Middle Eastern Restaurants near Overland Park, KS

“Came in with my girlfriend passing through town, came in and was told they have a Sunday buffet and it was absolutely fantastic. Every thing I had was great. Their baba ganoush was the best I've ever had and their Kabobs were absolutely fantastic. Very friendly staff aswell. Can't recommend this enough“

“I think I saw an ad for Yafa Cafe on Facebook. We are always searching for good Mediterranean food, it's hard to find in Kansas City. Seeing Kibbeh on the menu automatically moved them to the top on the list. We really enjoyed our meals and appetizers! The kibbeh was good, the spanakopia was good. All of our meals were good. I really enjoyed the creamy chicken plate. The chicken shawarma was good. Everyone liked the kabobs (chicken and beef). We will definitely be back! The owner and employees were very nice and helpful. Highly recommend!“

“Lunch date with my husband. If you love Mediterranean food I strongly suggest going here. The red pepper humus is the best I’ve ever eaten. The customer service was outstanding! The kabob is so perfectly grilled. Yummy!“

“Was trying to get turned around on Metcalf, Dad was in the mood for Greek food. Pulled off into little center area to loop back on 105th… and bam there was this little authentic Greek restaurant. WOW! The food was amazing!!! A great find!“

“Love this place. My Dad lived in Saudi Arabia for 12 years, and this is also his favorite Arabian restaurant that he’s found in the whole US, out of 11 different states we’ve lived in. Great atmosphere, friendly staff. Haven’t been here in over 15 years but our family still talks about this place“

“The hostess and owner were very nice and welcoming. Everything we had was good. We had beef/lamb shawarma with rice, lamb gyro with rice, beef shawarma wrap with fries, mix shawarma with rice (that included beef kofta, shish tawook chicken, & beef shawarna), naan, hummus, & baba ghanouj. The portions were big and as I said earlier, so delicious and the meat so tender! We are from out of town, but we will definitely be back when we visit KC again.“

“We were so hungry when we arrived at Holy Land Cafe. It was late afternoon noon on one of our BRISK winter days. We walked in the door and or welcomed with the aroma of wonderful food coming from the kitchen. We chose to sit in a booth not too far from the entrance. The staff attended to us almost immediately. My husband ordered the garlic chicken dinner and I ordered the falafel sandwich. We both had the lentil soup as the accompaniment to our meal. The soup was served quickly, it was hot and delicious. Just what we needed to warm ourselves up. The food was served very quickly, And it was also delicious. My husband's meal I believe cost $15, And it was a substantial portion of food. The chunks if chicken breast were covered in a garlic and cream sauce I believe with maybe saffron in it, Served with rice, veggies ,and Pita bread. My falafel sandwich was amazing as well. There are 3 things that I judge mediterranean restaurants on one is their hummus the other is their falafel and the third is their pita bread. I combined all 3 things in my sandwich, And I was not disappointed. We couldn't believe we had never been to this restaurant before and we certainly will make sure that we return again. As we were paying for our meal we decided to get the pistachio baklava. They have several varieties of baklava and the pistachio one was a hit. Looking forward to trying the other varieties on another visit.“

“Stumbled across this food truck on 16th n Walnut. I’ve never really had food from a truck before but kiddo was hungry and I thought why not. I AM SO GLAD WE STOPPED!! Never did I think I could get a gyro better than the place we visit every time I go to Florida. It’s not cheap either down there. Managed to drive 15 mins home. I was stunned that our food was still HOT!! Not warm, not kind of warm. Even the fries were HOT! I can go get some and be home in 5 minutes and the fries are always cold. Not this time. They were extra but I would gladly pay for them again! There was enough to share them with 3 ppl. I’m the pic you can see I shared them with my son. To my surprise when I lifted my gyro out, there was even more underneath!! Also, these fries were not those skinny cheap looking ones. They weren’t crinkle nor steak but a cross between those two. And oh they were so good!! Making me want to order just fries now. My gyro was nice and tender. I ordered the beef and lamb. I did order extra tzatziki sauce. It was only a $1.00 because I assumed there would be enough. There’s never enough. Let’s just say I wasted a dollar lol. There was so much sauce, it made it messy to eat but NOT in a bad way. They didn’t try to fill it will vegetables to make it look bigger. It was the right amount of meat and veggies. I don’t know if I’m allowed to put the price. Let’s just say Ive bought a crappy hamburger for more than I paid for it. I could only eat half of it and was happy to eat the rest for lunch. They had other items on the menu if gyro or Greek isn’t your fancy. I got a cheeseburger for my child, ketchup only. They had all the fix’in if you wanted it. Gotta picky eater. I asked him how his sandwich was and he said one of the best he’s had. It wasn’t greasy which was good. And the price I paid for that!?!!! Again, you’d pay more at that crappy Mc place and get a smaller burger. I paid around $26 for both of us to eat. Now a days, that’s the price you pay for one to eat. I don’t know how it stayed hot on the drive home. They did wrap the gyro in foil and laid it on top of the fries. Maybe that’s how. They also used a styrofoam container. Not those clear plastic lid with black bottom ones. The burger was in a nice thick cardboard container too. So I think that’s how everything stayed like it just got off the cook top. I guess you can either drive around dow town to find them or go to their web site to see where they will be. I hope they don’t go further south because I definitely will eat at that truck again!!! (I only mentioned they had other food items if you don’t like greek food. I can not remember what else they had. I think chicken, wraps or course burgers. I wanted to say that I gave my picky eater a good size piece of lamb. I asked “well?” He said it was really good!! ). I don’t think you’d be disappointed in the food nor prices).“

“Great food, great service. It’s home made food. I recommend this place . Excellent !!!“

“Wonderful people, they make you feel so welcome. They made great recommendations and the food was delicious. Check them out. We will definitely be back.“

“I absolutely love Papu’s! The food is always made fresh to order & the quality & pricing can not be beat! The owner Khalid & his staff are amazing!“
