There is one closer to me so I think I will be visiting there real soon. I got a toasty Big Chicken Shawarma wrap. It was stuffed full of fresh ingredients. Every single ingredient complimented the other I can't even describe it. It was a nice size and I ate it all. Absolutely delicious. I don't think I've had a toastier wrap ever. It was perfect. Pics included! A nice relaxed atmosphere with apparently several locations. I would encourage you to try one!

Great spot for a quick, nutritious and filling lunch! I stopped by after landing at the Albany…read moreairport in search of a casual bite to eat before beginning a road trip and was fully satisfied. The young lady at the counter helped guide me through their menu options and made sure that I selected an option that would be best for my dietary preferences. Pro tip - the brown rice is cooked with chicken stock so if you're vegetarian, go for the regular white rice. I ended up with the falafel bowl and added most of their veggie toppings as well as the tahini sauce, hot sauce, and a lemon vinaigrette sauce. Sauce me up. The serving size was generous and everything tasted fresh. Just what I needed to fuel the rest of the day's adventures.

Excellent! Don't miss this place! Wow! The food is so fresh and so good, so many fresh flavors! I…read moregot the chicken kebab bowl. Chicken meat was moist even without white sauce. They don't drown it in white sauce unless you want it that way. The brown rice was flavored so well! You can choose white or brown. They give you all the toppings you want and they're all fresh, high quality. There are so many tangy, delicious flavors all together! Chicken is grilled fresh, so you have a 10-15 min wait, but I like that rather than premade chicken. It's a quiet, clean, peaceful restaurant with plenty of seating. Smells clean. They're very popular. People come to eat or for takeout. But you wouldn't know. Service was perfect! Shri was fast, efficient, so respectful, asking everyone how they like the food. She really welcomed me and every customer. I wish all people at such places were like her! Generous with servings and respectful, she looked like she really wants you to enjoy and come back! They have lamb chops, salmon, shrimp kebabs, all sort of Mediterranean foods. They won't skimp on toppings. You'll be full and want to return! Highly recommend!

Before Mamoun's Falafel, I would have confidently told you that I'm not a falafel person. Turns…read moreout, I just hadn't had good falafel before. And now that I have, it's actually a bit of a problem -- because whenever I travel and order falafel somewhere else, it almost always ends in disappointment. Mamoun's completely changed my opinion. The color, the texture, the seasoning, and that perfectly crispy bite in every mouthful -- whatever their secret is, this is the falafel that made me love falafel. The owner is also one of the kindest and most welcoming people you'll meet. Always polite, well-dressed, and genuinely warm. If you see him there, say hello -- he's a pleasure to chat with. Beyond the falafel, I've tried most of the platters on the menu. The kebabs are very flavorful and juicy. The baba ghanoush, hummus, and falafel are consistently fresh and delicious. The bourani might actually be my favorite way to eat spinach, and the mjadra is a fantastic, flavorful alternative to the usual white rice. I've been coming here for years and the quality has never changed -- which is rare and worth appreciating. I sincerely hope it stays exactly the same for many years to come. PS: unfortunately they are open just for take out since Covid-19

Their sauce is fresh as well, and you have to try the mint lemonade. Fantastic! The owner is so friendly and sweet and they have been here for years.

I've been introduced to Karam's food by a coworker who spoke very highly of the food, and so far…read morethe two experiences were facilitated by that coworker while I have yet to come here myself. I do hear that they only do takeaways and there's no tables or chairs. The chicken Tikka masala curry has been a big hit both times, and the enjoyment of the incredibly rich and creamy sauce and flavourful chicken keep me from wondering about the calorie count = it's THAT good. I look forward to trying any number of things on my list off their menu, including biryani and samosa.

The sauce is thick and the chicken is tender. I hate watery masala sauce and this sauce does not disappoint. The chicken kabab is some black magic stuff. It's a burst of so many spices! They do not skimp on portions and the price is very fair for all the food you get. Do yourself a favor and make haste to Karam!

Nothing has come close. When I come to a decent sized city I look out for good restaurants to try. I was excited to see how the falafel was at Mazadar. Walking in I was greeted by friendly staff. There was a casual atmosphere. The felafel was the best I've ever had. I've had felafel all over the world in authentic restaurants. This was the best. From the bread to the balls to the salads to the sauces. Pure perfection. Everything was so fresh and so delicious.
