My Kenz Quesadilla with Kofta was disappointing especially at the price charged. Service is slow…read more One server on the floor on a Saturday afternoon. Fifteen minutes after I sat down the server finally came over to my table. I asked for a glass of water. Water is not free. They charge 2.50 for a bottle they bought at H-E-B (24 bottles @ $3.99). 30 minutes later I received my order. Seriously, how long does it take to make a quesadilla? I finished my mediocre quesadilla 20 minutes ago and I'm still waiting for the check and there are hardly any customers here. Thumbs down experience. I won't be back again. PS: I noticed multiple Yelp reviews from people all referencing asking for water (as in free) and being given a plastic bottle that cost $ 2.50. Total scam.

We catered our New Year's Eve party from Ta'bleyah, owned by Ramez, and the experience was…read moreabsolutely outstanding. Our order included brisket, chicken kabab, beef kofta (cut perfectly into two pieces each), rice, grilled vegetables, green salad, hummus, and fresh bread. The food arrived warm, beautifully packaged, and right on time. Delivery fees were very reasonable, and Ramez went above and beyond by setting everything up on the serving table so elegantly, it truly elevated the entire experience. I placed the order on short notice, yet he delivered big results. The meats were incredibly tender, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The hummus deserves a special mention, it was one of the best I've ever had, and that says a lot coming from someone who is Middle Eastern. Both kids and adults loved the food, and we received so many compliments throughout the night. This was more than just catering, it felt personal, generous, and made with care. Ordering from Ta'bleyah will now be a tradition for us every New Year's Eve. Highly, highly recommend!

I originally visited for a simple beef shawarma, but got temped by the buffet which they had at…read moredinner, for only $6 more. The best dishes for me were the lamb. Brisket slices and pita bread. Some of the dishes are spicy like the spicy hummus, spicy chicken dish, and their hot sauce. Some of the compartments were not all that hot, like the butter chicken, the day I visited. It was bland anyway, very different than the Indian version, so I don't think heat would have helped much. At the end was dessert time. They have about 5 desserts. I tried the roll with lots of peanuts, the baklava, the sweet bread and the flan. I have to say I liked the baklava the best as I figured I would. Service was friendly though.

Even the presentation through delivery was beautiful and made us excited to open everything and eat. So far, we tried the macarona béchamel -- it was fantastic, moist, not dry at all, and full of flavor. We also tried the koshary, and the sauce added to it was perfectly balanced and gave exactly the authentic taste needed. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. I can't wait to visit in person soon!

So decided to come back again last Saturday with same friend and her child for a relaxed dinner. They have a great playground for the kids and the patio is huge! The food is super tasty. We had some hummus, and the mixed grill plate. It's served with a massive pita bread that is freshly baked and the size of my head. They have good sauces as well. We didn't finish our food between the two of us and ended up taking leftovers. Portions are great. The mint lemonade is to die for!!
