Middle Eastern Restaurants near Cleveland Heights, OH

“Excellent, creative menu. I’m GF and the flatbread option is delicious. Hummus is fantastic as were the brussels. Eclectic drink options. Great service. I’ll be back!“

“Today was my first time here and I came with friends and my 5 year old son. We had the pleasure of being waited on by Sebastian! He was extremely patient with my son and went the extra mile with his food recommendations and making it kid-friendly. He also noticed which sauces I seemed to like the most and brought one that did not originally come with my meal. The food and atmosphere as wonderful in itself, but Sebastian made our first time here one to be remembered! Thank you to him!!“

“Another great restaurant by Cedar and Lee. We've been here twice in the past month after making the good decision to come here for a birthday celebration. The food is a bit pricey, but honestly, I don't mind - compared to times I've spent money on food that isn't worth it, this is far better!The staff are friendly and helpful - Ishmael was our first waiter and had great recommendations (can't remember our second guy, but he was great, too!). We've had the moussaka, filet mignon kebabs, an assortment of hot and cold appetizers, and some great desserts. The entree's are generously portioned, cooked perfectly medium rare, and not overwhelmingly seasoned. The feta and olive appetizer is probably our favorite app - so fresh! I also recommend their sangria - they mentioned they soak the fruit in the wine, and it's so good!This place is a must-visit for great food, ambiance, and apps. Can't recommend enough!“

“Ordered my food online and it said 20 min pick up my drive was 18 min and as I walked in the guy behind the counter asked "Steven?" which told me 2 things 1 these guys pay attention to the details of each customer and that the food was going to be amazing and I wasn't disappointed. I got a chicken and a beef shawarma and they were both top notch and they don't use the same seasonings on both which was nice. The sauce and pickles that came with it were absolutely perfect pairing. I ordered 3 desserts a pistachio cake which was moist and perfectly sweet. A chocolate moouse cake that was decadant and rich. The tirimisu was perfect however. The ladyfingers on bottom were just perfectly saturated with expresso and it was the highlight of my meal 10/10“

“Very tasty! The kibbie nayyeh was wonderful.“

“The Kabob house has been a welcome respite for my lunches in my work area.The owners provide a great falafel plate, with hummus and tabouli, topped with a pickle, for us that are vegetarian inclined ?They are welcoming and kind, and they have no problem adding additional dishes to your plate, such as the vegetarian Kabob or the cauliflower, cooked just right.If you're in the vicinity of the arcade on fifth, I would encourage you to stop by and give them a shot, you won't be disappointed.“

“Excellent food! The spices are perfect in each dish! Fresh, savory and delicious food! We loved all the dishes we tried and will be back again and again! Very helpful, friendly staff!“

“This is a great gem. I got the Loubie beans which have the perfect amount of heat to them. I've had loubie other places which don't add a bit of heat. These are by far the BEST Loubie I've ever had!!! You have to try them!The beet root hummus was delicious.I also got a container of Labneh, which was delish.Great place for lunch. The gentleman who took care of me was helpful with my selections!“

“EXCELLENT FOOD!!!! !!!!!!!!“

“We ordered a soup and grilled chicken platters along with quinoa, Israeli salad, grilled vegetables and sweet potato fries. The portion sizes were very generous, all fresh and absolutely delicious -and quite filling!! The owner was also very gracious to us. Highly recommended !!“

“I met the Manager and let him know it was my first time there. He was very pleasant and recommended their hummus (a specialty) and highly recommended some of their specialty dishes. The food was excellent. If you’ve never been, you should check it out! Great prices, awesome place, excellent food and wonderful service. This was at the Powell location.“

“I have been dining here for at least 30 years. I have never been disappointed in the food. The hummus and shawarma and tabbouleh are my all time favorite. But every single thing is excellent. Recently had an order delivered. Nates Deli took great care with my order. Thank you so much.“

“We really enjoyed eating here while traveling from out of town. We stayed a little longer on Monday just to try here (they were unfortunately closed on weekend). Wish we could have tried more of the menu, but what we did eat was delicious. Well kept, clean, great food-at good prices. Keep up this great business!!“

“The food here is amazing, delicious, and healthy. The service is excellent. They really take the time to make you feel at ease and they give you the friendliest service. One particular staff member, a tall gentleman was very kind and asked how I liked the food, took the time to tell me my options when I was ordering, and offered to put my tray away when I was done eating. Now that’s service! Service in most places have not been satisfactory lately as the food service industry slowly picks back up from a type of recession. But the customer care and service here is above and beyond.“

“My family and I came here, and we were very skeptical to come in, based on the reviews. After we stepped in though, our mood completely changed. Food was really tasty and came in really good portions. Most importantly the food is halal. Don’t listen to the reviews about the service, they had really fast service, and were very nice. We would really like to thank our waitress, she was very kind, and was very helpful, unfortunately we did not catch her name, but thank you! Only problems with the atmosphere is that it’s a little dark, and washrooms aren’t that clean. Chairs are very nice, and with pillows, and cushions that make it super comfortable. Definitely would come back, and recommend it for everyone!“
