Jayleen's Special / Zeytin Mediterranean

Surprisingly good spot. Food was much more substantial then I expected. I had the lamb and it was great. The sauces added were very very good. One of my fav sauces I’ve had in a gyro.

Great prices, delicious and authentic food. The owners are very hospitable and generous.

I’ve literally never had better tasting Mediterranean

Walking around lower NYC we stumbled on Mediterranean Cuisine. We had a humus platter, chicken gyro and a grilled octopus. Honestly, they were fantastic. The octopus was grilled perfectly. The chicken was moist. Salads were tasty and fresh. As you can see - we ate every bite!

We stopped in here by chance. Got a gyro platter, falafel and salads. Food was very fresh. Maybe the best Mediterranean I’ve had. Highly recommend it!

The food is all specially fresh and well cooked by Jayleen's special/ Zeytin. The food is amazing and the customer service is definitely satisfying. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

I used to come to this place a lot since it's close to my office. The food doesn't seem to be as good as it used to, I ordered the beef/lamb gyro platter and couldn't even finish it. The meat is sliced in huge chunks and it taste like it's been out there for a while, the sides are not nearly as good as they used to be. The quality has definitely gone down, and it's probably because they offer pizza too now. I also saw the person grab the pita bread with her hands without any gloves after she was texting on her phone, she just placed it in the bag without wrapping it.

I had Chicken Shawara Tuesday and Lamb on Friday - the best one on downtown area!

Ordered a Falafal platter, was very disappointed with the taste. The bread was dry, rubbery and a little burnt. the falafal's were too dry, barely any sauces along with the platter.

3 stars and that's generous. 3 stars as it cost only $6 for lamb gyro with bread plus soda and the bread was fantastic. .Plate was rather on small side, gyro was under-seasoned and in chunks I have never gotten from any gyro place. There was not a single slice of any veggie ,not a slice of tomato even. Judging from the bread style this is of some Turkish ownership and the bread itself was tasty and good in size. If this is in fact a Turkish owned / operated place then it is a shame, far far away from even the most mediocre Donner I had ever. If you want a good bread then it is a place for you but meat and overall taste i would stay away. Will not go back as not impressed with food but also due to how hot it was inside for the workers, inhumane working conditions in my opinion. Just kept thinking of the girl who worked there and felt so bad. Will not be supporting this business.

This is great Mediterranean street food, which we all know is frankly difficult to come by in NYC... lots of love for the halal and biryani carts but those definitely veer towards Indian/Persian style. Very refreshing to eat non-bland falafel with good sauces... the meats are also good and the bread, while still a bit Americanized, is awesome. My only complaint is that the hummus really needs some tahini and lemon squeezed in, maybe some garlic too...enough with the bland hummus, dear Americans. Will be returning!

Pizza crust burn & tasted nasty. Never again

The food is very good and the price affordable.

Great food and great price! I hope they stay in the area for a long time.
