We ordered gyros and Italian beef for delivery. I’m rating this as a former lifelong Chicagoan and comparing the gyros and Italian beef from what I grew up on. I was genuinely excited to have some food that reminded me of home! The gyros were pretty good! A little small compared to what we’re used to for the money. Gyros in Chicago are loaded with meat, onions, tzatziki, and feta cheese. Tastewise, pretty spot on! Unfortunately, the Italian beef fell way short in comparison. I grew up on Al’s Italian Beef and Portillo’s. This sandwich definitely misses the mark. The au jus is not au jus from the beef slow cooking in all the seasonings, as they do in Chicago. We instead received straight beef broth, no seasonings in it at all. The giardinera is not good at all. Overall, the Italian beef was a huge disappointment. My mom barely ate any of hers. She was not happy. But, for someone not familiar with Chicago Italian beef, they may like it! If I didn’t have anything to compare it with, it would be a decent sandwich. The fries were awesome though, crispy, salted well, and had a cool shape to it. So, overall, since we ordered two Italian beefs and two gyros, half our meal was a disappointment and way overpriced for what we received. Can’t rate service or atmosphere, as we did not dine in. So out of 5 stars, I’m giving it 3 stars.

Best lamb burger I've ever had (and I've traveled internationally just for food). The service was excellent. My partner and I came in on a night when it wasn't very busy, so we got to chat extensively with Amir, the owner's nephew. I actually really wanted to go back the very next day for that burger again, but we were only there for a very short weekend and had a wedding to go to the next day and flew out the morning after the wedding. I'd love to visit them again just for that burger. I probably won't opt to share it again. I want one all to myself next time.

Their beef schwarma rocks! The hummus options are great, too.

I got the spinach and feta flat bread, beef shawarma, and tiramisu. The olive oil on the flat bread is the TRUTH! Everything was phenomenal! Very clean restaurant with attentive staff. Loved the ambiance, and it was easily on par flavor wise with anything we've ordered in Bahrain or Turkey.

Excellent chicken wings, juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside. The Gyro was also excellent, with lots of meat! This is a great place to stop. Very cool atmosphere and decoration. Tasty spices!

Ordered the fries with a side of the gyro sandwich...there i said it ...
Good food, good service, but they don’t show prices for drinks and a shot is $8 … you can go anywhere for a better price than that

The food was really good, service was good. Did not care for the Palestinian propaganda hanging. I understand you maybe proud but due to all the violence and murders going on, might not be a good thing to display.

Popular Mediterranean menu, with an Italian twist and a Dutch name, comes with excellent large, twisty fries and the gyro I have ever enjoyed. Smaller servings then then lesser gyros elsewhere, thinner wrap then elsewhere make this a full and flavored gyro. Wife loved hers as much and praised the warm fries even more.

We were visiting Tupelo for the first time and decided to try this place for an early dinner. The food, service, and atmosphere weren't bad, but near the end of dinner I noticed the Palestinian flags posted behind the bar area. Wish I had seen them earlier. We would have taken our business elsewhere.
