We ordered kafta kebab, falafel sandwiches and foul mudammas.Beef kafta was dry and yellow rice seemed overcooked and chewy, like it was microwaved. Pita bread was dry and was not fresh or home made. Tabouleh had yellowing parsley,m and some parsley looked soggy/wet. My vegeterian friend said her falafel wasn't very good either. I don't know they could go wrong with so many dishes. Rice and kebabs should be basic staples.Also, we never received the foul mudammas yet they charged us.We spent over $50 and pretty much everything was awful and didn't recieve food we paid for. Perhaps it might be better if we ate in, but it was a Monday and dead, so...never again.Go to Aya's instead for proper lebanese freshly prepared food, it's unfortunate they are closed on Mondays

We were attended by a very friendly man. The service was great. He gave us a few minutes to order and explained to us what we were ordering. He was very friendly and helpful. The food was good. I feel like it wasn’t fresh. While we were waiting we kept hearing the microwave going off and on. I don’t like leaving bad reviews, and honestly I’m not leaving this to be picky. But hopefully to bring some awareness to the owner.

The falafel was so delicious ,I throughly enjoyed a pistachio flavored drink, it was fantastic.I finished my meal with a dreamy dessert called Burma,so yummy ? I highly recommended to all my friends and family.The only thing I didn’t care for was when I went to wash my hands the water a yellow color to it seemed kinda strange and all the sounds of banging noises during my meal.Upon entering and leaving I noticed a lot of construction work being done all around this wonderful restaurant.

OMG we love this place. Food is amazing. The lamb shank is the best. We always order lamb shank, shawarma and few appetizers. Foods are always fresh and taste amazing. The chef is such a sweetheart. Amazing food with a great establishment. Loved their grocery store too.

I'm so glad this place is still around. I used to get food from there quite often when I worked at The Mighty Mushroom, which used to be in that same plaza, 20+ years ago. The owner was super nice and the food was always delicious.Nothing like this in Upstate NY, unfortunately :(

We were greeted with a friendly smile and a personal touch that was very welcoming.The food was absolutely amazing and reminded me of my grandmothers cooking.
I wish I could give zero stars. How does this place stay in business? Dry, hard rice. Dry, hard shredded chicken. Everything tasted several days old. Even the packaged cookies tasted stale. We spent so much money on this garbage.

Second time getting food there, 1st time eating in. Don't remember what I got last time but definitely worth sitting in. Got the lamb and rice lunch special, big portions was only able to finish half the rice and got the rest in a to-go box. Also got the grape leaves my favorite appetizer. Everything was made to order food came out nice and hot. Also got some food to go I'll post pics later for those once I get ready to eat it.

"Olarn Montra Thai Massage & Day Spa Facial SPA can play a role in unblocking lymphatic meridians, but also promote sweat gland secretion, accelerate sweat excretion, so as to discharge metabolites in the body with sweat, to achieve beauty and detoxification effects. Middle Eastern Aromas Restaurant & Grocery Halal Food is located in 3150 S Babcock St. The food in the store is very delicious, the shape is also very good, the aroma is also very unique."

Tried this today & OMGGGGG!!!! The lamb over rice is so flavorful, tender and the rice is a work of art with each piece packed with mouthwatering deliciousness. The hummus is just incredible too. I found a place I'll be going back ALL THE TIME. The prices are amazing too!
Ordered gyros and schwarma. The Schwartz was almost empty. Terrible! Last time eating here!
