Came here for lunch to celebrate my birthday. It is located in the Harlem Corners shopping center…read morewith ample parking. The staff is warm and welcoming, and we were seated quickly upon arriving. Love the ambiance! It is very cozy and inviting. We were served a complimentary appetizer: pita bread strips, pickled veggies, and what I believe to be an eggplant dip. We also ordered the Bawadi wing appetizer. It was delicious, and those wings! It came with a sauce, but I cannot comment on that because none of us tried it. The wings by themselves are delicious! My friends both ordered the lamb chops, and I ordered the Al Bawadi mixed grill with hummus and bread. Everything was good, and the portions are generous. The meat was tender, juicy, and seasoned well. We all enjoyed our meals. We plan on coming back in the Fall to celebrate another birthday. This is definitely a neighborhood staple and will come back with family.

We dined on a Sunday night around 8 PM and were seated right away, which was a great start. We…read moreordered the mixed grill plate, a Nutella shake, and I asked for water. The salad and hummus came out within a few minutes and the food itself was actually very good. No water given at this time. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. We waited almost an hour for our main entrée, had to ask for the water again, and the Nutella shake we ordered was never served at all. Our server was not attentive throughout the night. One more thing to watch out for -- a 15% tip was automatically added to the bill, so make sure to check before paying. The food was enjoyable, but the poor service really affected the overall experience.

The meat in the mixed grill was alright. The waitress was ditzy and not too attentive. When the waitress wasn't anywhere to be found I asked the bus boy for two to go boxes, he gave me a mean look and didn't speak. The waitress didn't serve water for my guest and I. Also she didn't ask if we wanted any dessert. I found better restaurants with much better service in the area that's where I will dine at in the future. Also the waitress didn't offer my guest and I any water or asked us if we'd like any dessert.

Hakuna Matata in Oaklawn is delicious. I've been here about three times, and each visit has been…read moregreat. We ordered through the drive-thru, and while the line can get long, it took us about 20 minutes to get our food. The customer service is friendly, attentive, and patient. There are pictures of most of the meals displayed outside, which makes it easy to see what you're ordering. I had the chicken shawarma, fries, and hummus. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, and the portions were generous. I'll definitely come back. The food is a bit on the pricier side and my chicken shawarma meal was around $19.

I don't believe the pita is vegan, but other vegans said it is, not sure (just skip it but I could be wrong I'm better safe than sorry) Hummus is too good! you can order pick up online or delivery, or call to place a order. I was skeptical at first cause Mediterranean food usually have limited vegan options, but this place is impressive. Also can bring your friends or family. Ambiance - lots of seating

Baba Saj was... fine. I tried the chicken shawarma meal and the steak shawarma bowl, and overall…read morethe flavors were actually pretty good. The meat was well-seasoned and tasted fresh, especially the chicken, which was juicy and nicely spiced. The steak had a solid savory flavor too, though it wasn't anything particularly memorable. That said, the bowl came with a lot of pickled vegetables. Way more than expected. If you like pickled vegetables , that might be a plus, but for me they kind of overwhelmed the rest of the bowl and distracted from the meat. I found myself pushing them aside just to get to the shawarma. Portion sizes were decent and the food felt filling, but nothing really stood out enough to make me crave a return visit. The restaurant provided the food quickly for the delivery which was appreciated.

They do have a drive thru too which is nice and what I did. Don't expect them to be fast tho, it's not actually a fast food spot. I thought the meal was good! My only complaint was that it wasn't as crispy as I wanted, i think both the fried chicken and the wrap being meh in terms of that crispy bite you'd expect. As you can see it is toasted but it was still more chewy than crispy. Otherwise the flavors are decent and for like a $15 meal, it's ok. The portion is good and it does the job.
