This is good Mediterranean food. We had the Gyro small family platter and that was enough to feed 2 people and take another meal home for each. Not bad for $23. The accompanying salad is very tasty. The service is sometimes a little slow, but the food is excellent.

Food was amazing, spouse got the vegetarian meat balls and I got the combination shawarma. The hummus included was also great. The shawarma meats were great on their own and mixed together. Therice, which looked like saffron rice but I didn't read close enough to prove that, was also very good.

I have worked in Turkey for around five years and have always loved Turkish and Mediterranean food. Keeping that craving alive, I recently visited Alquds Rio Rancho with three of my friends to take away some food and make them experience the same flavours I used to enjoy in Turkey.

While waiting at the counter for about 20 minutes, I noticed that the lady at the front was handling multiple takeaway orders. She looked very nervous but still maintained a polite smile while assisting everyone. Suddenly, we heard loud yelling from inside the restaurant. A man was shouting and cursing her in Turkish — which I could clearly understand because of my work experience in Turkey. The words he used were extremely disrespectful.

It was shocking and embarrassing to witness such behaviour inside a restaurant. The lady’s face showed how hurt and scared she was, yet she continued to serve customers calmly and professionally. No employee deserves to be treated that way, especially in front of customers.

Though the food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere completely spoiled the mood to stay there. It’s very disappointing to see such mistreatment happening in an otherwise good place. Because of this incident, we have decided not to visit again and will look for other Mediterranean restaurants instead.

First started eating at their original location over 10 years ago. This location is much closer to me and the food is authentic and everything I I’ve tried has been delicious. The owner is also very kind and works very hard. I eat here with my elderly mom and he has offered us water to go on several occasions after we finish eating. It feels good to support a local business.
