Middle Eastern Restaurants near Duluth, GA

“Just off of pleasant hill on Breckinridge, you’ll find the gem that is Damasco. Duluth has tons of food options, covering pretty much every ethnicity and niche, so I was a bit stuck today with decision paralysis. Then, I saw Damasco and thought “this is close and I don’t have to deal with Pleasant hill.”

I got their lunch special, a chicken shawarma and kofta sandwich. After the first bite, I knew that out of all the restaurants I could have picked in the general area, I made the best choice possible.

Food is fresh, tastes amazing, priced very fairly, and you feel great afterwards. The restaurant is clean, beautiful, has good atmosphere, and great service. The bread was perfectly crispy, the meats were flavorful and juicy, and all the extra bits that go into the sandwich just elevates it to another level. Easily is gonna be my staple goto place for lunch!“

“Mazaj and Eleva are always the best places to go to I wouldn’t go anywhere else“

“This fast casual cafe is underrated for the quality of food served. Think Mediterranean Chipotle...

What makes them special?
1. Fresh made pita bread, made in house in a huge oven on premises. And, you can watch the entire cooking process. Not only is the bread made fresh, but it is CHEAP.
2. Fresh made falafel to order. The falafel and fries are made as soon as you order, so let them know up front.
3. Dips are delicious. Regular and spicy hummus, and babaganoush are all insanely delicious and under $5 for a tub. Pairs perfectly with their bread.

My only complaints is that meals are served in a flimsy bowl that sucks all of the moisture out of the hummus. I'm also not a fan of their reheated meats and slop-bowl serving style that America loves these days. Too bad, because the meat quality and flavor is good, but once it's reheated so many times, the beef, chicken, lamb, loses it's appeal.

The ordering counter is crammed into the corner of the restaurant and is very stressful to maneuver if there is more than one customer. They seem to do mostly takeaway business, even though the dining room is spacious.“

“Raiyan is an excellent food runner at Eleva. He’s quick, reliable, and keeps everything running smoothly. He’s also very kind and respectful to guests, making the experience even better. Definitely someone you can count on. My server kassem was really nice as well, and even waited patiently and helped me out with the menu while ordering, Definitely an amazing experience.“

“The great hospitality and customer service of the staff made us feel welcomed. The Lamb Shank was delicious and the atmosphere was inviting with great pictures of Afghanistan and a very clean restaurant. We will come here again.“

“Thoroughly enjoyed a romantic date night with my husband here. The flower cover entrance is absolutely beautiful. Perfect lighting throughout. Even the bathrooms are stunning. Drinks were on point, our server, David was awesome. And the food portions were big enough to share and take home. We loved it!“

“Our inaugural visit was last week (September 26). Upon entering, we were immediately and warmly greeted by Yusra. We explained it was our first visit, and she took time to explain the menu to us. The choices were plentiful, and it took a few minutes to decide. We all chose the Chicken Shawarma Plate with various sides. Each bite was more delicious than the previous. Once we ordered, our food was prepared fresh by Sam and delivered to our table. Our meals were delicious, plentiful and very good tasting. Yusra checked on us during our meal as she interacted with other guests. The prices were very reasonable, and we left with a promise that next time we are in Alpharetta, we will be back. Keep up the great work and wishing you All the best.“

“For the price ($15–$18), it’s an excellent place that serves good food. The protein options are great, and the hummus is tasty. If you’re ordering a hummus bowl, be mindful that they give a very generous portion of hummus. There is plenty of seating, but most tables accommodate up to four people, so it may not be a good dine-in option for a large group. Atmosphere is pretty casual!“

“Really enjoyed the experience here, food was amazing and delicious 😋, owners are very nice and friendly.
Lamb was cooked perfectly, along with everything else we ordered, chicken, beef, rice, all of it was juicy and seasoned to perfection.
Highly recommend this place to everyone both near and far. After wifey and i spoke with the owners because we had to tell them how hood the food was, we found out that we use to eat at there other spot in NY before they moved, what a small world, and what validation that good food is good food nomatter where you are.“
