This establishment has wonderful retail food products from all over the Middle East.
Aside from their retail groceries, the quality of the foods they now serve, have fallen way down since Covid.
I bought a small container of their tabbouleh salad. It used to be so delicious, and fresh!. It was dark soggy, and didn't taste right.
Their homemade hummus used to be so yummy!! and have texture from the chickpeas. It has now been reduced to a baby food paste and watered down as well...
I also bought 3 pies,... meat, spinach, and cheese. These were always!! so fresh and delicious!. ...unfortunately, I had to call the store and tell them they were old and contents dried up inside!!..Are these pies dated?.. they obviously dont monitor the older pies, from the new ones!!... The spinach pie was soggy on the bottom, and tasted moldy...the cheese pie was empty of cheese as if it dried up inside... and the outside was as hard as a rock!!
The meat pie was half way decent but very dry in its texture...
This is NOT!! the quality it once was....
I wonder if the original owners sold it to the current owners???... because it is sooo disappointing now!!.. Also the chicken gyro spit tastes like fake processed chicken meat?? ....
Their food quality has gone way down hill.....
I was extremely disappointed, and let the man in charge, (owner?) know after I tasted each item purchased, when I got home.
He agreed to reimburse me for the 3 pies.
Still.....
Very disappointing experience!!
I hope they make the changes necessary to salvage their food side...
I miss the way everything was before, and the great quality their prepared foods once had.... ; (
I recently tried the chicken shawarma sandwich at your restaurant, and unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. The sandwich was dry, not warm, and lacked the flavor and texture expected from a proper shawarma. To be honest, it felt more like a plain lettuce wrap than a real chicken shawarma.
felt sick and ended up vomiting shortly after eating it
Also, the prices were quite high considering the quality and portion offered.
I don’t recommend this shawarma sandwich
I had a very bad experience at this place.
I ordered a chicken shawarma, and it was cold, tasteless, and stuffed with too much lettuce. No salt, no seasoning, it didn’t taste like shawarma at all.
The staff were not friendly, and I didn’t feel comfortable inside the restaurant.
On top of that, their prices are too expensive for the poor quality they serve.
Definitely won’t recommend this place!!!
The freshest pita you can buy. No kidding. You can watch them being made. A great deal of middle eastern food for sale. Plus a lunch counter. There is even a small sink for washing your hands before and after.
Very cool place!!

If you want the freshest pita bread, go here. They also have a small grocery store with a good selection of Middle Eastern cooking necessities, olives, produce, cheese, etc. They serve freshly prepared gyros, lamb burgers, shwarma, and more that hits the spot. And don't forget dessert. They have baklava and other pastries, and Turkish delight.

Literally. scammers. These people here scammed us of a $40 order. we put an order for Knafeh a day before, supposedly it will be made fresh next day, when we came next day the "lady" told us to go grab the Knafeh from the freezer, we told her we were told it would be made fresh, she said there is none, so we asked for a refund, she refused. We were in a hotel and didn't have a microwave in the room and no means to heat the Knafeh, she said not her problem. We left without the Knafeh or the money. These people are not very nice, the lady in the store was as rude and unfriendly as they come.
