek chicken Pita! The feta? What could be bettah? Seriously though if you can see this picture you should've seen that they don't skip on the feta either. Again the flavor is ALL the way there but not overpowering. While the texture is almost creamy. Probably with assistance from the sauce but still, it's not overly dry! 10/10 Would recommend & I will be back! Now the facility was spotless, the cleanest "fast food" I've ever seen. The staff? Phenomenonal, personable, kind, attentive to details, and downright superstars that make that place run like clockwork! Wooooo wo weeeee wo!!! If you haven't been here then you've got to go!! Moderate prices, exceptional ingredients, lovely staff, and clean facilities(where the staff actually care like the NW Expressway location in OKC). I'm out, ty for listening to my Ted talk! 🫡“

“Delicious food !! Great service.“

“Tasty food and this guy is so nice!! The soup is so so good. And the Jerusalem salad. Love the canned juices in the cooler! Huge cans of 100% juice in flavors we can't get elsewhere like passion fruit & watermelon. Generous portions, casual atmosphere. Appreciate the padding on the chairs. It's a relaxing place to eat. My family says the food is "amazing" "pita and hummus and shawarma are quite good.". We'll be back.“

“Was there Thursday night we had Braised Short ribs and crispy Brussels sprouts was delicious service was great the bartender colie made me a special drink Wow will definitely be back“

“Deliciousness!! I’m new to the area and was looking for tasty Mediterranean food! This hit the spot! The portion size is huge, food is delicious, and lots of variety too!
They need an “open” sign in front because I almost left thinking they were closed.“

“I've not been in person and I will be one day...but I order a lot off Grubhub...if you're looking for a good deal and even better flavor its here! I always get the mega breakfast combo 3 eggs, hash browns, sausage, bacon, ham...and either toast or pancakes (always the pancakes!) for $14. If I had any complaint it would be I want more syrup cause the pancakes here are dense (which isn't bad...who doesn't like thicc pancakes)...so they like to soak all the syrupy goodness up, also...if I had an option to add cheese to my scrambled eggs...that are already perfectly made. Customer for life here! Seriously who needs Walker Bros when there's Coco's Cafe?“

“Very good authentic food. The sweetest owner!“
