I was addicted to their chicken shawarma wrap for a while, but the last time I went in, the worker was yelling into his phone loudly in a language I didn't know and barely looked at me as a came to the counter. I said my name and pointed to the sandwich and he nodded and went back to his phone call. I don't love that, probably take a little break but I will have to be back for the sandwich eventually. ;)

Ordered some delivery here and was honestly wowed! I loved everything I ordered!…read more I picked up more than a few things so I could have a few meals including an order of hummus, (fluffy!) pita, a chicken shawarma sandwich, a side of rice (huge!), an order of baba ganoush, and a few meat pies. All the portions were massive and so delicious. The rice alone could be like three meals. I ordered extra pita because I wasn't sure how much would come with the hummus and baba ganoush on their own but that was silly because they were very generous! Though I can't complain about extra pita! It definitely added up a bit on price but because it lasted me for many meals I didn't stress too much about it. I ended up ordering for dinner but they do also have a bangin' lunch menu which has some great sandwich and entree options for a smaller price point, like a sandwich and a side or an entree and two sides for around $13-15.

Al-Reem was great! My husband got a Flamin Hot Chicken Shawarma on Saj with no pickles and he…read morereally really enjoyed it. I got a Falafel Deluxe on Saj made spicy and I really enjoyed it, too, although there was no spice to it in my opinion. There was tons of flavor in both of our wraps! We called ahead and ordered pick up and the service was really nice and the food was ready when we got there. When we walked in we were greeted kindly and the restaurant had a few tables and was clean and inviting inside. The only reason we gave a 4 star review as opposed to a 5 star review is because there was a lot of fuzzy material that we had in and on the outside of our wraps. I'm not sure what it was exactly but we ate our wraps anyways cuz we're not picky. It wasn't hair or anything, just white fuzzy material that we were able to pull off of our food throughout eating it.

Shoutout to my friend and fellow foodie Tiffany for always being down to try a new spot together!…read moreWe did a double date at El Harissa recently and it's my favorite kind of spot - welcoming and warm, with delicious food, and kind, patient employees. The cafe is a few tables inside of the market/deli, with a lot of takeout happening but I love that they offer dining in as they heat everything up for you and it's all presented very nicely. We ordered a ton of things: harissa dip, hummus, pita, spice roasted cauliflower, tabbouleh, lasagne verde, chicken tagine, and gelato. I loved that the menu indicates which menu items have a smaller carbon footprint - and we happened to be dining there on Earth Day! The food was all flavorful and the perfect temperature, which I appreciated. My favorites were the harissa dip, tabbouleh, and the lasagne verde. The chicken tagine was very good, and we enjoyed the leftovers the next day. The spice roasted cauliflower left us wanting it to be a bit more crispy, but it was a nice side. The gelato is delicious - it's made by Palazzolo's but El Harissa provides them with the unique ingredients for their specialty flavors. They were out of some but we got to sample several. We ended up with the roasted pistachio gelato and the apricot peach cardamom. The texture of the gelato was perfectly creamy and the flavors were strong. The market has lots of great items to buy: chips, tunisian olive wood pieces, spices, etc. I'm so glad we sought out this spot and can't wait to get more of their food!

Had the: *Spice Roasted Cauliflower (Crispy cauliflower florets coated and baked in rice and chickpea flour and our North African spice blend. Served with Harissa Dip) Small/1-2 Portion - $11): A little soggier than I'd like but the flavors were good! I also like the harissa dip it came with! *Small Merguez Meatballs (Inspired by the Maghrebi sausage, our spiced lamb and beef meatballs are hand-rolled with onions and herbs and coated with a thick tomato sauce. Served with saffron rice or couscous - small portion came with 3 for $10): For meatballs that included lamb - it wasn't gamey at all and very tasty! I picked cous cous for my side. *Chicken Chermoula (Brined, seared, then baked to capture all of its flavor, our crowd-favorite chicken is juicy and delicious. Served over rice with our herby, garlicky, lemony Chermoula Sauce - Double Portion - $18): Our main entree to share. The lemony chermoula sauce was delish. Chicken was perfectly cooked - not dry at all! Mujadara Rice (A Levantine staple of spiced green lentils and rice. Ours is adorned with carefully caramelized golden onions for a touch of savory-sweetness - small for $8) - SO tasty! I could eat this on its own. Maghrebi Chili (Smoky and spicy. Ground beef seasoned with Harissa spices and slowly cooked with chickpeas, lentils, black beans, peppers, and loads of vegetables - Small/Pint - $9.50) - FIBER CITY! Flavors were really good! We also had SO much gelato - they basically let us sample all of them. ended up with the pistachio and tiramisu. I'll be back - especially for a salad with their wonderful chicken - seems like a great healthy option!

Tried this place for the first time the other day when I ordered it for lunch via DoorDash. Tried…read moreto mix it up and ordered the Kafta combo meal (typically a chicken shawarma gal). The portion was enormous. I chose half rice/half veggies as my side and the chicken lemon soup as a starter. It also came with three small fluffy (and delicious) pieces of pita bread along with a small side of incredible garlic sauce. My takeaways - the kafta was yummy but a tad dry. More dry the next day when I reheated the leftovers. It probably would have been incredible eaten fresh in the restaurant. The rice was good and I liked the texture. The veggies were crisp but slightly too charred for my liking. I was surprised the soup didn't have rice, but the flavors were on point and I really enjoyed it. As previously mentioned, the pita and garlic sauce were superb. I easily could have gotten three meals out of this one entree- an incredible value. I'll definitely try it again!

This place has been on my list of places to check out. Had an errand in the area today around…read morelunchtime so this was a logical stop. I'd planned to eat in, but that doesn' t seem to be what they're set up for these days. There are some tables along the walls, but no one was sitting at them and there were no placemats, silverware etc. set down. The center of the restaurant was wide open and empty, and the whole place had this air of bereftness. I'd swear I'd walked back into late 2020. There were some take-out orders on the counter, and guess those represent the bulk of their business now. The person at the counter seemed surprised when I said I was there to order, not pick up, and confused by taking my order in person. What I ordered was a greek salad w/ chicken. That would be a few minutes, she said, since she would have to go into the kitchen and cook the chicken. Must have been the only one working. I'd expected to to wait a bit, so I sat down at one of the tables along the wall, but had already decided I was going to take the salad to go. The atmosphere was kind of depressing, and I didn't like the picture of me sitting alone in the empty restaurant under the gaze of the lone employee. I'd rather eat alone in my car. Plus, there was an unpleasant rancid smell hanging about. Once I'd parked in a quiet, shady spot and opened the clamshell, my first look at the salad wasn't encouraging. Lettuce seemed tough and a bit dry, lot of outer leaves. Only a light sprinkling of feta, and no pepperoncini. The kalamatas were pale and very hard--it took some pushing to get a fork into one. When I ate one it had little flavor. I didn't eat any more. Two cups of creamy-style greek dressing were tucked into the greens, and these tasted more oily than tangy. And I should menton, I paid $20 for this delightful entree. I get greek salads fairly regularly, and have had them at many diners and middle eastern restaurants, and I can say this was the second worst one I have ever had. The only saving grace to it was the chicken. A heaping portion of it, very tender and lightly seasoned. The chicken is the only reason this place gets two stars instead of one. If the hummus and tabouli here are decent, a few slices of the chicken with those would make a pretty good meal. But in spite of the glowing yelps others have given, I am not at all inclined to return and confirm that.

They have options for even the pickiest eaters *glares at husband*, and the portion sizes are enough to last for days. The staff here are beyond wonderful, and I cannot say enough good about them! Basically, go get yourself some Thai food from them-they won't disappoint you!
