Was in the area and saw this spot with great reviews, so I thought I'd check it out! Ian was such a gem and helped me get the best meal tailored to my likes! He was amazing. I was really excited about trying a bunch of the dips but also wanted to get the shawarma and he helped me make a custom platter. And omg! It was AMAZING! Great value for money, great flavor, great vibe! Can't wait to be back. If you're in the area, check it out!!
I can't really speak on the service or ambiance since my boyfriend picked up the food for us. However, the food itself was the most inauthentic and dry Mediterranean food I've ever eaten. The presentation looks delicious and portions are obviously very well served, but I guess they had to make up for their lackluster taste and quality. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma Platter sans hummus, extra rice instead. The chicken was ok. It was barely seasoned, pretty dry, and tasted better when I ate it cold if I'm going to be completely honest. Yes, it LOOKS seasoned, or maybe that's just the char on the chicken, but I promise you, it's not. The rice, I'm pretty sure just had turmeric on it for the color, because it had absolutely no flavor, not even a pinch of salt, and tasted dry and like it had been sitting out for hours. Almost stale. The only saving grace was the warm and soft pita bread and their garlic sauce. That's literally it. Very disappointing and definitely not worth the hype. Maybe their chicken kabob is better? Don't know and will most likely not try it. Have never had Mediterranean food this flavorless and dry. And it definitely did not taste authentic.
We needed a meal in route to our house and pointed our GPS toward another local place but decided to try this instead. We were convinced we'd get our food quicker here and that it would be flavorful. We were mostly correct: the service was good, we ordered quickly and our food came out in about 8-10 minutes. The shawarma platter was a good amount of chicken, rice, and hummus but there were only two triangle pita slices. I loved that the pitas were warm! The chicken and rice needed salt; I added some to the portion I ate at the restaurant and other seasonings to the portion I took home and ate the next day. The salt brought the flavor out better. I really loved the spread they brought with it, but my husband didn't like his, so mixed reviews there. The restaurant is designed and decorated really nicely, but it wasn't as clean as it could have been. Also the restroom (one, single use, all gender) was not clean. The toilet seat was full of water and it made me pivot and exit before I even fully entered. Parking is easy. There's a large shared lot.
Super delicious and freshly made. Met a new friend we made before it was time to catch a flight back to PHX and this place was close and good reviews. So glad we picked it as the seasoning was delicious the space sets the scene and the ingredients are the star. Delicious from start to finish and some unique hot sauce I've never had back home that was very delicious with just the right heat so it complimented the food perfectly if you like some kick.
Decent! Not the best in the world but pretty good, and walkable from a ton of the hotels in the area. The hummus and pita made the platter worth getting. Came to I want to say $22 after getting a bottle of water also, so it's not cheap.
Decided to try something new this Saturday. I ordered my food from Uber eats. I have never eaten lamb before so I decided I was going to give it a shot. I was undecided as to what I wanted so I ordered three different things. 1. Falafel 2. Grilled Veggie Plate 3. Lamb Chops When I open the platters I felt like the colors just jumped out at me. The veggie plate was beautiful. It consisted of grilled tomato bell peppers squash and maybe zucchini I'm not sure. I asked them to add onion because I love onion. It was on top of a bed of yellow rice. It also had I'm assuming was Hummus on the side and pita bread. This was very delicious and much needed today. The lamb chops. I was apprehensive because I was told lamb can have a gamey wild taste, however that was not the case with these chops. They were flavorful, I could taste the Rosemary and the thyme, they will also tender and not overdone. Delicious. It also came with the rice and the hummus and the pita bread and it also came with a sauce. I don't know the name of the sauce but I pretty much didn't use it. In between eating those two different dishes because yes I did try both of them, I also have falafel. Very tasty. I was very pleased with my meal and I will definitely try them again and maybe even stopping to the restaurant.
Just a small place in this newer building in the area. When you walk in the smell hits you and you know you have struck gold! Amazing Mediterranean food! I got the Beef Kafta plate. It was super yummy. The rice was literally some of the best I have ever had! The hummus was good too. Great place if you are in the area. I will be back for sure!

We were looking for a dog-friendly place to eat near Atlanta airport. This restaurant came up on Yelp search. Food was fresh and delicious. There was outdoor patio seating for us and our dog. Staff was helpful and friendly - they even brought our food out to the table for us. Although the patio faced the street it was pretty quiet and comfortable in the shade. Definitely recommend visiting if you are in the area. read more

Great portions and good food. Rice was a little bland and the hummus was ok, but I liked the sides being offered as part of the meal. Lamb was a good flavor and cooked well. I also enjoyed the mint tea. read more

Pros: Delicious lamb chop platter (lamb chops doesn't get any better than this in ATL/ Hapeville ) and tasty hummus plate , grape leaves and baba ganoush. The host Sareef and the entire staff is very friendly and generous with their hospitality. It's also located in a great location with excellent parking. Cons: none Wishing this restaurant gets the recognition it 100% deserves. read more
Stopped here one afternoon because we were craving Mediterranean cuisine. This was our first time but not our last time here. We ordered lamb chops and falafel platter. The food was delish and plentiful. Good service with a smile. We will be back. read more

Walked over while staying at La Quinta! Fast, friendly, fresh (and hot!) The veggie sampler is just what this vegetarian needed after traveling in. Thank you! read more
The pics don't do the delicious food any justice. Everything was absolutely amazing. The taboule was fresh I did wish it had a tiny bit more lime. But it was still very delicious. The chicken kafta was everyone's favorite of the three items. The rice was good. The hummus was excellent and I loved the garlic sauce. The gyro plate was also tasty. Loved everything. Would definitely go back to try the rest of the menu. The restaurant was pretty small only a few tables. Definitely set up more as a take out spot. The service was fast and courteous. read more
They were open at a fairly late time on Sunday night after I'd flown in to ATL, so I stopped in to pick up some dinner. The facility is super clean, which is always a good thing when you eat out. I like that they have a clear partition between the customers and the cooking/food prep areas, because you can see what they're doing (that area was super clean as well and they practice good food handling. I ordered the gyro sandwich (which I THOUGHT was a sandwich, but is actually served similar to a burrito-style) which came with fries - vs. the plate which comes with rice and salad. OK so this is a 4 star review due to the person who was at the cash register. She was just so short and a little rude and no, not just with me. The gentleman ahead of me and this couple who ordered after me. She needs some serious customer service training. Otherwise, took my food to the hotel and was very impressed all over again with the "bang for my buck" at the size of my 'sandwich'. It was so tasty and LOADED with gyro. They definitely do not skimp. It'd definitely recommend this spot - for the food and guarantee of good hygiene. read more

Impressive is the first of many complimentary words I would use to describe this place. I love a neat and clean dining establishment, and La Shia Kabab definitely has that under control. Their menu choices are very attractive, to the point that I wanted to try a number of items in my first visit. I resigned to returned immediately so I could try all of em. The salmon, the shrimp, shawarma and Krafts, and a few more. Not being a big beef eater, on my first visit I got the Chicken Shawarma, went back the next day and got the Chicken Kafka. The Kafka is good, but the shawarma wins. I appreciated the friendly service and very short wait for my food too. I'm tempted to do the salmon tomorrow, but we'll see. ....Ok, so I'm adding to the review after another visit, for the salmon. It was very good. The kind of good that makes me take smaller bites for fear of it being all gone. Can you believe that as I'm writing this I'm deciding to go back today for either some a la carte shrimp and grilled veggies or La Shish Burger. read more
Good spot, not great, but definitely good! I had the Mixed Meat Dinner Special here--Grilled Chicken Tender, Beef Kofta, Gyro, and a Falafel served over Rice with a Salad. The Chicken Tender was good, but a little dry. The Beef Kofta was excellent, and the Gyro was good. The one falafel ball included in the special was good (hard to make a bad falafel, and also hard to make a great falafel). I got a side of hot sauce (it's hot!), which was very much needed. The pita on the side is a nice touch, but it was so crispy, as opposed to soft (how I would have preferred it to be). For $12.99, this is a good filling meal...but I'm used to a more filling meal for $6 from a Halal Cart in NYC. read more
After an all day flight from LAX today, I looked for a good place to get some food. I literally was about to chew my arm off, being up since 3 am. Called in the lamb chops, and it was ready about 15 minutes later. Place is clean and service was nice. I saw them cook 4 lamb chops but the guy only gave me three. They was weird. Was he going to eat the other one? Portions were not big, but lamb and rice was super delish! Wasn't impressed with their hummus. All in all good taste was excellent, but fire could have used that 4th lamb chop as they were small. If ever here again I would dine here for sure!! read more

We were staying at the La Quinta Inn about a block away and checked Yelp for places to eat in the area. We chose La Shish Kabob because it was in walking distance plus it was open until 9 pm on a Sunday. They have seating outside and inside. I ordered the veggie sampler minus the grape leaves. It came with falafel, my favorite, as well as baba ghonush, tabouleh and hummus. It is called a sampler, but was more than enough for a meal, and it was absolutely delicious. The staff was friendly and we got our food quick. I definitely want to eat here again! read more

I ordered the Chicken Shwaorma platter. ON POINT!!! Hummus was good as well. Just remind them you want a drink with your food. I had to pay twice. No big deal, but one ticket would have been easier. Otherwise, definitely recommend!! read more
Located in a strip mall off Virginia Avenue, this is a great addition to the area. Some of the best Mediterranean food I have had. I came in for a quick dinner to go. Being my first time, I asked about what they did well and they responded by asking what protein I preferred. This lead to the lamb shank meal. Slow braised, lamb shank has to be prepared well ahead of time. My shank was perfect, tender and moist. The sides of rice and salad were excellent. The rice was light and fluffy, perfect for soaking up meat juices. The salad was fresh and none of the leaves were wilting from sitting in a bin. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu. read more

The lamb was great! I usually get the shawarma chicken, but upon recommendation of the lamb, I would say I would get it again. I had the chops so I would try the lions next Morehouse (SpelHouse) Homecoming! read more
