“Our family has this game where we search the word "restaurants" and pick a random number... the we go down the list that many names and go to the number chosen. This was. We are totally coming back again Gems like this is why we like to leave it to gate lol“

“It’s difficult to even begin to describe how amazing this restaurant and it’s people are. So, I’ll share a little story for context. I live within walking distance and had stopped in a couple times for just a salad. They are so very good. There was a day a week or so ago that I woke up thinking about knafeh. It’s a dessert that is rarely found at any restaurant around here. If you haven’t ever tried it and lean towards desserts with a little savory aspect, TRY IT! It has cheese, sweetness and crunchy goodness. It’s made to order. So, I waited all day, then at dinner time went across the street and made a large order with some schwarma, kabobs, and KNAFEH. I paid and he told me it would be about 15 minutes. Then someone from the back came up and told me they were out of knafeh. He explained that never happens, but they just ran out of the ingredients on that particular day. I was so sad and told them how much I was looking forward to that one item. They apologized and offered me a baklava. I love baklava, but I just wasn’t feeling it that day so they refunded me for that item. I told them I was going to run an errand then come back for the food. When I came back about 15 minutes later, the guy at the front counter told me it was gong to be another 15 minutes, because when the owner found out how much I was looking forward to knafeh, he decided to LEAVE TO GO GET THE INGREDIENTS TO MAKE ME SOME! I could not believe this level of customer service. This was quite an amazing way to show your restaurant goes above and beyond! When I got home with my kanafeh and lots of other foods, I immediately cut a piece for my daughter and myself. We ate it first! It was spectacular and even better than I had imagined it all day. 20 out of 10! If you have never tried it, RUN to Jasmine! But while you’re there, try their other menu items. You will Not be disappointed! So far from there we have also tried and been overly impressed by their fatuch, beef and lamb schwarma, yellow rice, chicken kabobs, shrimp kabobs, kofta kabobs, lentil soup, hummus, baba ganoush, stuffed grape leaves, salad, and falafels. It is definitely our number one local restaurant currently and we have a million to choose from right by us! I'm including a pic of that perfect knafeh and some kabobs, veggie platter, and schwarma. It's all PERFECT! Even picky daughter approved!“

“We’ve been coming to Greco since the first one opened in Blakney. We love the food and the people. Tonight we are in the Waxhaw location the food was great as always and Jenny was so sweet! We were there to celebrate our 12 year old daughter’s birthday (she’s been going to Greco since she was born) and Jenny brought her out a piece of baklava to help celebrate.“

“A nice place with a number of food varieties to choose from. I like their shawarma the most than others. Also, to say that the seating and the environment feel so nice. Remember to try the chicken sandwich that contains enough chicken content and the taste is great too. Lastly, never miss trying the salads and soup.“

“One of the best restaurants in CLT. Consistency is perpetual here. Food, beverage, ambiance, all top notch They even have live music on Fridays All warm, welcoming smiles from the host desk all the way to the wait staff and managers. Bartenders are great. Especially G, he's the man! You're treated like family here. Do yourself a favor and pay them a visit. You will not be disappointed. The grilled octopus is a must!“

“I just have to say what a great place this is! I’ve been ordering here for years. Their food is always fresh and flavorful and the people working there are courteous! Tonight I ordered from Door Dash and wanted extra Pita. There wasn’t a place to order on the app and I told the gal on the phone I was happy to pay for it. She said, “no problem, I’ll throw some in no charge.” I told her she was the bright spot in my otherwise difficult day. And when I opened my order I saw this message on the box. It almost made me cry because I had just come from cleaning out my Moms house and she recently passed away. Kindness is so meaningful and this person had no idea what was going on-she’s just a wonderful person spreading kindness. Thank you Greco Fresh! The food is enough to keep me coming back but now they have a customer for life. ?“

“I consider myself an experienced fried chicken expert! I've ate fried chicken all across this country. I've had some amazing chicken and I've had some really bad chicken . US Fried chicken is absolutely outstanding . I've been here so many times it's embarrassing . The chicken is so flavorful, so juicy so hot . The service is absolutely flawless . One of the best chicken spots in North Carolina .“

“We had a salad with the chicken kabob. Very fresh tasty. The kabob was flavorful and most, not over or under done. Also had the chicken gyro. One of the best. Read someone else's review about the fries. The oopah fries are very flavorful with the herbs and feta. Will definitely go again when in the area.“

“Every time my mother and I go to this location the staff is always friendly and helpful, especially the young black lady with the hair wrap and nose rings she really goes above and beyond to help the customer. We love coming to this Cava location in particular the best because of the service we receive from her and the other staff?“

“I have been to many cavas throughout the United States and Charlotte region, and I will have to say, this Cava beats them all! the food is fresher than any other restaurant- and great customer service. Gabe provided excellent customer service during our visit, always friendly and exceeds expectations!“

“So my Uber delivery driver brought me the wrong food I called Uber with zero resultI called the restaurant and to my surprise they offer to get me the right meal and my money back but the service was so pleasant I couldn’t even bring myself to go through with the claim I went there pick up my food and got a dessert for free“

“The food is so delicious! I got a chance to attend a soft launch of the new location at camp north end and Oh my it was worth the wait. There was a line but the service in there was so good and fast it made the whole experience even more amazing. I ordered the combo(lamb and chicken over rice) and the meat was so tender and everything was just the perfect bite. The hummus!! I cannot forget the hummus it was so smooth and packed full of flavor. I lie not I will be back tomorrow, InshaAllah. The new location is a modern easy to navigate place, open counter and greeted immediately when entering. The amazing service and the savory scent of spice when walking in help build the ambiance and a beautiful ambiance indeed. As you can see from the pictures nothing was waisted . May Allah continue to put Barakah in to your business and continue your success.“

“I’ve never tried Mediterranean food and with this being my first time, I wasn’t disappointed. The food was cooked to order and arrived at our table fresh. I enjoyed every bite. Also, the owner and staff were very kind and welcoming and accommodated our every need promptly and professionally“

“Stopped by this past weekend, ordered my fav chicken shawarma, hummus and cedar for 2...did not disappoint! The grocery store has everything you need and pita bread yummy! I live a hour and so away so it was worth stopping by and I’ll be back. The cashiers were also so kind and nice, God bless them.“

“Had been wanting to try Mezeh and finally got a chance to. I was pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere when I walked in and appreciated how the decor was colorful and looked authentic to the cuisine. It was overall clean too. The menu has a good variety to choose from, and I went with a classic bowl with harissa chicken. I was happy with the variety of ingredients they offered and it felt like a healthy and fresh meal. Overall I would come back again! The price was reasonable in today's crazy environment. And service was fine as well.“
