Had a delicious chicken shawarma sandwich meal from here tonight. Simple options for me: hummus and pickles all wrapped up. Really hit the spot. Fries were tasty as well! I would definitely order this again if something else from the menu didn't grab my eye instead!

Drive thru service is amazing. To the lady drive thru worker on 10/28/25 at 400pm: someone please tell her that the bean (?) soup was warm , filling, and had a lovely taste. It had a not overpowering flavor and a great meal starter or appetizer. Mixed with some type of bread I would definitely order it. Thanks so much ! I'll be back for sure when in the area again and am going to recommend it to anyone that asks

Recently, I had an event that I needed catering for, so I reached out to Hakuna Matata because of its strong reputation for fast service and great food and they did not disappoint! I spoke with the manager, Ahmad, who was incredibly kind and humble. He even offered me a complimentary aadas while we talked, which was such a thoughtful gesture.

The restaurant itself feels so cozy and welcoming, and I’m confident I’ll be returning soon. Every guest who had Hakuna Matata at my event spoke highly of the food’s rich flavor and freshness.
I personally came back and ordered a meal specifically the falafel and once again, I was not disappointed. It was so delicious and fluffy that I finished most of them in the car before I even got home 🤣🤣.

I’m so grateful I had the privilege of experiencing Hakuna Matata’s catering, and I truly appreciate Ahmad for helping bring my event to life!

I am from Dubai and for a lot of time I wanted the pure Arabic taste and I just drove to this Arabic restaurant and I am not gonna lie the taste is so good and it’s pure Arabic taste and they have all different kinds of varieties of Arabic foods and this is the best Arabic restaurant if you want to experience pure Arabic level of taste.

This place is truly a treasure! The food is always delicious. We love the chicken and steak shawerma, always cooked too perfect. The flavors are impeccable. The lentil soup is so delicious. The fries are perfectly seasoned. Service is great! Definitely recommend.
