    We have been ordering from them and we finally went to the restaurant. It's my favorite Mediterranean restaurant so far. We ordered several appetizers and different main dishes , everything tasted awesome. We restaurant is gorgeous, they have outdoor seating too. The bar service was amazing, bartenders were so friendly and smiling all the time, but table service was ok, the waitress and busboy seem very serious , they were polite but seems unhappy.

    I tried their Miami spice lunch menu. Service was friendly and efficient. The decor inside was pleasant. I also appreciated being able to park right outside. The food was authentic. The portion sizes were on the small side for Miami standards. My favorite dish was my main. I would recommend this place.

    **Vegetarian Friendly** Very stunning interior, with the indoors brought inside. They have some outdoor seating but majority is inside. I love a good tapas style restaurant to do family style, it's the best way to taste the entire menu. This place made SUCH a stink about reservations and required a deposit. Only to get there and the restaurant was EMPTY. Our Order: (1) Salatim Trio - no substitution allowed, even though many other yelp reviews said they were able to swap the onion tahini for hummus. My biggest gripe with this dish was their pita allotment. Only one piece for 3 dips, which you presumably will be sharing with multiple people. (2) Falafel - crispy, lacked flavor (3) Crispy Zucchini Blossom - It was crispy and paired well with the stracciatella (4) Crunchy Cauliflower - Crispy and had a delicious sauce (5) Tahini Hummus - not good, needed salt and apparently they didn't have any to bring to the table (no pita included) (6) Pan Roasted Halloumi - V had a soft yet crispy texture and paired well with the honey and pistachios (7) Za'atar Hand-Cut Fries - don't call them za'atar fries because there was barely any seasoning or flavor. (8) Harif - We asked for spicy sauce and this is what they brought us. Didn't tell us it was a menu item, and would be a charge. Was a disappointment because it wasn't spicy, but did have good flavors. My biggest complaint here is the pita allocation. Yes, the pita was hot and soft, but didn't even provide pita with the appropriate dishes. The server was not helpful in answering menu questions, however the food did come out quickly. The service staff tried to clear the table multiple times when we were still eating the food. Overall, overpriced for the service and quality of off, you're better off skipping this place and going to the similar more popular restaurant next door.

    Food: delicious Service: very nice and attentive Ambiance: relaxing and pretty, a bit crowded and too loud for my taste but nice Plus: they are pet friendly

    This place is incredible - now I can't speak to the decor because I ordered delivery, but I've never had a chicken schnitzel sandwich like that in my life. also the salad and cous cous - all were fantastic. This is now a goto for me whenever I head over to FL (or tell fam to go to). And I think I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the pita! made my own sandwiches with pita and the chicken and salad! Really pumped to have found such a spot

    I visited Abbale during Miami Spice and loved the menu options. The Aventura location is beautiful. The decor and ambience are great. The service was amazing! Our servers were super kind and attentive. I ordered the Moroccan cigars, the branzino and the affogato. Everything was so delicious!

    Stopped by here for lunch today. It's close to the Brightline Train. It's best to share at Israeli restaurants like this. To start, we ordered the bubbly Za'atar Laffa bread with tahini hummus--a nice crunch to pick up the creamy hummus. We shared the Halloumi cheese and grapefruit salad, with red cabbage, kale, cucumber, and radishes, was a surprising combination that worked beautifully. Other Sides included falafel balls perched atop hummus, artfully arranged to resemble a flower, and roasted cauliflower. Vegans will find plenty to enjoy from the menu. (This is not a kosher restaurant.) At a neighboring table, a burger caught my attention, looking utterly drool-worthy. Cocktails were creative, albeit pricey, especially for the portion size, running $18 to $20 per glass. The pièce de résistance was the dessert: Tahini Soft Serve 'ice cream' topped with shaved halvah and drizzled with date honey, with a crunchy orange zest roll. The flavor combination was next-level. While the unassuming strip mall exterior may not impress, stepping inside reveals a nice ambiance enhanced by Israeli music playing through the sound system, transporting me to Tel Aviv. Abbalei is a must-visit for those craving authentic Israeli flavors.

    Terrible

    Food taste as condiments, no main taste. Super expensive and extremely dirty, full of moho, specially in the restroom. Just see the pictures

    Went before a movie and the waitress was so sweet, she quickly placed our order and made sure the food came out quickly. Everything we ordered was tasty and worth coming back for. I quickly sent the photos to my mom and made a reservation for her to come with my aunt the next day. The moroccan fish with the couscous made me feeling like i was eating at my childhood best friends house whose mom is moroccan!!! its insane how well these dishes are made and how quickly they get to the table. The portions are perfect to share! Im so excited to be back, definitely a hit.

    This is a MUST try. Girlies and I had a 6:30 reservation for 8 and got there 15 min early and was seated promptly. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Our waitress was vivían who very attentive and prompt. We ordered several apps including pistachio and feta , falafel , olive and pickles, lamb cigars and all VERY TASTY. The fresh bread with fresh roasted garlic was insane! DELISH! Mains included and crispy outside tender inside flavored branzino ... we will def be back!

    I have only ordered via Uber eats but it's been consistent each time and it is so fresh and delicious!! They also have BOGO on Uber eats as well. I've had the tahini platter and chicken schnitzel and the pairings in the dish go fantastic together and the chicken has been prepared just right with crispy breading. The fresh pickled vegetables and salad with green tahini dressing is so refreshing! I would highly recommend and would love to try the restaurant as well as the ambiance looks beautiful.

    Food was delicious. Very good presentation and wonderful delightful tastes. I wish I had taken a picture of the dessert. Wonderful flan textured coconut was sublime.

    It was a great experience. It's definitely a restaurant if you want to really treat yourself. The decor was so nice, servers especially Nicole very attentive & of course food absolutely delicious. Just a little advice be careful with the "add ons" even with the Miami Spice Menu. It can turn out pretty pricy...'seriously'.

    We've been hitting up Mediterranean restaurants like nobody's business on this leg of our spring…read morebreak, in part because of our proximity to many, and in part because my progeny and I are currently obsessed with babaganoush in its many variations. For this particular dinner, we were also focused on finding a truly vegetarian friendly restaurant where we could take our dear friends. Kabobji was a wonderful choice for vegetarians, omnivores, and carnivores alike. It's a large restaurant with plenty of booths and large tables for gathering with friends and family. Someone I suspect to be an owner was working hard alongside his wait staff and displayed a sense of genuine hospitality. Above all, the restaurant has a rock solid kitchen. The falafel ($13.99 / 5 pieces) here were ****STELLAR****!!! They're shaped like Indian medu vada (fried with a hole in the middle), probably for the same reason: to allow as much of the surface to fry to that perfect golden crisp as possible. And Kabobji's falafel were, in fact, awesomely crisp and well textured, made from soaked chickpeas in the traditional style, perfectly sized, nuanced and subtle in flavor -- some of the best we can remember having. (For reference, we love Nish Nush and Tanoreen for falafel in NYC -- and I think our neighborhood must be one of the major international epicenters for falafel.) Also excellent: the baba ghannouj ($10.99 for the small size), just a bit chunky, enriched with a lot of tahini, a moderate amount of garlic, a touch of lemon. This is how we like to make it at home. The vegetable ghallaba platter ($20.99) was simply made with thinly sliced onions and bell peppers, a small amount of zucchini, I think, and a touch of tomato. I would've loved to have had a spritz of lemon or sprinkle of sumac for a more acidic component, perhaps a little less onion. Note that this dish works better as a main course when accompanied by something protein-y like hummus, but it was pleasant to eat alongside our other orders. A convive, who went with the mixed shawarma platter ($27.99), found it to be a generous portion size and enjoyed it, especially with a side of well composed fattoush salad (+$5.99 to upgrade). Beef shish kebab ($14.99) and lamb shawarma ($15.99) wraps were both excellent and moist, a good balance of protein and vegetable. I didn't try them, but the "cheese pies" ($12.99) turned out to be pitas covered with a large amount of melty white cheese that some young children might enjoy as pizza. (Mine probably would've found them to be "too cheesy," but they're mutants.) They came three to an order. When you dine in, they bring a big basket of warm pita / pida to the table -- quite a generous touch!! I think it's house made and of course went beautifully with our food. Bottom line: GREAT FALAFEL! Great, low-key, family-friendly vibe. Good for vegetarians and non-vegs. Go.

Because we had a large group, we ordered two veggie mezzas for the table. They come with grape leaves, baba ghannouj, and hummus, which makes them perfect for sharing. And the unlimited pita bread is always a win. The salad, so refreshing. The Lebanese cheese rolls are also amazing. Some of us switched it up and tried the spicy fish, sautéed shrimp, and the mixed shawarma platter. No regrets. The fish was so flavorful and the perfect size. LollllpThe rest of us stuck to the kabobs and lamb, which are consistently a safe bet. The space is great too. The huge windows give you beautiful lighting, and they have seating for large parties that still feels more private. We'll definitely be back.

The interior is clean and nicely decorated, with nice lamps along with clean tables and chairs. They also have outdoor seating through the breezeway. The staff were really friendly. The person who seemed to be the owner personally checked on us multiple times, and offered nice suggestions for entrees based on our tastes. The other servers as well were really nice too. My favorites of the entire meal were the manti (Turkish dumplings) and the chicken soup. The manti were small beef dumplings served in a delicious tangy yogurt sauce with some sort of spicy oil on top. They were very filling. The chicken soup was rich, with chicken, carrots, celery and parsley. It had a nice lemon note as well. The entrees - the kabab and the guvec - were hearty and had good flavor. The guvec was really hot (temp wise) because of the clay pot. Kunefe rounded out the meal. Could have used a bit more nuts but otherwise great. Great little spot for dinner!

    Well I accidentally came here. Was headed to Hummus Achla and noticed this place across the street…read morewhich is called "Falafal Achla". I assumed this was owned by the same people. I decided to go to the "Falafal" version of the "Achla" empire because it looked newer from the outside. Before I get into this review I'd like to say I risked my life for a falafal, by trying to cross Hallandale on foot. Y'all need some crosswalks my Miami people. But I was still light on my feet (pre-falafal) so was able to play live Frogger like a G. On to the food. I had a falafal sandwich. What's very nice is the owner literally scoops fresh falafal into balls and fries them up on the spot. The result is a moist falafal that's still lightly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The falafal is a bit hard to eat and it's messy, from the huge dollop of tahina sauce that dresses the top of the sandwich. But I like saucy food so that's not a problem for me, plus I was impressed the pita held up all the way until the end of my meal. Wow. When I make this at home my pita turns into a soggy and ripped mess every. single. time. Inside the (very fresh) pita is falafal of course, Israeli salad, and hummus. What could have make this better? Something tangy or sour to to play against the other flavors. I would have enjoyed a pickle of some sort in there. This one falafal filled me up real good and I was starving. And for less than $8 that's a good deal these days. I have no doubt this food is authentic. The owner is Israeli and looks like he's been working with falafal since back in the day. And the restaurant itself is very new, clean, and nice looking. Why not check it out? Just look both ways before crossing the street, and never, never ever, try running across Hallandale with a stomach full of falafal. (I was between 4 and 5 stars and with a few more choices for toppings I think this would a slam dunk 5-star. But Yelp doesn't allow 4.5 stars and with room for improvement I can't give 5 stars.)
