Ayhan’s Mediterranean Marketplace

Ordered a grilled onion and feta cheese omelet. «Light please.» The omelet was over cooked and brown. There was no feta cheese in the omelet, so I called the waitress over. She apologized and said she would take care of it. A minute later she came back with my plate and said, «the feta cheese is the brown spots where the cheese melted and got brown.» Really? So that was my Happy Mothers’s day breakfast.
So much potential; however from our experience, there is no desire to make the customer happy. Management seems to have the opinion of if they don’t like our food… don’t come back. This ultimately will be their downfall.
Btw…the waitress was lovely.

The food is okay if you are not passionate about quality ingredients. Lots of fly’s in the the place because they leave the windows open and the food just sits on the counter for the flys to land on. The humus sucks and the rotisserie chickens are not too good either. Better to go to North Shore Farms and hope they have a Bell & Evans chicken. The spinach pies are good and the red lentil soup is excellent. They also have feta cheese but you have to ask for it otherwise they give you the cheap stuff.

⁴⁄₅ stars because the service is annoying in the way that they pressure me to order stuff i didnt want and they wouldnt stop making suggestions until i agreed, which i didnt. let me be at peace.
the place is nice, the view is great, big windows, the chairs are uncomfortable.
the baklava is great, many options which is really unique. not sure what else to say — im not blown away.

I’ve never eaten in the restaurant but the market food is good. Go to is chicken and lamb gyro, turkey chili and chopped salads.

The only good thing about this place is the view and even that is questionable depending where you’re sitting. Hubby had the New Yorker omelet, I had the breakfast quesedilla, both were just ok, nothing to write home about. As mentioned in other reviews the service truly is lacking. Our server had the personality of the burnt toast she brought us. Never offered a refill on our drinks and didn’t even bring out butter or jelly for the burnt toast, but I guess she figured no one was eating it anyway.

The food was ok but we were charged double on our credit card. Hank corrected this error.

My friend and I came here for Sunday brunch and ordered Greek omelette and a chicken gyro platter. Seating was quick, atmosphere was lovely, but food was mediocre. The omelette was delicious, consisting of tomatoes, spinach, and feta. The chicken gyro platter, on the other hand, was horrendous. The slices of chicken were almost unrecognizable; they were rectangular tofu colored and textured pieces of rubber! They looked as if they came out of a Spam container. Gross. NOT a place for Greek food. On top of all that, when we wanted to split the check, the waitress asked US to compute the separate amounts… Unbelievable.

first, I’d like to mention that this restaurant used to be great. it had great food and great service. now, I’m not so sure. the atmosphere is still amazing, thanks to the large windows.
not going to mention the odd service (that I experienced),
but… it was too hard to order a plain gyro! I had to specifically request pita (as opposed to a wrap… who does that? it’s not even a gyro anymore.)
and when I did get one, I got the wrong type of pita… but as for the gyro itself, it was absolutely disgusting. the meat wasn’t meat! it was some «processed meat product» by the looks of it. very disappointed. the best part was the lettuce, tomato, the sauce, and the atmosphere.
and when my friend and I asked to split the check, the waitress told us to do the math for her…
what? who does that? I mean, it was nice to have a little refresh of math class … but not for Sunday brunch.

Great place for family lunch with excellent water views in Port Washington
Fast service (little too fast — got check before asking for it, wanted to order coffee before:))

Great staff! We went one Friday night when they had live music and it was fun. Cute area with a beautiful view. I also bought a piece of jewelry from here and it broke and without hesitation the manager, Al, replaced it with no charge or questions and apologized for the broken one! Amazing service and great people.

The location was beautiful which is why my husband and I stopped here for lunch. The service however is the worst service I have ever experienced. I asked for lemon with my tea and after 15 mins of waiting I got nothing. The waitress took our order 20 minutes after we got our tea and coffee. We had only ordered one sandwich to share which we had to wait 30 mins more to get. My husband was so upset that it took us almost 1 hour to receive one sandwich and a tea with no lemon he asked for the food to go. We will never go back there again!

This place could be a top Greek deli/​restaurant if they put a little effort in. The location is perfect and a great spot to grab a cup of coffee and stare out into the beautiful Long Island sound.
Pros:
Great location
Beautiful views
Parking
Cons:
Dirty
Unfriendly staff
Very disorganized

Okay, honestly I don’t write reviews too often since I am quite patient and tolerant with food and service. So really, to push me to be writing this is really something.
I want to preface by saying the food is pretty good, for a decent price. What I’m writing this review for is service, I highly advise AGAINST sitting down here for brunch on Sunday morning. Our waitress was RUDE, granted she was the only one here for a few tables but it was in no way any a «lunch rush» sort of situation.
We asked for cups for our juice since it came in cans that were completely filthy, she literally put her hand out in a «stop» motion, shook her head and rolled her eyes. What? It’s been 20 minutes since I asked her and still no cups, I’m actually scared to ask her again. I ordered a quesadilla off of the menu under a section that said «comes with home fries and toast», so I naturally asked her for wheat toast with my meal. She gives me a dirty look and says «Well you ordered a quesadilla which comes on a tortilla, so it would be weird if you got toast». Excuse me?
We actually ended up going to up to the deli and ordering food since we were waiting for so long, again food is delicious. Just really avoid getting table service at all costs here.

So much potential here: beautiful views, lovely Mediterranean place, interesting food options.
BUT, for weekend brunch, they have one server and one assistant. GROSSLY understaffed. Coffee was cold when it arrived. Food was below average. Morale among the staff was clearly low. Took 15 — yes fifteen — minutes for waitress to notice we were finished eating. Took another 15 — yes FIFTEEN — minutes to get the check, AFTER we had asked for it.
The owner here runs two other restaurants on the block. Best case scenario: he realizes the value of the properties, sells them to someone who really knows how to run a restaurant, and then that person makes something great out of a cool location. Please stay away from this place.

Nice place to get a Mediterranean food with large selection of salad and large portion everything for take home dishes. Like the sunroom porch where you have nice view. Problems to stay in you will have is that the AC is not strong enough because of its wild open windows. Still like it a lot.

I enjoy this restaurant mainly because of the location so close to the water. This place is on the corner of Main Street, with a very nice vibe. This restaurant serves up American and Greek classics for a reasonable price. We came here for breakfast on Mother’s Day. There is a somewhat limited breakfast menu, but it serves its purpose. There weren’t that many people there and we had to wait like 15 – 20 minutes for someone to take our order. Then, it took a while to cook our food. Anyway, the food arrived and looked appetizing. The eggs and toast was good, but nothing special, the pancakes had a special taste you can’t find at a diner, and the Mediterranean omelet was very interesting and quite good. This was a good start to our day.

I’m writing an update because we tried to go here again on Sunday. Granted it was fathers day but really, it’s ridiculous in this place.
We walk in and sit down at a table. All the other tables are taken. This place has a view of the harbor and when the weather is nice they have giant glass doors that open up and it almost like eating outside. Of course on the nicest day of the year the doors are closed and the AC is blasting and it’s like a freezer in the place.
We wait and wait and wait. We ask a bus girl if there is table service. She mumbles and moves on cleaning up dirty plates. We wait and wait and wait. Over 25 minutes and we don’t have a menu, and we have not even seen a waitress. Table next to us of 6. One of the guys there goes to the kitchen to see where their food is. It’s been sitting there waiting to be picked up for 15 minutes and is cold now. They walk out. We wait another five minutes and the three of us leave.
This place blows. I wish I could give it negative stars.

…a nice outdoors inside feeling…

I love coming here for lunch. They have a nice variety of foods behind the counter. The sugar snap peas are crunchy and yummy and complement the other dishes nicely. You can definitely find a hearty, healthy meal and enjoy a nice a view while you eat it. I enjoy coming here with my kids and then going to the bookshop on the opposite corner afterwards.

Ugh. What a disappointment… Our second visit here for takeout during the week. First visit was fine. Gentleman taking our orders and making coffee, great. Last visit, shit-​show. Totally bumbling of the manager who, after we asked where the homefries were included with our omelletes, said they were no good and he wouldn’t eat them… Wha??? He took the coffees off our bill, but once we got to the pier, the order was completely wrong. Charged for things we never got
Do yourself a favor and go to Harbor Deli right across the street.
