I got the vegetarian platter for lunch. I wonder if the baba ganouj had fake smoke added to it. It was a little overwhelming, as was the salt level. I'm here for a salty dish, but this was next level. In general, I love this type of food, so I probably would go back, but I would hope to see these small changes.

I don't know what the rest of these review customers know about authentic Middle Eastern food but this is garbage. I ordered a Gyro. I get to the restaurant and even though it clearly on the menu, there was no gyro available and the woman could not explain why. I got the swarma wrap. What a joke. Old meat served at noon? Pickles not cucumbers? Thousand island dressing no thaziki sauce. I will never eat at this hole again. I'm sure they do well because there's a college across the street.completely unauthentic food. What a let down.

Good vegan options! The veggie options are little pricey for what you get, but still very tasty.

Love it here. My favorite sandwich is the shish tawook, the fries are almost always perfect and crispy, the owner is incredibly kind and friendly, all around great experience and solid Mediterranean option.

This place has the best falafel, perfectly done and no bitterness. The grape leaves are also a standout. I wish they were open on Sundays, my typical dining out day. I also wish they offered wine or beer. Ambiance is non-existent, so maybe that's why. But if your dinner date is interesting enough and the food is good, who cares?
The best chicken shawarma sandwiches in Metro Detroit. Better than anywhere in Dearborn. Getcha some.

This place has been on my list of places to check out. Had an errand in the area today around lunchtime so this was a logical stop. I'd planned to eat in, but that doesn' t seem to be what they're set up for these days. There are some tables along the walls, but no one was sitting at them and there were no placemats, silverware etc. set down. The center of the restaurant was wide open and empty, and the whole place had this air of bereftness. I'd swear I'd walked back into late 2020. There were some take-out orders on the counter, and guess those represent the bulk of their business now. The person at the counter seemed surprised when I said I was there to order, not pick up, and confused by taking my order in person. What I ordered was a greek salad w/ chicken. That would be a few minutes, she said, since she would have to go into the kitchen and cook the chicken. Must have been the only one working. I'd expected to to wait a bit, so I sat down at one of the tables along the wall, but had already decided I was going to take the salad to go. The atmosphere was kind of depressing, and I didn't like the picture of me sitting alone in the empty restaurant under the gaze of the lone employee. I'd rather eat alone in my car. Plus, there was an unpleasant rancid smell hanging about. Once I'd parked in a quiet, shady spot and opened the clamshell, my first look at the salad wasn't encouraging. Lettuce seemed tough and a bit dry, lot of outer leaves. Only a light sprinkling of feta, and no pepperoncini. The kalamatas were pale and very hard--it took some pushing to get a fork into one. When I ate one it had little flavor. I didn't eat any more. Two cups of creamy-style greek dressing were tucked into the greens, and these tasted more oily than tangy. And I should menton, I paid $20 for this delightful entree. I get greek salads fairly regularly, and have had them at many diners and middle eastern restaurants, and I can say this was the second worst one I have ever had. The only saving grace to it was the chicken. A heaping portion of it, very tender and lightly seasoned. The chicken is the only reason this place gets two stars instead of one. If the hummus and tabouli here are decent, a few slices of the chicken with those would make a pretty good meal. But in spite of the glowing yelps others have given, I am not at all inclined to return and confirm that.

One of the best spots in Ypsi, if you are near EMU I highly recommend you check it out. Their Spicy Whitefish was so delicious I ended up ordering it two days in a row!
