First time trying this place out and did not disappoint! Best humus i have tried by far. Service was also great and kind. Will be visiting more! read more

I absolutely love the food here. I hope more people see this and try the food.They will not regret it. The service is impeccable.The ambience is wonderful. I would suggest to order ahead of time either dining in or to carry out. Because this is not fast food, it is made by an artist and she makes every plate with love and you can tell read more

I have been eating here about every 3 weeks for over a year. That's not often enough. Well worth the half hour drive. My favorites are the cauliflower, falafel & eggplant wraps. Superb appetizers too. The funghi mushrooms are superb as are the grape leaves. The labana is almost as good & baba ghanouj. The house salad is excellent. I have not ordered any of the meat dishes but they surely do smell great. My grandson says the chicken shawerma & chicken kabob are outtasite. All is made to order so relax & wait for it. read more

The food was amazing! I would post pictures but we were so hungry and inhaled our food. We ordered the sample platter for 2 and added a mushroom appetizer....everything was fantastic. Food was great and definitely with the wait. It's the motto here be kind and patient and you will be rewarded with an excellent meal. read more

I recently attended a holiday party at a friend's house. They usually order catering from local places that make exceptional food. This visit was a little different because the food was amazingly good. As we conversed over dinner, I definitely had to stop and mention just how delicious the food was and ask where it was from. I really enjoyed the hummus, falafel, chicken shawerma, beef shawerma, saffron rice and the dolmades. Everything was soo delicious, my absolute favorites were the addictive hummus and the perfectly seasoned chicken shawerema. I highly, highly recommend a stop in here. If you are doing carry out then please remember to call ahead because everything is made from scratch to order. In other words, it takes time to put everything together. read more

Food was delicious. Size of portions are large. Our party had a wrap, falafel , hummus, and a special ( which feed 2 ) Food was cooked to perfection. Taste was amazing. We also had a mushrooms in a sauce not sure of the name it was suggested to us by the owner. It was so good. We put it on the rice. It was creamy, savory and just delicious. This place has a small dining room we ate there. It seemed popular for takeout. If you have never been here please give it a try. A++++++ read more

Mishkenut Mediterranean - Chicken Shawarma wrap - Mediterranean Near Me - Munster, Indiana

I called ahead and picked up food to go for me and my friends. Hal was really nice and kept me updated on the slight delay when I arrived. If you're in a hurry or have some place to be, this probably isn't the place for you that day. The food is fresh and made to order. The food itself was great. My friends and I tried the combination platter, shrimp, mushrooms, and tabulah salad. Everything was cooked well and full of flavor. I plan to visit again for sure. read more

Mishkenut is our favorite go to spot for some of our middle eastern favs! The owner is amazing , hospitable and passionate about what she does . The food is fresh! we love the hummus , falafel, chicken shawarma raps, and the veggie plate. Veggies are always cooked well but not soggy! read more

Mishkenut Mediterranean - veggie plate with chicken. - Mediterranean Near Me - Munster, Indiana

I hadn't been here in awhile, am so glad I went. More importantly I will be back. We started out with Tzaziki dip and pita. It was delicious, and also different from what I was used to. Then ordered the combo plate and 2 of us ate on it and still has some food to bring home. If you are in a rush this may not be the place for you. They told us it would be a wait but it was worth waiting for. All of the food on the combo was delicious- Kafka, chicken Swarma, falafel, chicken, beef and of course rice and hummus. read more

Mishkenut Mediterranean - Combination plate - Mediterranean Near Me - Munster, Indiana

Holy cow, this place lives up to the hype. I'd heard great things, and they're all true! The food, including their house made raspberry iced tea, is bursting with flavor and made to perfection. It's a nice quiet place to sit down and eat, but the ease of ordering ahead as an option will be my choice next time. Easily a new favorite. Still drooling over my beef shawarma wrap and dreaming of the next time I can get it. read more

Possibly best beef Shwarma I ever had it's insanely fire oh wow if you don't try it you are missing out also the lady who works there is super nice thank you very much read more

I ordered the Shrimp sauteéd shrimp in garlic. It was absolutely amazing. The owner recommended that if I love seafood to try their salmon. I will be back!!! read more

Always delicious and the chef/host is attentive and personable. It's a favorite for sure! Best to call ahead and place an order because she is in demand. Such healthy food freshly made! read more

I rarely ever write bad reviews, but the owner/worker here is one of the rudest women I've ever dealt with as a customer. I've eaten here before, and since there are no other Mediterranean options in the area, I've just dealt with her consistently being short-staffed and downright mean. Very long wait times for food and having to deal with her bad attitude is not worth it. Do yourself a favor and head over to Olive Leaves in Highland to get your fix instead! You don't get to treat your customers badly and still expect to deserve their business. read more

Listen. The people who have bad things to say about this place need to realize a few things. Right now, one woman runs this place. She has one server at best to help. When you come in, it may look empty. And she may honestly tell you that it's busy and you'll have a wait. That's because tons of people do takeout orders here. So even if it's an empty dining room, she is in fact busting her a** in there. She's not trying to discourage you, she's just being honest because she's probably tired of people complaining about wait times. So if you're impatient, go somewhere else besides this delightful hole in the wall. If you want a leisurely meal that tastes great, then hang around. We started with the falafel. The outside was crispy. The inside was moist and full of flavor and spice. We also had the mushrooms. I don't know if the mushrooms were fresh vs canned, but the sauce had good flavor. I had the chicken kebab entree, which was huge with a ton of chicken and rice with some accompanying vegetables. The chicken was juicy with just the right char. The rice was aromatic and fluffy. My husband got the cauliflower falafel wrap which was also quite tasty and bursting with fantastic tzatziki sauce. Our server was very kind and made sure we were taken care of. The digs are simple and unadorned. It has a diner/cafe feel. Our whole meal, two appetizers, a large entree, a large fat wrap, and even fries on the side (I would pass on the fries) was around 44 dollars before tip. A huge value for what amounts to a middle eastern home cooked meal. read more

Our first restaurant on our car trip south. It was great! Staff is nice, we enjoyed the Mish- combo plate. The meats are delicious along with tasty rice, hummus and pita. Mint tea is excellent read more

Food was great, however, if your menu list at $28.99, a customer should never, ever get a bill with a charge of $34.99! I understand if cost have gone up and you need to adjust your prices. I can even understand if you haven't updated your menu. But I can't understand if you don't tell the customer of the new pricing! That's just bad business sense if not outright deceptive practices! The fact is this country has historically charged Black people more. You're setting yourself up for failure if you don't do the obvious! read more

Mishkenut Mediterranean - Mediterranean Near Me - Munster, Indiana

This is my favorite restaurant in NWI and has been for ages! I grew up here and loved coming throughout the years. Even when I lived in Lincoln Park and West Hollywood, I would have to come back whenever I visited my family. I live in the area again and am so glad I stopped by again. I am pescatarian and have been vegan, vegetarian, and a meat eater throughout the years, so I've been able to try the entire menu and have always loved my meal. Also, I have my dad, brother, and some friends are very picky and they have loved dining at Mishkenut, too. Anyway, I drove my mom to her optometrist and we came by for lunch. The place is always clean and is decorated with really great items from the Middle East. The playlist was awesome today! I loved the songs that were playing and kept Shazamming the ones I didn't know. Hal, the owner, was very welcoming from the get go and attentive, friendly, and happy. I don't get the negative reviews about the service at all. She treated us so kindly and did so with the other patrons that walked in. Can't wait to go back again and again! read more

Great food and funny people :) chill vibes - I highly recommend for the nice service.

Excellent food. First time. We tried a variety of menu items. All were outstanding Will be going back read more

Delicious food! Hummus was creamy and packed with flavor. Falafel was A+. Grape leaves with lamb and rice were homemade. We split the Mish special, plenty for 2 people, chicken and beef. The rice was PERFECT. Be prepared to take your time and enjoy the meal. Good things come to those who wait! Everything is made fresh to order and all the patrons seemed to understand that good things come to those who wait. Parking behind building, very convenient. Super cute place and you leave feeling like you were just visiting a friend who made you a really special meal. read more

I love this place. Hal does such a great job. Food is great and nice comfortable atmosphere. Remember to be patient and kind, this is nook for locals not a fast food drive through. read more

Mishkenut is an authentic Mediterranean restaurant. You have to wait because everything is made to order -fresh. The owner is a one person show. She is kind and caring and desires you to enjoy your order as much as she did preparing it. If you don't want to wait, I suggest that you place your order online. It is worth it! read more

For takeout only, this place is a solid 5 star. I especially enjoyed the steak and hummus. The packaging was well done and thorough, giving confidence that the food will get home in one piece. The minus one star is due to the stickiness of the floors inside, as well as the somewhat unfriendliness of the employees. read more

This food is amazing never disappoint! We travel for this rich and freshly made food. I love that she not only takes her but that our food tastes exactly how we imagine. She is a one woman arm. I love it so much one of my favorite restaurants top tier! read more

I ordered ahead for pick-up service. The phone order was pleasant, and she answered a few questions that I had about the menu. Parking behind the restaurant is super convenient. The order was completed on time and the food was amazing. The lamb chops were perfectly cooked, rice and veggies nicely seasoned and the HUMMUS was outstanding! If you like mediterranean food, Mishkenut Mediterranean should be on your "Go-To" list. read more

Every time we get Mishkenut, we're absolutely in love. We normally get carry-out, and the food is still so flavorful and fresh when we get home. The best part about Mishkenut though is the owner. She is so kind, and you can tell she really puts love and care into the food prepared. We look forward to getting food from here every time we're in the area! read more

This is such a gem in The Region! We caught it on a quiet night and got to know the owner a bit, which was a bonus. She recommended the Mish Special with which we order labana (or labne), one of our favorites. The special itself is for 2 or more people with a number of different meats from steak to chicken to kufta. It would be splitting hairs if I had to rank each as it was phenomenal across the board. The hummus and labana were also fantastic as was the pita (it wasn't dried out or blah like you get at some places). The place itself is pretty simple but it works here. There is enough culture to create a nice atmosphere and a place we will definitely revisit! read more

Food was 10/10 however....i dined in. The wait was about an hour for the food and most of the other tables were full of ppl waiting for their food, so it was a bit awkward being the only one eating in the place. If I ever go back, I'd definitely do take out. read more

Good food, dependable quality. Even tho they serve meat, it's really easy to eat vegan there, too. We've been regulars every Sunday & they even catered our small wedding. Sometimes they get really busy because lots of people want to eat there. If you haven't tried it, you should! read more

Hal is amazing. My father introduced me to her place. Best restaurant in town. She goes above 5 stars. The food is always to much for what you pay. EVERYTHING she makes is amazing. It's all whole made by her. She's a true professional. She needs to win the American classic award. 100 percent the best. read more
