Food was straight, not mad at it. The bummer was that my to-go order which I placed in the restaurant was left out for close to 10 minutes. I had to approach the counter to ask for it myself without knowing if it was ready or not and after looking for it for a moment, they located my order. I had to reheat my food, but the flavors were cool. Maybe it was just my luck, but the food wasn't so good that I got to run back. Other places nearby are comparable and I'll get my food on time. Place has cool vibes, but the food is just ok for the price.

This is really a hidden gem in Madison. Tucked away in the parking lot by Eastside bowl, this is some of the freshest and brightest Mediterranean food in town. I can't speak to the shawarma as a vegetarian, but the Hummus, Baba ghanoush, Falafel, salad, fries and sauces were all Excellent. Really recommend giving them a try.

Friendly staff and really good food. Their beef hummus bowl looks fantastic in its presentation. It has great flavor with the pickled veggies, and I really enjoyed the roasted eggplant. I have been here a few times, and everything is good, but I will probably order that dish every time.

I was really excited to check out a new shawarma joint in Madison. The vibe was super cool and the service was friendly and helpful. Plenty of free parking is also a plus in this area! It was super cool that they had a water station and 2 gender neutral bathrooms. I was really excited about them having garlic toum since we don't really have any Mediterranean in town with that element and the zattar fries with it were a very creative and modern twist that did not disappoint. The chicken in the shawarma wrap was really good but unfortunately, I just didn't enjoy it as much in wrap form. The different flavors in Mediterranean salad with shawarma and pickled veggies are just better experienced separately and the wrap didn't hold up and just wasn't as satisfying and fluffy as fresh baked pita on the side, fresh from a brick oven. It's a great idea and has great flavors but was just a modern twist that didn't work for me. I still enjoyed the experience but will probably just go back to our boring street food type Greek around here for a better value with more meat and veggies for the $.

Exceptional food! So many delicious and unique flavors in the lamb schwarma! Really enjoyed it. And the hummus and pita is very good! Pita came out fluffy and warm.

The staff was very kind and helpful, answering allergy questions.
Highly recommend!
