    Excellent food, service could be better, one of the cleanest Mediterranean restaurant. Came in on a Monday night as a first timer. The restaurant wasn't too busy. Ordered at the counter for dine-in. Not sure if you pay after ordering or not, but I was able to get seated without paying. The male owner (I think) was at the counter this night. Not once did I see him smile when greeting customers. I started out with the beef and chicken combination platter. I can tell you immediately that Char Char has the most moist and soft piece of chicken and beef you'll find at a Mediterranean restaurant. The meats were savory to the taste, and melted in your mouth with each bite. The portion size was rather small and the price was a little steep compared to other Mediterranean restaurants, $25. For someone with a short stature like myself, I could really eat. I finished the beef and chicken combination platter in less than 15 minutes. The owner brought me a bill to my table and told me "You must be hungry." I replied, "Yes" and told him to "hold on" on the bill. I walked to the next table to ask a couple dining in that night whether they like their char broiled quarter chicken which they did. I went up to the counter and ordered the quarter dark chicken. The owner then said "But you have to pay first buddy." With everything that has transpired, I felt like he was afraid I wasn't going to pay. Again, this was what I "FELT" at the time which could just be me. I was not impressed by the char broiled chicken. The chicken was done well because the meats fall off the bones with each bite. It just lacked flavor. The BBQ sauce helped but it wasn't enough. The combination platter was simply superior in every aspect. Finished dining around 7:50 PM and the doors were locked. I don't really understand why not just close at 7:30 PM, instead of 8 PM. I would not be happy if I were to show up at 7:45 PM and couldn't get in. Putting all personal biases aside, I gave Char Char a 4/5 stars. A case could be made for 3.5 stars. The beef and combination platter was delicious. The price on the combination platters could be cheaper. The customer service could definitely be better.

    Excellent, simple, delicious food with great service! I had the chicken kabobs with bruschetta and my wife had the same with tabouli. Both came with rice and pita and they were delicious. Chicken is lightly marinated and cooked perfectly! Perhaps the best and freshest bruschetta in town!

    Chicken, rice, Potato salad, salad and hummus. Very nice plating.

    New favorite restaurant in Oklahoma!!!…read more I've lived in the Middle East and I can tell you this place is an absolute gem for the very healthy ancient cuisine. The greedy part of me thought I shouldn't review this place because the food is so good I don't want the quality compromised by too much customer service but the food has literally compelled me to write this. Friday evening 6:30pm: the place doesn't have a single chair available, tabouli is sold out. Plan accordingly. The Mezza Platter & the Shish Kebab are winners! The tenderloin shish kebab was the best I've EVER had! The tzatziki cucumber yogurt dip was perfectly thick...not runny like other inferior restaurants. The cabbage roll was surprisingly pleasant. I liked the herb olive oil dizzle over the hummus and eggplant dip. I also enjoyed the subtle hint of charred eggplant in the background of the dip. The place is across from Natural Grocers so it's perfectly located for multiple shops and stops. Will I come back? Definitely! Honest review & not paid by anyone to write these words. Also, I'm not AI!

    My group visited for the Vegan Chef Challenge. My eggplant entree was vegan AF and delicious in the…read moresame way. We're a sharing is caring group and I sampled from the other vegan items ordered. The falafel was great, the red onion and cabbage salad was great, and the red lentil soup was sooo good. The meaty meats agreed and enjoyed their vegan, vegetarian, and meat options as well. I'm glad we came in! I wasn't aware they had so many vegan items on their regular menu. This spot is going into the heavy rotation category forthwith!

I got an avocado sandwich and Dan got the Shawarma chicken. They were both delicious. Both were served on fresh pita bread. Dan got a huge serving of delicious marinated chicken. It was such a generous serving that he couldn't finish it. Mine was just right. They have quite a variety of Mediterranean dishes on their menu. We plan to return and try their egg plant dip, grape leaves, and other tempting choices. They charge extra for using credit cards. I find that ironic because what drew us to this restaurant is that it is on the rapid rewards dining partners list. When we dine at a restaurant on this list, we get 3 airline points per dollar spent instead of the usual one point per dollar. I usually avoid businesses that charge for credit cards.

Noticeable, a little redecorating has happened since then, both with the décor and the prices. I swear that the prices have doubled since 2018 our first visit. Fairly and appropriately up due to inflation. So significantly higher that instead of the platter we always had, we went with the more economical Chicken Shawarma sandwich. Tabouli and hummus for the sides. The sandwiches were filling. Packed with chicken and fresh salad. The pita on the sandwich and the squares for dipping were a little stale. Tabouli average and mild, but rich nutty flavored, thick hummus very good. A heavy peppering with ground sumac always brightens up the hummus and the sandwich; well, any Mediterranean food for that matter. (Sumac, yes, the same stuff that grows on the roadsides in Oklahoma.) Always ask for it. Something I forgot about, the Cardamon Iced tea. This is a refreshing, tasty drink. Ali Baba's is one of the very few Mediterranean restaurants that serves it. Try it if you haven't The service is friendly/adequate. Order at the counter. Your food is delivered to the table.
