This place is located in the heart of west side Cleveland. It's tiny, has limited space for seating. You may want to consider take out. The staff are so welcoming and nice. The sandwiches were delicious. I highly recommended you try it out read more

Levant Shawarma is a newer Mediterranean restaurant that offers halal chicken and beef items including shawarma, kefta kabobs and burgers. We ordered the shawarma chicken and also mixed chicken/beef plates with 2 sides. We tried the baba ghanoush, Fatoush salad and vegetable rice. Everything we had was very nicely flavored and generously portioned. They make the shawarma in house and all the ingredients are made fresh daily. We loved the toum/garlic sauce. The baba ghanoush was one of the best I've had in a long time; smoky flavor, a nice drizzle of good olive oil served with warm pitas! YUM! We then tried the Dubai cheesecake which was very nice with chocolate drizzle and a crunchy top. They make delicious mohalbea which is a Syrian desert pudding. It was very good too. Adib the owner nicely greeted us and also served us all our food. His shop and seating area was very clean, neat and tidy. We really enjoyed dining there and would definitely go back again. read more

I popped in to Levant Shawarma tonight and ordered (2) Build Your Own Bowls - one beef shawarma and one chicken shawarma. The rice pilaf is fantastic, the veggies are all crisp and flavorful, the sauces are all delicious, and the meat was really tasty. The portion was very generous - especially for the price point. And everyone who worked there was very nice. Just a wonderful meal! Would return any time. Recommended! read more

Came here on a whim while out and about after work. Food is FIRE! Fresh, quality veggies. I ordered a chicken shawarma bowl. Great portions (enough for 3 meals for me personally) and budget friendly. The customer service was phenomenal. Everyone was pleasant with a nurturing aura. I will definitely come back and I definitely recommend everyone to try. I also noticed a Dubai chocolate cheesecake. Looked DELICIOUS but I am not consuming sweets at the moment. This may be something to consider trying on your visit to Levant Shawarma read more

I tried a bowl the other day for the 1st time. It was great. Chix, with added hummus, garlic sauce, hot sauce, rice vermicelli & veggies. I was filling. It was worth the $12.99 price. FYI - I usually go late - after 8pm- the beef shawarma spit is bare when I'm there. I never asked so they could have beef in a pan from the spit. Chix has always been cooking on a spit. I haven't tried the beef yet. read more

Today was my first trip to Levant Shawarma. This is a small cozy spot, nothing too fancy but the owners and people who work there are super hospitable. My friend and I had a shawarma platter and a kafta sandwich. The fries were yummy, the kafta was great (although a bit light on the sauce). Now onto the shawarma. The highlight of the shawarma sandwich was the toum (aka heavenly whipped garlic dip). Toum is what dreams are made of. Be sure to ask for extra toum. Next time I would try the chicken (taouk) sandwich, I hope they add fries and coleslaw to it, and of course: toum. read more

"Pasha Turkish Kitchen" is just the right place. The restaurant is in a blue collar neighborhood in Lake County. It is owned and operated by some of the nicest, most genuine people you could ever meet. They just reopened after being closed for 3 weeks for a complete update to all the building major systems and a quick refresh all-round. There is a large bar and two dining rooms with plenty of seating. But don't let all that room fool you. They have such a great following it would be difficult to get in without reservations. The Mediterranean menu is extensive. There is absolutely something for everyone regardless of your taste and diet style. If you check out their menu online at "https://pashaturkishkitchen.com/" you will see beautiful pictures of every item they serve... making choosing easy. And believe me, everything is wonderful. We were greeted by a marvelous young man when we entered and quickly seated by the owner at a table reserved with our name on it. Shortly thereafter a very pleasant young lady with a ready smile greeted us as our server for the evening. She quickly filled our water glasses, told us about the evening special, and took our drink order. In a little while she returned with our drinks. After answering several questions she took our order for the evening. My wife and I split a "Sheppard Salad" which experience told us was going to be too big for just one person. It is a marvelous fresh combination of chopped tomatoes, onion, cucumber, green pepper, parsley with olive oil and vinaigrette dressing. I ordered the absolutely marvelous "Lamb Chops" 4 meaty chops perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. My wife enjoyed the "Lamb Shish Kebab" which was every bit as good as the chops. Our guests enjoyed a similar meal and we were all thrilled with the quality. After dinner we enjoyed an excellent cup of coffee and great "Rice Pudding" Thick and creamy milk based dessert that has a bubbly golden brown top with cinnamon. By that point we had only enough room to split one dessert. This is a really wonderful neighborhood, family restaurant. The food is excellent, the service and personnel are amazing and the prices will blow your mind. When you're in "that mood" there is no better place to be.
