We ordered the Chicken Shwarma plate served with a delectable yellow rice, hummus, a traditional Greek style salad with lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, and topped with Feta. We also tried a bowl of the Lentil soup served with rice. It's affordable food and seasoned well. The personal choices such as the dressing for the salad had too much vinegar or the preparation...

A State Street classic! Best Mediterranean food in the area. Used to eat here multiple times a week when in college. Happy to see years later they are still here and the food is just as amazing! Try the chicken apricot pie. You will not be disappointed. Finish it off with a piece of baklava.

The plates are affordable and the portion sizes are perfect. In terms of food, the highlight for me was the hummus! It's a great spot since it's very accessible from the campus. The service is super quick and a good option for those looking for a quick meal before heading to work. I love the vibs and the seating which is very conducive for conversation but with also smaller table options for those seeking alone time.
