Baghdad Restaurant Salt City Market — Restaurant in City of Syracuse

Sooo, I was very excited to order a taste of their food. However, things went downhill for me before I left the restaurant. I asked a question about their lamb meat compared to goat meat. The chef, was very nonchalant and basically said that they are different(ya think)!.. The subject was then dismissed. They definitely need better customer service... Anyhu, I ordered a lamb gyro and left with their greasy bag... Now this was my experience things could be different for others. To be fair, I only eat chicken, turkey, or fish...

This was a very generous potion and fed 2 hungry people. The prices were very reasonable. I would absolutely recommend...

Mediterranean food is one of my favorite of all time & I went here with great excitement & expectations only to be extremely disappointed. The young lady at the order taker didn’t seem to be there. Back of the house didn’t seem to be organized as too many people were moving positions. My food was just put a side without calling it out by number. I had to inquire about it to receive it like a few other waiting customers. Upon arrival home, I realized my food was missing half of the portion. I ordered mixed shawarma but received only beef & some lambs, soggy fries, only one slice of tomato, half portion of the pita bread & some lettuce. It’s sad to say that I paid $13.49 for a bag full of...
