Too expensive & portions too small. Explain to me how family meal of 6 small wraps ($75) feeds 6-8 people if one person can eat two of these wraps?

By far the worst stomach pain and diarrhea I have ever had. The employees barely speak a word of English and the food is very clearly ancient. I am willing to bet some of the rice was made during the time of the Eastern Roman Empire! The Lamb gyro deserves carbon dating. My hypothesis is that the lamb used has gone extinct since then as it appeared to have the taste and texture of clay or what would otherwise not pass as edible food matter even by modern US standards (where practically anything is considered edible). And the pasta was as tasteful as Goebel’s sense of humor.Interesting archeological site from a culinary perspective.

Stopped by today for lunch with my wife, ordered a gyro not the meal just the gyro and a topó chico, once I arrived home I noticed I had a charge for $23! The young guy at the register never gave me a receipt so I was unaware of the amount I was charged. The gyro was rather small by any standards, not to say it wasn’t delicious. My wife and I were asking ourselves why the place had no patrons at the time we sat and ate and now we know why. We’re from NYC where prices can be a bit on the steep side but $23 dollars for a flour tortilla wrapped gyro that resembled a taquito and a topo chico is just robbery in my opinion. Hopefully this was a big misunderstanding and the owners mediate this situation.

Counter-serve spot inside the food court at POST. I stopped in on New Years Eve around 9 pm. There was a bit of a wait in line, but the items I wanted were on the food line. I did the quarter chicken with rice and added on chicken curry. The chicken in both was super tender and full of comforting flavor. Every bite was so good. The price is fair being inside the food court. $15 for the food, but the $6 I paid for the water was crazy. I would go back for the food.

I lived in the Middle East for 12 years. My wife is from Iran. We will both tell you this was the most authentic Mediterranean food we have had in Houston. The lamb shank I was served was absolutely wonderful. I read some of the reviews complaining the prices were high. Go compare the price and quality of this food to any other Mediterranean (or Iranian) restaurant in Houston. Another review complained about the garlicky mayo sauce. That reviewer obviously had no experience with authentic Mediterranean food because garlicky mayo is absolutely traditional. My complaint elsewhere is in not finding it available. We left completely stuffed. Take any negative comment with a grain of salt. Do yourself a favor and try this unlikely diamond in the rough. I will say they should feature the lamb shank prominently so people see it when they walk up and look at the visible dishes. Lamb shank is on the menu but is not on display. Arabella! Put that lamb shank on display! It needs to be showcased!

Prices are expensive
The food was pretty good, but the menu was kind of difficult to understand. They also didn't have any cups for some reason.

Love the food, the lamb shanks was so tender. They serve these beef stuffed balls not sure of the name but it’s very flavorful. It was a great place to try the owner was so kind. Definitely will come back again.

Place class! Thanks for all!
Got the veg plate - worst quality middle eastern food. Everything was stale/old. Hummus tasted bad, baba ganoush was rancid. Worried that I may get food poisoning. Would not recommend. Waste of money.
