I visited after receiving a coupon at a Halloween event for a free chicken gyro, chips, and a side. The restaurant itself is very clean, bright, and welcoming. Plenty of parking and the inside looks new and well cared for. The restroom was also very clean, though the toilet paper wasn’t on the roller.
When I walked in, there was no greeting, but the woman at the register was helpful when explaining the different side options. My food came out in about 5–10 minutes, so the service was quick.
Unfortunately, the food itself was a major disappointment. When I bit into the gyro, the chicken was rubbery and undercooked. I tried a second bite thinking it might’ve been just one piece, but several pieces had the same texture. When I opened the gyro, almost half the chicken looked undercooked, and the lettuce was wilted. The tomatoes were fresh and the sauce tasted great, but the overall quality wasn’t acceptable especially when it comes to safely cooked meat.
Even though the meal was free for me because of the coupon, I don’t see myself returning. I hadn’t heard of this place before, and I was excited to try it, but being served undercooked chicken is a deal-breaker.

Love the new location! Had the Mediterranean salad with Turkish Meatballs + their delicious tzatziki dip with soft pita. Service was great and fast.

Visit 4: Ended up here again because this was restaurant choice by the other party with me. After waiting 32 minutes for our food, the salad comes out wrong and missing pita. We ordered one Caesar and one Mediterranean but received two Caesar’s. We both discover our salads were soggy with wilted lettuce but at this point we’re just over it. The soup was just broth and chicken, no rice. It was over seasoned like it was the last of what’s left. We eventually received pita but it was burnt and very dark leaving a bitter taste. Lastly, the shift leader had a ton of dandruff all over his shirt and was digging down in his shirt behind the line and the young cashier was picking in his hair.
Visit 3: This time we decided to eat inside hoping for a better experience than our previous to go orders. Got halfway through the meal and realized it was a long brown hair in the salad. The female manager was sweet and quickly replaced the meal but appetite was ruined.
Visit 2: Decided to give another try since they really had just opened. Ordered a gyro, got all the way home and bit into raw chicken. Called the store to inform them before they serve more people raw chicken and the manager apologized and offered to comp the meal, however was never received. This was a scary experience.
Visit 1: Ordered a Salmon feast and family meal to go. Got home and the salmon was charred solid black on the bottom and inedible. The feast came with less than half a pan of rice that was crispy in places, pretty much old rice. Sauce all over the container and only about 1/3 full and a salad that had more croutons and cheese than lettuce. We barely had enough to feed the family.
Overall: We love Taziki’s but totally disgusted with this location.

This was my first time ordering from this specific Taziki’s location, and it will definitely be my last. I got a kids chicken feast and a soup-and-salad combo, and everything was completely unacceptable. The soup tasted off and was cold. The salad was warm, like it had been sitting out forever.
The kids meal was even worse — the chicken was undercooked and cold, which is insane considering it’s for a child. That alone is a major safety issue. The rice was cold, the soft pita was cold, and even the cucumber and tomato salad was warm, basically room temperature.
I will never order from here again. This place needs serious attention from management because serving food like this is dangerous and absolutely unacceptable.

I ordered with Robert at approximately 3:05. There were no more than 4-5 other customers at that time. I ordered my food to go, gave my name and sat down. I observed others who ordered after me have there orders picked up. At 3:25 I went to Robert and he had a nonchalant response and looked at a female, who went over to the counter and picked up my order. When I tried to complain about it I was basically ignored. The food was very good but the service was very bad !!!!!!

I went out the other day after a long day at work and stopped by Taziki’s at this location for dinner. It was my first time at this location, and since it recently opened, I wanted to surprise my family with food from here. I was very disappointed to find that falafel was not available.
Falafel is a basic protein option for vegetarian customers, and without it the menu felt very limited. It made me feel like vegetarian customers were not really considered when planning the menu at this location. This feels like a missed opportunity and a poor business choice for a Mediterranean restaurant.
Update: I didn’t say falafel wasn’t available during my visit. I was told it is not offered at this location at all. That distinction matters. Asking me to reach out via email is not accountability. I already provided this feedback through the proper channel. Redirecting me elsewhere without addressing the issue is a lame response.

Again, this is indeed the best prepared asparagus and salmon…fresh taste and seasoned to perfection! Very welcoming environment! The manager was very engaging, professional, and friendly. Special shoutout to the management team Cintia and Robert! Excellent leadership skills noted….definitely goes the extra mile!!! 10/10

I visited the new location at a Knox Square. I had placed an order online and it was ready when I walked in to pick it up. The atmosphere was very nice and the employee who helped me with my order was very nice even though our exchange was brief.

The staff was terrific! We had to change our order from dining in to takeout at the last minute, after we ordered. Then we added another meal to go, and they were already at the same time extremely quickly thanks to our friends at Taziki‘s at Knox Square! We are so happy you are here!

What a great new place! So glad it is here. We have dined in and taken out in both experiences were great. The management is a great job and they have trained their staff well to be friendly, courteous, and expeditious. Highly highly recommend!
