Middle Eastern Restaurants near Beaverton, OR

“I moved here in June of 2024 and I have been struggling to find a good Mediterranean restaurant. Everywhere I looked I would see outrageous prices of $18 for chicken shawarma. I literally couldn’t justify spending that much and not even getting any hummus or pita or anything else with it. But I saw a TikTok where someone reviewed this place and I gave it a shot. I couldn’t have been more pleased! The service was fantastic and he was super nice! The prices were very reasonable and the food was delicious. Finally found some quality, well priced food! Please go support this business!

Vegetarian options: Falafel“

“This place always kills. Came in at noon on a Sunday. Two large gyros and fries. Food was out incredibly fast. Asked for a little more crispy on fries and were perfect. Excellent portions for the money. Got mine spicy and was fantastic. Have had many other gyros around town...these are the best. Had a lovely conversation with the gentleman who took my order. My go-to place for gyros.“

“Food was brilliant. Loved the hummus and everything. This is a tiny gem in the middle of Beaverton. What a treasure to find. Shukran.“

“Great people, really good, authentic food!“

“Great food in a nice atmosphere.“

“Oh my goodness! What an absolutely sweet spot for casual, affordable, and immensely delicious food! I loved the falafel so much that I went back two days in a row. And the owners are the sweetest people, so warm and cute - which makes sense because the whole environment is warm and cute. I am gluten-free and dairy free, and my food needs were accommodated with care and understanding. I can't wait to go back and bring friends!“

“Best hummus, shawarma, gyros, wraps, really everything!!“

“First-timers today. We ordered the Big Lamb Gyro, dolmas and french fries, and are very happy to recommend this place. Portions were large and the food was extremely fresh, but the thing that impressed me and raises Omar’s versions above other similar places was his seasoning. Subtle, not overpowering, but distinctive. Dolmas touched with just enough lemon, gyros well-balanced with tzatziki, hot sauce and some other flavors I couldn’t quite identify, subtle flavoring of the lamb. I was prepared for a pretty standard, ho-hum gyro, but this was much more. Worth a return trip.“

“How I love finding these little gems, especially if it’s food I don’t get to eat too often. Located in the Fred Meyer Shopping Center near NE Cornelius Pass Rd and NE Imbrie Dr, this spot has a Mediterranean/Iraqi styled menu with just enough items to make you want to return and try something different with each visit. So, if you’re ever in the area and feel like something outside of your comfort zone. Give this place a try!

“Each time we have ordered from here it has been amazing. The food is killer. I always get the Chicken Souvlaki with Rice Pilaf. The Baklava Ice cream is also amazing. Highly recommend.“

“Beautiful little restaurant, fantastic friendly staff and oh my goodness... the food is delicious. Had the baba ghanouj, the meat trio, and a nice flight of beers.

Thank you for the warm and friendly service, Ghada. Everything exceeded my expectations, and the recommended dessert was a perfect pair for all the fantastic flavors the main dish brought to the table. (Knafeh is the name of the dessert)

We will definitely be coming back to try more of the dishes.“

“This is an absolute gem. Family run with the loveliest, friendly, engaging people. The food is unbelievable. I cannot imagine there is a better Mediterranean restaurant in Portland-which is saying a lot here. Oh and 100% have the cheesecake! Legitimately the best cheesecake on the planet-order the Royal.

Incredible culinary experience start to finish. .

“We had the spanikopita, chicken shawarma platter, and baklava. The food was extremely flavorful and well-seasoned. The baclava was probably the best version of the dish we have tried anywhere. The atmosphere was casual and pleasant though the door alarm was quite loud and became annoying for those of us sitting by it.“

“The BEST Baklava!!! So fresh and delicious!“

“I had lunch here today and it was so good! I gave my daughter a bite of the kabobs (I got the kabob sampler combo) and she loved it so much, I went back in and ordered another plate so she wouldn't eat all mine! The service was quick and friendly and I was grateful for the excellent recommendations! We will be back often!“

“Food good [Original] Food good“

“Sincerely impressed, I will recommend to anyone visiting“

“I hardly ever eat vegetarian but I ordered a vegetarian chili which was surprisingly good and filling and inordinately cheap at $7 a bowl. The atmosphere was a bit strange as it was a fairly large restaurant with almost nobody there so it felt somewhat deserted and lonely.“

“The food was excellent and made to perfection! The staff were very inviting and so friendly. They treated us like we were family. An extremely pleasant experience. I would definitely recommend this place.“

“I came here with my friend last night and it was bomb. I had the chicken shawarma and it was heavenly, and a huge amount of food. Certainly get what you pay for. I definitely recommend this place and plan on going back to try the Portland burrito and some of the appetizers!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Gyro Bistro, located in SE Portland's new WonderLove, featuring a three-story bar and food cart pod, is a true gem! From the moment you arrive, the welcoming atmosphere and friendly food cart staff set the tone for a fantastic dining experience.

The gyros are absolutely phenomenal, but don't miss out on the baba ghanoush and grape leaves – they are simply to die for! The baba ghanoush is creamy and flavorful, while the grape leaves are perfectly seasoned and tender.

The food is fresh, delicious, and generously portioned. With reasonable prices and top-notch service, Gyro Bistro is a must-visit.

Highly recommended for anyone strolling through SE Portland down the road from OMSI!“

“I don't even know how to put into words how amazing the food is here. This is by far the best gyro in Portland – probably in the entire Northwest. It's exploding with flavor, insanely delicious, and the portion size is excellent – they do not skimp. The price is VERY reasonable and the service is excellent and very friendly as well. The recent revamp into Midtown Beer Garden also turned this into a wonderful, cozy place to enjoy your food. Cannot recommend more highly.“

“Just dropped in for the first time. Got the lamb mezza platter. Amazing! The tabbouleh is wonderfully herbaceous, the falafel is produced in-house and fantastic! Every bite was a wonderful experience of flavor and texture! Full, and very, very, very satisfied. Can't wait for a return visit!“

“I am a big fan of this place, and I think they're one of the highest tier choices available. I often come in and order via Uber Eats. I ordered the chicken shawarma fries earlier this week, and the fries were delivered piping hot and fresh. I also like the panini style chicken shawarma wrap. My girlfriend likes the falafel, grape leaves, and she was very impressed by how big the shawarma salad was.

Overall, this place delivers quality food with fair portions. The food always hits the spot, and I recommend you give this place a try if you're curious.

I don't usually dine in, but I have no qualms with the interior. Everything is very standard for a local restaurant. Everything is clean, and the service is always nice and appreciative of the business.

I always try to make an effort to be a patron at businesses where the staff makes an active effort to engage with their customers.

Vegetarian options: Definitely options for leaf eaters.

Parking: Plenty of space in the plaza for super easy parking.

Kid-friendliness: Very standard for a restaurant.“

“One of my favorites in Metro area since I moved here. Very professional and friendly people. I really do like their foods. Had a great experience ! They have delicious gyros (I love their lamb gyro). The tabouli is amazing as well! Also they have delicious Hummus that I love. If you want to try the Mediterranean food such as gyro , felafel, hummus, and other stuff, do not miss this place!“

“Step aside, flavorless dinners! ?? The delightful E'Njoni cafe has danced its way into my heart with a symphony of Ethiopian delights. Their bountiful veggie feast had me dancing the injera waltz with every scrumptious bite. Who knew ten veggies could tango on my taste buds so harmoniously? ???

The owners are the ultimate culinary matchmakers, pairing kind hospitality with every request, question, and special need. If service were a veggie, they'd be a perfect ten!

Now, let's raise a glass to the gluten-free injera, pride of the menu! ?? Fear not, gluten-sensitive foodies; this menu has your back (and stomach) covered.

Between bites, we marveled at the mesmerizing art pieces gracing the walls. If only every restaurant had such an eclectic gallery to entertain our eyes while our mouths savored the cuisine.

In short, dining at E'Njoni cafe is like attending the most flavorful family reunion ever: welcoming, flavorful, and endlessly delightful. My taste buds give it a well-deserved standing ovation! ???“

“enjoy the gyros I have to eat here every time I come visit my son“
