I love Ammer's! It adds diversity to Calhoun. The inside is clean and the place is kind of big. The Mediterranean food is delicious with huge portions for a fair price. It was very fresh! My favorite meal is the chicken and steak with rice. It comes with dipping sauce, rice, falafel, hummus, and a fresh vegetable salad. They offer a buffet with a big selection of Country and Mediterranean food. The buffet itself is awesome. The location is not far from the exit on 53 with plenty of parking. I like that Ameer's is not a corporate chain. the owner and his son have been there each time we have gone it and have been very helpful and friendly. This is a great place if you like country food or Mediterranean food!! read more

Awesome food and friendly service! My favorites are the tabbouleh salad, Lebanese salad, and hummus. The owner/chef's son is friendly and professional. read more

Best in Calhoun!!! Yummy! I know this place may seem foreign to many of the locals, but you really must try the shawarma plates and the kebabs. It's delicious and much healthier than many of the more normal local places. The owner is a friendly guy, if you want suggestions he is happy to make them as well. I should have taken more food pictures but I was too hungry and forgot... Once you start eating good food you start feeling better too! What are you waiting for? Get to Ameer's and feed your inner animal! read more

When traveling it's always nice to fine a delicious tasting place to stop that's clean and friendly. They had vegan options. They also have outside eating too. I like to find healthy places to eat and Mediterranean food is at top of my list. If only I could find someone to take me to some Mediterranean counties for an eating tour, what a delicious friendship that would make. read more

I was actually going to pop in Checkers for a quick fish sandwich and fries, but saw Ameer's signage and pulled around. I was met promptly by a smiling cashier and then Ameer came to the counter. I ordered the combo #1 with all beef and sat down. In just a few short minutes I was served the beautiful food you see in the picture. Everything was fresh, the meat was tender and cooked perfectly. The pita bread was nice and hot. Moving on the the falafel, it is the best I've ever eaten. Most falafel is dense and tasteless. This was moist and you could taste all the herbs and seasoning. The hummus was not gritty one bit. It was incredibly smooth. The fresh vegetables made a nice accoutrement to this meal. If you are visiting or driving through Calhoun, this is a must eat restaurant! The place is extremely clean, nice employees, and Owner. The food steals the show here. Highly recommend. read more

Ameer’s Mediterranean Grill - #1 combo. It comes with a drink. Delicious! - Mediterranean Near Me - Calhoun, Georgia

Try not to make the mistake of judging the food by the exterior of the restaurant. You have to enter to see it's a different experience. Apart from the friendly Georgian service the main attraction is the food. Not a lot of ambiance or interior decoration but authentic middle eastern food with a lot of veggie options. I did take outs and everyone at the picnic wanted to know where the food came from. read more

love the food, been a fan and will continue to be so but if your out of packaging options, please just say, " No soup for you". lentil soup in a salad container? read more

Ameer’s Mediterranean Grill - Mediterranean Near Me - Calhoun, Georgia

Repurposed place in Calhoun, nicely redone interior and large outdoor seating area. Friendly staff that could quickly answer questions about the food for my friend. Grabbed the falafel sandwich and a drink. Falafel was tasty, sauce was above average, but the bread was just ok. Fries were a bit greasy. Overall good food, a little pricey for this market but I will probably go back. read more

Ameer's is a delightful surprise in this area. We were traveling passing through and did not want the same old fast food unhealthy choices. As soon as we saw his Mediterranean menu we had to try it. The food was right on! We had the mixed grill and beet salad. True to its roots but adjusted a little for American taste. For example the Kofta kebab was not as spicy as I am used to. I would know as I am from the area of origin. The service was pleasant and delightful. The owner came to greet us and it is pleasant talking to him. It is a perfect stop off of exit 312 on I-75. Well done Ameer. read more

Rebecca was very helpful and caring. She met us at the door and told us that they were closed but I told her that we spoke to the owner Sami thru yelp msgs and he said that they were open until 10, it was only 9:23 pm. She told me that they had 2 locations and that the other location closed at 10 but this one closed at 9. She immediately apologized for the misunderstanding and offered us a few things that were still available. Zyad was in the back and prepared our order and came out to speak with us also. They were very appreciative of our business and we thanked them for taking care of us even after they closed. We had the lamb shank and it came with salad, bread and veggies. We also got some falafel with baba ganoush. It was all fresh and tasted excellent! The meat was tender and seasoned perfectly, the salad was fresh and crisp. Everything turned out great and thanks to Rebecca, she saved the evening for us! Looking forward to coming back someday when I am in the area. read more

Try the beet salad, it's the best I have had in my life. The garlic dipping sauce is worth every second you have it. Get extra, you won't regret it. read more

We had chicken kabob & chicken schitzel. It was all so good. The kabobs came with dipping sauce -- either garlic which was especially good & tzatiki. Also on the combination plate was felafel which was really good. Actually the entire meal was delicious, the service was good & friendly. And be sure to try the baklava made with pistachios. read more

Good food and service. Ambiance is ok but, strip mall restaurant feel. We shared a tilapia dish that was very tasty and filled us both. We will come back again as it offers the only good Mediterranean food in the Calhoun area. A new local favorite. Prices are reasonable too. read more

We came here for my brother's birthday dinner, and decided to do the buffet. All of the people who worked there were kind, especially the (probably) owner! The food options were a mix of American and Mediterranean and all of the things I tried, (Fried chicken, macaroni, fries, banana pudding, and cranberry sauce), were all pretty good, though the food was a bit cold to my liking. One thing that I'd like to point out is the Banana pudding, it tasted very different to 'typical' banana pudding, but it was a very pleasant taste! Overall the atmosphere was nice and it wasn't packed at all. It's definitely worth the try if you leave around this area. read more

Ameers is gone. Now country Buffett. I recommend they turn on the warming tables if they are doing buffet. YUCK!!

*FALSE ADVERTISING* There's no where on the description or picture that states the Chicken Kabob comes as a sandwich or even that it comes with fries. The frustration of calling the restaurant to address they're mistake and for them to say they cannot do anything about it is completely absurd! Needless to say this plate went straight to the trash. Take your money somewhere else. read more

Ameer’s Mediterranean Grill - Ordered a chicken kabob and got a sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Calhoun, Georgia

Well, If you are not from the Middle East then you'll love the food. But if you are, you will notice that the tabboule needs a lot of adjustments. Shawarma's spices is not even close to the real taste. Good luck in the future. read more

Ameer's Mediterranean Grill is so delicious! The restaurant is conveniently located right off of Interstate I-75! The restaurant has a large outdoor dining area and lots of room and tables inside! Restaurant staff is very friendly and helpful! The interior is nice and very clean! The food is amazing! We started with Falafel, Hummus, Baba Ganoush and Pita and it was so delicious! The combo meals are an excellent choice! Combos include Arabic rice, two falafel, hummus, Lebanese salad, pita and a fountain drink! Combo #1 and #2 are our favorite! Love the lamb, the chicken shawarma and chicken kabob! The Lebanese Salad is magnificent, it's so full of fresh flavor! read more

The falafel and hummus were perfect. The pita was light and fluffy. However; the baba ganoush, not so much. I don't think there was any tahini in the baba ganoush. It wasn't creamy at all, but the flavor was fine. The tabouli had large diced onion which I did not care for. The dice was way too big. My son had the beef and lamb shawarma which he devoured and loved every bite. The lentil soup wasn't very flavorful. The baklava was old. The filo had no crispiness at all. Could only eat three bites, so sweet. The servings were large. read more

Nice cozy space, fast service, and friendly staff. My wife and I ordered the beef and lamb Shawarma. It was out in just a matter of minutes. My only complaint is a little too much seasoning on the French fries, and parts of the flat bread was a little hard. read more

While driving back to Indiana, we discovered this jewel! What a delightful surprise! Incredibly friendly staff, super clean facility and some of the most authentic flavor filled Middle Eastern food this side of Jerusalem! Fantastic!!!!! read more

Overall, not half bad. Had the buffet and its what you would expect. The service was great. Would recommend

Food was delish. Wife eats veggies only. Lots of choices. She recommends sampler plate. Boy and I eat dead animals. Lamb and beef was spot on!Service was fast. Place was very very clean!! We will return! read more

Really great food. The owner is so nice and talkative, made the whole visit a great experience. We got the combo 1, 2 and 4 and the shawarma is amazing. Gotta try the Arabic coffee too! If you've never had Mediterranean food, try this place out. If you have, come here anyway read more

Travel long hours with children , and found this great restaurant! Very clean , very good FOOD, great staff from cashier to The owner presume, very friendly and humble. I will definitely recommend, even if you just travel easy to get to it off the highway ! Thanks everyone for great food ! read more

I tried combo #1, but wish I had just went with the chicken only, which tasted yummy and was tender. The beef was tender too and accentuated by the sweet sauce that was served on the side. I enjoyed the other sides on the plate too, such as the falafel, rice and hummus. The salad is so fresh! They also have bottled cokes! My kid said give them 5 stars because the food is good and the staff are friendly and nice. read more

Ameer’s Mediterranean Grill - We ate outside and it was beautiful and a nice spot to view a little of the town. - Mediterranean Near Me - Calhoun, Georgia

I've been trying to deal with these guys for two weeks now. They charged me twice for my order. The original order was placed via Yelp/ Grubhub. But when I picked it up, the owner said the Grubhub charge had not gone through, and I needed to pay again. Then I got home and found I was charged twice. The owner seemed willing to help, but after providing him with all documentation that I was charged twice, he stopped responding or answering my calls. This is so dishonest! What else is he up to? Stay away from this business! He has shown willingness to take advantage of customers, and you may be next. read more

Incredible food! Best Mediterranean restaurant I've ever had. We moved to Georgia from California 3 years ago, and this is the best restaurant we've had since being here. read more

Best local restaurant in Calhoun. The service is great and the food is exceptional. I've tried something new each time and have never been disappointed. This particular time I got the chicken kabob dinner (see image) and I think it's my new favorite. Highly recommend! read more

I really wish I had thought to take a photo of the food! This place was awesome! Sa'id was super helpful and uses some really fresh ingredients! He makes new our favorite tabouli. Falafel was crisp and flavorful. I don't know what the garlic sauce was... but it was great on the falafel lol. Chicken Schwarma was well seasoned and juicy. Had a little hummus too. We will definitely be back. This might be our favorite stop in Calhoun now. read more

Great, friendly, attentive service. Food (lamb pita, hummus, grape leaves) was delicious! Their outside covered and lit patio worked great for us meeting our daughter with her new puppy. We will definitely be back meet up here again and have dinner together, especially as it gets warmer. read more

OMA!!! THIS PLACE! I actually stopped to shop at the Calhoun outlets (as I am wont), and got a little peckish. A quick jot over to Yelp led me here. They need to open up a satellite in a bigger city - they would NEVER be able to close. I had Combo #1 (no spoilers - just trust me!!!!) read more

So good! I grew up in Israel and this place was one of the best Mediterranean restaurants I've ever had. The pita was fluffy and amazing, falafel was perfect, rice pilaf perfect, kafta was perfectly flavored even if a C little dry (we got carry out right before they closed), garlic sauce was fantastic too. Get it!!! read more

Probably eaten there 10 times, and, since the pandemic, had food delivered another 10 times. Sometimes really good: Lots of food for the price. The chicken schnitzel can be outstanding, though sometimes the fried topping is soft and wet. Lebanese salad is excellent. Chicken Msahab is very good. New baclava recipe is unsatisfactory - the filling is great, but no filo dough? read more

So delicious. All freshly prepared, including hummus and pita. We each ordered a combo in order to try a bit of everything. Large portions so we were both way too full after both cleaning our plates. Ha! Will select a smaller plate next time. Chicken schwarma was my favorite, but the falafel as the best I've ever had. Hummus so smooth with a little pocket of olive oil. Yum. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

Amazing! Love this place. And in Calhoun?!?!? So glad there is something more than BBQ and Mexican. Yay! The service was great. The restaurant was clean and felt new. It was not freezing, like so many other places (thank you). Friendliest server and owner (thank you!). This place is a little hidden, just off the main drag by one building, but basically right across the street from Starbucks. Now the food: ummmm...This foodie is in love! The falafel was fresh. The sauces were delish. The Lebanese salad was perfect. The pita bread was fluffy and thick (best ever!). The baklava was completely moist and easy to eat. At other places baklava is served too cold and you need a knife to eat it. Not here, the baklava was soft! We drove quite a distance to get here...and we will again...soon! read more

Excellent service and food! The shrimp was a tad salty but overall the food was amazingly fresh and delicious. My husband had the fried snapper and it was a whole fish! The pita he said was wonderful. The hummus amazing! We ordered falafel and hummus for the next day lunch as we will be traveling and will eat as we drive. Great place, clean and friendly! I highly recommend Ameer's! read more
