Al Qimma Halal Grill & Butchery ملحمة و مشاوي القمة

I don’t even know if I can properly express my first experience a few months ago. My husband and I visited today after seeing the video by @StepOutBuffalo. We knew we had to take the 1 hour 40 minute trip out from Olean. I’m a Lebanese woman and other than my own cooking or my Mother’s, I have no one else to make me authentic dishes that bring me back to my Siti’s table again. We were welcomed in and a beautiful young lady walked us through the entire menu. We ordered a wonderful array of dishes to enjoy as well as some delicious sodas to try too. My first bite of the Fattoush sent me immediately into my Siti’s kitchen in 1997. I sat at the table and cried. The salad was absolutely delicious but more so sent me down memory lane and just brought back wonderful memories of holiday meals surrounded by cousins, aunts, uncles, Siti and Ghidi. My husband had to console me 3 times during the meal. The fried Kibbeh was delicious and even more so when we added the fresh hummus to it!!!! This was the absolute best hummus I’ve ever had!!!! We had the chicken shawarma plate and it was wonderful!!!! So flavorful! The rice was fantastic, the chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was full of flavor! I personally could have used a little less sauce but it was still fantastic! Next time we will get it in the wrap so my husband can get it spicy and I will get it original ♥️ This time we got it as the platter and got the spice on the side 😊 We tried the Arayes and it was DELICIOUS!!!! That was something I’ve never had and loved!!!!! The falafel was wonderful and full of flavor. Not dry like other places. Can’t wait to go back! So thankful for a place that stirs up beautiful memories in my heart and also with my tastebuds! Can’t wait to bring my Mom next!!! ♥️♥️♥️ Thank you for the kindness shown today. The customer service was outstanding and I wish you were closer! We would be daily customers!!!!! Now mind you… we have come back multiple times and they remember us EVERY SINGLE TIME! They treat you like family. They are the kindest, hardworking, loving family you will encounter. They care about the experience you have every single time you enter their establishment. They truly want you to enjoy every single bite! This is worth our drive every single time. Our children even ask for it now! ♥️ I pray for nothing but success for this family and their business!!!!

We had a great dinner! Food was awesome, we had it quickly, and we were stuffed. We can’t wait to go back again.

The food is amazing and you get alot of food for a great price. I highly recommend!

We stopped by at ALQimma Halal Grills by chance and we had the most authentic traditional lamb dish made weekly by the owner. It was the type of taste that was simple unforgettable. We urge anyone wanting to sample authentic halal meals to stop by on Tuesdays weekly and u can thank me later.

I first came in for lunch and ordered the hummus and lamb shawarma with rice. Everything was incredible. The hummus is amazing and is made in the old style and it was served beautifully with plenty of good olive oil. The shawarma was also incredibly delicious, the meat was perfectly seasoned and prepared. The rice has an amazing flavor with delicate hints of warm spices. The second time I went, I ordered dinner take out. I got the lamb chops, mixed grill for 1, hummus, and the fava beans! Incredible, it was all incredible and the lamb chops were especially good; they were served with beautifully grilled vegetables and wonderful sauces. Definitely will be back to try more of the wonderful menu.

Highly recommend- only second time trying chicken shawarma, first time here and was super happy. It’s my new craving, I had the double chicken sandwich combo- super tender chicken and fries were excellent. Customer service was phenomenal. Will be back it’s close to hiking trails that I love to wander.

Upon visiting this restaurant for the third time, I found that my experience had significantly diminished. The establishment’s lack of respect for customers became evident when I expressed dissatisfaction with my meal. Instead of addressing my concerns, the staff became agitated and deflected blame onto me. Before even receiving my food, they demanded a tip.
The meat was noticeably dry and charred, marred by the restaurant’s cooking oil. Despite paying nearly $136 for four people, the quality of the food remained unchanged. When I requested a change, the staff insisted that the dish would taste better than the one before but it tasted the same.
It is important to note that we are familiar with the real taste of the mix grill. However, the staff continued to argue with me, which left me unsatisfied with the experience. I regret bringing my friends to this place, as it did not meet their expectations.

I had some take out from there, and the experience wasn’t great. The menu price and the actual charge was higher for every items I bought. I asked them about the prices but they didn’t do anything about it and on the top some of the desserts were old and hard.
