There are two things everyone, and I mean everyone, like: good food, and affordable stuff. Nowadays especially, the combination of these two factors seems to be more drastic by the day. I'm happy to report, however, that this place absolutely defies the trend of good food being out of reach!

Shahrazad offers quite a selection for those who want great middle-eastern food on a tight budget. Ive had their Chicken Shawarma Sandwich, which is phenomenal, multiple times, which is my favorite, but they also have options if meat isn't your forte, for one reason or another.

Affordability, especially in our modern day, is unfortunately waining and ceasing to exist as a concept. No longer is this the case. A filling meal, if you know what you're doing, will run you anywhere from $9-$17, and believe me, one sandwich is enough.

Overall, if you're craving middle-eastern, then look no further!

“I was heartbroken eating the halal food; I couldn’t enjoy it at all because it was cooked so badly.”

Food is not food, my heart is cold from a halal bite

Shahrazad catered my daughter’s birthday party and did an amazing job. Mohammad personally called me on his day off to discuss my order and clearly made sure that everything was perfect the day of. They included a ton of delicious food for a very reasonable price, and the only downside was that there were barely any leftovers because it was so delicious. Thanks so much guys!

Delicious!! And the guys working there were super nice

Delicious food, not much for atmosphere, restaurant is clean, easy to find! Very happy to eat Hallal/Kosher while traveling.

The best persian restaurant in MKE next to UWM. Good quality food with reasonable prices. The lunch specials are very good and all kababs are highly recommended.

If you are looking for tough meat, bland rice, and store-bought pita, then this is the place for you!

I ordered a lamb sandwich to go. The meat was so tough it was pretty much inedible. I have never in my life eaten lamb that wasn't tender as can be. This leads me to believe someone doesn't know how to cut against the grain. It didn't help it was also extremely overcooked. I don't eat out often at all and definitely won't return. This was a very disappointing experience 😞

The tahini left much to be desired as well. I was hard pressed to taste any sesame and it was really sweet unlike any I've had in the past

Came here for a quick dinner. It was quick. The shawarma was not bad, but it's wasn't the garlic sauce I've had at other sister establishments. It was very strong and overtook the sandwich.

Nice people, very small portion for the price, food was cold, hair in my food.

Food salty and has horrible presentation! They put everything in metal plate !!! Very small portion in the service most of the girls who are there rude and disrespectful, and they literally throw the food on the table in a way makes you feel super uncomfortable It was my first time and definitely I will never go back.

Good value, good food, friendly service, takes UWM dining dollars
