These guys are awesome. If anything is wrong with your order- they give you free lentil soup. On the house. I personally recommend the Oasis Gyro combo. Very filling and flavorful

Wow! It might not look impressive from the outside, but the food is incredible! The owner and his wife were very respectful and friendly, and were very attentive to our needs. The food was absolutely amazing; their lamb gyro was the best I've ever had! Overall an excellent experience and a great restaurant for a family.

Very pleasant surprise. Finally stopped in after driving by so many times. My son and I were greeted at the door very friendly and seated right away. We were both in the mood for a gyro so we each ordered one with a side of freshly made fries. Before they came out they brought us over each a small bowl of lentil cream soup that was very tasty. Along with our gyros we also ordered a side of falafel. Not exactly sure what they were, but I believe they were chick peas grounded up with some herbs and spices and rolled up and fried. Served with a side of tasziki sauce. The gyros were very flavorful and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to give them a try.

Drove by at 6:30 on a Sat night and the place looks shuttered. Big banner that says "open now "but the place is completely dark. What a shame! I was really craving some Shawarma.

The food is very good. The accuracy on your orders may be questionable. There's a very large language barrier between customers and the waitress and the waitress and owners. Our orders were about 75% correct. I will give credit because the waitress said she is new and they have her cooking, waiting tables, and checking people out. Hopefully the service improves but definitely a 10/10 on the taste of the food and herbal tea! Must try her lentil soup and hibiscus tea!

The food is always excellent and the staff are super friendly. The pricing is great for the amount of food you get. Best gyros in town!

This place is amazing, they have fantastic service. The owner and his mother were so friendly and accommodating. The food was even better, if you’re wanting some authentic Mediterranean food, this place is the spot to check out!

Was in Lynchburg for the day and someone recommended this place. The reviews were good and the menu looked awesome. We placed a takeout order on the website and were given a pickup time. When we got there (a little after 1), the restaurant was closed. Called them. Nobody picked up and their voicemail was full.

If I could leave a 0 star I would. When we first walked in there was no one to greet us or even let us know that they were having eat-in patrons. The owner or manager seemed nice, and the gentleman to first took our order was nice but then disappeared. We ordered the mixed grill and lamb kabobs and we asked for extra vegetables and salads. Never got our salads, was given lentil soup instead; had to flag someone down to get refills on our water; and the lamb, beef, and chicken were overdone, dry, and the basmati rice had no taste. The service was not great. We asked for garlic sauce and if you know anything about middle eastern or Mediterranean Greek sauce, it’s definitely not ketchup based!However, it appeared they were quite busy with takeout orders, but the dining room was not busy. Maybe they were training new staff as it appeared there were quite a few people in the kitchen.

A classic hole-in-the-wall scenario. The place doesn't have an eye catching look or over the top décor, but it is a great place to eat. The food was delicious and the staff is some of the most polite I've encountered. There was a young, black man there on our first visit to eat inside the restaurant. He was the the only staff there for half the visit but he was very nice, humble, and courteous. Come for the food and stay for the experience.

First time and won't be the last time. Had the Greek salad, Chicken Kabob, Lamb Gyro, and a side salad. All were excellent! Don't let the outside fool you, the good is excellent and the staff are very friendly.

I hope there isn't a limit on how many words you can leave on a review, cause I've got alot to say about this place. For one, they are only getting 5 stars, because I can't give them 10. The food was AMAZING, my husband said it tastes better than the food he's had in Greece.The young men staffing the place are courteous and super friendly.It's very clean and they have a bell on every table for you ring if you need something. (Very nice touch)Wonderful, WONDERFUL place to grab lunch. It'll be a regular place for us for sure!

I'm conflicted about the rating so please read the review as well! The food here was AMAZING! However as many reviews said the speed of service is extremely slow. This is mostly because 1. They don't have enough staffing and 2. Once they receive your order, they make the food fresh from stretch. Nothing is prepared beforehand and frozen. So If you are willing to patiently wait and tasty, fresh food is your priority than this place is worth going to.

Good food! Back when I went here they had better french fries but after revisiting recently, they changed the fries and I was sad. The only thing that perturbs me here is how long the food takes to come out. It takes an ABSURD amount of time for a sandwich place or Mediterranean grill. Prepare to wait almost 40 minutes for your food from start to finish. Other than that, perfectly fine place to go eat!

The service was slow....extremely slow. There was one table with two people when I arrived and no one came for pick up the whole time I was there. I ordered the lamb Schwarma with fries and it took nearly 30 minutes.The schwarma was burned one one side and the meat was over cooked. The fries where good.Not the cleanest place. The bathrooms where dirty and the salt shaker had so much salted caked on the inside it was useless. All the salt on the plate in the picture was what was sitting in the cap.Also, the roof was leaking from the heavy rain but not wet fllor signs and one soaked dish cloth sitting in the middle of the puddle.
