The food is great but it's a hit or miss with the efficiency of the service. Calling ahead doesn't always give you a head start,... and this morning I called, was told 10 minutes, arrived 15 minutes later, and it then took them another couple of minutes toactually start making my food. I'll also mention that I was the only person in the place. So, A+ for food taste, C- for timelyservice. Read more

Don't get the beef gyro wrap. Poor meat. Wrong bread. Veg. All over the place. Tzatziki was weak. Busy and a bit rude.... Convenient. I'll try something else next time. Read more

Excellent selection of lunch options. Soups and salads ready to go. Hot grilled items, plenty of drinks and snacks options. My... favorite is the falafel wrapped in spinach tortilla. A must! Read more

Ate here for the first time. I ordered the breakfast plate omelette with pork sausage and the deluxe bagel for the wife. My... omelette was too salty. Since I like the ambiance, I decided to stay here and work on some projects with my laptop. A few hourslater the manager told me I can't stay here because I didn't order anything. He said that I have to order something in order tostay. I'm using his electricity and rent is expensive. This is not Starbucks. He also said the employees didn't see me buyanything. So I showed him my receipt that I ordered breakfast. I did buy something. What a terrible experience. Will probablybe my last time eating here. Read more

Fantastic tasting food that is carefully prepared. Everything is great, but my favs are hummus, Mediterranean plate, salads and... nice variety of teas/drinks. Every time I visit 2000 Powell I make sure to eat here and bring food home for later. Read more
