Came here for lunch last week, for 11 this was exceptional!! The shawarma was perfectly roasted and seasoned, along with the pita and rice. The hummus tasted homemade and the salad was a perfect side, love this place so much!

The food was delicious, and the portions were perfect. The price was reasonable and as expected. My wife and I ordered the shawarma lunch special and chicken kabob. Although the chicken took some extra time to cook, it was worth the wait and delicious.

The chicken is marinated perfectly all the time the rice is fresh. If you’re questioning what you need to eat this is the place even if you visit for lunch or dinner, you will never have a more flavorful meal everything is marinated perfectly

This was definitely a different crave for me, I was thinking of a slight healthy but tasteful meal which that it was! The steak was pretty tender but could’ve had less fat & ends I prefer all meat with no fat and been more tender. I also added chicken to my wrap & the chicken was very good & the seasoning mixed with the steak, mixed veggies, & the sauce they put on their shawarma’s! The fries were well seasoned & fried crispy but soft in the middle, I say it definitely was one of the best shawarmas I’ve had in west Michigan! I definitely will be supporting and giving this establishment another shot and see what else on the menu is really my favorite to say the least because 1 item can never give you the full experience of a restaurant or its best dishes, as well as factoring I’ve never really ate middle eastern style food much besides the shawarma’s because it’s what I am familiar with! The environment was chill as well as the employees, also have affordable pricing not to costly to make a custom request! what’s your favorite middle eastern dish? Or something you’ve liked?!

Tried Middle Eastern Appetite today! Always passed by this restaurant but never stopped, glad I did! Got the Shish Tawook! The chicken was grilled to perfection and had tons of flavor! The Pita was flavored nicely. I took the chicken and rice and veggies and put them all in the wrap and ate it! The rice was a great addition to the plate, and when I was done with the pita, I mixed everything and ate it! The restaurant is roomy and cozy and welcoming! The staff was amazing as well and really appreciated the recommendation especially for someone who doesn’t eat a lot of middle eastern food!

Excellent! We got the mixed plate with ground beef and chicken kabobs, and a lentil soup. Everything was absolutely delicious, cooked fresh, of good quality, huge portions, and filling. It was myself and one other person eating all of this and we could barely finish it. Would definitely go back when nearby.

We come here often. Some of my faves are the fried chicken (make it spicy), chicken shawarma, fattoush salad, chicken mandi and honestly there’s more. The food is fresh and their hours are very convenient for anytime you’d be hungry. The food is always flavorful and the service always prompt and polite. I remember how surprised I was with the quality with it being so close to campus. The students have a gem walking distance to them, but even so it’s nice to go to even if you’re just from one of the neighboring areas. You can’t go wrong with anything you order.
