I'm a fan of their falafel. but when I drive by they are always closed. Nara, where are you?read more

This place single-handedly changed my opinion on the state of Arkansas LOL!…read more There are places that you eat at and it's one and done; there are places to revisit time and time because you crave it; but Nara? Seeing the pictures alone made me crave something I've never had before, and going there was absolutely phenomenal. I got the loaded lamb roll with fries and my partner the coco mix. We shared hummus and pita. My roll was packed with lamb with white sauce and cheese saucing up the already well seasoned lamb--lettuce and tomato broke the richness of the meat. I dipped my fries in the amazing hummus, so creamy and smooth with some quality olive oil on top. My partner's rice had chicken and lamb meat that was insanely tender and flavorful, the rice complimenting it with its spices. The coco mix comes with a variety of proteins to try from if you want a little of everything! The falafel in it was so crunchy yet soft inside. The cashier was super helpful wirh his recommendations and made sure we were comfy. I appreciate the variety of drinks he offered as well, giving customers options and his personal input! While I do agree with some reviews that the wait can be long, the anticipation is so worth it. I'd never expect such a great restaurant in a small city on the outskirts of Arkansas, but I will be revisiting just for a taste of Nara.

Always classic and the best of all Mediterranean food in northwest Arkansas!!…read more I used to wonder how they made it with such limited hours & space, after eating here regularly for years don't wonder! . The humus has a tiny kick, or something on plate did,- The sampler with a little of everything was divine... falafels cooked to perfection one of us had the chicken, spiced perfectly! They are kind efficient, and you can feel the love and heart of the Cook in the food.

I've been eating middle eastern food since the 1970's. I've had it in Tulsa, OKC, New York,…read moreDallas, and St Louis. My wife makes it often. I have no idea who all these people are that are leaving positive reviews, but they have to be friends, family, or paid reviewers. That was the worst middle eastern food I have ever had. How do you screw up a bowl of beans? How can hummus be so bland? I could not finish the food, AND I WILL EAT ANYTHING. That food was worse than gas station food!! The servers were extremely nice and courteous. The environment was very clean. It was in a neat part of town. I KNOW you can make better food than that! When I left all I could taste was bitter, bland, and disappointment. No, you should not go there until they improve.

It was a frustrating experience, and the issue wasn't handled appropriately. While waiting, I noticed the store appeared to be reselling products from Sam's Club and Walmart at significant markups, which didn't sit well with me. To top it off, the food was disappointing. I've had better meals from a gas station. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

This place is known for their Greek cuisine, so we had to try it out being Gyro fans…read more I was surprised they actually offered lamb as well as a few other meats; I went with lamb. The Gyros were pretty good, very basic though, and nothing that popped out as "amazing!" The service was a bit slow, bringing out dishes to our party a bit stacked and the last person getting their plate about 8 minutes after the first person. They were not busy by the way. The ambience was vey typical generic "fancy" setting if that makes sense? Like they were trying to look fancy but everything was bought at the At Home Store?.. anyway if you need a gyro fix this is your spot, otherwise I wouldn't drive miles to get it.

This place was busy but service was still really good. Food was well seasoned and good portions.read more

Hadn't…read morebeen here since I was 12 and was in the process of trying to lose some weight and not eat so many fried foods. I wanted something fresh clean and healthy and that's exactly what I got when I went to the GOAT. It's located in the strip mall near Chick-fil-A but nearly halfway in between there and Lowe's (it's on the right if you come off Central). There's plenty of free parking, and as you enter, it's dark and intimate sort of like a sports bar but nicer. They have a great bar with full offerings; not only beer and wine but hard alcohol too, and I guarantee you'll never leave here hungry. They have a wide range of Mediterranean foods, as well as some great additional offerings, but to narrow it down to probably my top five or six items, you absolutely can never go wrong with the chicken Shawarma - or beef for that matter, all of their appetizers are fantastic, their seafood is fresh and delicious, the lamb is to die for, and for those nights when you're just not feeling real great, but you need to put something healthy in your tummy, go for that Greek salad with the lemon and rice soup called Avgolemono combo. It will cure whatever ails you (colds, moles, and sore backside holes) The best part though is the hospitality, the service is second to none. I walked in here after having offered on a home and celebrated the acceptance on the house and had phenomenal salmon. Then I came back a month later and still had about a week to kill before escrow closed. I was staying in a hotel and that's when I pretty much went through their entire menu. It was so good So if you're looking for something healthy, delicious and served with the smile, check out the GOAT Mediterranean restaurant. And if you're not into Mediterranean, check out their new Italian restaurant downtown called Little Italy.
