    The sign facing the street. I flipped it so you can read it.

    In town for volleyball . . . again, and needed some sustenance before our drive back home. Mr. Shawarma looked promising and it got the job done. This review is a bit of a mixed bag, since I'm going to include the reactions of my wife and son. First, it is a food court. You order at the counter and find a table in a common area. We had no issue, given that we were there on a slow, Sunday evening. The service was pleasant. The food: I ordered the mixed shawarma plate, which includes both chicken and beef shawarma, rice, hummus, pita, and a salad. The shawarma was a bit dry. I would have been down for some garlic sauce. I am at a 3.5. My wife got the chicken shawarma plate. Same as above without the beef. She's at a 3. My son got the gyro "wrap" and fries. I put 'wrap' in quotes because it was more of a gyro pita (like a taco). He agreed with his mom, a 3. The portions were substantial and, to be fair, we all finished our food. In the end, I recommend trying Mr. Shawarma. Peace!

    I ordered from here while in town. Love my chicken dishes. I don't have much to say as it was quick to go order. Got a chicken shawarma. Overall it was good and tasty. The only challenge was the chicken was a little dry and I had to add more sauce. I would probably try something different next time if in the area. Overall god experience.

    This is my go to place for hummus any time I'm in the area. Their other food is also delicious and portions are generous. It's tucked inside an apartment building and is food court style with multiple restaurants. Service is friendly and accurate.

    Visiting from Cali, wanted some healthy food and came across this place. Food is so delicious and fresh! I had the chicken plate with salad, no rice and hummus. The food was so authentic and delicious. The falafel had a crispy exterior and a soft, yummy interior. Personnel is very friendly and welcoming. I recommend this place.

    Seasoned 16. French Fries were hot and soft enough we chowed these down

    One of my favorite places to eat now! Will never forget my experience!! Best gyro in town my chicken shawarma was amazing and juicy

    Amjab has excellent customer service! Dessert of the day was the Baklava. When ordering a savory item from the menu...I must state the food is cooked with care and quality. On my cheat meal days, I enjoy the mixed grill item. It is comprised of one skewer each of beef shish kebab, shish tawook, and beef kafta. My dish is also accompanied with hummus, rice and salad.

    Today, I had a chance to try this new Middle Eastern Pl ace in town. I cannot rave enough about the hospitality and the quality of the food. I ordered the beef Shawarma, the chicken Shawarma, tabouli, hummus, and also picked up some banana pudding. The owner was kind enough to offer us the pistachio truffles. Everything we tasted was delicious. Fresh, and homemade. It took about 10 minutes to get the food and we couldn't wait to devour it. The hummus is by far my favorite as it is as authentic as it gets. The tabouli is a very close second and it was fresh with the perfect amount of dressing. The meat that was used in the beef Shawarma was so tender that it melted in my mouth. The same thing can be said about the chicken. Just the perfect amount of spices complimented this meal. The boat shop is located in an old brewery that has been turned into an apartment complex. If you are looking for authentic food, this is the place to go.

Once we decided on what we would like to order, we headed to the kiosk at the front and ordered, then waited for our food to arrive at the table.

There were sittings by the door, throughout the walk way and booths towards the end of the restaurant. They had the whole menu displayed behind the counter and a few of the desserts as well. We ordered the appetizer platter; which allowed us to choose three apps two try. My friend and I chose the falafel, grape leaves, and baba ghonush (which is served with 8 triangle pieces of pita bread). I got the kofte special wrap and my friend got the beef kebab wrap. Everything we got was amazing! The wrap was also nicely toasted on the outside, which gave it such an amazing texture. The combination of the char-grilled kofta with the vegetables inside was so good! Just thinking of it makes me want to go and grab another one. It was not dry and was honestly pretty filling. Very excited to go back and try other item!

We've enjoyed "sip and paints" here, New Year's Eve, when they offered brunch with crepes, and frequented when they had their vegetarian lunch buffet. Unfortunately, things have changed. 1. Atmosphere The décor hasn't changed. Still sleek, dimly lit, and romantic. The bathroom water wasn't working, and staff seemed aware of it when we mentioned it. How is that sanitary or up to code? Several of the chairs brought to our table were also broken, with bent legs a clear safety issue. It's typically packed on a Saturday like a dance club but it was nearly empty on a Saturday night which may be a reflection of our experience. 2. Service Our waitress was kind and attentive despite handling a large group, but the busboy was unprofessional. He started clearing plates while people were still eating and even asked my husband to reach across the table to hand over other guests' dishes. It made us feel rushed, even though the place wasn't busy. 3. Food My chicken shawarma was greasy, hard, sour, and unseasoned, almost as if the meat had gone bad. The potato balls were cut open which I've never seen and underwhelming. My husband and son's wings were over fried and tough, the spinach artichoke dip was clumpy and poorly blended, and others said the lamb chops were "okay." Honestly, the best thing I ate that night was the pita bread. 4. Overall Experience This used to be our go to for birthdays, Brady Street drag show viewing, and happy hour, but it's gone downhill. Between the sanitation issues, broken furniture, food quality, and rushed service, it no longer feels like "our spot". SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.... This was hard to write because I have so many great memories here and I wanted the experience to be better. Sadly, I won't be returning.

The inside is so well done, from the design and decor to the furniture and overall atmosphere. Love their large dining room, and the curved bar closer to the entryway. Visually all very nice. Recently, I dined outside for the first time ever though and that was also lovely. Patio sits among the hustle and bustle of the Third Ward. My husband and I ordered drinks first. He got the fig old fashioned-of course I tried it- and it was delightful. I'm a big martini fan so I went with their signature, made with gin, and garnished with feta-stuffed olives. I mean yesss x10. As if those olives weren't enough, we ordered the olive dish from the shareables menu, along with the whipped feta. That came with roasted grapes, pistachio, pomegranate, and mint. Talk about flavorful! They get ya on having to order an extra serving of pita bread though. From the mains we had the seared scallops with ricotta dumplings, along with the woodfire grilled hanger steak, all to share. More bold flavors, more happiness with our choices! Ended the meal with a well-made espresso martini. I've not met a dish I don't like here, and the overall dining experience is worth the price.

We had low expectations for a hotel restaurant, but Tre Rivali stands head and shoulders above typical hotel offerings. Service was friendly and staff was helpful and gave great recommendations on which dishes would be fastest. The Lamb Kawarma was absolutely delicious - fresh, tasty and quite filling for 2 people to share as a light dinner (we added a side salad). Getting the check delayed us a little, as our server disappeared and no one else wanted to take over her table. However, we'd definitely go again - but with a little more time to enjoy the food and ambiance.

    First time here…read more Food: We were excited to try some Somali/African cuisine. For beverages, we ordered the chai tea and the mango smoothie. I was expecting a plain chai tea, but what I received was actually a chai latte. What a wonderful surprise! It wasn't the type of chai latte I might expect from a local coffee shop, but it was better than many I've had. We started with a couple of veggie sambusas. They were excellent. Hot, crisp, and fresh, with a generous filling and served with a side of mint chutney. Together, they made a fantastic flavor combination. We also ordered hummus and pita bread. Both were fresh, tasty, and well presented. The final part of our meal was the Goat Platter. It arrived hot and fresh, with generous portions. The goat meat was delicious and tender. The serving was large enough that I took half home, and it will make great leftovers. Service: The gentleman at the counter was friendly and efficient. He was very attentive, bringing each item to our table. He seemed genuinely proud of the food, its presentation, and our reaction to it. There was also a woman in the back, whom I believe was doing most of the cooking, and I had a chance to thank her as well. Atmosphere: The restaurant is small and unassuming. It was clean and well lit, thanks to the large front windows. It appears that most of their business is takeout, but there are several tables available for dining in. We were the only people eating there during our visit, so it was very quiet. Overall: We were super impressed with this little spot serving excellent Somali/African food. The quality of the food, the warm service, and the generous portions made for a wonderful first experience. We'll definitely be back.

I've been to other Somalian spots where they cook the lamb so long that it's tender, but stringy and dry. Not this place - it still had it's succulence. The seasonings were on point. Both the chicken and beef sambusas were tasty - but in my opinion lacked the punch compared to other sambusas I've had. The chicken one was especially bland, but the sauce saved it. The chicken one was dry and had a shredded texture. I suggest making small dices to the chicken and mixing it the slightest amount of gravy to keep the chicken moist before folding it in the pastry. The service was really friendly. Everyone needs to go here now! I'll definitely be back
