Middle Eastern Restaurants in Buffalo, NY

“My first visit was today, but it won’t be my last. Delicious shawarma! Thanks.“

“This place is absolutely delicious. Their lamb haneeth is one of a kind and they truly have some of the best white rice. The owner is very sweet as well. If you want to experience something different in Buffalo, Shibam is the place to go! I will be coming back to try their chicken next time.“

“I have been here multiple times and the food is always AMAZING. I will recommend this place through and through, no matter what I get I love. The atmosphere is good and you can see other patrons enjoying their food, never any complaints. Absolutely delicious!!!“

“Wow, their shwarma is just amazing. I heard good stuff about their chicken shwarma, and it was great, but I enjoyed the mixed one more. Their French fries were superb, too. People working their was the best and always had a smile on their face. The front guy was very nice and friendly.“

“Great place to shop! A huge variety of items that cover East Asian, West Asian, Middle Eastern and African cuisines. I found exotic ingredients and products I never saw before. The produce is fresh and varied. I found fresh green almonds, cousa and the baby eggplants that are needed to make makdouss.

The only issue I had was getting help at the bakery counter. I needed to get Baklawa from the glass case and it is only allowed to employees. There is no employee stationed behind the bakery counter. It took long to wait for a cashier to be free to come and help me with getting my Baklawa order pulled out of the case and packaged into a carry-out container. The same situation happened at the meat counter. They have it set up so that there is no pre-packaged zabiha meat. One has NO CHOICE but to wait in line with all the other people, while two men work at a very slow pace to prepare the customer's orders one by one. I could see it was easily going to be a full hour wait for me. They really NEED to start making prepared packs of the zabiha chicken so customers can more quickly grab the pre-butchered meat; then the line would be only for customers who need their meat custom cut. Because of how long the wait was, I gave up and decided to buy zabiha meat elsewhere. I simply didn't have the time for that.
On the happy side, they sell whole legs of goat and sheep and lamb, meats that are difficult to find.“

“I've gone twice now. The first time I got Shawarma, and then I got foul. The foul was new to me and absolutely amazing. The worker was very friendly, even if we needed translators to conversate.“

“Food is amazing , great portions, and must try the Greek potatoes. Prices also very reasonable! Highly recommend 👌“

“Food was awesome. We had fatoush, falafel plate, and something like samosas - fried Phyllo dough like pockets of meat and spices - and Arabic coffee. Service was a little slow, but very friendly. A mix of people were in and out even during the after-lunch hour. There's a little sort of import store inside, which we poked around in but didn't buy anything. I'd like to see them expand the restaurant and start delivery on Skip the Dishes, I'd order every week. We're definitely going back soon.“

“Buffalo Fresh Supermarket is a great place to shop. The store is large, clean, and well-stocked with fresh groceries and essentials. Their selection is great, and the prices are very reasonable.

We also run a store and recently had our website done by AH Glimmer. They did an excellent job — professional, modern, and easy to use. I’d definitely recommend AH Glimmer to Buffalo Fresh if they’re looking to improve their online presence. A website that matches the quality of their in-store experience would make a big difference.“

“Friendly service and tasty food“

“The chicken was great and very reasonably priced.“
