wasn't good...inedible pizza. we've been to omar's a couple times. the first few times i enjoyed the food. we went a few months ago and got pizza and wings. the wings were terrible. they were dry/cooked to death and were just totally unappetizing. recently (10/19/12) we picked up some food after work. we ordered the chicken shawarma pizza and a gyro. as we were getting in the car we both remarked on how strong the garlic smell was (we both love garlic). when we got home we each grabbed a piece. i noticed mine had a pretty good amount of garlic on it. my bf only ate half his piece and i asked why and he said the garlic was so strong it was burning his mouth. i didn't believe him so i took a bite of his piece where he said it was very garlic-y....it made my mouth hurt. it was so strong and acid. ewww. i would have taken itbackif we lived closer and we hadn't been at work all day and just wanted to be done with the day. i tried to eat another piece the next day for lunch and as soon as i bit the tip it was an instant, nasty garlic taste in my mouth.total waste of money since we got a large pizza expecting to be able to eat the leftovers for lunch over the next few days and money is tight so this was supposed to be a treat. never again.

great gyro. if you look at my reviews you may say finding a great gyro is my passion, and omar's didn't disappoint. the key, to me, is soft pita and juicy meat. everybody has a different approach to the tzatziki sauce, and it tends to get overblown. their sauce is great, but the lamb and pita were exquisitely done. i also has the falafel appetizer, which was a first for me but i liked it.

i talked to the chef about the pizzas, because i love wood fired pizza but alas just a brick oven. though based on my last trip, i'll bebackto try that later.

good food.. the restaurant is uncomfortable but food is good and we have gonebacka few times. it is too cold in there in winter. it us a converted fast food place and has very little table space. go only fir the food and you won't be disappointed.

best mediterranean/middle eastern food in stl. the food and service has been outstanding here. been here multiple times and this place place never dissapoints. the food tasted great everytime. fresh and honest tasting food. owner is very friendly and takes pride of what he does. freshly made hummus and breads. the meat entree and wraps are always made right. best gyros, shawarma and kabobs! can't wait to comebackhere.
