My husband and I had been running non stop yesterday since 6:45 am and this was our first opportunity for down town for the day! There were no other customers in line and we walked up to counter where the employee was and he did not even look up once or acknowledge us for several minutes. The girl that was working the counter did not even speak either until it was her turn to prepare our food and at the end of the order, all of our food was placed in a to go bag although we were going to eat there and ensure we left before their closing time (9:00 pm - we arrived at 8:15). I am pretty sure there was not one smile and there were definitely no pleasantries extended by any of the employees. I have only been to this location once before but we will never go back. Managers should inform employees that they are in a CUSTOMER SERVICE role and should try to look as if they are slightly happy to be working for...
Read moreBuild-your-own approach to greek food. I've been here dozens of times now and it is always excellent. I recommend ignoring the menu and just getting a bowl with everything you want--price is just based on the protein you choose. Just point out what looks good.

I'm not even sure if that combo is on the menu, but it's only about $12 for a large amount of super tasty, super nutritious, super filling food. Definitely the best quick dining place I've...
Read moreKairos Mediterranean in Greenville is my favorite fast-casual spot for this sort of cuisine. Consistently fresh and delicious, friendly service, and those juices… 🥰 Their watermelon juice was especially refreshing on a scorching hot day like today.
You can find build-your-own pitas, bowls, salads, and platters with a variety of proteins, spreads, and toppings to choose from. If you have a hard time making such decisions (me 🙋♀️), you can order from their awesome Craveable Faves menu.
Their Recovery Bowl is my go-to, which is what you see here. It has chicken and meatballs served over lentils and brown rice with tzatziki, hummus, red pepper feta, grilled red peppers, chickpea salad, and feta cheese. Lots of food…it was totally a flavorful delight to my tastebuds without feeling like I needed to take a nap afterwards.
We need a spot like this in...
