First time at this place. Got two pita wraps - one with felafel, one with souvlaki. Both were beautifully made, fresh, delicious and HUGE. The felafel could have been spicier, though. The restaurant is rectangular. I like that. Square restaurants feel wrong for some reason.

Your food is amazing!!! But you need to stop doing business with university hots they are dragging your business down with incorrect orders, and rudeness. People of you want to order do it from here but avoid university hots. Run by kiddies for the kiddies!!! Cheap labor results in lousy employees!!!!

I was in Geneseo Ny today for business and was looking for a healthier option for a restaurant. The Lighterside Eatery was recommended from one of my clients. This is an excellent choice if your looking for fresh salads and Pitas. Although it is a pretty simple restaurant, the place is very clean and the food is fresh. I would give my experience and the food a 5 star. Give them a try! Chris

Always gotten take out here from work. The chicken supreme is the bomb!!!! I can't say enough good things about this wrap. It's wrapped perfectly, plenty of fixings on the inside. Staff is super friendly and they know what they are doing. Have not had a bad interaction yet!

Great tasting food - wonderful service! They work with University Hots next door, so if some in your party prefer burgers and curly fries, everything can be ordered here. Convenient! Mediterranean Bowl is my favorite dish.

I will visit again. I had a fresh flavorful veggie wrap. It was very satisfying after a long bicycle ride. The prices are reasonable with fast service.

Food was good, the servers were very friendly and helpful, the pricing seemed appropriate. The dining area, however, was very cold. I couldn't take my coat off the entire time. I still highly recommend you check it out. Nice to have a healthy option amongst all the fast food "restaurants."

12:00 - Placed order over phone for delivery at 12:30- Confirmed with attendant, she said it would be here in 1/2 an hour. (We are a place of business, lunch is at 12:30). LIE. 12:50 - Still no delivery. Called, spoke to a female attendant, she said she was packing it up now, it would be here in 10 minutes. LIE 1:30 - Called (after numerous looks out the door to see if anyone was coming) and spoke to a male attendant. Asked where our order was. He asked "What's the name its under"? We said "G***". He said "Oh Yeah, here it is. It must have fallen through the cracks, but it's not made yet so at least its not sitting out getting warm! We can make it now, do you still want it? " At least he didn't lie. Since everyone had already missed their lunch hour and we were lied to twice, we just told him we would never be back so not to bother. We hung up the phone somewhere while he was trying to apologize. UPDATE: I changed my review from one to three stars as the manager at least called us back after speaking to his employee, and although her story still didn't match what she actually said to us, he was gracious enough to call and apologize. We still will not be returning as customers.

I love the food and I love almost everything about this place, but every time I do an online order, they get it wrong. I order a Regular Pita and get a Small. I order chips, they forget to include them, and so on....and I am sure to include a tip when I order online...oh well. So, I would just say go to and eat at the restaurant, don't order online.

It was okay but the floors are very very sticky. The bathroom need to be clean the windows need to be cleaned all the tables are dirty all the condiments that they were using that they said were fresh need to be wiped down and clean and the chicken taste processed and it wasn't that fresh food I don't like leaving negative reviews it's my least favorite thing.

Dirty washroom. Sticky floors. The inattentive guy on the counter made a flavorless mediocre pita. I am sure the management will train him on customer service, cleanliness and food preparation. The girl however was nice, respected choices and made tasty pitas for those accompanying me.

We ordered Veggie Burger Mini plate w/sweet potatoes fries; Mac salad and beans and grilled cheese and we are very very mad. First the delivery was for 4:27pm and the driver did not arrive until almost 4:50, which is very disappointing when you order a grilled cheese. Who wants cold cheese and the grilled cheese was burned beyond cooked. The macaroni and cheese had no flavor. Will never ever order from them again.
