" Wild Thyme Bar & Grill is among the best Mediterranean spots in town! I have tried numerous dishes there, ranging from falafel to kebabs, and everything is consistently delicious. The portions are hearty too. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure a warm dining experience. The atmosphere is casual yet vibrant, perfect for families and friends alike. I cannot recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Wild Thyme with some friends and we had a mixed experience. While the gyro sandwiches were stellar, the hummus was watery and lacked the depth of flavor I expected from a Mediterranean restaurant. Service was a bit slow, but the atmosphere was cozy. We enjoyed the outdoor seating as well. Overall, I think it was a decent visit but I hope the food quality can be more consistent next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a loyal customer for a while and this place never ceases to impress! From falafel to dolmas to the desserts, every dish is prepared with love and great care. The owners make a point to interact with their customers, which is a nice touch. Excellent food and even better service make this place feel like home! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden gem! I randomly stumbled upon it while wandering around and decided to give it a try. I ordered the lentil soup and falafel plate. Wow! The flavors were incredible; you can tell that they use fresh ingredients. The staff was warm and welcoming and even shared stories about their family recipes. Perfect for a cozy dinner or a casual lunch. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love Wild Thyme Bar & Grill! The chicken shawarma was incredibly flavorful, and the portion sizes were more than generous. I visited on a busy night, yet the service remained friendly and attentive. The atmosphere made me feel right at home. Don’t skip on the baklava—it’s the best I’ve ever had! A must-visit for anyone craving Mediterranean cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by how fresh everything tasted! The baba ghanoush was one of the best I've tasted, and the falafels had the perfect crunch. The staff were super friendly and provided great service. The vibe inside is peaceful, making it a nice retreat for a meal. I will definitely return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" It’s hard not to enjoy this restaurant! Each visit brings something new and exciting. The last time I had the lentil soup, which was simply delicious—so hearty and full of flavor. The atmosphere is warm and relaxing, just right for a casual dinner. The staff is friendly and makes you feel welcome. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)
