    I've been going to this location for 20+ years now, dating back to my college days. The service can get a little slow at peak times, but otherwise we always have a great experience with both the service and the food. I highly recommend the Chick in a Sack along with some cheese fries. And I always, always, ALWAYS look forward to treating myself to their sweet tea: it is delicious (not your typical sweet tea, so be expecting something a little different). Outdoor seating is available and it is covered along with fans during the hotter times and warmers during the cooler times.

    Real Mediterranean food, short-order style. Great flavor knowledgeable staff. I had an excellent kafta rolled up tight in a pita so you can eat it while driving. I waited maybe 5 minutes for my order. Open all night, I think.

    I visited here from out of town as it was the only restaurant open in my area after 11pm. The food was so fresh, hot and delicious. I had the turkey melt wrap and fries and my husband had the Philly and cheese fries which was good as well. Minus the Philly being a little salty. The prices were very fair and you get a lot of food for the price. I will definitely be eating here again before I return to Ohio. Thank you all kindly for a great dining experience.

    Decent Middle Eastern cuisine. Table service provided. Service is a little slow compared to others.
