Middle Eastern Restaurants near Fremont, CA

“We ordered the chicken shawarma plate from the “Grill” section and chose hummus as our base and then babaghanouge and muhammara (roasted red pepper and walnut dip) as our 2 sides. We also got some freekeh (toasted green wheat) on the side.

Simply put, this was a masterpiece. Every time I eat this type of cuisine, I start re-evaluating all the years I spent without Middle Eastern food. About how much of a shame it is that I discovered this amazing food so late in life. But no point in lamenting the past—we must look towards the future and get ourselves excited about how much Middle Eastern food we will consume moving forward!

Anyway, let me start talking about the food forreal now. The corn and edamame salsa was incredibly fresh, springy, and each kernel of corn and each edamame bean had an incredible crunch and sweetness to it that definitely complemented the meaty chicken. The chicken was nicely spiced but could have been a tad bit warmer, I thought. Nonetheless, great flavors and seasoning. The hummus was absolutely delectable. Velvety smooth, perfect amount of bitterness and nuttiness from the tahini, nicely seasoned, and adequately bright from the lemon juice and fruity olive oil.

The freekeh was a nice surprise. I had never had freekeh before, and the individual grains were so bouncy and juicy that I had to re-think my rice-centric grain worldview. The seasonings made the side feel like a complete meal of its own—the grain had a base of roasty, toasty nuttiness that went amazingly well with the smooth outer coating of olive oil (presumably) and warm, Middle Eastern spices. Perfect with any of the three dips or their house-made sauces.

Speaking of the dips, the muhammara and babaghanouge were perfect as well. Everything had a healthy drizzle of the most fruity, fresh olive oil ever, which only heightened the deliciousness of each dip. The muhammara was very sweet, which let me know that the red peppers were indeed roasted super well. The babaghanouge was also super smoky but rather chunky, which made for a textural delight and contrast from the very smooth hummus. And when combined with the soft, pillowy, and comforting pita bread… So perfect.“

“This is an amazing restaurant! Their food is great. We’ve catered big orders from them twice, and they’ve never let us down—their prices are fair, and they’re always on time. They have a wide variety of halal options, and their staff is personable and friendly. 10/10 recommend.“
