We stopped in here for lunch during Artprize. Every where in the city is currently mobbed by visitors that it was hard getting in anywhere. Parsley had plenty of open tables and we were able to sit right down. I've never been here so my party ordered a lot of different things to try; Lemon rice soup, hummus, tabbouli, a few different wraps, and some baklava. Everything was delicious. The fattoush was a bit bland, but the wrap as a whole was still really good. There are not many Mediterranean places in town, that I am aware of, and I certainly can't make most of the things on the menu so I would definitely suggest trying this place out.
Service here was also great. Everyone was extremely nice and the manager even made an effort to let us know he would help with anything we needed.
OK riff on Arabic Food. I've eaten at a lot of authentic Arabic restaurants and Parsley does the food justice. The restaurant is bright and inviting and the staff is friendly and accomidating. I tried the lunch special, a sample of four meat dishes, rice and house salad with pita and garnishes. Everything was fresh (even the tomato which is a bonus in February in Michigan). While the Shawarma was a little bland the shish tawook was tasty. I realy liked the house dressing. For $6.99 it was a bargain.
I go here on a regular basis and don't have any complaints! Everything I've eaten there has been delicious and affordable, the service is fast and friendly, the restaurant is always very clean, and they have great lunch specials!
Very impressed by the service and speed that my food was prepared.good environment ad manager met our personal needs!
Fantastic Mediterranean Food. My boyfriend and I get the chicken shwarma with everything but olives and it's delicious and healthy. I always feel satisfied after eating their food and I love the fact that they keep the place very clean and orderly. We like the friendly staff and we feel the food is affordable.
Wonderful service, great food!. Every time I have been to Parsley (at least a dozen), I have been greeted at the counter by a very friendly member of the staff. I have become infatuated with the stuffed grape leaves and falafel pita wraps. I can't stay away from Parsley. Everything about this restaurant is amazing. Get a pita wrap, and prepare to be wowed.
I have to say the first time I walked into Parsley's I didn't think I would like it. However, this was not the case. Thanks to the great service I was pointed in the right direction and had a wonderful experience. Every time since I've had great service I highly recommend.
Great Food at a Great Price!. Since Parsley opened, I have been there several times. Everytime I go the food is excellent, its always fresh and fast. The owners are very friendly people so you feel welcome when you go in. My favorite thing about Parsley is that it tastes great, but you dont have that guilty feeling of "why did I eat that" because its healthy for you. the prices are reasonable.

Located on the corner of Monroe Center and Ottawa, this restaurant is a fairly new addition to Grand Rapids. It's fairly close to Sami's Pita House and only time will tell if or how that will impact either establishment. The basic set-up is similar to Sam
The mango smoothie was so fresh and refreshing. Best tasting mango smoothie I have had in quite some time! Also, thoroughly enjoyed the chicken shawarma bowl.
Great food, friendly service, every time!
We ordered catering for a party and are so happy with everything! They delivered and set up the food. The quality of the food was awesome and all party guests raved about it. There was a ton of food, and we have leftovers for days. Finally, the staff were amazing!! They made the ordering process so easy and answered all my questions, of which I had a ton. We highly recommend them and will be going back again!
Excellent food! This was the first time I had Chicken Shawarma and it was delicious!
Best place for Mediterranean food in downtown. Rice bowls and wraps are awesome. I would recommend their chicken shawarma bowl or chicken curry bowl to try out. Chicken curry bowl is spiced at medium but it’s my favourite. The soups are good and they are just 2$ as side if you are ordering rice bowls. And, falafels taste good and your are lucky if you served hot.
Each food item I have tried here, I love. Fast service, and great employees. I highly recommend stopping in for some amazing quality, and fresh made meals!
Lentil soup was great also the Tabouli. Good location too.
Stopped for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Very flavorful shawarma and fresh humus. Service was quick and friendly.
Stopped in to try their Greek Salad, very satisfied with the service and food. I would definitely stop here again. Large salad with plenty of toppings! Well worth the stop.
Always delicious, I've been coming here for years! Very relaxed place, perfect for the casual meal, and don't forget your baklava!
I just wish I had one where I live!!! Excellent food. Great location. Staff were all super friendly. Oh...and did I mention the excellent food?
Parsley is the best take out option in Downtown Grand Rapids. Zaid is one of the kindest humans I’ve met, and he runs a fantastic restaurant. The food is always fresh and you will leave feeling full and feeling like family.
Just had the daily special chicken stir fry and holy smokes. Please make this a menu item permanently! SO good. 10/10!!!
Some of the best Mediterranean food I’ve had in Michigan with very authentic flavors. Food was given to me in a couple of minutes. Restrooms are very clean. My only complain is that the mango smoothie is a bit overpriced.
Great food and super nice people.
I enjoyed my chicken bowl. The spicy rice wasn't too spicy yet flavorable. Service was quick and friendly.
Steak kabob wrap was very tasty, and the new fries are extra crispy. Staff are far more friendly and helpful than most. Cheerful, fast, consistent.
I vacationed in Greece for 2 weeks. This place is spot on! Authentic, great atmosphere, and the food sent me back to the Mediterranean. Thank You.
