  I have enjoyed my experience here multiple times. The chicken tastes great and the pita sandwich portions are generous.
  The service is friendly and fast. the sauce selections can be confusing but I tend to just stay traditional.
  The baklava and Delmas are enjoyable.
  
  It's a fast food restaurant that serves what seems to be something healthier than the standard options.

  If there is something I have been eating lately is defined Mediterranean food. Every day I pick a new place and try it. See my reviews.
  
  The food gets a 3 at best. The cucumber sauce was sizzling (expired) the salad was fresh but had no taste, (cheap ingredients). The meat was good, humus was good, the pickled option were out of the jar, nothing special.
  
  Overall I think this place is ok for fast lunch but definitely does not get a good rating for good Mediterranean food.

  My friends and I are picking up food; some wanted Oke Poke, but I opted for DonerG. It's casual dining and Chipotle-style where servers scoop ingredients into your bowl or pita for you.
  
  I didn't want a heavy lunch, so I got a kid's salad with half chicken and half beef for $6.99. It came with very minimal salad, hummus, and pita. There were actually a lot of meat so I figured I got my money's worth.
  
  The salad was very standard and seasoned with salt and olive oil only. Hummus was on the watery side and did not have that creamy, smooth, and thick consistency as other more legit places. It wasn't bad. Both meat and chicken were extremely dry and overcooked, but still tasted somewhat decent.
  
  Overall, food was very mediocre. Glad I got the kid's plate and not a full size entree.

  Shared an istanbowl and turkish street fries.
  
  I do love a place that are very generous in their servings because I expected us to finish this meal easily.
  
  Istanbowl as described in the menu includes rice, beef and chicken doner kebab, red cabbage, onions, parsley, sheppard salad, falafel and pita bread. That's a lot of ingredients! Very delicious meal and the salad made us feel a little healthy too heh.
  
  Turkish street fries was piled high and very delicious. One thing I wish I knew was that the sauce was a little too much, tasted like thousand island sauce and it was covering the fries. Good but I'm the type of person to dip my foods into sauce, not have the sauce soak the food. Enjoy

  Great place with friendly, knowledgeable staff. We have been explained the menu and got little samplers too before we made a decision. Food was delicious and that chilli sauce, super yummy! I'd definitely go back again!
