| - If there was a way to give this place zero stars, I definitely would. Any place where the first impression is that the floor looks mighty dirty does not sound promising at all.
We walked in at 7.15 on a Saturday night and there was no line at the counter. The place had 4-5 tables that were occupied inside and another 2-3 occupied outside. The rest of the 10 or so tables inside had dirty dishes and/or crumbs and leftovers piled on them. In addition, the floor was a complete mess. One of the wait staff offered to clean a booth for us when she heard me comment to my husband that there was no clean table to sit at. I had to call her back to clean the floor at the booth which was littered with straws, olives, paper napkins and crumbs. Definitely not a good start at all.
We went to order the food and they told us that they were all out of the pilaf - at 7.15 on a Saturday night!!! We ordered chicken kabobs with roasted veggies and seasonal fruit as well as a Greek salad. Since I signed up for their email updates, we were entitled to receive a free order of hummus and pita chips. We showed the email for the free appetizer to the cashier who said he will ring it up as free and then somehow forgot to do it! We noticed that we were charged for it and he had to go back and void that. Sigh! But hey, we were still positive as mistakes can happen anywhere.
By the time our food arrived, we had been in the place 15 minutes or so and none of the wait staff seemed inclined to clear the dirty vacated tables or clean the filthy floor!
When our food arrived, I had to take it right back to the counter as the kabobs and the veggies were cold. Like they had been sitting out for a long long time. The kabob skewers were replaced by ones that were lukewarm instead of cold and the veggies from the old plate were just dumped back into the new plate along with the kabobs. By then, I had lost patience with the whole establishment and decided not to take them back a second time. The kabobs were not juicy and were bland and tasteless - very meagerly seasoned. However, the veggies in the salad were fresh and crunchy. And their house Greek dressing is excellent.
Needless to say, we will not be returning to this place anytime soon. We are big fans of Mediterranean food and have eaten at Zoe's Kitchen at Ballantyne and Southpark. Both locations are excellent and have great food and service. This place is a shame to the franchise of an excellent restaurant chain.
You can see in the photos I have uploaded how dirty the floor is. This is well after the tables have been vacated. I wish that there was also a way to portray how unappetizing the food was in the photos.
Also, they have free wi-fi, but it is an absolute joke! Do not bother to connect to their network. You will grow old trying to just download text (not even graphics)!
