Good vibes only

We walked in on a Wednesday night, and it was POPPING!! This place is awesome. We tried the shawarma, schnitzel, and merguez sandwiched in laffa, and all were delicious with generous portions of fries. Highly recommend for reasonably priced kosher food! Took me right back to Jerusalem

Falafel
Krissy L.

Excellent Kosher food! Cute little restaurant and the staff were very kind! Seems a little pricey per plate but you get huge amounts of food! Enough for a couple days! Loved the chicken... even the green beans had a special flavor! I would definitely go back to try something else next time. Very fun to try! Also the little Israeli market next-door has a great selection of snacks and candies, etc.. There's even a butcher over there.

Beef Schwarma & Fries

The Okra salad was delicious! The beef schwarma was also packed & super tasty!! The service was so pleasant

We just visited Fata Morgana and it was quite the experience. We ordered the hummus appetizer, garlic fries and the Pita Lachmajoon (juicy beef on an open pita with tahini and matcha on the side). First impression is that the servings are huge. The hummus was original with a sliced boiled egg and jalepeno on top. Overall hummus was excellent. When the sever asked do you want the regular or large garlic fries (go with the regular) the large was huge. They were crispy and very tasty (overall excellent). The juicy beef lachmajoon was disappointing and the server made us another order. It was described as "juicy" but was very dry. The reorder was excellent (it was very juicy and favorable). I think the first portion must have been sitting under a heat lamp and should not have been served. As for ambiance, don't turn away from stopping at a strip mall because it is well worth it. I would also say it's closer to 3 dollar signs instead of 2. Overall this was an excellent food experience and we will come back to try more menu items. FIMP "Food is My Passion"

Hummus with mushroom
Kat V.

Delicious delicious delicious! Hummus with mushrooms are so good. Creamy hummus goes so well with mushrooms and onions. The bread for the hummus is so fluffy and warm. We could not stop but have to stop because this appetizer is huge and we need to have some rooms for the main dish. Sabich is huge and delicious. Fata chef sandwich is so delicious. The sandwich has schnitzel, thin slide of egg plants, and the bast part is the matbucha, spicy tomato and roasted peppers. The portion is huge so we got some leftovers and we also got baklava to go.

I'm pissed at myself that it took me so long to have food from Fata Morgana! As a New York Jew, I was supremely comforted by the authentic food here. Got a lot of takeout that included pretty much the entire menu- shwarma, chicken, rice, pita, challah, hummus, babka, Israeli salad, date cookies, cabbage, and more. Also had a sabich sandwich, an Iraqi Jewish sandwich consisting of pita or laffa bread stuffed with fried eggplants, hard boiled eggs, chopped salad, parsley, amba and tahini sauce. I will say my favorite thing that I tried was the pita bread. It's so soft because they steam it, something I'd never heard of! If you're looking to get one item, I recommend this sandwich! Also appreciated how rich their babka is. It was the most moist, most chocolatey babka I have ever had, including homemade ones. All things Israeli found here! Authentic, high-quality, and comforting - what more could you ask for!

Came with my sister to try this place out. We started with the hummus. Omg it was huge! We weren't a fan of it cause it tasted weird like peanut butter. For entrees I got the baby chicken skewers. It was good you get to pick 2 sides as well. My sister got the chicken shawarma, it tasted good but it was cut into small pieces.

The food here is consistently tasty, with reasonable prices for a kosher meat restaurant in Scottsdale. The modern vibe and Israeli music add a nice touch. Service is quick, but it's more relaxed than typical American standards. One concern was the automatic 18% gratuity added for our party of three. It wasn't clearly mentioned on the menu or told to us beforehand. I would have left a 20% tip, but the lack of transparency about the charge was a bit off putting. Staff wasn't sure about if the charge was even added when asked. I might have just not caught it but would have liked to have known before hand even if I think they did deserve the tip.

You HAVE to visit this middle eastern restaurant. Great menu and authentic food from the region…read more Local, friendly staff, and great prices. Individuals and Families can choose from different options including shawarmas, gyros, or a full chicken meal combo for the whole family!

Inside & outside has a lot of seating but it is pretty lackluster inside decor wise. It probably does better for take out. Food wise it fell pretty short. I was excited to try a new local business and I love middle eastern/Mediterranean food so I figured why not go somewhere new. The gyro combo (not pictured) comes with fries and a drink. Compared to other local gyro spots, this one was on the smaller side. The flavor was good for the gyro meat but dry. Unfortunately the fries lacked flavor, had no seasoning, and was dry. My boyfriend said they tasted like they came straight from the freezer. The kafta kebab plate (pictured) comes with hummus, pita, rice, salad, and garlic dip. The kafta again, had good flavor, but was dry. The hummus really tasted super bland and the olive oil flavor didn't stand out. The pita was chewy and flat, also dry. The Greek salad again lacked flavor, seasoning, and dressing. The rice was good. The garlic dipping sauce was a highlight. Overall I am not sure if they were having an off summer day but there is another restaurant locally that I love and does these dishes better so I won't be returning to Bethlehem Kitchen.

I was browsing Uber Eats for Mediterranean food when I found Golden and realized they had something that looks an awful lot like Khachapuri (here it's on the menu as Aldo). So I abandoned my plans of delivery food and promptly made my way in to eat. We got a solid sampling of the menu: - hummus/foul - Aldo with cheese and an over easy egg (I think their default may be scrambled but they do over easy if you ask!) - stuffed grape leaves - labani + black olive flatbread - kufta with tomato sauce - shawarma chicken wrap Lord above, my heart was so happy. The foul is exceptionally garlicky. Perfectly so. My partner said the hummus was his favorite thing we ordered, and he's a pretty discerning dude! The Aldo was excellent. The grape leaves came out hot, which surprised me, but again - solid! Flatbread? Stellar. Maybe even better the next day. The kufta didn't particularly excite me, but I wasn't the one who ordered it, and my partner was happy. My shawarma wrap? Oh boy, that garlic sauce. They even perfectly portion the innards so your pickles aren't all stuck to one side and the fries to the other. You can have pickles in almost every bite! We also got several desserts to take home. I haven't sampled them yet, but the hazelnut baklava in particular intrigues me. Casual ambiance. Options for booths or tables, inside or outside. I am so thrilled to have found Golden - they'll be a regular spot for me!

Ate very little.... I ordered the lamb kabob....it was ok but pretty bland, looked like processed little meat balls. . Service was good and friendly, no owner on site. In past visits I loved their Asobuco but none was on the menu. That's what I wanted to order. There was free baklava ....wasn't looking for free....went up to the counter to order some. Then was given two out of a bunch of stacked containers behind the register. If I hadn't inquired wouldn't have known. In past visits they always walked around with a tray and offered. This was dry as well..... I do appreciate free but not dry. I was willing to pay. I probably caught them on an off night, business was good which is always a good sign. I'll give them another shot but won't order the Chicken Chips.

Some restaurants chase trends. Others just quietly keep making really good food year after year…read more This is one of those places. I'd been here several times years ago, and after coming back, I'm honestly wondering why I don't eat here more often. I ordered the chicken shawarma, a stuffed grape leaves platter, and hot tea. Everything was exactly what I hoped it would be. The chicken was well-seasoned, tender, and wrapped with the classic toppings, and the portion was fair for the price. Speaking of price, the value here is honestly hard to beat. The stuffed grape leaves platter came with hummus, tabbouleh, pita, and hot stuffed grape leaves. I had completely forgotten they serve them warm, and my brain needed a minute to recalibrate because I'm so used to cold dolmas everywhere else. Once I took a bite, though... yep. That's how they're supposed to taste. Soft, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. I ended up adding some of the hummus and tabbouleh to my shawarma, which made an already great sandwich even better. The service was just as impressive as the food. My server was genuinely kind, gave me a few extra minutes when I couldn't decide, checked in without hovering, and even offered to package my hot tea to go when he noticed I was still working on it. (For the record, ordering an entire pot of tea for one person was an ambitious life choice on my part.) The dining room isn't huge, and there's also a small market attached, which adds to the charm. This place reminds me that consistency is underrated. Years later, I came back, and it was just as good as I remembered. Great food, great service, great value. I'll try not to wait so long before my next visit.
