We arrived just before noon and all three of us ordered bowls with falafel, hummus, and other veggies. Our bowls were assembled while we waited. However, there was not enough falafel already prepared for all three of our orders, so we told that one order would be delivered to our table. It arrived a few minutes later with three additional pieces added to the order, which we shared. That was certainly a wonderful gesture from the staff. The hummus, baba ganoush, fresh veggies, and sauces were all fresh and delicious. Naf Naf provided us with a very tasty and delicious lunch. I would definitely go back to try other items on their menu. Clean restaurant! Friendly staff! Great food! Five stars! read more

I ordered a Build Your Own Plate with double chicken shawarma, rice, and Nafziki sauce ($13.25), along with two sides of rice and a side of chicken for my daughter. After tax and a 15% tip, the total came to $27.42. Unfortunately, the Build Your Own Plate portion was shockingly small -- the container barely had any food in it. For the price, the value just isn't there. Very disappointing experience. read more

Sadly, this great delivery and take out place is no longer reliable. Yesterday's take-out was just okay, kind of small. My dal was inedible, tasting like a bowl boullion- no spices just salt on salt! Our sandwich fillings were separated like a bento box placed in a pita with the hummus squished in the bottom corner. Changing their delivery from restaurant drivers to Door Dash meant means they no longer accept responsibility for our 2 hour delivery time and incorrect orders. read more

I've only ordered delivery through DoorDash so take my review with that in mind. I absolutely LOVE the fries from Naf Naf. They're thin and curled but wide like a steak fry, and even though some of them are cold by the time they get to my house they're still crispy and delicious!! I usually order two cups of fries for myself. Their crispy chicken is actually crispy and still juicy inside but there is a really thick breading on there just in case that's not your thing. The rice and couscous is always moist and tender, the veggies are fresh and flavorful, and the new tomato based sauce they have is delicious! I'm not a fan of many of their sauces besides the lemon vinaigrette and I'm a big fan of sauce usually so I'm not sure what it is but I just don't like the flavors. The pitas are big enough to use two or three to eat a build your own bowl (I like to get a bowl and stuff my pitas with the bowl so it's all mixed and I can add what I want in there). You get A LOT of food for the price. I paid roughly $30 for a BYOBowl, extra pita, extra vinaigrette, and a kids meal with crispy chicken 2 sides and a drink. And if you sign up for their app you can get points for rewards! Definitely one of my go-to's for a light and fresh lunch or dinner. read more

Naf Naf Grill - Build Your Own Bowl, Kids Meal, Sauces, Fountain Drink, Naf Fries, Extra Pita - Middle Eastern Near Me - Eden Prairie, Minnesota

I got the chicken shawarma bowl and my husband ordered the steak bowl. I thought the chicken was slightly better but it was still pretty dry. I think they give you a decent sized portion of everything here and I like how the bowls come with a pita bread. The pita bread with hummus on the side is my go to, I have to always order it! I like naf naf a lot but I think this time, the chicken was a bit too dry for my liking and the hummus and tahini sauce saved the day. Service was quick and the tables were clean. read more

Naf Naf Grill - Middle Eastern Near Me - Eden Prairie, Minnesota

Service was ok. The food is always excellent and quick. Careful with the sauces as some of them can be very spicy.

I have never tried Mediterranean food before. I'm an adventurous eater so I gave it a shot. I had no idea what to order so I'm being a little "kind" since I don't want to knock something that could be on my end and not theirs. I had chicken with onions, rice and a garlic sauce. The food was fresh, the staff was nice. The food itself wasn't bad just was different and I'm sure if I was more aware of "what" to order it would have been even better. My only critique would be that places like this "deli style" where you have to pick each piece, should have "preset" options for those of us who have no idea so we can try something that is meant to work well together. Otherwise, it was nice. read more

Great food. Clean. Good service. Would definitely recommend eating there. Can't wait to go back and try new foods

Chains need reviews, too I'm a big fan of this one They gots the fiber What do most all fast food restaurants have in common? They do not have any menu items with a significant amount of fiber. Given my history of diverticulitis, I am always trying to make sure that I get plenty of fiber every day. Naf Naf is like the Super Colon Blow of fast food restaurants. I always do a make your own bowl with hummus, chicken shawarma, cabbage, onions and pickles. Take that intestines! Pro-tip if you are dining in: ask for a lid and mix up the contents of your bowl. Way better that way for my money. read more

I was really, reeeaaallly excited to go to Naf Naf today. I haven't been to one in over four years and had delicious memories from the few prior experiences I had at other locations. Today I got the Chicken Shawarma Salad with cabbage, onion, pickles, garlic, baba ganoush, cucumber and tomato. After I got through the thin layer of toppings I realized there was barely any chicken and about 90% lettuce. I ended throwing it away halfway through and wishing I asked for double the meat and toppings to compliment the large bowl of lettuce I had left. I will stay away from salads at Naf Naf. My salad was not at all worth the $15 I spent. But my curiosity will get the best of me and I will return to try their steak pitas! read more

Naf Naf Grill - Chicken Shawarma Salad with cabbage, onion, pickles, garlic, baba ganoush, cucumber and tomato - Middle Eastern Near Me - Eden Prairie, Minnesota

Get your Middle East food fix- I happened to see NafNaf as I was pulling into a parking facility. I had the chicken Shawarma on a fresh pita. For being a "fast food" restaurant, I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was. I had all the sides as adders and topped off with their hot sauce....ok so it isn't the same as being in the Middle East, but it surely transposed me back to my favorite restaurant in Jaffa. read more

Great staff and nice clean dining area! It was my first time going here and I just wish that there were more signs on the glass for specifically what each topping is, what ingredients are in it, etc. I'm assuming I can find that information online, but a transparent sticker in front of each topping would have helped me. Oh, but make sure you get the Naf fries! read more

I love Naf Naf. The portions are generous without being overwhelming and more importantly, the food feels freshly made and nourishing. A nice alternative to chipotle or Panera or whatever your fast-casual healthy-ish typical craving is. read more

There was barely any food in my bowl today maybe 1/6 cup of rice few pieces of meat and tiny little toppings. It barely covers the bottom of the bowl for 10 dollars. This was my last time stoping by this place. What a waste of money. read more

Naf Naf Grill - Barely covered the bottom of the bowl , they don't give you much food. It's rice bowl witch chicken - Middle Eastern Near Me - Eden Prairie, Minnesota

Vegan-friendly places were few and far between in the area in which I was staying whilst in MSP. I found Naf Naf Grill on Yelp and enjoyed a yummy dinner to go. I ordered the falafel pita combo and a side of hummus. (They didn't have tahini sauce). The falafel were crisp and nicely seasoned. The hummus wasn't the best that I've ever had, but it was good. I really liked their Naf fries, which were thinly sliced and quite delicious. They don't have an extensive menu, but they seem to do good with what they have. I'd return. read more

Love this place. It's simple. The food is always tasty and you just cannot beat a fresh warm right out of the oven pita. Get a cup of hummus or some baba ganoush to dip it in and an order of falafel and you're all set! read more

Went there with my kid and some friends. The pita bread was very fresh and tasted fantastic. The meat was very well cooked. Highly recommend

I love Naf Naf Grill. I don't know what naf naf means. After eating there, it is natural to assume it means nom nom. The food is excellent. Food is put together customized for you as you make your selections like at places like Chipotlé. It's fast food at its best, and a much healthier option than most others. It's "boy-howdy" good (means really super good for those offended by beavers adding an "n" when spelling their style of home). I'm no unsophisticated beaver; I know what's great and what's wood rot. I'll sink my teeth into this food anytime. I wouldn't go so far as to say it gives me a woody - that's top honors to Beavers. We really know wood. But I can say it's excellent food. They've spruced up fast food so you don't have to. read more

We've been eating here twice a week for the last month and I'm not even embarrassed by that fact. We've been in the EP area for a short time, and unfortunately will only be here for a short time, so we're making sure we get as much Naf Naf in as possible while we can! The food is always fresh and the portion sizes are generous. For how often we are eating here, it is also consistent. You seriously cannot beat it for the price. Also, if you order a bowl with falafel, you get five falafel balls, which is definitely more than you get at similar style places. And they aren't dry! If you're in the EP area and looking for a fast-casual place to eat, I would highly recommend stopping by and trying Naf Naf! read more

very nice service and delicious food! they messed up on my first order and not only remade it but gave me the messed up order for free! highly recommend--very convenient and cheap! read more

This location has always gotten our orders right. In a great location with outdoor seating as well. Has a nice and clean atmosphere and layout. Have been here many times and will continue. read more

It's not fine dining awesomeness. But it IS like the Chipotle of Mediterranean food. It's fast, yummy, and reasonably priced.

I don't know what happened in the last two years but when I went to this location two years ago, the service and the food was mediocre now it feels like it's under new management or something because the food is always on point (hot /fresh) and employees there are so friendly and happy! As long as that doesn't change, I will keep coming back! read more

That's was so delicious, the girls are very nice and nice and easy to help you in choosing

Typically the meat is scooped out of a tray but I arrived close to closing time. The folks cooked the steak to order while I waited for only 5 minutes. I was so grateful they were willing to cook just for my order. I have visited other locations and haven't got the same service. The food is good for casual fast restaurants. read more

Imagine a Subway or Chipotle... for simple Mediterranean food. That's what this place is. More and more of these types of spots are popping up all over the place with style of dining. It's not meant to be a place to have a fancy meal, but rather an in & out style without having to call it fast food. Even though it kinda is, since the food is sitting out in warming pans ready to be made into whatever concoction you desire. Though every once in a while you can catch them cutting the meat off the rotisserie rotating in the back. Appearance/Atmosphere: It's minimal. It's a cookie-cutter style restaurant that takes on the characteristics of the rest of the plaza, but there's nothing wrong with that. High ceilings, the ordering station off to your right and seating off to your left with more toward the rear. Beautiful outdoor seating in the back for those warm Minnesota days that overlooks a cute pond. Not many decorations or the most comfortable chairs. No TVs for you to stare at. A real get in, eat and please get out restaurant. Service: Not much service here. You walk up to the counter, order your food and you watch them make it as they ask you what you want in your bowl, pita or whatever you get. Then you pay! Food: The food is very, very good. I typically go with a shawarma of steak or chicken. They also offer a variety of vegetarian options such as falafel or salad. You can have a base of hummus or baba ganoush, then your meat followed by a series of different vegetables and sauces. I'm a huge fan of garlic so their creamy garlic sauce definitely makes it into my shawarma every time. You can also "Naf It Up" by adding fresh fried chips or lentil soup. I've had both and I prefer the soup over fried potatoes. It's a great portion size for lunch and won't leave you so weighed down. Value: For about $11.00-12.00 you can get the full "Naf It Up" experience with the shawarma/bowl, side (fried chips or soup) and a drink. Not too bad for lunch. I was a fan when I first came here and I'm still a fan today. I'll come here at least once whenever I'm in town. Make sure you try and stop by as well. read more

With few choices for good Mediterranean food in the area, a lot can be said about Naf Naf Grill. The comparison to Halal Bros not withstanding, a wide variety of options are all very delicious with fresh ingredients. A go-to pick for me is the Chicken Shawarma Basmati Rice Bowl with half greens, chopped salad, purple cabbage, sumac onions, pickles and topped with the garlic and red sauces. Piled high with generous toppings and that oh truly fluffy pita (how do they get it so fluffy), this is a must try place. The food is packed well and travels superbly. While the small hummus came in a tiny plastic ketchup container the large was plenty and two fluffy pitas were slurped up immediately. Consider this place book marked. read more

I picked up some to-go food from Naf Naf Grill after hearing great things about it. I had lived in NE Minneapolis for a while right next to Holy Land, so they had a lot of pressure to live up to what I've been used to. I'm happy to say Naf Naf Grill is just as delicious as everyone has been saying! If you've been to Chipotle before you already know how to order from here. Everything is a la cart and they do a great job of walking you through how to order and what's included. I got a panini with steak and all the garnishes to go with it. Topped it off with their spiciest sauce too. The tastes all blended together so perfectly and had so much flavor! The portions were the perfect size too. Really, I don't know what could have made my experience any better! Next time you're looking for something quick and delicious, give this place a try! You won't regret it. read more

I am honestly distressed that it took me so long to check out Naf Naf Grill. Finally I got there on a spontaneous lunch date with my husband, and I'm really excited for our next visit. I ordered a pita with chicken shawarma, hummus, onions, cabbage, pickles, and tahini. The flavors were bright and clean and fresh, and I thoroughly enjoyed every single bite. Their fries are not what I expected - kind of like shaved potatoes instead of traditional fries. I'm glad I gave them a try, but it's not something I need to get every time I order - the pita was plenty of delicious food for one meal! read more

The Mediterranean response to America's love of Chipotle, Naf Naf offers fresh, fast, delicious food. You can choose from a salad, bowl, or wrap. Even choose between couscous or rice. Options are limitless, sky is the limit. The bowls are served with a side of warm pita bread which is baked to perfection so that you can split it in the middle and fill it with the contents of your bowl or dip it in the sauces. My favorite here is the chicken schwarma served over a bed of lettuce. I'd highly recommend the pickles purple cabbage, pickles with the garlic and tahini sauces. The tahini is a smooth rich sauce that pairs well with the garlic or spicy sauce. That being said, you can't go wrong here. Make sure that if the weather is nice you take advantage of the beautiful outdoor seating as well. read more

Fresh and excellent flavor. Quick service is a plus. The hummus is very tasty. Fresh pita is a plus.

Went here because of the high rankings and trying to get something healthy to eat. I got in line and ordered the veggie feast. It went down immediately from there. They kept having people who had meat options pass me in line. After awhile I asked and they really didn't speak much English so I just pointed to my bowl of hummus sitting there. Finally one told me because they were waiting for falafel ( which I have bee tasted and looked greasy). But they would pick a falafel from the person making them and putting them in the bowls of those who ordered meat. The one guy near me was in same boat and we had no clue what was going one. They clearly had enough falafel for everyone else. After getting passed up by seven others I decided to ditch. Especially after seeing one of this grease dripping falafels. Look like rock hard hush puppies. Newer got too taste anything. Guess it was a blessing in disguise. read more

Naf Naf Grill - Not healthy. Glad I ditched. - Middle Eastern Near Me - Eden Prairie, Minnesota

What can I say. Naf Naf is just yummy. Had it all the time in Chicago, and now in MN. Consistent and satisfying at any location I've been.

Absolutely crazy explosion of flavor in your mouth. Are you sick of food? Just sick Of the same old same old? Get a shawarma bowl with a little bit of everything on top. The veggies, the pickles, and the tabouleh! Some spicy harissa and kapow!!! read more

I'm standing in line at the Chipotle next door and writing this review because I went into Naf Naf at 9:03 pm (they close at 10 pm), and wasn't helped or greeted during a three minute time period; so I decided to leave. I was the only customer in the store as well. An employee who was cleaning saw me and walked into the kitchen area, peeked out after a minute and then went back into the kitchen. No help No acknowledgement of my presence, no "sorry ill be right with you". It's a shame because I was excited to try Naf Naf grill. I'm all about getting stuff done so one can close earlier, but damn! read more

Naf Naf Grill - Middle Eastern Near Me - Eden Prairie, Minnesota

Found this place a little bit by accident and have loved coming back here ever since! Food: Really good, especially for a quick lunch. It doesn't have the taste of a cheap lunch, which is nice because I rarely like to splurge on a meal out. Service: Also pretty good. I usually get my dressings on the side and they don't even bat an eye. It sometimes can feel a bit rushed but that's just the nature of that layout for a restaurant. Atmosphere: Not much to speak of. It's a fast casual restaurant, so if you're going here for the ambiance you'll likely be disappointed. read more

Naf Naf Grill is a Middle Eastern / Eastern Mediterranean restaurant that serves up fresh shawarma. What is a shawarma and how does it differ from gyros? Shawarma can have any number of toppings including various condiments and can have lamb, beef, or chicken in it. In contrast a gyro usually has tzatziki sauce, tomatoes, onion, and can have pork as the meat. Shawarma is from the Middle East and gyros are from Greece! Naf Naf Grill might be a bit "different" then some of the fast casual concepts you've had before. It isn't a burrito, burger, or sandwich. But what it is, is a delicious fresh baked pita pocket stuffed with chicken or beef grilled on a vertical rotisserie with added fresh sauces and toppings. They also offer falafel (deep fried chickpea balls) and fries, which are actually more of a cross between chips and soft fries; but they are pretty good if you add salt and ketchup. My only criticism is that the chicken I had wasn't as strongly seasoned as I had hoped. I am assuming they don't want to turn off too many people with overly strong flavors, but I certainly would welcome a decent kick in the butt more. On my second visit I had the steak, which I found a bit tough, I had to spit a few pieces out because I couldn't chew them up. Eww :) Overall, this concept is really well positioned to introduce new foods to the masses. I found the options to be well priced and a great option for a quick lunch. Something to add to your regular mix of go-to's like Chipotle, 5 Guys, etc. read more

I have stopped in a few times now after being underwhelmed with the downtown location. There is never a line whenever I go, but the food is always hot and fresh. I have tried the chicken, steak and falafel. All are great options! Whenever I order the Naf Naf Fries they are always fresh which is great! The staff is fantastic! The flavors aren't for everyone, but its in good proximity to noodles and Chipotle...so hopefully this place has a bit more luck than previous tenants. read more

I usually frequent the downtown location, but I was south of the cities yesterday and will always take the opportunity to fit Naf Naf into my schedule. Plus I saw David's ROTD, not like I needed any more persuasion. NNG is fast-casual. If there's a line, it moves fast, especially since the menu is so straight-forward. Choose your meat, carbs, and toppings, just make sure you give yourself enough time to connect with their house-made pita on a spiritual level, as it deserves. The service was so friendly and efficient too! The nice woman asked me how my day was, with a smile! What! That is so freaking nice and hardly happens to me, let alone when someone is scooping meat for me behind a glass window. They have a good amount of seating, including bar stools, plus a patio. I was worried about finding my seat when I saw the lunch rush line, but most people take their orders to go. My current go-to: Chicken Shawarma pita with everything (except baba ghanoush), with extra pickles and garlic sauce. Green hot sauce on the side. Make it a combo with the lentil soup + soda! read more

Super happy I decided to give this place a try. My sister lives in Cali and is all about this place and their garlic sauce so I figured why not when I saw they just opened this location near my work. It's pretty much a middle eastern themed Chipotle. The restaurant is very spacious and clean and it's set up so you can MYO pita pocket or bowl. The "Naf Naf bakery" is literally one guy making fresh pitas but it's kind of entertaining to watch while you wait to place your order. When you get up to order, you first choose pita or bowl, Babaganoush or hummus, and your choice of protein....then, there are a bunch of toppings and sauces. The hummus is plain but that Babaganoush though...wow! Whether you are a noob or a seasoned Shwarma eater, I recommend going with the whole shebang when it comes to toppings and sauces. The combination of flavors and textures is a very enjoyable experience. I tried the chicken shwarma and it was good but even better with the toppings and sauces. The pita is super fluffy and chewy and it's stuffed with a generous amount of chicken. If you go the whole shebang route, it will be topped with purple cabbage, cucumber salad, sliced white onions soaked in oregano, garlic sauce, green hot sauce (hot cheetos level heat, get the red fire sauce if you dare), and mildly pickled pickles. Parking is ample and the line moves pretty fast. If you're in the southwest metro I suggest making a stop here! read more
