Wonderful Mediterranean restaurant! How are we just finding out about this?! I was searching for Greek food since I love Gyros and found this place. We went today and it is amazing! I ordered a Gyro and my husband got the buffet which looked amazing. The food was excellent, the service friendly, and the atmosphere nice. They have plenty of seating so bring a large crowd! They have dessert too so we bought rice pudding and baklava too take home!

I don’t live in the area, but I make it a point to visit this restaurant whenever I am visiting. This place has the most delicious hummus, Mediterranean salad, and shawarma around. The Amo tea is also necessary to experience. There is a buffet available (it looks good!), but I prefer to order my dishes fresh off the menu. The staff are attentive and polite, and the seating is comfortable.

I had an extremely disappointing experience at this restaurant. I ordered a salad and was shocked to find the lettuce wilted, dirty, and even moldy clearly unwashed and unfit to eat. I had orders before but this time makes me never gonna order again.
It honestly surprised me that something like this could be served to a paying customer. No one human or animal should be served food in such a condition.
Cleanliness and hygiene should be a minimum standard, and if that can’t be maintained, then the restaurant seriously needs to rethink its operations or consider shutting down before someone takes legal action for a food safety violation.
I never leave harsh reviews, but this experience was unacceptable. I hope the management takes this seriously.

A very enjoyable, quiet, moderately size Mediterranean restaurant. The evening we were there, they had a buffet. One steam table with some typical dishes with two soups. The other table is for salad and dessert. You also can order from the menu and get take out. The servers are attentive and polite.

Don’t let the strip mall location fool you, this food is AMAZING!

This is as authentic Middle Eastern fare as you can get. Like, the last time I had food like this was in the Middle East. So good!

I have now been there 3 times, and each time, the food is excellent. I’ve even brought former Amish/Mennonite folks to expand their horizons and they were blown impressed.

I highly recommend the kebabs and wraps as intros, and definitely get both the hummus and baba ganoush. Both are phenomenal.

And absolutely get both the baklava and the lady fingers. YUM!

Service has been attentive and helpful for folks new to this cuisine.

Atmosphere is meh, but don’t let that stop you. You are here for great food, and they deliver!

The Eggplant and Potato wrap was delicious, and paired beautifully with the Basamati Rice and Lebanese salad & tea. ️
The service was very pleasant and I definitely recommend. ✨

I could easily become a vegetarian if I knew how to cook as well as they do here, though they offer great meat dishes as well. Some of the best authentic Mediterranean food you can eat in West Michigan. The owner is a very nice gentleman, back when they still had the grocery store he offered me and my family tea for free because we were chatting about which ingredients to purchase for Armenian cuisine specifically. I miss the grocery store but I LOVE the new buffet! You have to go!!! The cauliflower is my favorite.

I went there a couple of weeks ago right before the holidays and got the buffet. I was immediately impressed. The buffet was well stocked clean and hot. The service was excellent. The place wasn’t crowded so I was surprised that everything seemed fresh and tasted great. I didn’t get a chance to taste everything but I will be going back.
