Service is very friendly, and as quick as possible, considering that stuff seems to be made to order. I ordered a chicken kebab platter which comes over a bed of basmati rice, possibly with saffron. Whatever the rice tasted great and it wasn't dry like at a lot of places. The chicken was marinated in a tangy yogurt-spice mix, grilled and topped with a tahini sauce. Delicious! As sides I got mujadara and roasted vegetables which were also tasty. I'll be back for takeout for sure in the future.

"Bodega-like Mediterranean Grill & Grocery in Parkwood area of Durham"…read more This place is WAY off the beaten path for most, but I'm so happy to have gotten to try it out. Nestled in a little strip between a Muslim school and a mosque is this grill and grocery. We came on a Wednesday evening, and almost every table was already taken by diners. You order your food at a counter, and it has the Middle Eastern foods you'd expect-- kofta, shawarma, gyros, falafel, baba ghanouj, hummus, baklava, etc. I opted for the lamb gyro sandwich with a side of baba ghanouj, and my dining partner had the falafel sandwich. They call your number when it's ready. Food took maybe 10 minutes to receive, so we browsed the market area. It's not a huge selection, but very traditional-- nice seeing so many labels in Arabic, and along with standards (e.g., canned fava beans for Ful Medames), they also had things like frozen chopped mulukhiyah leaves-- that's definitely a rarer sight. Lots of good spices too. The food was EXCELLENT. The lamb was juicy and perfect (unlike what another Yelp review said), the tzatziki sauce was delicious, and the baba ghanouj was perfectly cooked and textured. I had a small bite of the falafel, and it was indeed one of the best I've had in the US. Price was fair, too-- the sandwiches are all under $10 before tax and tip, and making it a combo with side and drink cost just something like $2.50. And service was friendly-- although they called out numbers, they did walk out with the food to try to find and bring you your dishes. And while it was an older space, it was overall still generally clean. Overall, I'd VERY happily come back.

Hot melted butter is drizzled over the top to make it the dish rich and savory. A scoop of yogurt helps to balance it out and a wedge of charred tomato and bell pepper garnish the dish. All served in a long clay dish. This dish is not always available but it is on the menu. If it's available I highly recommend it. It's a bit indulgent and I couldn't eat it every day, but it is unique and delicious and the best Iskender I've ever had.

We ordered the Mezza plate which is like a selection of appetizers. We selected Tzatziki ( yogurt dip) , salad, dolmas (stuffed grape leaves). It was all quite healthy which is why we chose Mediterranean type food, in this case a Turkish style. The ambience was very neat and clean. It is very modern and upbeat. I would try them again if I return to the area.,

I can't say enough good things about Odeh's Mediterranean kitchen. It's no wonder they are so busy…read moreand every server was busy delivering delicious dishes to every table in the packed dining room on a Tuesday night. I first discovered Odeh's when it was deemed the favorite restaurant by our local Yelp ambassador Erik and they had just a few tables in a small space with just counter service. Since then they have grown to add a larger dining room, table service and expanded their already delicious menu. There is nothing bad here and you can find something for every taste. I usually go with some sort of chicken dish but my husband has tried many of their other favorites and has loved them all. The portions are generous and I usually leave with a container for the next day.
