I stopped in to pick-up lunch for me and 2 other co-workers. All three orders were made correctly and everyone enjoyed their meal. I thought the price was a good value for the top quality and great taste. New menu item that looked good but didn't try was deep fried Cauliflower (spicy)

I actually tried the New Perrysburg location of this restaurant, but it's not listed on trip advisor. It was phenomenal. We are new to the area, and we are realizing there are a ton of Mediterranean restaurants here. This place is our favorite so far. We got an original gyro, mixed (beef & chicken) gyro, Greek salad, side rice and rice pudding to go. It was a total of $25, which I thought was a great deal and then I tasted it and realized it was an amazing deal. The quality far exceeds the cheap prices. The gyro was so big, it filled my husband and lasted me 2 meals. The pita was thick and had a slight crispy outside. The meat was tender and flavorful. The rice was a little on the salty side but I loved it. The small Greek salad was huge and had tons of fresh veggies and feta cheese. They did not cheat us on the toppings, which I appreciated. Finally, the rice pudding was fresh and tasty--has to be super fattening because nothing that good is healthy. It was $2 or $3 and I wish I got 2 of them because it was so good. We tried to call to get take out but no one answered, so we used the online grub hub option. We are coming from a Virginia college town that offers 20+ grub hub options, so it's nice to see this restaurant is open to it. No one else in Perrysburg is. You can have it delivered as well. We will definitely be back.

We started with the stuffed grape leaves.....wow. They were tender and nicely seasoned. Main course was beef with onions and mushrooms, and we also had a pepper-infused dish with beef. It was all delicious. Don't let the exterior of this place fool you---yes it is in a former Wendy's---but the food here is spectacular.

I ordered two take-out dinners, chicken tawook and chicken gyro, both qood quality. Their prices are a little over the average, but I believe you get good quality for what you pay here. My order was take-out, but I got a good feeling about the atmosphere if I were to dine in. I usually evaluate a Middle Eastern restaurant by the quality of their chicken tawook and not everybody can do it right. It's either underdone or burnt outside (and rare inside) or not tender enough or too much seasoning. Chicken tawook here was broiled the right way (inside and out) and had moderate seasoning. My 3 year old daughter is a tougher judge than me. :) She refuses to eat poorly done chicken. She was munching on chicken gyro pieces happily. :) Another thing I really liked was their hummus (that came as a side for dinner). In a lot of places, hummus has some bitter aftertaste or too salty or too sour. Hummus at this place was seasoned moderately, not too salty, not too much garlic, not too sour and not bitter aftertaste.

We took time to locate the place with GPS but were glad we went there. Very welcoming staff, great food with lots to pack and take away. Large servings with complimentary khubus. The area was sort of closed on a Friday evening.

Four of us had a wonderful meal prepared with care by this Lebanese restaurant in Toledo. I got a family order of the chicken and Kafta skewers, which was sufficient for all of us with some to spare. It includes rice and/or fries, hummus, and pita bread. It was delicious.Thank you for the positive review and feedback. We appreciate it!
