    I'm a fan of the beef with tahina one, though they sell an overwhelming number of types. As usual, the manakeesh was on point. The staff are very friendly and attentive too.

    Margherita pizza

    My friend and I both spotted this restaurant and decided to stop by one evening after a workout. It's been open a while so the hype seemed to have died down. It wasn't busy but customers were coming in and out. They took over Mod pizza (RIP) and the space looks basically the same. You order at the counter on the side instead of going up to the area where you see ingredients. A bit disorienting at first. Since my friend is vegetarian we chose things to share that she could eat: Margherita pizza, labneh and arugula pizza, and the vegetables and cheese on a Jerusalem bagel. Everything is well presented and tastes fresh. The bagel was the best thing! A nice crunch from the sesame seeds and a nice airy texture from the bread. Really good! Didn't take long to get the food. And if you need to take leftovers home, they have boxes by the condiment counter. I'll be back!

    It's nice to experience a different kind of pizza- A middle eastern version and they have sweet or salty kind. I went with the classic- cheese, tomatoes and pesto. The dough is different from normal pizza dough and doesnt really have a crust. Its soft and thin,but not crispy, taste like a flatbread. And their akkawi cheese taste similar to mozzarella. You can also see them baking it fresh. Go try out their other specialties too.

    Stopped by here for a quick bite before going next door to Qamaria. The staff were friendly and helped answer any questions I had about the menu. There's lots of seating inside and the tables were clean. I ordered the turkey and cheese bagel after seeing a couple of other reviews recommending it and I must say it lived up to the hype! It was huge and definitely worth it for only 12.99. The sesame seeds amplified the flavor of the bread and added a delicate crunch.

    Sfeha with tomatoes

    Service was fast! The space was clean, bright, and well decorated. The staff were quiet, focused, and kind. Food was phenomenal! Super fresh, and very delicious. We got the mixed cheese & veggie Jerusalem bagel; which was basically a love child of a veggie supreme pizza, and the most amazing pillowy bagel I have ever had!! We had the labneh with za'atar: a delicious wood fired flatbread base spread with Za'atar Labneh and finished with an arugula salad. This was a great fresh dish to balance the heavier bagel. Finally we also got the Sfeha with tomato. Rich delicious ground meat on a wood fired flat bread, but surprisingly and delightfully light! We loved this even more when we added chili flakes on top! Finished with an assortment of baklava and left with very happy bellies:)

    "Great experience! The wait time was much shorter than other places, and everything was very clean. The service was friendly and welcoming. The food is amazing--it's definitely become one of my favorite places to eat. I love the vibe here, and I'll definitely be coming back again!"

    Added chicken to the cheese pizza

    This has got to be my absolute favorite pizza place of all time. The employees are always super helpful and nice. The food is an easy 10/10. My favorite is the margherita pizza, I get it every single time!

    The food is absolutely amazing I can see why it's a hit! I gotta come back and try more, they so much stuff to choose from and it's amazing!

    Labneh and vegetables
    Brinda S.

    Yall! A couple weeks ago I tagged along to Qamaria for a business coffee, saw this place moving in and setting up in a former Mod pizza space and was instantly curious! Then today an ad popped up on my socials, so I had to convince the family that we were having a Palestinian dinner. (It didn't take much, honestly.) We ordered the labneh and vegetables, the pepperoni, and the meat and eggs. My goodness was everything delicious! My pepperoni aficionado teen ate every bite except for the one piece I took a bite out of . She did say she'd ask for lighter cheese next time, because it's very generous. (The bread/crust sold her.) The meat and eggs--I could instantly smell the cinnamon in the meat and wanted a nibble or two. I don't even like eggs that are not over medium, but I'd eat these all day. The yolk was punctured at just the right moment that the yolk wasn't chalky or dry. (That's my husband's description.) My labneh and veggies was just pure and simple goodness. The bread was cooled a bit before adding the labneh so it wasn't runny or uneven in temperature. The place was BUSY but well staffed and the counter service ordering and pick up didn't take too long. And honestly, given the price of dinner we pay for other quick service/fast food places, this place is definitely going into a regular rotation. Excellent quality, delicious food.

    I had already ate half !

    I ordered the Turkey Cheese bagel and all I have to saw is wow ! Everything tasted fresh and I love the amount of cheese they put. Prices are also very reasonable- one order of this bagel easily fed two people ! Give it try and you will NOT be disappointed!

    I will say, their ordering process can be a bit confusing mainly due to language barriers and also, it's not like when this was MOD, you simply picked what toppings you wanted right at the counter to build your own. But other than that, the food is very good, and at least they're very transparent with allergens.

    Akkawi cheese is with zaatar

    Al Manakeesh Pizza Place was amazing! The pizza was fresh, tasty, and the crust was perfect. Great service and vibes--I'll definitely be back!

    Really happy to see this staple of little Palestine Bridgeview Illinois (Chicago suburb) open here in Columbus and bring an authentic casual taste of Palestine to central Ohio. If you like "fatayer" or "sfiha" or simply Arabic/Levantine style pies this is the spot. Menu includes pizza pies, labneh, hummus, and many other essential maza . Jerusalem ka'ak dish is a must. pay these guys a visit. You won't regret it.

    What a fun new taste for us on our road trip. The Jerusalem bagel was particularly good. (Although not the best bathroom stop...)

    HUGE seating space! They have room! All the windows, too, letting in all the sunshine…read more This was my first stop after seeing them pop up while searching for lunch. I opted for Tawouk - a seasoned chicken wrap, served with fries, pickles, and a drink (strawberry passionfruit). Tried it spicy - it's a sneaky heat that hit after I was done, but still dry and not too spicy (for me, if you're spicy adverse, don't do it!) I could eat that chicken all day long. It's seasoned so well, that I just wanted MORE. AND you see the racks of the chicken in the kitchen, over the flame! I have no idea how to explain the sauces - savory, not sweet was another reviewer's words and I agree. Put some on the wrap, some on fries, it all goes together. I dig it. It IS a little pricey - but I left full, and craving more of that chicken, that'll bring me back.

    I stopped in for a late lunch/ early dinner on a weekday. It was not very crowded. I had never been…read morein before so I was browsing the menu. The guys behind the counter did not offer any help & seemed annoyed when I asked questions. I ended up ordering a tawouk sandwich meal for $21 & a mixed grill meal for $28. The sandwich chicken was dry even with the sauce. They put the chicken, sauces, pickles & fries inside your lavish & grill it. We could not tell the flavor of the pink sauce? The orange sauce was a bit spicy and the white was garlicy toum which I liked the best. The fries are just battered restaurant wholesale fries- nothing special. I actually would have preferred rice. The mixed grill was tasty, but again dry and for $28 you didn't get much. The mango & strawberry drinks were good. They also add a service fee if paying by credit card. I thought this place was going to be the bomb! There is better Lebanese food in town, especially for the price. I don't think I'll be back.

One single set of shelving down the middle of the store with foods on one side and wine on the other. The perimeter is a deli type counter on one side with the food counter and checkout area in the back. Please believe me when I say be prepared to just look past all that chaos to see the beauty in it. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Yes they do offer suggestions, answer your questions and carry your purchases to your car for you. Who does that nowadays?!? I read a review saying not to skip out on the rosemary sea salt bread so I didn't. I mean the smells and it looked like perfection on the tray so how could I resist!? So glad I didn't. It was warm, soft, flavorful and ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!! I would return for the fresh baked bread alone. We were given samples and we made our selections, paid and had our goodies carried out to the car for us. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. We ended up with a couple varieties of olives, a couple of meatballs and the bread. All fabulous. If you're anywhere near this area and you need some mouthwateringly good food do stop in.
