    They serve healthy and flavorful wraps. I ordered mine for delivery. The time in transit likely affected the texture but overall it was a pretty good lunch. I will say the pomegranate sauce may be better for dark meats or with a cream sauce. I got it for my chicken breast wrap. Otherwise ingredients were fresh and well cooked.

    Being cheap on meat , cheese , and no type of toppings at all.

    Dude , don't believe anything on the internet. today i found out it's all bs. Shawarma bread burnt , the tablet they have don't even have the same options as the one the customers use. they was being hella cheap, there was like literally maybe 2 pc of meat on there. I lifted 1 nacho and all this hardened cheese was stuck to it. Under that was basically straight chips no type of anything on it. I got none of the toppings i ordered in my sandwich, no diced tomatoes, like 3 pcs of fries in the whole thing and the meat was hard. Basically threw 42$ in the trash very disappointing. -------------- Edited ------------------- My stomach hurts.

    WAS a Crispy Shawarma Cheesesteak (Chicken)

    The crispy chicken cheesesteak shawarma was that good that it didn't even make it for me to take a picture. Will definitely be coming back again

    Stopped in here on a Friday early evening for dinner. You order at the counter and then they call you when your order is ready. I thought the prices were very good for the portions you got. I enjoyed a hummus bowl that had veggies in it and falafel. I got a meal so i picked a salad and a bottle of water to go with it. There was so much food! My boyfriend liked his dinner as well! The restaurant looked fairly new. Nicely decorated and clean. I will be back for another hummus bowl!

    Stopped in here twice for recent lunches. On-street parking was easily found right up front. The staff was much livelier on my second visit. First time it didn't seem like anyone wanted to be bothered. Second time, I had smiles and at least a thank you! The inside was not crowded, but there were people coming in for take out and a few other diners besides myself. The table situation is spread out pretty good and there is Arabic music playing softly in the dining area. I'd call ahead if you're in a rush. The wait was about ten minutes on both trips. I went with Shawarma both times, the first was chicken second was a mix of lamb and beef. It is a big portion so I went sans fries on the second trip. The Saj bread was huge, but thin and fresh and it kept the wraps together extremely well. The meat was finely cut up and lightly seasoned. Both wraps included cucumber, tomato, tahini/garlic sauce and a side of shatta hot sauce (think red chili sauce). I thought both wraps were good, but a tad too heavy on the tahini sauce. Nothing bad, nothing great. Might have to go Kabab over rice and have some hummus on a future visit and report back. Prices were decent overall.

    Food was delicious! Fries were very crispy and the wraps were properly seasoned. We really enjoyed what we ordered & would definitely go back! After satisfying your salty craving, you can head over next door to Le Souk for a sweet treat. My only qualm with the place is that I had to wait quite a while for this order, despite the restaurant being empty. Will be returning!

    I'm not that well versed in Middle Eastern cuisine but I have had The Halal Guys before so I kind of had an idea of what I would be getting at Bisho's. My co worker happens to love Chicken Shawarma so she ordered this from Bisho's and shared some with me. It was very good and the portion was huge. I placed an order of my own a few days later. I went with the Beef/Lamb Rice Bowl and got the recommended toppings except onions. These toppings included tomato, cucumber, lettuce and some kind of pickled vegetable I could not identify. All of this was topped with a Tahini sauce and I think it was this sauce that ruined the dish for me. I should have done some homework or asked for the sauce on the side. I guess I thought because it was white it would be akin to the Halal Guys famous white sauce but it was not that at all. It tasted sour to me and unappealing. Because they give a generous portion I shared the rest with my mom. I also don't think I like lamb and beef mixed together either. I would definitely try them again but I would stick with the chicken and whatever sauce comes with that. I also got the babagnooj and understood that it was eggplant which I like baked in the oven so I thought this would not be bad. It wasn't bad but I was not prepared for the amount of garlic. So much so that I could not eat any more of it for my lunch because I feared having to speak to customers with that on my breath. This was the type of garlic saturation that gets in your pores.

    Bishos continues to provide excellent food at a reasonable cost. I've tried all the vegetarian dishes, and they're all great! The hummus is rich, and creamy . The baba ghanoush is redolent with garlic and olive oil, as opposed to be heavily laden with tahini. The foul is very flavorful and packed with protein. The cheese, Za'atar bread is kind of like a Middle Eastern quesadilla containing cheese, and za'atar seasoning on their delicious saj bread. I prefer the chicken kebab to the chicken Shawarma. The kebab is well seasoned and the grilling gives it extra flavor. All their entrées are available as a wrap, over rice, as a hoagie, or on a salad. You get to choose six additional toppings. I love the toum(garlic sauce) & amba(sweet curry sauce) and then add four more vegetables. My only issue with that is they don't really give you enough toppings. The falafel is very well seasoned but a little dry. Strangely, it's not available in a pita, but you can get it as a wrap or anything else mentioned above. The food is always impeccably fresh & is halal. Customer service(especially the dark haired girl with the glasses) is outstanding! If you order direct from their website you will receive either five dollar off or 10% off coupons pretty frequently. I usually get it to go, but there is seating available inside. Be sure to check out their Le Souk market for desserts and all types of Middle Eastern spices grains, snacks, etc. review of that to follow.

    Suraya did NOT disappoint ‍ The food, the flavors, the ambience and service... EVERYTHING was…read moreamazing. We did the tasting menu and every single dish was so flavorful Hummous Baba Ganoudh Muhammara Labneh Taboule Fatteh Rakakat Kawarma Samke Harra And for dessert... Kanafeh + Blueberry & Lemon Verbena Verrine -- the perfect ending. Everything was absolutely delicious, and the ambience made the whole experience even better. Suraya is definitely a spot to add to your Philly dining list

    obviously as many others have said, amazing place. run down:…read more LUNCH MENU: Labneh: amazing. love. devour. decently thick spread of labneh, not too shallow plating. topped with za'atar, sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and mint. here's the thing, three people in my group do not like mint all that much. I appreciate surayas mint in particular, it's less egregious than other mints, and most importantly, they are whole leafs! easy to pick out. the labneh is perfectly amazing on its own. I will say, if I could have it my way, i'd nix the tomatoes, and replace with the tiny skinny peppers they include in the pickles and olives side dish. i'd also include a bit more oil, as the spread is actually quite thick. and more seasoning for the same reason. if you're on a date, especially early into dating, beware of spices in your teeth. check constantly while eating this. Traditional Hummus: Delicious. amazing. much thinner spread, but also more surface area. the oil and seasoning go a longer way in this one. no notes absolutely stunning. Pita: thinner than some other places, delicious, FRESH, hot, comes with one per person. truthfully, one was enough, and I usually order two at other places. Side Dish Pickles and Olives: This dish includes both green and purple olives, tiny thin green spicy peppers, and sliced pickles. The green olives are pitted, and my favorite. they are so good on a hummus pita bite. the purple olives were not pitted, and did not come with an extra empty dish to empty the pits into. I didn't try these as I don't like purple olives. or pits. at least in public. the peppers were AMAZING! not too spicy. but definitely spicy. great with the labneh. I think my dish only came with five. would love more! and then the pickles are sliced vertically in halves, not too acidic. I *think* key word *THINK* they are fermented and not traditionally pickled. so, they won't taste the same as a regular pickle most people are used to. I still love them. this dish overall is $6 and very worth the price in my opinion. easy to share for the table. Green Salad: this salad is quite similar to a traditional fattoush salad if you're familiar. I have a few things with this. Mint was abundant. if you don't like mint, i'm not saying don't get it, but it's noteworthy. I picked around the mint since they were whole leafs thankfully. the bottom of the plate is covered in an herb yogurt, the lettuces and such are coated in a vinaigrette. the vegetables are seasonal, it's October 2nd and we had watermelon radish, cucumbers, tomatoes, some onions. im not really sure if I would get this again, especially for the price. people liked the eggs on top. I liked the radishes and cucumbers. I love a fresh bite. but not necessary. Cauliflower Sandwich: Definitely shareable. comes with sumac fries, an aioli, a separate vinaigrette for the wrap itself. the wrap is cut in halves. inside it's hard to tell exactly what's inside. there is a sumac fry inside. cauliflower obviously. not really sure what else. absolutely delicious though. I love this one and it's a great option for a vegetarian. Orange Blossom Iced Tea: VERY GOOD. I would like some simple syrup with it but VERY GOOD. the orange blossom really comes through. Pistachio Rose Cronut situation: DELICIOUS! The service is attentive and efficient. most sections are thoughtfully stocked with their own water stations and such so that the servers can tend towards the customers better. I appreciate that little detail. the kitchen staff looks like a well oiled machine. everything seems to run very smooth in this establishment. And inside is particularly pretty.

    A wonderful dinner to celebrate my son's birthday…read more Service was outstanding. Made the experience all the better. Started out with cocktails and some happy hour à la cart items. All great. Really enjoyed the signature cocktails. The fries and the chicken wings are a must. We got an array of dishes including the swordfish, dorado, portobello mushroom, and the ribeye for 2. I think they knock it out of the park with the fish and the sauces. So good. And of course we finished with the soft service. Got some of each. It's a great way to wrap up a fabulous dinner.

    If you're coming here for the hype, you might leave a little disappointed. Laser Wolf has a fun,…read morecasual atmosphere with plenty of bar seating, and the staff was friendly throughout our visit. We started with the Salatim, and while the variety of spreads and salads was fresh and enjoyable, the pita was surprisingly underwhelming. It tasted more like premade pita than something fresh, which was disappointing since it's such a big part of the meal. For our mains, we ordered the Chicken Shishlik and the Romanian Beef Kebab. The chicken was the biggest letdown of the night it was tender but lacked flavor. The beef kebab, on the other hand, was juicy, well-seasoned, and easily the better choice. Oddly enough, the French fries ended up being the best thing we ate all night. They were perfectly crispy and honestly some of the best fries I've had in Philly. Dessert was another disappointment. For a restaurant at this price point, having only two soft-serve ice cream desserts felt lazy and like an afterthought. Overall, the food wasn't bad, but nothing besides the fries and beef kebab really stood out or made me want to come back. In a city like Philadelphia, where there are so many amazing restaurants in the same price range, I think there are much better options for both the food and the overall experience.
