Nour is one of those places that just feels good the moment you walk in -- clean, fresh, and full of that bright Mediterranean energy. The menu is a dream for anyone who loves vegetarian or vegan options (there's no shortage here). I went with the veggie kebab, which was perfectly seasoned and felt light yet satisfying -- definitely on the healthier side, but not at all lacking in flavor. The real standout, though? The falafel. Crispy outside, fluffy inside, and honestly some of the best I've had anywhere. The mint lemonade was also incredible -- super refreshing and just the right balance of sweet and tart. You can tell this kitchen knows its roots -- everything tastes thoughtfully balanced, not overcomplicated or trying too hard. It's the kind of food that reminds you simple ingredients can still have serious flavor. A great choice when you want something fresh, colorful, and comforting without feeling heavy. read more

The beef and chicken is phenomenal. Perfectly seasoned and cut up finely so that it doesn't dry out like kebab meat. The rest of the food was also very good, as well as the baklava but I would come back for the beef and chicken alone. read more

We ordered the chicken schwarma with a large hummus as delivery on Uber Eats. Everything was very tasty, although I always end up wanting more pita! Food arrived well-packaged and still fairly warm. I ate the side salad - as usual - which was delicious. The hummus was waaay more than we needed for the two of us, but it was very good! The neat portion was generous and well-seasoned. read more

I have been eating at Nour for over 10 years since the original owner was there. I am a creature of habit so I have always ordered the same thing, add has my family. It had always been on point. However, my last 2 visits have been extremely disappointing. I realize inflation may have something to do with it but the portions have greatly diminished. The Greek sauce was watered down and runny instead of the consistency of thick yogurt. The Turkish coffee was cold and also tasted a bit watered down. I really hope they go back to what made them such a local favorite. The saving grace is their customer service. They are always great! read more

The ambiance is wonderful Food is Superb Service Terrific My favorite place to dine Don't miss trying this delicious experience along with Mediterranean music and tasty Mediterranean food read more

100% recommend! Saw this on Instagram and decided to check it out. Aside from Gyros, I never had Mediterranean food. I trued the mixed shawarma, which had chicken and beef and yellow rice. Man, the flavor on that was amazing, and the rice was spot on. Wifey had the lamb and beef gyro, and she absolutely loved it. Very small intimate spot. Service was good, attentive, and very friendly. read more

Excellent food, good service. Hot naan and dip served before meal was excellent. Will definitely be back.

Phenomenal in every aspect. Food is mouth watering, customer service is the best in El Paso, the restaurant is clean, and the cost is the best bang for your buck. I would attach photos. But the food didn't last. read more

Now this is true 5 out of 5 dinning. I am reconsidering my rating system as I side eye previous 5 Stars I've given, the standards have risen. I came here to drown out my disdain after a very disappointing meal at Urban Gyro and it truly made up for it. The Spinach Pie was flaky, buttery, and savory. It was perfection. Spicy hummus made your mouth tingle a little with spice but it wasn't overwhelming at all. The shawarma was amazing, best dish I've had in weeks to be honest. AND THE RICE. OMG THE RICE. I'm very picky about my restaurant rice, it's either never fully cooked or overly cooked. The rice was so tender and lovely, a general contrast to most restaurant rice that comes out dry and stiff. The aromatics were there but they didn't overpower the dish, it had a hint of flavor that complemented the meats. Honestly I went around and tasted everyone's dish and dipped every meat, vegetable, and bread into every sauce available. I couldn't have enough. I am definitely coming back with more people next time. (Service was also amazing considering there was only one waitress working for most of our stay) read more

Solid kitchen with generous portions and efficient service. And that white garlic sauce. That's some powerful magic. The hot tea is a cinnamon infused nightmare, as your correspondent isn't a fan of that particular spice. Be advised. read more

Having placed an order for pickup, I showed up to find the cashier giving me a bewildered look, as if I were an alien.

Let's talk about Nour Mediterranean Cafe. Small Mom and Pop family restaurant. Call ahead thats for sure. The Beef Shawarma was delicious. Bring your appetite because they have big servings. Service by Erica our server was warm and amazing. Try the Kebob sandwich i had one to go! The balaclava yum yum goes well with the Turkish coffee yes, delicious. Nour you are indeed Cintron approved! read more

Messy meal, poor service all around. I've ordered food from here a number of times and I really want to like it (I love Mediterranean food), but Nour's plates are not well thought out, lack flavor, and makes for an overall bad dining experience. I ordered a Lebanese salad with shish kabob, and had to use a butter knife to cut up both the salad and beef. Every ingredient was rough cut and entirely too large to be served in a salad. The hummus was both late (came after my meal was delivered) and incredibly bland. Never in my life have I added salt to hummus, but it was the only seasoning that dish received. My child ordered a hamburger which came late, served on a pita (I'm assuming they ran out of buns and just decided not to tell us). The French fries were sloppily, 1/2 covered in seasoning salt which also covered the plate (meaning the fries weren't tossed in the seasoning and served, they spilled the salt all over the plate). Burger was charred beyond repair and yellow in color (I wish I was making it up). Also, the tea I ordered was clearly made from a raspberry powder, and sweetened which I never requested or given a choice when ordering. Staff is relatively friendly but not communicative or informative. I could be ever bring myself to return here and don't recommend it to other. read more

I love middle eastern food! But the food here is so expensive! $19 for a variety veggie plate! Was supposed to come with pita bread. Just one pita bread. And $17.95 for the gyro plate, which only had one gyro! It came with soup or salad and the soup was very unpleasant. I could only taste onion it was supposed to be lentil. I got the order to go. I did buy the package of baclava they have for sale at the register and it was a waste of money. I won't be back. read more

Nour is a great place to go for Mediterranean food in El Paso! We have been twice now, and it was delicious both times. One of my favorite things about Nour is their sauce - it goes so well with everything. The first time we dined in and had a great experience. The service was excellent! I ordered the lamb, and it was so juicy and tender. The vegetables were very fresh as well. We ordered the baklava for dessert which was so tasty! Today we stopped by to pick up a beef shawarma and try the kenafeh. The beef shawarma was delicious! The meat was tender & flavorful, and it was filled with fresh vegetables. The shawarma was even better in our opinion when dipped in the sauce. It was our first time trying kenafeh, and it was unlike anything we have had in the past. As a dessert, we expected it to be a lot sweeter! We thought of it as being more like a good snack to end the meal with. I would personally recommend the baklava over the kenafeh, but that is probably because I love sweet desserts. If you're looking for some amazing Mediterranean food, I'd recommend ordering to go from Nour during the quarantine (& asking for their sauce!) or coming to dine in for a date in the future. You won't regret it! read more

Very cute and clean. Fast and friendly service. The gyro meat was very good. The pickles were a fun addition. The Nour Sauce is amazing and the homemade hummus is spot on. I'm used to Greek, so the Tzatziki sauce wasn't to my liking, but others may love it. Hubby liked the rice with his Gyro platter. The Gyro meat was fried so it had a crispy outside which was very pleasant. Nice experience. read more

The gyros are huge, I remember the hummus being served warm this time it was cold. Maybe my memory isn't serving me right, who knows. We ordered two gyros and a hummus. My bf didn't care for the music, I don't let music affect my experiences. Also they had raspberry tea but it felt like the fountain drink was out or watered down. I was a little disappointed they don't serve iced tea (but that's my problem haha). The food was good in taste and large in portion but didn't leave me wanting to come back for more anytime soon. read more

I feel bad writing this review because I had such high expectations. 3 Stars = "A-OK". No bad experience, just nothing that was crave-tastic. I've definitely had better (especially after living with someone from Tripoli). My Order: Labneh, Chicken Shawarma Sandwich, Beef Shawarma Sandwich, Mixed Grill Plate with Fattoush as the salad, and Kenafeh. The best items from all of that was the Chicken Shawarma & Kenafeh. Labneh - Just okay. Chicken Shawarma Sandwich - perfectly seasoned & cooked. Chicken was juicy and flavorful. I would have liked a little bit more of the garlic yogurt sauce. Beef Shawarma Sandwich - good. Nothing to rave about. Mixed Grill Plate - Biggest Disappointment! This comes with Shish Tawook, Beef Kofta, and Beef Kebab. Nothing stood out. I've had some UH-MAZE-ING Kofta, Tawook, and Kebab and all of this was very disappointing; almost bland. Nothing stood out at all. Definitely missing on some of the seasonings. Fattoush - HUGE disappointment! What the hell was that?! That wasn't fattoush. I was very upset about the fattoush ESPECIALLY since they charge you extra for it. Kenafeh - loved loved loved the kenafeh. Deeeeelicious! So! Absolutely order the Chicken Shawarma & Kenafeh. Skip the Mixed Grill. It's expensive and doesn't leave you with the "Craving more" feeling. It's more of a "meh. that was good". read more

Great lunch had here. Their Nour dip they bring out with warm & slightly toasted cut-up pita is ridiculously good. Great even. You could make a meal just from that. We had chicken shawarma (sandwich & plate) and foul mudammas. The foul was perfect - balanced and just scrumptious. The chicken was excellent. This place was killer. read more

Nour Mediterranean Cafe - Chicken Shawarma Sandwich Greek Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - El Paso, Texas

Best place in town for some Lebanese food. The owner is so nice, welcoming and always makes sure the food is at his standard.

La Jefa (mom) wanted to introduce us to this place. I now know why. We ordered the Spicy Hummus, 2 small Fattoush salad with chicken, lentil soup and chicken gyro with rice. It was all delicious and even had left overs from the vast quantity served. The hummus came with freshly made pita bread. I had their hot black tea and Turkish coffee. Both perfectly spiced and didn't need to add sugar nor creamer. We each ordered a drink, and a coffee at the end. 3 people ate and drank for about $40. I think this is inexpensive. It's near UTEP and there's plenty of parking on site. read more

Do NOT use Uber Eats to order from here. Once my order was submitted, the restaurant took 45 minutes to alert me that one of my 3 items was unavailable and canceled my order because they were closing. I will also be sending in a complaint to UberEats but feel they should've contacted me before the 45 min mark and should've completed the rest of my order. read more

Food is good ambiance is decent but horrible service , they don't seem to care or have any respect for the paying customer, i used to order food every week but after experiencing their service in person , will not eat from that place anymore. Being in the restaurant business and for the waitress to have so much attitude and disregard for customer care , don't see this place surviving in the long run. read more

I LOVE the nour sauce. So Yummy! The mixed veggies are incredibly delicious too. Nour never lets me down. Yummy!!!

Two words: Nour Sauce. I could just drink that sauce alone!! Everything I've had from Nour has been great. Their grape leaves are amazing, I usually have to get a couple orders because I gobble them down too quickly. Their pita is nice and soft, and their hummus always has a great flavor. I usually get their mixed grill and like I mentioned before, I make sure to use every bit of their garlic sauce. Their rice always has a moistness and good flavor to it, and their falafel is great also. The one thing I wish they still had on their menu was their potato appetizer (I forgot the name). It was divine as well!! read more

Personally, I like the food, chef and staff members. The food is very delicious. I strongly suggest this restaurant if you are in town..

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! No pics because I devoured my food too quickly. I ordered takeout delivery via doordash and it was ready and brought to me quickly and fresh and warm despite the restaurant being pretty far from my Airbnb. The baklava pieces tasted extremely fresh and were the perfect crisp bites of heaven. Not too sweet at all the perfect amount of natural sweetness. The gyro meat was better than anticipated and in a fresh soft pita shell with mixed veggies and the perfect amount of white sauce ( seemed to be tzaziki). I added on the recommended special sauce and boy am I glad I did! It was a very delicious light green sauce. No idea what it was but it took all of the flavors to the next level. Will definitely be back again and highly recommend. read more
