I got the Texas BBQ burger and it was delicious. Although they are only open until 9pm, it is worth getting out of the house early for. I've been staying at OC every summer and this is by far one of the best places to eat. read less

So this year, (the year of COVID) we were so happy to hear they were open for takeout. The food was as delicious as ever. We ordered through their online order system. The food was ready on-time. When I went in to pay, I felt very safe. They require masks and had a glass between me and the cashier.
When we got back to our place, the food was hot and delicious. I got the lamb & beef gyro. The pita wrap was perfect. Not a drop of sogginess which says how lean their meat is. We can't wait to go back for more! read lessKen Klein7/05/2020Healthy Choices for Breakfast & Lunch We had fresh fruit, eggs and lox & bagels. Everything was freshly prepared and delicious.

Love it here. Everyone can find something. The hummus plate to start is fabulous. It gets busy but worth the wait.

I love everything from the friendly and polite staff, the incredible food,the cleanliness down to the decorations! They serve incredibly delicious and generous food portions. I usually order egg whites bacon and home fries for breakfast and and iced sweet tea. Ive had the beef gyro platter (with fries) and I've had a chicken Cesar salad for lunch many times. Every time I get my food I enjoy it hot and fresh. I have never complained once about a thing. I appreciate the design of the restaurant it makes a very inviting comfortable place to gather and eat. During the holidays they get festive and decorate accordingly. It makes it a fun environment to be in. There is a yiannis cafe location at the ocean city aquatic and fitness center too....where I always order a banana almond milk with peanut butter shake after my workout or a chicken Cesar salad and even here they keep things orderly and fresh. The cooking oil they use is light and delicious you can purchase a bottle or gift it it's a gear Xmas present for people who love to cook and eat clean! Yiannis is a 10/10!!! read less

I got exactly what I was hoping for. At 7 am this place is empty enough that I don't feel guilty sitting and reading for an hour or two while I sip the good coffee and enjoy an omlett. The seating inside and out is great, I appreciate having air conditioning, and the staff are I nredibly friendly.
I went with the grab and Swiss, which was huge, and tasted great. The hash browns are incredible, with the sliced (not shredded) potatoes browned perfectly.
I saw a few people come in to pick up take-out orders as well.
I'll definitely be back. read lessTom L.7/29/2019This is the place to go. Hard working staff, and such an amazing variety of options for Breakfast, Lunch, and... read moreThis is the place to go.
