" I found Makarios through a friend’s suggestion and decided to pay a visit last Friday night. It was busy, but the staff managed to handle the crowd well. I ordered their lamb chops, and they were phenomenal! Tender and juicy! Served with a side of garlic almond rice, it was a perfect meal. Although the wait time for a table was longer than expected, every bite was worth it. Looking forward to my next meal here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Makarios Kabobs & Grill! The lamb shawarma was out of this world—full of rich flavors and tender. I also tried their house-made hummus, which was creamy and delightful with fresh pita bread. The interior decor is eclectic, giving it a unique vibe. While the menu had a ton of options, I think my new favorite is the garlic almond rice. Service was pretty good—it felt like they really care about the customer experience here. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friend and I decided to try Makarios for lunch one day, and it was a fantastic choice! We shared the Sampler Platter and were amazed by the variety. Everything from the baba ganoush to the grilled meats was exceptionally flavorful. The ambiance is cozy, making it a great spot for catching up with friends. Our server was friendly, too, which enhanced our experience. I look forward to returning with my family soon! " (*Curated Review*)
