My Kenz Quesadilla with Kofta was disappointing especially at the price charged. Service is slow…read more One server on the floor on a Saturday afternoon. Fifteen minutes after I sat down the server finally came over to my table. I asked for a glass of water. Water is not free. They charge 2.50 for a bottle they bought at H-E-B (24 bottles @ $3.99). 30 minutes later I received my order. Seriously, how long does it take to make a quesadilla? I finished my mediocre quesadilla 20 minutes ago and I'm still waiting for the check and there are hardly any customers here. Thumbs down experience. I won't be back again. PS: I noticed multiple Yelp reviews from people all referencing asking for water (as in free) and being given a plastic bottle that cost $ 2.50. Total scam.

I heard about Elhelmya Egyptian Restaurant through social media and got excited to try it, so I…read moreordered through DoorDash. The food was very well made, authentic, and incredibly tasty. Even the presentation through delivery was beautiful and made us excited to open everything and eat. So far, we tried the macarona béchamel -- it was fantastic, moist, not dry at all, and full of flavor. We also tried the koshary, and the sauce added to it was perfectly balanced and gave exactly the authentic taste needed. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. I can't wait to visit in person soon!

We were greeted pretty quickly when we walked in, when ready, just order at the counter. The We're Dough breakfast spread was okay but nothing too special. The two knockouts that everyone agreed were excellent were the Akkawi cheese fluffy kaak (street bread with cheese and sesame seeds), and the lahme bil ajiin (puff pastry with beef and pine nuts). The cardamom tea was kinda meh, I was hoping it would be something homebrewed, but it was just a grocery store-bought teabag in hot water. Come here for the bakery items, I'm definitely re-ordering the fluffy kaak with cheese and lahme bil ajiin!

I was craving a good gyro and was reminiscing on the specific and perfect flavor of Droubis. So glad this place exists! It's a simple gyro with the necessary toppings (nothing over the top) wrapped perfectly in the most delicious and fresh pita. The price is very reasonable and the quality is top notch. The owner was still making sandwiches just like before! The taste was exactly how I remembered. And the hospitality hasn't changed either!! While waiting for my sandwich to be made, he offered us tea and apologized for the 5 minute delay (because he was making fresh pitas for the sandwiches). I will definitely be back!

Since 1979 he's been slangin shawarma, he's so goated that he's still servin the block and expanding. His students have moved on to other known Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern food establishments like Fadis and such, unfortunately everyone forgot that shawarma is a street food that helps the common man on his grind with an affordable meal but now these greedy guys are selling shawarma for over $15 "sides and drink not included" Mr Droubi is keepin it a hunit and I got mad respect for him. The falafel is also very delicious as well as their hummus and baba ganoush, they have house made pastries, dates, figs, feta, flat bread, imported EVOO etc. all in a chill store/restaurant, I can't wait to come back!

We actually went to a different Fadi's looking for cabbage wraps and koussa (stuffed zucchini), but they had a much smaller spread so we drove 15 minutes to Meyerland and enjoyed a wonderful lunch. The hack at Fadi's is to go half-half so you get a slightly smaller portion of 2 side dishes that counts as 1 side. I had the babaganoush, muhammara, mushroom salad, and rice as my 2 sides (each 1/2 portions) and the lamb kabob for my protein. My wife had the spanakopita, cabbage wraps and stuffed zucchini. Loved it all. The restaurant was packed, but there was still plenty of seating and we found a nice quiet area to enjoy our meal. It's always a great experience at Fadi's Meyerland.

Came with family for the first time and we were so overwhelmed by not just the food options but also by the friendly staff! Pro tip: don't get too excited too early because you will absolutely miss out on the rest of the options. Take a stroll down the line to look at all the possibilities before committing. That said, you can't go wrong with anything at Fadi's - great food, balanced flavor, home-style service :) We'll definitely be back - cheers, Fadi's!

They do also sell whole rotisserie chicken if you really don't feel like cooking that night.

So decided to come back again last Saturday with same friend and her child for a relaxed dinner. They have a great playground for the kids and the patio is huge! The food is super tasty. We had some hummus, and the mixed grill plate. It's served with a massive pita bread that is freshly baked and the size of my head. They have good sauces as well. We didn't finish our food between the two of us and ended up taking leftovers. Portions are great. The mint lemonade is to die for!!

We wanted to do something chill and hookah is the perfect activity for that. They have more chill seating (couches, etc.) and also table seating in front of the stage which is nice for when the bellydancers perform (started around 9pm on a Sat). The Mint Lemonade is a must whenever I go to a hookah lounge and this one was spot-on; delicious and refreshing. The hookah was also well-made and although we had to ask a few times to rotate the coals, the workers came pretty quickly. It lasted over 2 hours overall. They even gave me a buzzer in case I needed anything to call someone over. Shout out to Abdul for being a great waiter!
