Middle Eastern Cuisine

This small eatery, located across from the Chatham County Courthouse on Montgomery Street, is a hidden gem. Owner and chef Ali goes out of his way to make diners feel at home. But it's his food that really shines, from the garlicy and delicious hummus to the moist and flavorful pork souvlaki. Other outstanding choices include the baba ganoush, lemon soup, stuffed grape leaves, baked falafel, gyro sandwich and pastitsio. Though the restaurant's ambiance is fairly forgettable and service can be on the slow side (Ali wears a lot of hats, after all), once you start eating, you'll be glad you chose to dine at Middle Eastern Cuisine.
