    Food was good but they took 1.5 hours to bring the food out! Unbelievable for a fast food restaurant.

    We ordered the Petra Mixed Grill, which came with rice and a side of baba ganoush. The chicken,…read morebeef, and kebab were all flavorful. They were big, hearty chunks of meat that stayed juicy and tender, never dry. My top favorite was the babaganoush. This eggplant dip wasn't too sour, wasn't too salty, and that smoky undertone made it absolutely irresistible. We also ordered the Maklubk, a traditional dish featuring a fried half chicken served over a generous mound of rice. The chicken had beautifully crispy skin and well-seasoned. The rice was impressive-soft and aromatic, layered with eggplant, cauliflower, onion and potato. Truly unique. Portions were generous. We walked out with two boxes of leftovers. The service was good and the dining area was clean and comfortable. The dishes took about 25 minutes to arrive. But once the food hit the table, it was clear the kitchen wasn't cutting corners. The chef took his/her time, and it showed in every bite. We had a genuinely enjoyable experience here.

    Came here last night for dinner and I'm currently having my leftovers as I am writing this review…read more The food was so good. It wasn't busy on a Wednesday night and we were seated right away. We ordered the lentil soup (big enough to share) and the Sampler Appetizer to start. As my entree I ordered the grilled chicken kabab with my two sides as salad and hummus. The server advised it would take about 30 minutes for our food to come out but idk why he said that because it really didn't. Shortly after our appetizers arrived and once we finished the apps, the entrees arrived. It felt no longer than any other dining experience that is on time. There was complimentary pita and a dip brought to our table and WOW. So good. The pita was so hot and fresh and fluffy while the olive oil in the dip..... you can just taste how it's not the olive oil you get at the grocery store. The red paste in the dip was a little spicy but very enjoyable. The lentil soup tasted homemade and the sampler appetizer plate had the best grape leaves I've ever had. The hummus was delicious but really, the baba ghanoush was my favorite I think. The eggplant tasted like smokey/ charred before being mixed up and wow. It was next level!! By the time my entree came I was practically full. But I had a little of my kababs and they were cooked and seasoned so, so well. I am enjoying my plate today and it still tastes just as great as last night. I will definitely be back here soon!!!

    I have to laugh. I was prepared to initially give Zalabia a very low rating. When we entered, the…read moreplace was dead. A gentleman was standing in the kitchen, & he just looked at us with no greeting. We sat down, looked at a menu, & waited 7 minutes before he came out. Finally he appeared & we ordered the small chicken shawarma wraps. The gentleman replied we could not have chicken shawarma wraps today. I laughed & we ordered a beef shawarma wrap, a falafel wrap, & a side of baba ghanoush, & 2 waters. We sat for 23 minutes, lol. I told my wife this is turning into such a bad experience. Finally the man showed up with the wraps. I mentioned we also ordered waters & baba ghanoush. He seemed confused but brought them out. A moment later I sank my teeth into some of the most delicious beef shawarma I've ever had. The shop owner was from Egypt & his beef had been marinated in warm spices like cinnamon. It was unexpectedly excellent. Then I tried the baba ghanoush. Wow!! It was not the usual flavoring that I love. It was totally unique & also excellent. It also had a tiny bit of heat in it from a chile pepper. Finally, the falafel was way above average, tasting so great. Anyway, I was ready to give Zalabia one star, but it always comes down to the food. And the food was 5 stars.
