If you’re one of the many people whose stomachs start growling at the thought of a Greek Salad loaded with olives and feta, you’re about to fall in love with the Greek Wrap at Flavors Eatery. Caesar salad wraps were a pretty common occurrence, but a Greek Wrap was new on my radar until a visit to the downtown cafe. This spot on King Street serves a warm and abundant Greek Wrap with your choice of chicken or lamb, but they’ll also happily do a no meat option for vegetarians. I highly advise not missing out.
In addition to the expected spring mix, kalamata olives, tomatoes, and tzatziki sauce, Flavors adds their garlic house dressing and just the right amount of melted, gooey mozzarella cheese. Trust me, it’s not a wrap you’ll be able to just pick up easily. The juices from the veggies as well as a plentiful supply of fresh ingredients necessitate silverware. And if all that weren’t enough, each wrap is served with chips and a fresh housemade salsa.
Their menu is pretty expansive and includes more than a few options for vegetarians. In addition to the Greek Wrap, the veggie wrap is another delicious choice. It’s loaded with Portobello mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, squash, carrots, two kinds of cheese, Cajun spices, and their house garlic sauce.
Be prepared when you order, though, because Flavors doesn’t shy away with portion sizes. Their delicious wraps cover the length of a full dinner plate (but each entrée is under $10). In addition to their entrée items, Flavors Eatery offers smoothies (heralded as some of the best in town), beer, wine, and espresso.
And if you still need an incentive, Flavors has their own free parking lot (a downtown luxury!). They offer a few outside seating options, and on the weekends, play host to live musicians. If you’re looking for a fresh and healthy lunch with plenty of vegetarian options, it’s about to be your new spot.
Flavors Eatery has been a staple in downtown dining for many years now. They’re open for lunch from 11am until 6pm everyday except for Friday when they stay open late – until 9pm.
