We had a reservation so we were seated pretty quickly. There was a long line so I would definitely recommend getting reservations. Initially, the service was slow, and I'm not sure if it was because of how busy it was. We got our water quick but drinks and pita took a good 10minutes. It's not a quiet place, as they are busy, but worth the wait and trying the food. We ordered the Beirut platter and a mixed kabob platter. Both were portioned for 1 person each and it was so delicious. I would recommend!! We also tried the baklava, which was perfect in every bite. It wasn't super sweet or dry. read more

We were at the restaurant next door 21 Spices on Valentine's Day, when we discovered this place the first week it opened. For the first couples of years we dined here at least 3-4 X per season, but have stopped coming since after Covid for no particular reason. We came back for the first time in years, and were reminded how Outstanding the food is. You start off with the puffy bread. OMG!! The best bread ever. Comes out warm. Yummy. Then we had to get our favorite appetizer. It's Chef Rachid sampler platter and has a variety of mezzes. I highly recommend this appetizer to try different samplings of Turkish food. Be aware though, this sampler is eggplant heavy with 4 different preparations. All is delicious. 2 -3 types of hummus. The original is tasty, but we loved the beet one. See picture for the different samplings. For dinner, I had the branzino special; whole fish fillet. My husband had the half chicken. Both were delicious. Honestly the food is what you would expect in a high-end "chefy" restaurant - it was that well prepared with special spices. The vibe of this restaurant is very casual, with ceiling exposed with exhaust pipe running across. Seating is tight, especially for 2 people. Though the food is outstanding, we wouldn't bring out of town guests here who want to get a Naples experience. It would be great take-out however. They opened up a takeout counter since we were here last. Good idea. It was crowded the night we came, and have always been in prior years we have dined here. In future, we may just take-out if we can't get a table. The prices are reasonable. If they upgraded their dining decor, they could probably charge more. However, I don't think they are trying to compete with the 5th Avenue restaurants. For the most part, service was very good. Sophia was our waitress and she was exceptional. One of the waiters gave us a detailed explanation of each of the mezzes. The lady at the front desk reception was professional but not friendly. She sat us in a small 2 seater when there were open 4 tops. From a business perspective, I understand that they wanted to keep it open for guests with larger numbers than a couple. However, it makes dining not as comfortable. Overall, very good experience and will definitely come back. The food really is that good. read more

Unfortunately we are devastated to report that Kareem's has gone downhill :( ... the food is great the front of house this evening was a complete epic failure then some!!! I ensured the order taker was aware that the fattoush salad could not have tomatoes as their is a severe allergy to tomatoes. I communicated TWICE "no tomatoes pls" --it went in one ear out the other as they prepared it with tomatoes. Their response "you ordered wrong & we can't take it back." My wife ended up trashing the entire large chicken salad as she could not risk going to the ER on Christmas Day. Not acceptable we will NOT return!!! NEVER AGAIN!!! read more

We went to dinner at Kareem's tonight. Shared a plate of chef's appetizers and then had 2 main courses and 1 desert (pistachio ice cream). Everything was tasty. The price for chicken with some potatoes and a bit of venerable for 30$ is a bit too much! . Nice service. In general it was a good experience. read more

This is a lovely place inside and out, perfect for a family or romantic dinner. However, I needed lunch today, and the adjacent pizza shop has very bad reviews. The falafel sandwich plate with salad is gorgeous and huge, delicious and affordable, under $20! If they had better signage, the line would be out the door. Mediterranean food is healthy and delicious, perfect for South Florida. See you here next time! read more

Best Lebanese food I've ever eaten. Truly remarkable food. We started with the classic hummus and the falafel and then moved to the mixed grilled mashawi which included chicken shish taouk, kafta chicken, lamb rack, kafta lamb, roasted vegetables, Lebanese rice and onion salad (there are two big kafta pieces under the lamb chop in my picture but you can't see them; plenty of protein to share) . The quality and preparation of the meats blew me away. I was just in shock by all of the wonderful textures and flavors. Clearly, the person who owns this restaurant understands how to prepare meat. It was perfect. The service was warm and inviting and the restaurant decor was comfortable and well-lit. We are planning on going back this week again. I can't even talk about the bread. I also can't talk about the harissa or the garlic sauce/paste. Just go in and eat here. You will love it. The prices are a little higher than I expected but the quality and quantity of the mixed grill was plentiful. The falafel was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside and the flavor was divine. The hummus was creamy and disappeared with the unmentionable bread. The three items we ordered easily fed all three of us. We were so full that we didn't get dessert but we will try the baklava on our next trip. Bravo Kareem and Chef Rachid. You have a pretty special restaurant. read more

Had a wonderful and delicious experience at Kareem's Lebanese Kitchen, food, service andd ambience are excellent. Tabouleh and hummas were freshly made and deliciousThe braised lamb was tender and well seasoned. Salmon was cooked to perfection.

We have been here several times and each experience was consistently excellent. Our server was knowledgeable and very helpful. It was lively and busy. read more

What a great find. I had meetings on the west coast of Florida and found this place looking online. I'm so glad I did. Their bread is freshly made and the chicken shawarma is really good. I had a combination for lunch and also got to try their Fattoush salad. As a foodie, I definitely recommend this place and look forward to stopping by when I'm in the area again. read more

The food is so tasty with perfect seasoning. Chicken is not my favorite thing to eat out but their half a chicken was so succulent, both the white and dark meat The server was one of the best with lots of energy and suggestions on the food. read more

Ok, so undying can't give higher than a 3 for my experience. First off can't order online as it goes right to Grubhub. I wanted to pick up so ordered specifically and was handed the wrong plate after an hour wait. Then when I confronted the person taking the order he told me it's my error and would have to buy a whole other order. Rather than get pussed off I agreed and paid for a plain chicken kabob. 1.5 hrs later my food was like eating leftovers. Salad was dry , chicken was like a roofing shingle. Place has always had really good food but lately is just too scatterbrained and not sure if I will go back. read more

This is A MUST TRY! I think about this place daily and cannot wait to go back. The service was excellent with a very friendly server who was very knowledgeable about the food and attentive to detail. The ambiance was nice: very clean! The food was out of this world. We got the chef rachid platter for an appetizer and it was delicious medley paired with the complimentary bread. Hard to say which was the best on the platter! What stole the show was ultimately the lamb I got which was tender and BURSTING with flavor! Next time you are in Marco Island, make room for this restaurant! read more

The wife and I wanted to try something new. We have never had Lebanese food so we went today for lunch at Kareem's. Staff was polite as we entered. The restaurant is clean, bright, and inviting. Our waiter, Shawn, was outstanding. He recommended the Chef Rachid Platter to start off with; it was an assortment of their appetizers. Wow! Awesome way to be introduced to this type of food. The wife had Shish Taouk (chicken dish), and I tried the Chicken Farrouj. Both were amazing. The Baklava was a nice way to end the meal. We will go back. read more

Great Lebanese restaurant in Naples that offered sit down dinning, separate take out door, and catering. I will order catering next time I'm in Naples with a big group. Took my two year old with us to sit down and the staff was so kind to her. They had Highchair and a changing table. They offered her a sweet treat and extra bread to keep her happy. The bread is made in house and really good with hummus. The meat shawarma wraps were huge and delicious. We ordered the mixed platter to share and it was a little small but great mix of meats. The moroccan tea with fresh mint was a must try. read more

Last night, my boyfriend and I found this place not far from where we were staying. We're on vacation and had been spending a lot of time in downtown Naples. We wanted something different. It was a busy evening at the restaurant, which gave us a lot of hope for what our experience would be. The food was fresh, flavorful, and delicious! It completely surpassed my favorite place for Mediterranean food in Chicago. The fresh baked bread with the olive oil and spices were tough not to finish too fast. I had to be reminded that we still had food coming! We enjoyed the falafel appetizer which was wonderfully seasoned. Dip it in tahini sauce and the flavor was complete. (Make sure to ask for extra sauce.) My boyfriend had the Chicken Shawarma, a long time favorite of his. He loved this entree so much, it was gone in a flash! Luckily, I was able to sneak just one bite. I ordered my favorite - Kafta. It was a generous portion of ground lamb served with rice, roasted vegetables, bread, and hummus. I ate so much of the bread and the falafel, that I was too full to finish my dish. Nonetheless, I loved it and will be enjoying the leftovers later today! Service was very friendly. After we ordered, we got our food pretty quickly. The ambiance was lively! The only reason why this review isn't 5 stars is that, once the food was delivered to our table, it was a bit difficult to get a server's attention for more water, tahini sauce, and even our bill. All the servers were in constant movement. Perhaps they need to hire more servers - the restaurant was PACKED! Overall, I enjoyed my dining experience at Kareem's and will be back when we return to Naples. read more

Honestly it was pretty good food and I can get over this bit of rudeness because I understand places get busy and whatnot.

Went there on Sunday with a group of five at 3:30 in the afternoon. Service was very slow. Server was not really able to describe the food. I am very well-versed in Lebanese food and this was an OK version of that. The tabouli was great; garlic sauce was Great bread was fabulous everything else was just OK and two of our meals out of the five head hair in them.. read more

The food here was outstanding. The service was a little rough. We were the only people there and it took them 30 mins to make our food. They explained that whoever changed shifts in the back didn't start our order. The server never bothered to check. The table we were seated at also had some rice from the patrons before us. Back to the food, the hummus with garlic was delicious. I haven't had hummus that good in a really long time. The shawarma was also really well done. read more

Great spot and nice ambience. They have a drink similar to a "sangria" really good. My girlfriend and I ordered the Garlic Hummus with Beef, Beef Shawarma and the Baklava. All recommended! Service was great as well. :) read more
