Never would have stopped BUT I was told they had Gyros. I went to Greece and the Gyros. My feelings for Mediterranean food changed. This place brings me back! Even inside has a great atmosphere, and mmmm, the fresh water takes me right back. Its deliciousness all together!

We visit nupa every time we are in Rochester. It’s our top spot to visit. The folks that work there are kind and hard working. The food is made quickly and is fresh and delicious. Last time I got the lemon chicken, Greek, and caprese salad.

Food tasted amazing, we got the gyro combo plate with a lamb kabob and was also exquisite. Caprese salad and broccoli soup for sides you can't go wrong. Food took a bit but they are busy and very good so it's expected. Go give em a go, especially if you like lamb, for sure you will like it.

The chicken and lamb kabob combo was fantastic! The Greek lemon Avgolemono soup was outstanding. My other side was a Greek salad with extra tomatoes and onions... outstanding! So tasty, hot, and fresh! Thank you! We'll be back!

Nupa North in Rochester is an excellent spot for a quick, delicious Mediterranean meal. I ordered the beef combo with a side salad and soup—it was flavorful and perfectly cooked. My husband tried a sandwich recommended by the cashier, and it didn’t disappoint. My dad opted for the falafel combo with fries, and everything was fresh and well-prepared. We couldn’t leave without dessert, so we got baklava, which was flaky, sweet, and absolutely delicious. The service was fast, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality Mediterranean food in the area!

Nupa North is a Mediterranean food lover’s dream. The hummus? Unreal—I don’t even like hummus, and I’m obsessed. Pair it with their soft, warm pita, and you’re golden. The kabobs, gyro, zucchini, and spicy feta are all winners. Seriously, everything on the menu is fresh and packed with flavor. The service is fast, and the staff is polite and professional. However, the dining space is pretty small, so it can feel cramped. And while the location is convenient, it's kind of a downer since it’s in a gas station parking lot. Minor quirks aside, this place is top-notch.

We stopped here to meet a friend for lunch while passing through the area. The menu has a variety of options, including multiple that are suitable for vegetarian or vegan diets. We ordered a chicken salad, a gyro salad, and a falafel pita, and everything was delicious. Service was kind and welcoming despite it being extremely busy, and prices were reasonable. We would definitely come back.
