Wow! This place is phenomenal ???? portions are large and the quality is outstanding. Falafel are crispy and herby and fresh. I... tried the baba ghanouj and the gyro salad as well and highly recommend both. Read more

Always so good! I got the falafel salad, my husband got a gyro sandwich, my son got chicken & rice, and we got a side of... falafels. Read more
Absolutely delicious. Kinda on the pricey side but soo tasty. Gyro is tender and perfectly seasoned. Plant based sandwich was... also delicious. The plant based sandwich is hardy, and very "meat-like". The french fries were cooked perfectly, verycrispy/slightly crunchy, with a flavor coating of some sort of spice. Read more
I've wanted to eat at this restaurant for some time and finally made it there. Coming from Chicago I really miss ethnic food and... Yassin's didn't disappoint. I got a gyros that brought me back to going to Greek town in Chicago. The pita was very good. Thegyro meat was exceptional and full of flavor. The tiziki sauce was a little more powerful than I'm used to but wasn't a dealbreaker. It's location in downtown Knoxville is a little challenging. We could only buy a half hour on the meter and had to feedit twice to eat. There is a pay lot across the street as well. The staff was nice and service was good. It's an eccentric littlespot that lifted my spirit and desire for city life. I'll be going back for falafel and chicken shawarma. I reccomend thisplace. Everyone should step outside the box and experience another culture in some little way like food. Read more
I?m quite impressed with the quality of food that comes from this restaurant. It?s pretty good for the food it has. The gyro... plate is really good. Tasty lamb and a very oily yet flavorful rice. And while the online description says it comes with babaganoush, it does not. Luckily I had that as a separate item. The falafel is surprisingly moist, however the hummus that comeswith it isn?t my favorite. Their tzatziki is excellent. And the baklava, it?s delicious. Probably not made in the restaurant,but still good nonetheless. Read more
This was an awesome place to dine. The owner or manager and staff were all delightful young ladies. They were helpful answering... a few of our questions about the area. The food was also excellent and well prepared. If ever in Knoxville and in search ofGreek/Lebanese/Middle Eastern fare this is the place to be. I had the Spicy Chicken Shawarma plate and Baklava for dessert.Yummy in my tummy. Read more
When they say this place is nice, they?re not talking about the knives and plates. The staff is incredibly polite and welcoming.... The falafel is amazing, light, crispy, flavorful. The house hot sauce is one part Tennessee, one part harissa, and it ishonestly one of the best house made hot sauces I?ve had. They came out and gave us free baclava on our 13 dollar tab. Stop in,support these people. And be nice back to them, or I?ma find you. ;) Read more
