The portions were generous, and I found myself full but unable to stop eating because it was just so delicious. They also have a great selection of beers, which always enhances the experience. When I entered Darya Grill, I wasn't sure what to expect, but the customer service was incredibly warm and welcoming. I've dined at many Mediterranean restaurants, and this one offered much better prices than the others. I can't wait to return and try the Gyro Sandwich! Give it a try—you won't be disappointed!

I ordered the beef and chicken combo. The beef was very good, but the chicken was absolutely amazing. The chicken was tender and juicy. At many other places the meat, especially chicken, are very dry. Give this place a try, and I recommend ordering the beef and chicken combo plate.

I have been ordering/eating-in at this local eatery since they opened, a couple times a month. Anyway, the round kid(male) working there always asks if I want to add a tip on a pick-up--I'm old-fashioned and I don't want to tip anyone when I collect my carry-out order. Anyway, yesterday, the kid in question decided to tip himself without my permission. He rang $1.23 up and asked for my signature--I asked why and he said he needed it as he accidentally rang $1.23 and my signature would void the transaction. He then rang me up for my food purchase. BTW, I dropped $1.00 in change in his jar, and he witnessed it. Well, I went home and looked at my card statement online and discovered the $1.23 was still on the card--it's not about the piddling amount; it's about deception, and I want his mommy and daddy to know I will no longer patronize their restaurant for his willful dishonesty.

Service has always been good and they are always very friendly and polite. You get a lot of food for the price. It's always a great place for something different.
