“Stacy made us feel welcome immediately with a huge smile and warm greeting. When she heard it was our first time there, we were offered samples along with an excellent description of the dishes. Once the food was served, my tastebuds did the happy dance! The food was absolutely delicious and I can’t wait to go back!“

“Fresh, healthy and delicious food. Highly recommend.“

“I went in for dinner tonight. I explained to the man taking my order I could not have bread or rice due to a health condition. He was extremely helpful and accommodating. I ordered the lamb kebab . It was placed on a beautiful salad with some hummus on the side. My first time trying lamb was absolutely amazing. So delicious and tender. The buisness was clean and pleasant. I would recommend this place to everyone. Thank you jenjen?“

“Food was great, I got stared at by a homeless guy while I ate through the glass windows and the staff didn’t do anything and actually one of the restaurant patrons went to chase him off. My mom thanked the lady taking plates away and the lady never said anything back. One of the weirdest dining experiences of my life but the lamb was amazing, would recommend to anyone.“

“Really delicious food, chill atmosphere, and the store is great! Everything we have tried is a certified banger: -Chicken or Lamb Shawarma -Tabouleh -Falafel -Hummus -Pistachio Baklava -Pita Do yourself a favor and get yourself some!“

“I've passed by a few times. We were headed somewhere else today but decided to try this healthier option. Drive-thru was fine & simple. Looked like there were quite a few food options on the menu, but we got the basic gyro. I ordered the combo, but for some reason the guy didn't hear my order from the driver's seat, so we did a recap at the window. No problem.
Glad I made this choice. We loved our gyros. Perfect texture, & ratio of meat to pita to sauce & veggies. Fries (crinkle cut) I ordered ordered were fine. I generally prefer homemade chips (not an option, personal preference).
The service was friendly, polite, professional & not rushed. An added ending plus were the white chocolate chip lemon(?) cookies added in. It was the 'icing on the cake', so to speak. Tasty, not too crumbly & not too soft. I will definitely be coming back here regularly & highly recommending it to friends.“

“Central Bodega is the best date night dining experience in town. It is quaint, yet sophisticated. The service is very good. The food, particularly the lamb, is out of this world!“

“Always delicious. My only stop when in Albuquerque...Thank you Pars for your delicious cuisine and for supporting The Art of the Belly Dancer. God bless you in 2023 and always“

“great food but better service. was there during the balloon fiesta and had the best customer service in my entire life. they comped my food because i was feeling a little ill from altitude sickness. the waiter, manager and server all checked on me. they said because i did not enjoy my food (again not their fault)that i should not be charged, because in their words the food did not live up to the expectations of the restaurant. i will not hesitate in trying it again the next time i am in albuquerque. awesome restraunt , if you are in the area give it a try .“

“I had an amazing experience at Shawarma Express! The food was absolutely delicious — I ordered the chicken shawarma salad, and it was packed with flavor. The chicken was perfectly grilled, tender, and well-seasoned. The garlic sauce was rich and creamy, and added the perfect finishing touch to the meal.
Portion size was generous, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. The presentation was neat and clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. You can really taste the love in every bite.

Highly recommend this place for anyone craving quality Mediterranean food at a great price. I’ll definitely be coming back for more! 🍽️🔥💯“

“lamb Gyro Plate with the salad, and rice was very well worth the money. It was great quality and authentic Mediterranean. Would highly recommend.“

“Thus little hole in the wall has the best Gyros, tatziki sauce, and Baklava in the city. Better than Mykonos, Gyros.. and they are much more expensive.. sit enjoy a place that's been there for 40 years ( or more?), and enjoy some great Greek food.“
