“A nice place and the food is delicious they have and the staff there are nice people fresh food every day and clean something indescribable Thank you guys“

“My husband and I had an amazing dinner experience at Autre Monde! Exceptional service, excellent food, and delicious desert! Cannot wait to come back!“

“Where do I even begin? The pita? Perfect texture and taste. The cherry tomatoes? Obviously fresh, juicy, and sourced from a great farm. The romain? Plentiful and CRISP. The Dill and Taziki sauce? Also VERY fresh, has a citrus kick somewhere, and seems to be made fresh as well. Because it doesn't taste like a store bought sauce filled with preservatives. The hummus? That might actually be where the citrus is from. However, the hummus is not overly salty! You can actually taste the Chickpeas and they use good ingredients as well as olive oil for the hummus too! The chicken? Is in NO way shape or form dry and it's actually seasoned! It's juicy and normal is it overcooked. The olives? Brothers and sisters I HATE olives by themselves, rarely on certain foods. But these olives are not overpowering and stealing the flavor profile, it just adds more depth to the flavor bomb of the Greek chicken Pita! The feta? What could be bettah? Seriously though if you can see this picture you should've seen that they don't skip on the feta either. Again the flavor is ALL the way there but not overpowering. While the texture is almost creamy. Probably with assistance from the sauce but still, it's not overly dry! 10/10 Would recommend & I will be back! Now the facility was spotless, the cleanest "fast food" I've ever seen. The staff? Phenomenonal, personable, kind, attentive to details, and downright superstars that make that place run like clockwork! Wooooo wo weeeee wo!!! If you haven't been here then you've got to go!! Moderate prices, exceptional ingredients, lovely staff, and clean facilities(where the staff actually care like the NW Expressway location in OKC). I'm out, ty for listening to my Ted talk! 🫡“

“Had an amazing experience at Jarasa Kabob! The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The kabobs were perfectly grilled, juicy, and well-seasoned, and the portions were generous for the price.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick without feeling rushed. The place itself was clean and comfortable, making it a great spot whether you’re grabbing a casual meal or bringing friends and family.

Definitely one of those spots you leave already planning your next visit. Highly recommend!“

“Went to dinner here with my friend, we had an awesome experience! I've worked in Italian restaurants before and it felt like an authentic Italian experience 🤌 the servers/bartenders were great and guided us in our choices. We got the scallops which were phenomenal! Also had short rib, salmon, and white chocolate creme brulee for dessert. Just wow 🔥 I'm coming back for the branzino, didn't get to try it but I could smell it cooking 🐟“

“I recently visited Arzu Cafe and had a wonderful experience. I ordered the lagman, and it was absolutely delicious. The meat was incredibly soft, tender, and full of flavor. I also tried their manty, and it was just as good—fresh, juicy, and perfectly cooked.

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. The combination of delicious food and a comfortable setting made my visit very enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes. Highly recommend Arzu Cafe to anyone looking for authentic and tasty food!“

“I love the Beef Swarma Entree when you substitute Hummus for the rice. The Cucumber and Tomato salad which comes with it is also excellent. You also get a piece of Pita Bread with the Entree. Also try their Baklava variety pack. Really great selection of different types of Baklava.“

“The best food & Staff very yummy 😋“

“Thank you Sana & Fátima,the food was delicious and your service outstanding!I enjoyed every bite I took from your delicious food.Falafel, chicken shawarm wrap and lentil soup were delicious. Oh and I had dessert I forgot what is called but it was delicious.lol“

“Petra Falafel is my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant in the area. Their chicken shawarma platter is a masterpiece, and the garlic, jalapeno, and habanero sauces are very tasty, be sure to order extras! Their portions are generous, often leaving me with leftovers for at least another full meal. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. We always order for pick up, but they do have a dining area and I believe they are also BYOB. Next time you are craving falafel, baba ghanoush or shawarma give Petra Falafel a try - you will not be disappointed!“

“The best food & Staff very yummy 😋“

“My first time eating lunch at Ema was outstanding. I was meeting a colleague and wasn’t sure what to expect because we had a lot of work to cover. The entire staff was very helpful, courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. We received wonderful service and had a very healthy lunch. The food was great and all our salads were fresh and delicious.“

“Miraj Restaurant is absolutely excellent! The food is flavorful, fresh, and beautifully prepared — every dish tastes authentic and made with care. The portions are generous, and the menu has a great variety of options, so there’s something for everyone.

The staff is warm, attentive, and always makes you feel welcome. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, perfect for both casual meals and special occasions. Overall, Miraj delivers top-quality food and service every time — a definite five-star experience!“

“The food is delicious here and the people who work here are even better. I was eating in yesterday and there was a man who came inside who I believe was asking for work- he was washing windows. The owner or manager said they have a company that does it. So he could not give him the business. The man appeared to be a little unkept and possibly struggling. The owner asked if he was hungry and the man replied yes, he ended up making him fresh food and he left with a bag of food and some water. This interaction was so special and I truly hope their kindness is delivered back to them indefinitely. Please support this local business and kind individuals who make our world a better, softer, kinder place to be in! EAT HERE!“

“Excellent food for dine in and creative, well presented catering service options. Karim worked with me to create a menu that our guests loved.“

“Perfect place to eat a meal or host an event. We just hosted a bridal shower and could not be more pleased with the decor, the food and the service. The staff are very attentive, Definitely worth a visit“

“I really enjoy Mediterranean food and this dish not disappoint. The trio of dips was super tasty and salmon and spinach salad good too and both were plenty to share between two for lunch and arrived to our table quickly. Pricing was reasonable too“

“Had lunch there today and I have to say this is the first time I was disappointed with the service. The food was excellent but that's it. Asked for 2nd drink and never got it. Water was never refilled until we were through eating. When first ordering our wine we had problems. I will continue to eat here and hopefully this is a one time occurrence.“

“We had an amazing experience this evening for a birthday dinner, everything was amazing and we will be back for more. The staff was wonderful and we had some moments to talk more with the manager and learn history behind dishes and about Morocco. For some reason pictures won’t attach but everything was beautifully presented and so flavorful!“

“Great selection of American & Mediterranean. Falafel plate & Kefta kabobs were fantastic & prepared fresh. Unexpected array of dessert options, as well. Win!“
