Mediterranean cuisine — Restaurant in Milwaukee

Response to Legal Threat Regarding My Honest Review -Amir, 6PM orderJuly 15th.

I’m a flexible and reasonable person — and in most cases, a simple, respectful reply and apology would have been enough to resolve this. But instead, I received a defensive and dishonest response filled with false accusations and legal threats. Let me be clear: I’m well aware of my rights as a customer and will not be intimidated by this kind of behavior.

I had no intention of leaving a second 1-star review. But the owner’s aggressive attitude left me no choice. Instead of addressing my concerns professionally, they chose to attack my character. So here are the facts, backed with evidence:

Lie #1: “There is no $60 meal.” I dined alone. My total came to $54 after tip, and I shared a screenshot of the receipt. The only reason it wasn’t higher was because Uber refunded me for the missing drink. Without that refund, it would have been close to $60. So yes, for one person, the cost was accurate.

Lie #2: “They called me multiple times and I never called them.” That’s completely false. I called them multiple times, and no one answered. Eventually, the call was rejected and sent to voicemail. I’ve shared a screenshot of my call log proving this(Outgoing). They never initiated any contact — it was me who tried to reach out and they never called me!

Lie #3: “I spoke Spanish.” I do not speak Spanish. I am not Latino. English is my second language and I speak it fluently. Their claim shows they confused me with another customer — which shows the chaos with other customers at the exact same time.

Lie #4: “My friends left reviews.” I was in Milwaukee alone, and no friends or colleagues ordered from this place. I left my review based solely on my own personal experience. The accusation that multiple people left reviews on my behalf is completely false.

Lie #5: “We cannot remove reviews.” As a business owner myself, I know that’s simply not true. Platforms like Google, Yelp, and others allow businesses to report or dispute reviews they believe are inaccurate or false. Claiming they have no way to address reviews is misleading.

My review reflected an honest, disappointing experience. Rather than listening and trying to resolve the issue, the business chose to attack, deflect, and threaten legal action. That speaks volumes about their customer service approach.

I stand by everything I wrote — and I’ve provided clear evidence to support it. Trying to silence customers with threats only reinforces the kind of experience I had.

That said, to de-escalate the situation, I will remove my second review in a week. My original review still stands and accurately reflects...

First time here. We were downtown for the theatre and this is just a block from the St. Kate Hotel. Super convenient if you have other plans in the area.

The restaurant is relatively new. We made reservations for 6:00pm. When we got there we realized that you order and pay at the counter. Then the food gets brought to you. They did have several table that were reserved, and we got our choice, so we picked one closer to the back of the space.

The full menu is online, or displayed behind the counter. There was a short line, but it went quickly. We ordered the special Lamb Chops and the Pita plate. With this setup you might get the impression that it will go quickly, but it doesn't (which is not a bad thing). In the meantime they bring you drinks to the table.

As we were waiting for our foods, we noticed all the other orders going out to other tables. They all looked and smelled amazing. When ours came we were equally impressed. The Lamb Chops were as ordered, medium rare. The flavors were good, without being overpowering. The Greek Fries (skin on fries with fetat and a dipping sauce) were so yummy, it was hard to stop eating them all in one sitting. The Pita Plate was warm, flavorful, with large portions. We enjoyed everything, and there was plenty to take home for another day.

We did have a little room left for some baklava. They offer two varieties, pistachio and walnut. Would have preferred pistachio but they were out. The walnut was good (not great).

After the food came, that was the last we saw of our server. Not sure if they simply don't check back, or they were too busy. We q quick "how's your food, everything okay?", would have been appreciated. Besides, did a really need a refill on the iced tea?

Nice spot for excellent Greek classics, served fast...

I’m genuinely puzzled by all the positive reviews. Our recent dine-in experience was far from impressive. From the moment we placed our order, things went downhill. The staff member taking our order seemed completely uninformed about the menu. When we asked what came with the combo plate, she had to check if hummus or salad was included and could only say, “I think there’s rice.” It’s a major issue when the employees don’t even know the basics of the menu.

We were a party of four, and the first plate arrived a full five minutes before the rest. It’s basic dining etiquette to serve all meals together so the group can eat at the same time. Instead, one of us had to wait while the food got cold.

The food itself was the biggest letdown. The rice and all three types of meat were bland, completely lacking in seasoning. The steak, in particular, was so tough and chewy I couldn’t even finish one piece. Ironically, the only highlight of the meal was the side salad.

If you’re looking for good Mediterranean food, I’d suggest looking elsewhere. Milwaukee has plenty of other spots with far better options. Sadly, I won’t...
