This place is bomb! I would have to say this is now my and my family's favorite Mediterranean restaurant. It is located in a small plaza but the inside is roomy and cozy. You order at the front and then seat yourself, and the staff were very nice and answered all our questions as there were some new items we were not familiar with. We ordered the combo special plate (one beef and one chicken skewer), shish Taouk (chicken skewers), shakshuka, chicken shawarma plate, veggie combo tapas plate, and homemade lemonade between a family of four. The food took at least 10 minutes to prepare but everything was made fresh. The homemade lemonade was mixed with a ton of mint, and it ended up tasting more minty than lemonadey; I give it a 5 out of 5. Chicken Shwarma - the chicken was the best marinated chicken I've had at a Mediterranean restaurant thus far, and I've gone to many. The salad, rice, and hummus were also very good. 5 out of 5. Shakshuka - The portion was on the smaller side but it was full of flavor and the eggs were perfectly cooked. Came with four pieces of pickle, which paired well with the shakshuka. 5 out of 5. Shish Taouk - This was new to me and the chicken skewer/kabob was seasoned perfectly and juicy off the skewer. Not a hint of dryness whatsoever, and it tasted so good with the tzatziki sauce. 5 out of 5. Veggie Combo Tapas Plate - came with baba ganoush, hummus, tabbouleh, Mediterranean salad, and falafel. Portion great for sharing. Everything tasted delicious and my husband, who struggles with GERD, said he did not have a reaction after eating and of these (especially the hummus). 5 out of 5. The service was great; the employee always checked up on us and got us sauces and drinks. Bathroom was clean, and there were quite a few folks coming in (this is a good sign). We will definitely be coming back! read more

New location for Mediterranean food SW of town. Conveniently located off of the freeway in a plaza with plenty of parking. There's decent amount of seating inside, no outside seating. They are still getting into their groove but it was nice to see that there were repeat customers while I was there. I also met the owner and partner. They were both very friendly and ready to strike up a conversation. I went for lunch on Saturday and I was the only one there so it was pretty quiet and quick. A few people arrived shortly after and sounded like they've been there before. I ordered the chicken shawarma plate which came with a salad, rice, hummus and one pita bread. The pita was nice and freshly baked. The chicken shawarma was their take on it, not the traditional kind which was a little disappointing. Tasted fine but not the traditional flavoring and process. I also tried both the katayef- walnut and cheese. Definitely like the walnut one. And tried the baklava which theirs was made with almonds. None of the desserts were overly sweet which was nice. read more

Amena Cafe is a fantastic restaurant located on Jones and Badura. You'll find them in a small plaza with good parking. Inside is a casual atmosphere with adequate seating and lovely Mediterranean music playing. Menu offers a nice selection of salads, soups, specialty dishes, grilled plates, vegetarian and vegan dish, as well as desserts and drinks. Falafel Plate ($15.51) is very filling and delicious! It comes with seven balls of deep-fried crispy and moist chickpeas, served with creamy hummus, fresh pita bread, and a refreshing salad of green and red cabbage with a hint of citrus, diced tomatoes, cilantro, green onions, and pickled red beets, it's delightful and really good! Also tried various desserts including Knafeh (small, $10.34) which is a delicate sweet crunchy noodle pastry filled with melted cheese and topped with chopped pistachios, it doesn't come with syrup and you can request for it. This pairs nicely with Hot Tea ($3.92), and they use black tea that is strong and soothing. Baklava ($3.61) is good too but also very sweet. Pastry is nice and crispy with walnuts filling and sweet syrup, I ate just a tiny portion. My personal favorite is Ma'amoul cookies (2 pieces, $6.19), it's a traditional Lebanese shortbread butter cookie that has delicious fillings such as walnuts, pistachios, or dates, and these are outstanding! The cookies are freshly made in house and baked with a light golden exterior crisp. I tried one with walnuts which has a beautiful crunch, is lightly sweetened, and so yummy! The other cookie has dates, it's delightful, very smooth consistency almost like jam, not too sweet, and excellent! They also offer desserts like Katayef (a small folded pancake stuffed with nuts or sweet cream) and Chocolate Quicker (similar to chocolate balls). Service from owner Asim is very kind, welcoming, attentive, personable, and friendly! read more

This place is a gem! We have been wanting to try it, and we finally made it here today. Everything we ordered was great and home made. We got the grape leaves and kibbeh for our appetizers--both so delicious! We also got the steak & chicken kabob plate, which came with a generous portion of hummus and salad, plus pita bread. And for dessert we had the Turkish coffee and pistachio baklava . Food is beautifully flavored, the chicken kabob was my favorite. Was only able to take pics of the baklava We are already thinking of when to come back to try other food on the menu! read more

Amena Cafe - Pistachio Baklava and Turkish Coffee - Mediterranean Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Craving Middle Eastern Food especially Lebanese- then this is your place. Recently reopened to a new location. The service is impeccable- owner, chef, and server were attentive. Very helpful on explaining the food and made sure that the food we order is to our liking. We ordered a bunch of appetizers to share- hummus, zataar flatbread, fries, and kibbeh. They had different sauces in the table and also gave us tzatziki. They give you plenty of bread- made in house. The chicken and beef shawarma were delicious- flavorful and not dry, comes with rice and salad. The lentil soup is so good. Beef kofta plate is delicious. Make sure to have the mint lemonade - so good. Make room for dessert- we did have to wait for the kunafeh which is made fresh. Totally worth the wait. Make sure to ask for extra syrup/sauce. Perfect with Turkish coffee. Definitely coming back and trying other item in the menu. Great to support local business. read more

K and I visited for a weekend lunch. We entered and were greeted right away. I had an unsweetened iced tea and we shared a babaganoush, lentil soup and a chicken and beef skewer combo plate. Iced tea was great and free refills. Homemade pita and babaganoush was yummy. Lentil soup was a huge serving; not as thick as I'm used to but we enjoyed it. The skewer combo plate came with good portions of rice, salad and hummus. Steak skewer was really tender and we enjoyed both skewers. I thought we'd have some leftovers with the amount of food we got but we finished everything. Friendly service and laid back atmosphere. We will definitely be back! read more

This might be the best Mediterranean food west of Dearborn, MI. Everything we had seemed like it was homemade (grape leaves, chicken and beef sandwiches, fries, kibbeh,pita). Keep this place in business so we as a community/city can have some amazing food. Don't let the quick-serve style dining scare you into thinking it's not legit, it is. read more

Great food and service! Saw several reviews and wanted to try this spot. Having been to the Middle East we were curious on how authentic it would be. We were not disappointed with our orders and found several of the items as good as what we had overseas, and some even better. The freshly baked pita and hummus were outstanding. Parking was easy on the weekend and staff were great. read more

We were traveling and our tastebuds were craving something new and exciting. We did a search of restaurants in the area and Amena Cafe popped up. What a find! When dining, there is service and then there is service + hospitality. At Amena, from the moment we walked through the doors, Asim (co-owner) greeted us with the best hospitality and service we've received in years!! Asim made recommendations that were on point, the food was absolutely flavorful, and he checked on us as if we were guests in his home. I have an aversion to overcooked and bone dry meat so I was crossing my fingers when I ordered the Beef Kofta plate. Wow, wow, woooowwwww. The beef was delicious and I could even break it apart with my fork. We ordered hummus (pictured on my plate) and that was rich in flavor as well. My child ordered lentil soup and ate it ALL. That's saying something! We also met Amer (co-owner/founder) who was great! We would return here in a heartbeat and are trying to convince them to open a location in Reno. If they do, I'm moving into their restaurant just so I can access phenomenal food 24/7. Huge thanks to Asim for such a memorable dining experience! read more

Amena Cafe - Beef Shawarma Plate. EXCELLENT! - Mediterranean Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Welcome to the new hidden gem relocated from spring valley at Decatur. You can try, but you may not find a more authentic, quality Mediterranean experience in town. Everything is more fresh and flavorful than you can imagine. We started with tabbouleh- bright, fresh flavorful. I had the chicken salad, which had a deep complex flavor of cumin and other spices perfectly offset with cabbage and parsley. My wife had kibbeh, cutting it open you can see they are hand prepped with fresh chopped onions and perfect blend of spices. Their in-house hot sauce and tahini pair well with everything we had. Hand cut fresh potatoes for the fries and shish taouk were perfect. I cannot emphasize enough how fresh and flavorful everything was. This kind of authenticity and quality is hard to find. This place is a southwest side gem and instant must. read more

It's so goood! So fresh everything is yummy! I am so sad I am not local and won't be able to come here everyday to eat this yummy plate of food! I got the Beef Kabob Plate!

The salad was so good and dressing, even the hummus with pita, I ate everything ! read more

Amazing Mediterranean & Greek Food! Amena Cafe is an absolute gem. The owner, Asmi, greeted us personally and was incredibly warm and friendly--you feel welcome the moment you walk in. The food was unbelievably fresh; you can truly taste the love and care put into every dish. This is not your typical gyro spot. The flavors are authentic, thoughtfully prepared, and beautifully balanced. Every dish felt genuine and homemade, the kind of food that keeps you thinking about it long after the meal is over. I will make it a point to return to Amena Cafe every single time I visit Las Vegas. Highly recommend to anyone craving real Mediterranean and Greek cuisine. ******* read more
