Chicago Style Gyro

The Chicago gyro comes up in nearly every review, and for good reason: the gyro meat, fresh seasoning, and house sauce make it the anchor of the menu. The Quarter Pound Burger at $7 (add cheese for $0.75) is a legitimate deal. Counter-service spot on Leonard with one or two people running the whole show, and it moves fast.

616 Kabob Stop – Authentic Mediterranean Grill & Burgers in Grand Rapids

★ 4.8(628)· $

The chicken shawarma on warm fresh pita with garlic sauce and pomegranate molasses has pulled at least one reviewer back three times in two weeks. The "Feast for 1-2" plate piles meat over rice with hummus and a side salad, and complimentary mint tea shows up at the end. The menu is clearly marked for vegan and gluten-free options, and the falafel rice bowl gets repeat mentions alongside the burgers.

Sheshco Mediterranean Grill

★ 4.7(2,304)· $$

The Shish Kofta with lentil soup and rice is the move here, and the fresh-baked bread with toum (garlic sauce) gets called out in nearly every review. Portions are large and prices are reasonable. Stuffed grape leaves and Chicken Tawook round out the menu, and the fresh-pressed carrot juice is worth ordering.

Le Kabob

★ 4.4(2,052)· $$

The garlic lime dip has its own fan club, and the portions here are genuinely oversized. Baba ganoush, fatoush feta salad, and puffy pitas round out a menu that delivers a lot for the price. The website takeout ordering comes with a first-time discount.

Gita Pita

★ 4.4(1,189)· $

The chicken shawarma hummus fatta bowl has drawn repeat orders, and the shawarma bowls in general get consistent praise for fresh ingredients and generous portions. Lunch and dinner both run fairly quick at this Jefferson Ave spot. Prices skew slightly higher than you might expect for counter-style Mediterranean.

Parsley Mediterranean Bar & Grill

★ 4.4(795)· $

The curry chicken bowl with rice and garlic sauce is the move at this downtown counter-service spot on Ottawa Ave. Chicken shawarma bowls and wraps draw regulars, and the hummus gets consistent praise for tasting fresh. Soups run $2 as a side add-on. Service is fast, though the tip-screen at the counter rubs some people the wrong way.
