Middle Eastern Restaurants near Vancouver, WA

“Hands down some of the best and most attentive service.i have had from a restaurant, the food was amazing and the falafel is to die for. Their garlic sauce does not disappoint either. I highly recommend giving these guys a shot next time you crave gyros or middle eastern food. Think I may be a regular now haha.“

“Great people, really good, authentic food!“

“Great food and friendly service“

“We loved all of food that we've ever tried. Each time we try something different because each flavor is so unique and scrumptious. The lamb...so good, and super tender. Very Romantic setting. They treat like you are a VIP.“

“If I could rate this place more than 5 stars, I would! Owners/staff are super nice too! We ordered The hummus with pita, lamb and chicken gyros, chicken humas plate and the round fries- all amazing!“

“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.“

“I was recommended this place by my boss, we come nearby occassionally for an education program across the street. Glad I listened.

Man. I ordered the half and half plate, falafel and gyro. The salad, the hummus, the hotsauce, the salad, the bread, everything. I was humming to myself in an empty dining room in joy. My only negative was eventually running out of food. There is an additional joy of having a meal of components. Building up each bite is actually an underrated, fun experience that adds to the enjoyment of making perfect bites, adding/removing things to notice differences in whats loudest.

Service was kind and delightful, what I could only describe as being wholely invited in to someones kitchen.

This place lifted my mood significantly, 5/5.“

“LOVE SHORBA! I always get the chicken saj, it’s giant and delicious. The owner Omar is the nicest person in the world! He often gives me a cup of free homemade fruit juice to try, or some bits of meat for my dog if he’s with me. Perfect place to grab a bite after hitting the Montavilla bars.“

“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!!!“

“Went here based on recommendations, and I recommend this place for you in return. Scrumptious meal served in sensible portions with reasonable prices. I felt nourished when I left. The food really is delicious and well executed.

In addition to enjoying the meal I had a great conversation with the owner. His Lebanese roots shine through in the food. A nod to his parents for the environment they created running the first iteration of this business that gave him the opportunity to make his own way in the restaurant industry.“

“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.“

“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“

“One of the best and most delicious Arabic restaurants I’ve tried. The food is flavorful, the place is elegant, and the staff are very professional and welcoming. Special thanks to Suleiman for his very kind and classy service. Definitely an experience worth repeating👏🏻“

“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.“

“Sincerely impressed, I will recommend to anyone visiting“

“Sirina, Thank you for the birthday gift certificate yesterday. All the food was delicious!!!!“

“The Gyro House in Southeast Portland is nothing short of fantastic. It was originally recommended to me from a friend and I will admit it is exactly as he said it was. A fantastic inner city restaurant with excellent Mediterranean offerings.
Nothing can be bad when you have chicken. Shawarma.“

“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!“

“If you want to enjoy and eats great food in the town you need to try this place first, and I will recommend the Burger they made. it's #1!!!!“

“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!“
