The exterior of the building is fun and makes me want to explore what they have inside, the food is fantastic and really exudes a traditional home cooked meal. This has become of one of my favorite places to eat and whenever we are in the area we love to pay it a visit. The chicken shawarma is by far my favorite dish but after sharing other items with my family I feel like nothing is a miss. Looking forward to visiting again.

Loved it! The owner was amazing! Super nice and even let us try mint lemonade and the baklava! We have been wanting to go back. Awesome atmosphere, great costumer service and awesome food :)

I had been craving a good Mediterranean place to eat at since I moved back from Arizona and this place did not disappoint. It seemed like it was closed from the outside but the sign said open so I decided to give it a try. This place is a definition of “Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover.” The outside looks ordinary, and basic, but oh my goodness, the interior is BEAUTIFUL. I was really taken aback. The hostesses were really nice and informative; I was a little confused about a menu item but they explained it for me, no issue. Amazing food indeed! Oh and they have booth style seats that charge your phone!

The food was delicious and was the service was great. The food portion was more than enough and at a reasonable price. Highly recommend this place.

The food is good. The interior is nice. The exterior look like they were not open even though they had a big sign stating that they were open. The menu had some items that weren't available. They are in the process of changing the menu. However, I had to base my review on my experience.

Don’t let the dark exterior turn you off...interior takes you there! This is the best Mediterranean restaurant in El Paso! Delicious!!! Priscilla is the best, friendliest host and server! Great vegetarian dishes, and it all tastes homemade!!! Kudos to the chef!!!

If you're into Mediterranean food, I highly recommend you try this place because the food is fantastic. It takes a long time to prepare, but the food is worth the wait. That being said, the reason for such a low star rating is for the service and overall poor management of the restaurant. I've never heard a waitress apologize, act dramatic, and blame the kitchen more in my entire life. If this restaurant properly staffs and manages the front of the house, it will be a hit. However, unfortunately, I recommend you try it soon because I doubt it will be open in three months. You can't blame the cooks when every table is waiting 20 minutes just to receive drinks and have their order taken. Worst service I've ever had.

No prices on the menu. Horrible service. Meat portion was lean. The food was excellent. Hidden gem. I will try one more time before I decide if I would recommend this restaurant. The music was loud and annoying. The building is deceiving. It is a red building with very strange artistry? Looks like a 70's head shop.

Their food is very good, but the three times we've been there, nobody else is. The interior is painted completely black, making for a very dark experience, and there are no prices printed on the menus, making the tab a total crapshoot. Their drink program is very odd, as well.
Large plates, smelled and tasted wonderful had the Saj Chicken. Will be going back to try more stuff.

If you haven't yet tried Marhaba Mediterranean Grill, you're missing out! The pita is freshly made, the hummus - phenomenal! The salad is a meal by itself. Their "cocktails" are delicious with a texture somewhere between a smoothie and a milkshake ? And of course, their Marhaba Chicken ? An entire chicken that is seasoned to perfection and oh-so juicy ? They don't just season the skin. It tastes as if the chicken itself was given a healthy diet of fragrant and delicious spices haha I didn't even taste the char on the skin, which is usually a huge turn off for me. I'll be eating good for the rest of the weekend ?

Amazing food. At first, we didn’t think much of this restaurant. However, once inside, we noticed a few things we liked. For one, it is very clean. The tables are clean and the little sofas are as well. The atmosphere is calm and the design on this restaurant is very simple. It doesn’t feel disorganized to the eye. The menu is understandable, and the food is very delicious. The prices are a bit high, but the portions and flavors make up for it. Highly recommend.
