Wow! I was surprised to find a hidden gem at this location. There's so much food diversity in Lawrenceville but I'm glad to find Lebanese's restaurant. I ordered a signature chicken and meat kabab. Both were very delicious but I liked the meat kabab the best. The service was excellent, the interior was clean and I liked how they transformed the place. Overall, great spot and I look forward to visiting again.

Signature Chicken Aboodi

Farooj Abo Alabed is a Middle Eastern fast food restaurant so think chicken shawarmas, buckets of chicken, and more. The inside was aesthetically designed and really displays the beauty of the culture. There were several tables inside so decent amount of seating . As for the service, the food came out a bit later than expected for a fast food restaurant, but I also recognize that the chicken is being grilled/roasted in real time. I got the Signature Chicken Aboodi. It is a cup filled with tender, marinated chicken and seasoned fries topped with their garlic and pink sauce. It was super delicious! The sauces really made the meal for me. I also tried a bit of the Signature Chicken Abo Alabed All-Star, which is basically a chicken shawarma wrap. My boyfriend really liked it and it is one of the better chicken shawarma wraps that I have tried, although I think the pickles were a bit overpowering for me. The wrap, which was also crispy on the outside, tasted best when it was slathered in the pink or garlic sauces. I would come back to try the other chicken meals! I think it is a solid place for some quick Middle Eastern food.

The yummiest grilled chicken, kabobs, seafood broil but making it chicken style the lemon and spicy song so good, the service and people amazing. Halal too 10/10!

Food was tasty but not big enough for the price. No regular water was available. Meals are almost $6-$7 more than a sandwich.

The last time I visited was 2020 bc I worked in the area. I was in the area tonight for a hair…read moreappointment and the Cheeeezy was calling my name ! I noticed that ownership had changed so I hoped that the menu hadn't.... then there it was the Cheeeezy for $8.99 so I ordered it and added the regular fries and drink for an additional $4.99. So with tax and tip it was $18! Burger, fries and a soda sad just sad. Anyhoo I very seldom ever get a burger unless at Village burger or Culvers. The fries here are hand cut but mine were over done and when my Cheeeezy was set before me my heart sank bc it didn't look like I remembered. The cheese wasn't dripping all throughout the meat but the bun was still upside down and nicely toasted. The first bite brought back the memory of the deliciousness I have been missing for 6 years. I got mayo and grilled onions on it along with Chipotle mayo to dip my fries in. Also my Barqs rootbeer was crisp and tasty. I'm not a soda drinker more of a water kinda gal but I do splurge on occasion. This was worth the splurge. While eating I noticed the health report posted on the wall as you exit and the score was 84 B, upon further inspection the 2 previous scores were 94 and 100 .... so definitely headed in the wrong direction. I didn't take the time to actually read the report bc the place looked clean to me and if there was mold on the soda nozzles (common occurrence with several points taken off for it) I didn't want to know so I finished my burger left most of the fries and it will probably be quite sometime before I'm back this way. They were doing a steady to go business but only 6 other people dining in besides myself.

I recently went to Wayback Burgers to feed a burger craving and it hit the spot. I got the…read moreimpossible burger, but I have had it before and it never misses. The guy working the register is not really helpful and I think it may be because he doesn't speak english that well and tries to hide it. I asked if my bun could be toasted well and if the burger can be cut in half and he didn't add anything on the register, then when I stared at him waiting for him to add it, he dismissively turned to the cook and said "bun". When I got the burger, the bun wasn't really toasted and it wasn't cut in half, so I sent it back. The cook was very nice about it and brought it back out with no issues. The burger was good, but all of the food was really greasy. While eating the burger, grease began to drip down my hand and the fries/onion rings still looked wet. I ate this for dinner and woke up with the absolute worst headache that lingered for 3 days... Also, just a heads up that it is a la carte, so the drink and sides were an additional cost. The impossible was an upcharge, they don't sell small drinks, then the fronion rings all came to be about $20, which was pretty expensive. The location is tucked in a Kroger parking lot and wasn't busy when I went, which was later in the evening. The inside was very clean, nice and organized. It was also quiet inside, which I liked. Overall, I probably won't come back here because of the headache it gave me, but the burger was decent

I learned an important lesson today: sometimes you should trust your first lunch instinct…read more A coworker suggested Greek, and my mind immediately went to Adriatic Grill. Instead, we decided to try somewhere new and headed to Pita Corner in Lawrenceville. I ordered the beef shawarma with falafel. Let's start with the positives. The restaurant was clean, the dining area was well kept, and the restroom was spotless. It looked like it had just been cleaned, which I always appreciate. Now for the food. The beef shawarma had decent flavor, but it was so dry that every bite felt like a workout. The meat clung to the roof of my mouth and my teeth like it had signed a lease there. No amount of chewing seemed to improve the experience. Texture matters just as much as seasoning, and unfortunately, this missed the mark. The falafel ended up being the highlight of the meal. It was flavorful, had a nice texture, and was easily the best thing on the plate. I always like giving new places a chance, but this one just wasn't for me. While I appreciated the cleanliness and friendly environment, the food simply didn't leave me wanting to come back. If you'd like, I can also make it a little sharper and funnier for Yelp while still keeping it professional and believable.
