Great mujadara, gyro, and chicken schwarma. The hummus was creamy. Solid tzatziki Prices are reasonable. The staff was very nice. I wish the inside had a bit more decor or... anything. Just tables and chairs and bare walls. Would come again, often, if I lived in town.

Awesome food! Really delicious food with a lot of possibilities. The plates are large portions, pitas a bit smaller. A little on the pricy side.

I went here based on the menu and the reviews. The menu button on Google links to an entirely different restaurant (Sinbad's), which their menu looks delicious. Yours is VERY basic - but that's fine if it were good. I have NO idea how you get the best reviews of any restaurant in Birmingham? 4.8, almost 600 reviews? What am I missing? (Paid Reviews?) Got a Gyro Plate - Very skimpy portion (but for the price it was "ok").... meat was SO dry, rice was dry. How puts a cup of pickles on top of a Gyro plate? Hummus was very good. 2 half pieces of pita (small pita). This was just pretty sad and I'd try it again to see what I'm missing to all the great reviews, but it was so disappointing not sure I could and drop another $30 on this!?

The best pitas in Birmingham. Quick easy great food great service. Nice spot on the corner bc there’s usually street parking on 4th. Seriously I logged into google and all that only to leave this 5 star review, it’s that good.

This is a no frills place that serves good and well portioned food at reasonable prices. I have had the beef, gyro and falafel and they are all very good. It’s certainly between a four and five star and I feel a four is too low for the value it serves. The food is fresh and seems to be authentic to its origin. I will say the baklava may not be worth the price but certainly wasn’t bad.

We split the chicken shawarma and grape leaves (2 adults). I mean look at all those colors! This place is so yummy and quick. A definite spot to hit if your looking for delicious food! Seating outside and inside and food holds well if you take it to go. 10/10
