Middle Eastern Restaurants in Portland, OR

“Fantastic food! Delicious!! I absolutely love the food here“

“Tusk is great. Especially for a nice date night. The food is exquisite and the service is AMAZING.“

“Cedo's is amazing. The service is quick and friendly and the portions are *huge*. Never in my life have I had such tender falafel, and their hummus is the star of the show. Don't miss the gyro, either, which is perfect sandwiched between pita with a generous heap of hummus.
Don't miss Cedo's!“

“We drove in for the blazers game and had to make a few pit stops in this area. We were so hungry and didn’t know what to eat but let me tell you, all three of us. (My husband, daughter and I) were so happy to have tried this place. They took their time making our plates to perfection. The flavor, size and everything just amazing. Don’t sleep on this place, give it try!“

“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.“

“Delicious neighborhood spot!!!“

“This is such a fun place! the owner and staff made my daughter and I feel very welcome, including her Med alert dog. Their food was tasty and the Bellydancing show was great fun and very entertaining. The place was packed but yet they managed to serve everyone with a big smile. Thank you Aladdin's Cafe. I will definitely be back.“

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

“Delicious. Syrian/Lebanese - the flavors were smoother/softer than I’m used to. The pita was soft, closer to a fluffy flour tortilla, and the sandwiches we had that came in a pita were actually wrapped in a trifolded pita and pressed like a panini. The felafel were big and delicious. The baklava was in a orange blossom syrup and was perfect. The service was personable and on point. It’s on an active block of N Williams, so it’s a fun area to walk around before/after. Highly recommended.“

“Excellent food at an excellent price. Generous servings“

“came here as my first stop to eat in PDX and it was great! the gluten free pita was better than I could make at home, service was warm, and the environment was quiet- which was exactly what I was looking for! I ordered the Beef Arwarma and Falafel appetizer. 10/10 Portions are HUGE. Will definitely be coming back on my next trip to PDX.“

“Food good [Original] Food good“

“Is this place still open? Hours seem to be inconsistent. I don't live nearby anymore so I go by when I'm in the area, but have not caught it open in months despite being there during posted business hours. It's so good, I miss it“

“Very affordable, delicious food and great, friendly service! ❤️❤️😍😍“

“I recently attended an event catered by Kabob and was delighted by the variety and quality of the dishes they provided. The choices I made were all vegetarian, but from the comments I over heard everyone enjoyed their non-vegetarian meals as much as I did my plant based one.“

“Always looking for healthy restaurants and this one was great! Had the vegetarian Thai bowl with brown rice and tofu. Washed it down with a non alcoholic Heck beer.

Everything was lovely, portion size was perfect, cost was fair, service was top notch. Most definitely will be back.“

“Sincerely impressed, I will recommend to anyone visiting“

“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.“

“So disappointed... That I didn't know about this place sooner!! Last night my husband told me he had NEVER eaten a gyro. I knew I had to correct this immediately. So, I started looking for gyros near me. Now, since he's never tried one, I didn't want him to have a bad first experience that would put him off of them forever since I enjoy them so much. I chose this establishment based on very high google reviews (5 stars) and because it's so close to where we live (5 mins). This place has gone beyond expectations! The food is amazing! Perfect blend of delicious spices and ingredients. HUGE amount of food. It was so delicious that I scarfed it down so fast I got sauce up my nose. I'm so happy that we found this little gem. We will be eating here regularly from now on. Thank you, Gyro Grill Kabob!!! ❣️“

“I highly recommend Pita Giovanni, Gargantuan gyros overflowing with succulent lamb and a vibrant medley of veggies. Falafel were flavor-bombs, each bite a symphony of crispy exterior and tender heart.“

“Most delicious gyros in our area! The falafels are fresh and amazing. Pitas and samosas are made to order and absolutely to die for. Every time we come here we are greeted with fantastic customer service, kindness, and authentic food. Highly recommend!“

“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 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!“

“I love the food here it’s so good and the people working there are amazing and very nice and generous. Their portions are great and they give you your moneys worth. I recommend getting one of everything because everything looks and tastes so good! Love it so much!🥙“

“Don’t miss this yummy cart in the back corner! If you like a lot of sauces, this is your place. I got the lamb plate and it came with hummus, tzaziki and two other sauces. They have gluten free pita too. It was a lot of food too. And there’s some tables to eat at.

Dietary restrictions: GF pita“

“We pick up take out from here at least once a month. It is always fast and good quality with a large serving sizes. Their chicken shawarma and lamb gyros are my favorites among all the other gyro restaurants in the area. Staff was helpful for dietary restrictions. They have Arabic and Greek style pita bread, which both are good. It is in a strip mall so not much atmosphere but the food makes up for it. My kids really like the chicken shawarma and it is so easy for a quick dinner.“

“Best gyros around hands down! And the home made salads and baklava are amazing!“

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