Reviews for Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe - Southland Drive in Lexington, KY

The entire meal I had was bland and this was my first time trying baklava. It taste like stale crackers with maple syrup on... them. I was about to just toss the idea of ever trying it again. But I will have to try it elsewhere since people said it?sgood. This one was a fail though. Maybe someone will like it though, I just can?t do it. God bless. Read more

I love their specials. The food is clean. Salads are better than say Paneras so yeah above average. Good fresh vegetables. The... chicken and pork are also clean and not processed and gross. Not seasoned a lot but trust me it is higher grade cut. Prices areon par with everything today but more worth the price than most. Surprisingly consistent and the people that work there are verypolite which is weirdly a treat these days. Everyone is so mad but not here. Kinda refreshing. Read more

I had a lamb burger, a special they were serving and it was delectable. I chose cucumber and tomato salad and had another lamb... gyro to go along with a piece of baklava. The employees were nice and prompt. I went in-between the lunch and dinner hour so itwas not too busy. I sat by a window with the Sun behind me and I absolutely loved my time there. I shall return another time tosee a friend who works there next time. Read more

Unfortunately this is a one-n-done for me. We ordered this at work and I was supposed to have a Grilled Chicken Gyro and instead... I got a Greek Salad Gyro that had no feta cheese on it. My box was labeled ?Chk Gyro? so I?m not sure what the mix up was. I?mdefinitely not about the vegetarian style food so as a nurse, who happened to be extra hungry, I did manage to eat the GreekSalad Gyro, but it was not enjoyable. Read more

I went here on a Saturday evening and the service was very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and the condiment... bar was well-stocked. The menu here is not huge, but it gets the job done and offers a variety of veggie and meat options. Iwould venture to say that this spot is not super authentic to the cuisine, but it is still very delicious and a good place to gofor a change to the normal restaurants you may frequent in the area. The lamb gyro was well seasoned, the pita was soft eventhough it was toasted fully, and the veggies inside were crisp, but nicely cooked. The basmati rice is lovely! It has greatflavor. The chips look like regular ruffles, but they are super yummy. Honestly I?m usually not a chip person, but I liked thema lot! I felt like the price of the meal was fair for the portions overall and the protein choice I chose. I had a great timeand I?ll be back when I?m in town! Read more

This is my second time in the last few years to eat here and both times the food was good. When you walk in the place from an... ambiance is a little underwhelming and impersonal but clean and organized. You walk up to the counter area and there was a menusitting on a podium to scan through before placing your order. The Counter grilling area is still completed enclosed I amassuming from the COVID period BUT it really makes the environment feeling really muted and unexciting. There is a small openingnear the end that says order here and you place the order. We ordered the Grilled Lamb Feast and the Grilled Beef Feast. Pricewas around $13-$15 for each plate. While the portions are fair and probably the right size for dietary reasons it is a littlesmaller and a little more expensive than most comparable places (Sahara, Mr. Kabob) and because of the full enclosure just feelsless personal and more like a transaction. The meals came out and both were cooked well and tasted great but as I said beforeportion size was a little smaller than expected especially with the name of Feast attached to it. This feels like anAmericanized version of a more personalized small business version and while the food is good it falls a little short comparedto the others I named. It does have better hours than Sahara so if you have a craving for Mediterranean food and it's after 5pyou will get a good meal. Read more

We ordered multiple items to try different things. I know this is a chain and I wasnt expecting ethnic Greek items but at least... try to come close, give flavor, cooked fully and make sure the items look good to. Everything we had was horrible and tasteless.The only thing I can say was good was the rice. I will say the whip feta was interesting. The chicken was not seasoned justthrown on a grill and for marks and seem to be brushed with oil. You can wipe the grill oil off. The pita bread was not cookedlike it was in a steamer or microwave because it was doughy. The tzatziki was stringy which was crazy because that is not realtzatziki. The lamb was chewy and no flavor either. Had also the Mediterranean Salad definitely the garbanzo beans are canned,hardly no feta it was like parmesan it was that little and hardly no walnuts. Now the last draw is the greek salad that camewith the lamb dinner. As a greek never in my life have a seen such a pathetic salad. Chopped tomatoes like you put on a a pizzaor taco that small and cucumbers that the middle was take out. Now who takes out the middle of a cucumber unless the cucumberswere going bad and they did this. I cannot say all the chains are like this but this location I can say is not a good one. Ihave the Greek salad picture just so the corporate can see how pathetic it was and possibly correct it. Read more
