Max E: Hey Tom pro tip: when you ignore your customers standing in line... we can still see you! Like today when you ate directly out of a serving bowl with your bare hands. Pretty sure that's multiple health code violations!! Disgusting!!

Cara I Doyle: Can't go wrong with Sassool. This place is on rotation for our family. Food is delicious.Kid-friendliness: Family friendly restaurant, with good kid food options.

Angelo DeVita: As usual Sassool's is excellent Mediterranean food period. A very broad selection of cold and hot items including grilled protein items I usually get the pick 4 and get four vegetables usually two hots and too colds plus pita bread. Can be busy at popular times but has indoor and outdoor seating. I recommend it if you like this style of food, it's the best in the triangle.

Shashank vedula: Food is great, I made a doordash order. But the doordash messed up on the delivery so had to drive myself to pick up. Anyways, food is so good, would love to try once more. Just that they were out of pita breads, so little dissappointed with that, may be because doordash messed up delivery, so by the time I went they were out of it. They should have added in my pickup bag. I would definitely recommed to try over here, possible dine in, ambience is good.

Simeon Snow: This is a cozy Mediterranean food place with a lot of options on the menu. There was a small store like area in the beginning of the line followed by a line where you order food. The most common option is to choose from a list of sides to put on your plate with options for desserts near the end of the line. I came with a large group and our meals were all incredibly fresh and savory. Would definitely come here again!

Hafsa Shamim: Hands down THE BEST Mediterranean restaurant in Cary! From their paninis to shawermas to bowls everything is delicious and not to mention healthy! The gyro meat is super juicy, their Jasmin special sauce is tangy, hummus is creamy yum yum yum. The whole menu is a must try. Service is super quick too. Whenever we visit Cary this is the place we eat the most from. Love it! Keep it up guys!

John Cotter: This place is the Krispy Kreme donuts of Falafel, except their "Hot Falafel" sign is always lit. Best Falafel in town. Crispy outside, moist inside. Moist. It defies physics. I don't understand it but I don't think about it too hard. This falafel is going to feel like a back rub for your mouth. It's a religious experience. Falafelluia. When you hold the falafel, you will never have held anything like it, and you will fully realize it. It's the perfect size and weight. I honestly feel as though it has the potential to bring about world peace. You will remember how good it is and you will get it again. You will tell your friends and family about the falafel to show how cultured you are, and they will be impressed.

Tyshaun Ednez: The workers were rude and got upset because they.messed up an order and had to redo it. They alsogotnuoawt because they tried to serve us which look like old food and my partner asked for a fresh batch. My partner expressed concerns to the manager and instead of correcting his staff, he brushed it off. We could also tell they were making rude comments about my partner as well in side huddles. We love Jasmin at other locations, we just won't be returning to this particular one.

Mary Jones: Ordered delivery and my Triple Kebab Platter was awesome. Chicken and lamb were especially delicious and tender while the steak tenderloin had no flavor in comparison. Got a lot of food for my $ with these 3 skewers,rice,salad, dipping sauce and bread!!! Kibbeh was also awesome but extremely small and with that considered very expensive!

chabo damian: the expectation of eating grilled kabab.was disappointing. the lamb and loin skewers were dry and hard..the dish comes with some salad leaves to fill and the rest of rice. the tiziki sauce was unpleasant with the floury texture.the shawarma gyro was ok mad it is not a traditional gyro..the price is expensive for what they offer. lack of hygiene in the house..

Cyrus Asgari: The food was brilliant. The lamb and the chicken AND THE rice were cooked perfectly; the fries were crunchy and even without the ketchup, the salt on the fries provided it with a fresh and flavorful taste. The malt beverage was also delicious; I haven’t had this brand in many years, since the last time I lived in Iran was from back in 2012. It brought me some good memories. If you desire some Persian or a Mediterranean dish, this is the restaurant for you.I will be coming back again (I ordered from DoorDash yesterday)

Trish milord: After reading the reviews we were excited to check it out.However, we didn’t receive the same vibe as many had spoken about.The service was absolutely poor. The gentleman that served us looked like a family member of the owner. I could be wrong. But the other servers had to pick up all his faults. He gave us our drinks including soda with no ice. Not to mention he never asked us for what we wanted to drink. Just a minute before our food came out he just gave us 3 waters mind you there was 4 of us. After our meal came out my husband had to ask him for a drink. Not cool. We let him know from the beginning that I had sesame seed allergy so he said that he would bring us bread without it. Instead he brought us the one with seeds anyways after waiting almost 15 minutes. Then I reminded him no seeds and he went back and told them. We ordered hummus and they brought that out right away but what were we supposed to eat with it? He left and didn’t even say a word to us. Just rude! We were just sitting there waiting until we realized that the owner sitting there doing his bookkeeping didn’t care. He was gone and now the other two wait staff were left to pick up his work. They had no idea what was going on but they gracefully took care of us. Which this shouldn’t have happened. I do also want to point out that the waiter took on 2 other tables and we watched him take care of them before he left. Their drinks had ice and they even got refills but we didn’t. Just disappointingWe got our meal and it wasn’t bad but definitely had better.I think after reading so many great reviews I was hoping for a better experience. Unfortunately, it only took a waiter to ruin it.If they are family and they are working they should still treat customers with kindness, respect and dignity. Because if they were outside hired employees they wouldn’t tolerate it.As much as I hate to say it but I believe race and culture played a big factor here.

Preston Absher: We came in on Father's day and had an excellent meal. All of the food was great. Our mixed appetizer was excellent, the bread was very good, and all of our food was delicious and well done. I really liked Turkish tea as well. However our server seemed stretched thin. We saw him about every 30 minutes. Our tea was refilled by another server. We never got the silverware and extra bread we asked for. Definitely will be back. Just expect it to take some time.

Mary M: I was concerned when it was mostly empty when we walked in at 6, but by the time we left it was packed.My friends and I chose to share several appetizers and a pizza. We were impressed with the number of vegetarian options. Everything we got was delicious and packed with flavor (the stuffed grape leaves were so good they didn't even make it into the pictures 🤣). Even the complimentary bread and oil is worth noting!All in all- fantastic experience and im excited to come back!

Elizabeth Walker: Enjoyed a very good lunch at Bosphorus in May 2023. I love Turkish food and they do not disappoint. It was my 2nd time to dine there when visiting family in Morrisville NC. Suggest a reservation if you have 4 or more. We were 7. Portions are plentiful.. I do suggest if you order the profiteroles for dessert have your waitperson explain it to you first..it’s like a very dense rich chocolate pudding with the puff pastry.
