| - Lots of Mediterranean places have popped up in this space: Opa, Plaka, and now Maza. New ownership, interior has had a face lift, cool bar area but no alcohol available yet. Menu mentions $7 lunch specials but I did not see any advertised.
Ordered the chicken shwarma sandwich with rice, $10- hostess/server gave me a heads up that the dish "isn't really a shwarma, it's made in a pan". Decided to give it a try anyway, and the meat and seasonings are okay but it was served, inexplicably, in a giant hoagie bun. When I am at a Mediterranean restaurant, I expect a sandwich to come on pita or lavash, this bun was way too much bread!
The meat was of okay quality but sandwich was not served with any sort of sauce, just peppers, onions, and tomato, which gave the dish almost a fajita feel.
Option of rice or fries for my side, picked the rice, which was warm and soft, but after eating the sandwich breading, I couldn't take any more carbs.
Note that they have discount deals up on Yelp and Groupon, and a Yelp check in offer for a free piece of baklava, which was honored even for my take-out order.
