“ Delicious chicken kebab, and grape leaves. Would recommend grabbing a yogurt drink from back of the store and some dessert from the store on your way out as well ”
“ Well it is a market store so I can’t say I would go there for the atmosphere... but I will tell ya that Zomg best meal of this entire trip the Gyro plate was killer! The best falafel I have ever had in my life!! If I lived near this place I would be there all the time! Stuffed grape leaves were amazing the baba ghanoush was amazing. The rice had a flavor that I can’t describe other than scrumptious!! If you are ever in Little Rock Arkansas it is 10000000% worth a visit! It is a small little kitchen inside the market so it is a hidden gem! ”
“ My wife and I are from out of town and decided to check this place out. Quaint would not begin to describe the atmosphere. Grocery slash dine in place serving hummus (fresh, there is a difference!) to swarhma to gyros. We got hummus and lamb gyros. OMG, the first bite of each was the best we have experienced in our lives. Portions were HUGE for the price. 2 plate of hummus and 6 gyros? Unbelievable. I would have paid DOUBLED for both of them. They were outstanding! Recommended to everyone. ”
“ Wow!! We stopped here on our drive from Chicago to Central Texas and it was worth the extra time on the road! Great selection of Mediterranean groceries and the best Grape Leaves and Shawarma sandwiches (from the cafe inside) we've ever eaten! You should definitely visit this spot. It will not disappoint! ”
