2 months agoThis was our first time dining at this restaurant, and we were not aware it was a “seat yourself” establishment upon arrival. While the food itself is very good, the overall customer service left much to be desired. Our waitress came across as cold, rushed, and unfocused throughout the experience. We ordered both an appetizer and entrées, but the appetizer was never brought out. It seemed the staff were moving quickly under close supervision, which may have contributed to the oversight. Although the dishes were flavorful and well-prepared, the portion sizes did not feel proportionate to the price. Overall, the quality of the food is there, but the service and value for the price could use improvement.

7 months agoEverything about this place is awesome. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Always a pleasant experience. I ordered the Alana bowl. This is wonderfully crafted to order. The freshness of each individual ingredient compliments each other masterfully. The dolmas are also very delicious and fresh. It was Avery delicious experience. If you're ever around the this area I highly recommend this place.

9 months agoBest dining experience so far in McAllen, Tx. Mediterranean food, delightfully prepared and presented. A welcome break from the too many other restaurants in town.

9 months agoFood was good and the portions were perfect. Service was preoccupied by a large party so it wasn't very attentive. I thought it was weird that they're selling oils and whatever. The smoothies seemed overpriced. Would go back

a year agoThe decor, the tables, and the presentation of the dishes is absolutely lovely! It's quite impressive. The owner had a beautiful vision for this place and they definitely executed it. The food was phenomenal. I ordered the Mango Habanero Salmon. Every detail about the dish, down to the side salad, was delicious. It tasted homemade and refreshing. We also ordered the Chimichurri Chicken and Empanadas appetizer with spinach filling. We finished everything! Haha. That's when you know you really enjoyed it all. The service was timely and our server was polite. He recommended that next time I try the Pistachio Salmon and I won't lie, I had my eye on that one beforehand. 5 stars for Greens and Lemons as I will be dining with them again most definitely.

a year agoWe went on a Monday at about 6:30p. It wasn't busy. Only a couple of people were in there, and a few to-go orders were picked up while we were there. Only one gentleman was working and serving the front. He was super nice and very attentive. I got the cucumber water and also a regular water to drink, both of which were very good. We got the buffalo grilled cauliflower appetizer, and it was really good. Their Buffalo sauce was excellent. Cauliflower was cooked very well, had some nice charr on it, but not too much and was nice and soft but not too soft. I got the habañero mango salmon with roasted veggies, and I subbed the salad for their rice. The salmon was cooked perfectly and had so much flavor, I thought it would be spicy, but it wasn't. The rice was insane. It had so much flavor to it. There were small chunks of meat and mushrooms in it, I think. The roasted veggies were seasoned well and cooked to perfection. 10/10. Would recommend. It's probably just a few bucks more expensive than what you'd expect, but because of the care and flavor they put into their food, it is 100% worth it.

2 years agoGreens and Lemons offers a pleasant dining experience. The staff is welcoming, and the atmosphere is very modern and chill. However, it was surprisingly empty for a Saturday night at 7 pm. On the food front, most dishes were good, although my Greek bowl's lamb was a tad on the dry side. Nevertheless, the flavors were enjoyable. Overall, a solid choice for a meal.

Edited a year agoMy first time here. It's not typically my "go to" place for breakfast/brunch. I went here with a group of colleagues for brunch. The place was very clean. The prices in the menu were somewhat steep for it being a simple brunch. However, it was very fresh tasting. All the ingredients used for my meal: nopales, black beans, and veggies tasted very fresh. I was very satisfied with my healthier version of the typical omelette. Their coffee was also flavorful, not weak or bland, (I drink my coffee black). The server tended to our needs in an expeditious and friendly manner, considering we were a large party. All in all, Great Healthy Brunch!
