" I can't say enough good things about Peño Mediterranean Grill! This place is a hidden gem. I tend to enjoy Mediterranean food a lot and have eaten at many places, but Peño stood out for its great flavors and generous portions. The lamb kebab was juicy, seasoned to perfection, and the garlic sauce on the side just elevated the entire dish. The atmosphere is vibrant, with supportive staff who are enthusiastic about the food they serve. It's truly a welcoming space that invites you to sit back and enjoy. I'll definitely be coming back more often! Overall rating: 5 Authenticity: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Portion: 5 " (*Curated Review*)

" A total hidden gem! Just visited Peño for the first time and had an amazing experience. I ordered the chicken gyros and a side of baba ghanoush. Both were incredibly delicious, and much better than any Greek fast food I’ve had elsewhere. The staff's attentiveness really made the meal even better. I cannot recommend it enough!

" I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Peño Mediterranean Grill! The moment I walked in, the aroma of freshly prepared Mediterranean food hit me, and I knew I was in for a treat. I ordered the classic gyros, which were generously stuffed and incredibly delicious. Each bite was packed with authentic Mediterranean flavors, making me feel as if I were dining by the sea in Greece. The staff were welcoming and helpful, assisting me in selecting sides that complemented my meal perfectly. I particularly loved the tzatziki sauce, which added a nice tang to the gyros. The portions were more than enough to fill me up, and the prices felt reasonable for the quality. I left feeling satisfied and can't wait to return!

" I ordered a takeout of the Greek salad and the chicken shawarma, and both were great! They tasted fresh and had the perfect seasoning. My only complaint would be the portion size, which could be improved as I felt it was slightly smaller than expected. Nonetheless, everything was delicious, the service was quick, and I appreciate the attention to detail in the food preparation.

" If you're looking for an authentic Mediterranean dining experience, this is the place to be! I recently visited Peño and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. We ordered the falafel platter and the shawarma, both of which were outstanding. The falafel was crispy on the outside and soft inside, drizzled with a tangy tahini sauce that complemented it well. The atmosphere was cozy, perfect for a casual meal with family or friends. However, I noticed that the service could be a bit slow during peak times. Despite this minor setback, the food quality totally makes up for it. I'll definitely come again! Overall rating: 4 Authenticity: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Portion: 4 " (*Curated Review*)

" If a friend asked for a recommendation for Mediterranean food, Peño would be my first choice! The lamb gyro was fantastic, and the portion sizes were excellent for the price. It’s perfect for lunch or dinner any day of the week. The staff are super polite, and the ambiance is lovely. I’ll be coming back with friends for more!
