“ We live about an hour outside Syracuse and try to visit this place when we drive into town. The chicken shawarma wrap is excellent and the garlic sauce they put on it cannot be beat. We also like the chicken shawarma plate. Sooo much food and delicious. They have many different variations of the sandwiches, so make sure you ask questions if you get confused. For instance you can get the shawarma “cold” basically the meat is cooked but the outside bread wrap is not. Or you can get the wrap heated up (like a panini) where the bread is grilled. Definition worth the visit. Only problem can be parking downtown. ”
“ I went a week ago for the first time and my oh my was this food so delicious! Their baklava is the very best that I have ever had! And the food that I ordered was absolutely delicious! Everything was so fresh and the lamb gyro was perfection! I certainly will be going there again! ”
“ Maybe it’s because I was on an airplane all day, but this was one of the best gyro salads I have had in a while. There was a generous portion of meat, and the flavor was great! ”
“ Gyro lamb plate is amazing. Good crispy juicy chicken wings. I want to try everything in the menu! Had falafel 2 times, I think they’re not consistent with how long to cook the falafel, 1st time it was on the crispier side(still very delicious) and the 2nd time perfectly not too crispy and moist inside. ”
