I have been coming here for a year now and must say they have one of the best falafel wraps in Salem.
They do also have burgers, fries and sandwiches.

great food and the owner is a nice guy. It’s a little crowded by all the convenient store type merchandise. Sometimes I wish it was just a restaurant and deli with places to sit. Also the oil in the fryers should be changed more often. The smell fills the lobby of the bus station and burns my eyes. ive had to stay away for a few weeks because of this.

It’s been a while since I posted my original (2 star) review. And what a difference time has made!
Ive discovered that the owners are very approachable & do all they can to make your visit a positive one.
They have improved handicapped access, expanded their hot food choices, lowered prices where possible and genuinely desire your experience there is a positive one.
I’m thankful for their introducing me to flavors and products I would have never thought to try.
While the price of some of their items still reflect a convenience premium; they are competitive with all other downtown stores. Yet in spite of this, great values abound everywhere.
I would have given them five stars, but I’m saving that for when they offer jambalaya again!
That are worth taking the time to explore. I think you’ll be suprised at the values, and friendliness, that you will find.

I really enjoy this place. Convenient in so many ways.
The food is pretty good. Actually, it’s silly, one of my favorite things is their onion rings. They are crispy and tender and combined with their ranch, actually quite pleasant to indulge in.
The gyro sandwich is very good. Reminds me of being in Europe or the middle east. It’s not fancy, but has that great food cart quality.
They have a variety of on the go items typically found in a gas station. Their JoJos are great. Not to mention the collocation with their Convenient store.
Great family owned operation.

A middle Eastern food deli in a cheezy convenience store in downtown Salem transit mall, in Oregon.
Average, friendly service.
Ordered a lamb gyro with (extra sauce and (NO PICKLES). The Gyro had generous meat . . but the meat was very dried out and I (didn’t) get extra sauce, only a couple tiny tomato bits, no cucumber chips and there was still pickles in it! Dryish gyro, overall.
Compared to all the other choices for gyros . . a lame experience . . but must say . . not over priced at least. They were reasonable.

Excellent restaurant. Burgers, Falafel, and Hummus were amazing. The kids loved the food. We ate on the tables they had outside. The kids loved watching the birds while eating. Now they want to go every week. The family owned the resturant were very friendly. I will be back. Next time I will take pictures before eating the food 🙂

Location in downtown Cherriots bus station…so always a little busy. Cashier person polite and speedy. Bar stool seating along window counter was a bit cramped. The counter needed more frequent wiping between customers, though my spot was clean.
Had good chicken strips here a month ago. Wanted to try actual Lebanese shawarma (which I enjoyed at a Lebanese place in Portland before). They were out of an ingredient, so I tried lamb gyro instead. Glad I did! Tasted great. Love Greek gyros, but this Lebanese version is now my new favorite. Think they use a different bread and different sauce. I’ll definitely be back here again.

Favorite Mediterranean food in salem/keizer area, hands down! I used to go all the time and all their meats were so flavorful and perfectly cooked! I havent been in forever and STILL crave their food often! Best hummus also, I used to go sometimes to just buy a little plate w pita bread. The owner is so kind, he was there frequently and was always very inviting and quick. I wish they had another location since the bus stop spot isnt so appealing when theres tons of people standing outside being rowdy lol, but no biggy. They turned it into more of a market which makes it seem not so restaurant-like, but the food is top-notch!

Good place to get quick snacks and treats. Offering friend chicken and side items including chicken strips etc.. The owner has the place KOSHER FRIENDLY which is something important to me. He will not sell any pork whatsoever or anything with pork bi product.

This is one extra ordinary experience ..Google the best falafel nearby and this is what map suggested us. In one humble place here in Court St Salem lies this extra ordinary falafel. What made this even more special other than the taste is the story behind it Abdullah the owner is one of the friendliest man we have ever met. The recipe according to him is from a very special and good friend . The friendship is so special the falafel is so tasty crunchy juicy inside and the owner is just unimaginably kind. Great service great food. What else can you ask for. Oh on top of that , we had a great dinner for 2 for $9.99 how cool is that? Definitely coming back .
