I would personally take the time to look over their menu before going if it’s your first time trying this type of food. With that being said everything that we got was absolutely delicious. We ordered the five different types of hummus on the sampler and got the soup plus the redfish skillet. Every hummus was delicious, the soup was great, and probably one of the best redfish I’ve ever eaten. Would definitely recommend to anyone.Dietary restrictions: There is vegan and gluten free options.
The food was amazing I had the chicken swarma and I wasn't disappointed. The new server Mary was amazing with a great personality. My props to the cook she do e her thing back there.

Nope!!! We have been living in this area over 10 years and have been to this restaurant off and on for the past 6 years. Everything USED TO BE FINE. Not anymore. We sat down to order a meal. There was 2 of us. We ordered one appetizer and two entrees ! Nothing usual. The owner operator comes to our table BEFORE the meal and plops down the bill demanding payment and I don’t have my glasses on ! The meal was 90 dollars !!! She gave herself gratuity and the prices had tripled ! It was not a good experience as she seemed to be off in the head and I foresee this place closing ! Ripping people off and food was mediocre with a black hair in it

Okay, so here goes. I hate to be a stickler for service, quality, and taste, and sometimes I wonder if I'm too demanding, but I'll put my honest review here.We are new to the area and saw the restaurant's sign from across the parking lot. We looked the place up online and tried to get a feel for the menu on their unfinished website, but not much was there. So, we decided to pop in.First off, the young girl acted like we were a 100% inconvenience. We were the only 2 people in the restaurant an hour and a half prior to their posted closing time. She has a room full of tables marked reserved and not a single customer but me and my partner.She sat us and we tried to order. 50% of what we requested, they didn't have. I tried to order their most expensive dish, moussaka at $30, and they were out. Then we tried to order falafel, and they didn't have any. At this point, I'm asking myself, how do they not have either the most expensive or least expensive menu items? We ordered hummus and pita, baba ganoosh, and 2 gyro sandwiches.The hummus and baba ganoush arrived with exactly 2 small pieces of this whole wheat pita bread cut into quarters. Of course, there wasn't enough pita to finish the dishes. The baba ganoush was gelatinous and oddly transparent. Neither was very good at all. We thought we would use the remainder on our gyros.When the gyros arrived, I had to laugh. They were not on pita. Hand to God, this is the first I have ever seen this, but they were made on small Mexican flour tortillas with 2 pieces of gyro meat and some sauce. They were wrapped and about 1/4 "-1/2" thick and about 5 inches long and 2 inches wide. Think of a small thin burrito? It was easily the strangest excuse of food I have ever eaten, and I have eaten Arabic food around the world. We were charged $8 for each of these two sad little hot-pocket wannabes.This was hands down the worst food I have ever eaten in my life. It was something you would roll up and throw to your dog. It was not good; it was not Arabic; it was not Middle Eastern; it wasn't good enough to be a joke.The floor around our table had food all over it. The waitress took our plates, dropping the little burrito wrapper on the floor and more food. She made no effort to clean it, so I cleaned her mess up.You would be better to go to McDonalds, honestly, and I despise the food there. 1 star on food because you can't give 0 stars or a negative star. Do yourself a favor and go hungry before you eat this food. I still want to believe I was being punked.Parking: Huge parking lotWheelchair accessibility: Open space.

The pita chips and ice tea are worth the trip on their own. But! The food itself is phenomenal, the lady who runs it was so sweet, we loved the place. For sure will be back!
Not impressed with the food at all! I do not recommend this place. The gyro was small and the meat was almost invisible. For $22 and pocket change it was not worth the waste of time or effort to come here. I should have gone to Whataburger instead….

Got the mujaradah "platter" which is tasty and healthy but was disappointed to find out that this item which is listed under "platter" on the menu is not in that category and does not have all of the sides that come with a platter. The menu should address this issue to prevent others from this disappointment. I feel the price is high for the meal and the other items in the platter would have been worth the price.

10/30/22Came for the 1st timeOrdered the lentil soup (cup): 5/5Combination late: 1.5/5The chicken wasn't fully cooked to me--not tender at all.The gyro was well-prepared, but it wasn't seasoned right to me. Spices were used...but I didn't taste any sodium. If you are on a salt-free diet, this place is for you.I will stay with the Mediterranean restaurants in Alexandria. They taste more flavorful.

The waitress was nice and its not her fault. But we paid $70 for 2 small portions of food and an appetizer. The food was really good but I felt ripped off when I saw the portion sizes of the food

The food is delicious. Would have given a higher rating but the prices have sky rocketed without any change in the portion sizes. It's a mom and pop place so food is prepared when you order.
