My favorite family owned Mediterranean restaurant. Food is fresh and portions are generous. Servers are friendly and I love the lentil soup.

Food was very good, among the best in the area for this type of food. The restaurant was clean and they had artwork on the walls you could buy. Everything sounds good so why 4 stars? I almost want to make it 3 stars, it's the worst service I've had in years. We got our food before we got our drinks, and didn't even get all the food. We waited about an hour before we could get a glass of water. It wasn't busy. 3-4 parties there total. Because of the service I probably won't be back, I'll just go to the other restaurants that do it just as well. It's a shame read more

Too much salt in the soup and the lamb stew and grape leaves. As far as the grape leaves-- the restaurant charged us for lamb when we got vegetarian. The flat bread tasted as if they left it on the counter for 4 days. I was fooled by the reviews. It was such a dissapointment. read more

I placed an order online for +$70 bucks and they shorted my order. I didnt realize it until I got home. I will make sure to check my order everytime from now on. Other than that the food was decent. read more

Based on the high reviews, we came here for dinner. I ordered the mixed grill platter. It came with soup (lentil or chicken noodle), which is self serve. The platter came with a beef kabab skewer, a shish tawook skewer (chicken), lamb kafta, rice, and garlic sauce. It was a big platter, but I was quite hungry and managed to finish it. The chicken and lamb were a bit dry, but I enjoyed the beef. The garlic sauce went well with the meats. Overall, I was satisfied. read more

Ordered takeout on a whim and so glad I did! I ordered the tahini kafta platter with an upgrade to hummus as my side choice (already comes with rice). The hummus' texture was different than other versions I've tried from other middle eastern cuisines, but the flavor was fantastic. As for the platter, WOW, I didn't expect that depth of flavor. One of the best Mediterranean dishes I've had. I also tried the garlic sauce - absolutely reeking of garlic (how I like it) and hot sauce (meh - too mild). The dessert case looked amazing and there's many other dishes I want to try. I'll be returning. read more

Excellent food everytime. Service is always on point, big portions and haven't found another restaurant that tops their quality! Food is fresh and flavorful everytime. If you're looking to try some authentic Mediterranean food this is my first recommendation. read more

Fast and friendly service. Flavorful food, especially loved the garlic dip with the pita!

Amazing, my wife & I just enjoyed a fantastic dinner! Our server, Hiya, (I'm sure I misspelled it), was the most delightful, kind, and sweetest person you could imagine as a server. A better description would be our culinary dining guide. She made our first experience one for the ages. From her patience with our inability to choose, to her suggestions. My wife had a tabbouleh salad, while I enjoyed a feta salad. Both were fresh as can be. Our dinners were fabulous, Karen's was Shish Tawouk platter, mine the mixed grill. Simply beyond words. The best comment I could give, is that we can't wait to come back when we're in town. I guess we're very fortunate our son lives in Cuyahoga Falls, and it's a 2 mile trip up the road for another great experience with our favorite server/new friend! read more

I'm really surprised by the high ratings for this place. I went there based on those reviews. Place an order to go. I ordered lentil soup which was bland, seems like something you would serve in a hospital cafeteria. A small meat-filled pastry, I don't recall the exact name of it. When I say small, I mean tiny with hardly any filling. Not worth the price. I also ordered a greek salad and requested dressing. Didn't get any dressing. I ordered hummus. I expected this to be good. I mean even if they get everything else wrong, this should be a staple at a Mediterranean/Middle Eastern restaurant. Nope. It tasted like a cheap store-bought version of hummus. Absolutely disgusting. I have no idea who is leaving these reviews, but I suspect that they've never had good Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food, because this place is just not it. Especially with these high prices. read more

I had takeout through DoorDash from TAMR; I've been wanting to try this restaurant for quite some time after driving past it on my commute to work and then reading the excellent reviews. My experience exceeded my already high expectations! I ordered the sizzling shawarma platter. Obviously for takeout it won't be sizzling, but the chicken was moist and had clearly been expertly marinated. It was served with a similarly flavorful rice (some nuts and cumin) and homemade pickles. The tahini sauce was pretty good, but the garlic sauce was mindblowingly good (order 2 on the side). The meal comes with a side; I opted for the season salad, which was a simple yet refreshing mix of tomatoes and cucumbers. I also got a small side of spicy hummus for $4.99. The portion of this meal was absolutely massive and fed me for the next 2.5 days. More importantly, everything tasted fantastic and so fresh. Comparing this to other local places like Aladdin's (a chain) and Shawarma Brothers, TAMR blew both of them away. I can't wait to have another meal from here. read more

Tamr Mediterranean Grille - Sizzling Chicken Shawarma Platter Combo Meal with a side of spicy hummus - Mediterranean Near Me - Stow, Ohio

Was driving by and decided to stop in for dinner. Best decision!! Food is delicious! Huge portions. Service was excellent!! 10/10 would recommend! read more

TAMR was a very pleasant surprise. We stopped by for lunch. Service was very friendly and all of our questions were answered while ordering. I ordered the Yogurt and Cucumber Salad as my starter. When it arrived I was amazed at the portion size - enough to share (if you are willing to part with some!!) The salad was bright, light and creamy with a lovely garlic punch. My entree was the Mixed Grille. Everything was flavorful, juicy and very satisfying. I could have eaten the entire generous platter but took home half for an encore the next day. Really some delicious and healthy Mediterranean food you should not miss. I can't wait to come back. Our plan is to call ahead for some of their family sized platters. read more

Went there recently because of my love for Mediterranean food. Last time I was at Tamr was a few years ago. I feel they have regressed. Food was average. Service and staff were attentive and pleasant. Think the inside of the restaurant for dining in needs to be updated. More people were coming in for takeout. We were the only ones dining in the hour and a half we were there. read more

Tamr makes some excellent, authentic Mediterranean food coming from someone who used to live in the region. The hummus is excellent which can be hit-or-miss at many similar spots. Restaurant has a smaller, intimate setting. I ordered takeout the last 2 times I dined there - the food was great, but worth noting that I waited ~15 minutes both times when I showed up at the scheduled pickup time, one of which did not appear to be a busy night. The trade off is that the food was fresh and hot when I got it! read more

Delicious. They have the best hummus and I've enjoyed everything I've put in my mouth from this place. Miss the buffet. read more

One of the few Mediterranean spots in the area I really vouch for. The staff are incredibly kind and accommodating. I usually order the mixed grill with salad. I really enjoy the taste of the meat, seasoning, and the sort of grilled char-ness to it. I wouldn't say it's the same caliber as some of the Arab restaurants in bigger cities, but nonetheless a very very delicious spot. I also really enjoy their hummus and baba ghannouj. They also have some really delicious desserts. Pro tip: If you are stuffed from the food, but want to try a dessert get a Kanaffa to go. Heat it up at home for a delicious snack. read more

Best baba ghanoush I've ever had. We stopped here just for a quick snack. The hummus was great too but I'm a huge baba fan. That mint yogurt drink was pleasing to the palate. Can't say I've had anything like it before but I've bought it two more times at our local Middle Eastern store.I'd like to go back here when they have the buffet up to try different things. Wonderful service and great food. read more

Tamr Mediterranean Grille - Amazing food and best tea! - Mediterranean Near Me - Stow, Ohio

I'm upset because I don't live near this place. The food went far beyond my expectations. The soup was flavorful even with peas and carrots that I hate. The salad was so refreshing and I lives the veggies like red pepper in it. I had the mixed grilled platter. It was delicious, the kofta was a little dry, but most places it is. The steak and chicken were flavorful too. I only wish there was more of a veggies on the kebob than 2 small slices of pepper. Even the hot tea was wonderful. I wasn't expecting it to be sweet but I did like it. The lady serving and getting people's to go orders was nice and friendly too. read more

Tamr Mediterranean Grille - Mediterranean Near Me - Stow, Ohio

If you love Mediterranean food, you need to visit TAMR. Their food is delightful. Every meal I've had here (about a dozen and counting) has been exemplary. From their drinks (house made hot mint tea to imported sodas like pomegranate or pineapple) to their appetizers and main dishes, you can't go wrong. Sadly, by the time I decided to write this post, I was halfway through dinner before I thought about taking photos. So the only one I have is of dessert and it was fabulous! read more

Will definitely make another trip out. read more

Very clean, prompt, and friendly service. The Lentil Soup Is Excellent!!!!!!! I would travel to get more of this soup!!!!!! Excellent Baba Ganouche!!!! read more

What a find! It was well worth the 35 minute drive to Stow to visit TAMR. Starting with a warm friendly welcome from the servers to the end, we really enjoyed ourselves. This is a modest, deli style restaurant located in a tidy strip mall. The atmosphere is simple, super clean, and they embellished things some with some contemporary middle eastern music on the sound system. Super clean and they have the seating spread out very well, so you'll feel comfortable while we're still going through the pan-epi-whoknows-demic. Which, the ending of all that by the way? God wins. We had a wide array of dishes for our first time. Lentil soup, lamb stuffed grape leaves, hummus with hot sauce (don't skip the hot sauce/oil, it's perfect), spinach pie, and pita of course. The chicken and lamb shawarma sizzling plate with rice and pickles was absolutely delicious, and came in a very generous portion for the price. The Shish Tawook Chicken was perfectly marinated and grilled spot on. As you might sense, we came away impressed and big fans of TAMR. Easy to get to off Rte 8 on 59 just West of SOM - 91. Try them. You'll be happy. Then, everyone around you will be happy. World might get a little better. Who knows? read more

This restaurant is amazing. Their food is incredible--if you are ready for a change of pace from the ordinary, then try something extraordinary. I had the Shish Tawook skewered chicken with their amazing rice and garlic sauce. Good dining area with excellent staff. Not a beer/wine restaurant although I think they may have some bottled beer selections. I'll definitely be back to try more entrees. read more

this is a really solid place. If you want good Middle Eastern food this is the place. The staff are very nice. I usually get the mixed kebab platter, which gives you a nice array of what they have. The meat is well cooked well seasoned and quite frankly delicious. unfortunately they give way more rice than they do meat. In other places that I have tried with a similar platter they give typically more meat. It's not a huge deal but would be nice. I don't love the pita bread. It comes in these plastic packages and it feels very stale and dry. That being said, I frequently return here as I know exactly what I'm getting. read more

These guys always hit. Quality has been great and consistent, everything fresh as well. Love em

We came here for dinner before a movie. It was empty except for one table so we were a little concerned. But service was great and food was so good! We shared the lamb shawarma plate which came with rice, pickles, grilled onions, and choice of soup or salad. We also ordered the fried mashed potato balls which were surprisingly delicious. Definitely recommend! read more

Not even kidding, this is the best Mediterranean restaurant in Ohio! The hummus is the best hummus that I've ever had, they make it homemade daily. The tabouli is absolute perfection! Also try the french fries and garlic potatoes! Even the kids meals with chicken and rice are amazing! 10/10 no menu item has been less than perfect and I still have many more to try!! Also get the hot tea!! read more

We arrived on Thursday evening around 7. Maryanna and her mother were welcoming and told us all about the wonderful food they prepare from scratch daily. We opted for the buffet and it was very good. Great flavors all around. We also had felafel, which was excellent. Finished off with homemade tiramisu and black tea with cardamom and mint. Awesome! read more

I was a bit nervous because I hadn't eaten here recommending it for a large group of friends stop on our way to Blossom tonight. It was a rainy day so we figured dinner in a restaurant would be better than a wet picnic. Everything was amazing. We each got an appetizer to share and I also had the side of cucumber salad and lentil soup. It was rainy by buckets so we decided to get dessert and the go shopping. The hot mint tea was perfect. The prices were good and potions large. We will be back to pick up take out on a not rainy night for our concert going. Thanks read more

Tamr Mediterranean Grille - The Chocolate Mousse Cake we were forced to order ;) - Mediterranean Near Me - Stow, Ohio

Pretty good food!! Pita and hummus is super good:) the ordering situation is a bit awkward but the people are all super nice!

The sandwiches here are very good. For about $7 each they come in decent size. Sides are extra. The wait can get pretty long if they are busy or on weekends during brunch hours, up to 30 minutes or so. However they are made cooked to order, fresh from scratch. I recommend you call/preorder if you are only going for takeout and live close by. The weekend brunch buffet is delightful. At about $15 a person (tax tip not included) it is not a bad deal. The buffet trays are always warm and fresh. It offers limited assortments of rice/lamb dishes, as well as all known mazaat, appetizers, hummus, and the likes. The owner (from Lebanon originally) is extremely friendly and she offered house mint tea which I was waiting for my takeout order. It was some delicious hot mint tea. The place is very clean and tables/ambience are very welcoming. It is perfect for a small group of friends/family but I'm sure they can put tables together if need be. read more

The perfect light yet hearty meal. The food will leave you satisfied without feeling gross. I recommend the tahina kafta. The hummus is nutty and tart--some of the better hummus I've had in my life. The pita can be dry or stale at times. The freshness is a coin flip. However, they will load you up with pita if you ask for extra. Tamr has (by far) the best garlic sauce of any Mediterranean restaurant I've been to. I believe it costs extra but it is totally worth it. This is a staple in my diet and every time is delicious. Try it! read more

I wasn't SUPER hungry, but my partner was so he suggested we stop here for some carry-out. All I got was spicy hummus and their version of Khyar Bi Laban, both of which were wonderful. My partner got the lamb salad, which he gobbled up. The ladies working there were really sweet and brought us our take out to the car where we were waiting, which was really kind. Thank you Tamr! read more

Tamr Mediterranean Grille - Yogurt and Cucumber Salad (to-go) - Mediterranean Near Me - Stow, Ohio

This place is amazing. We've Door Dashed from here several times but have never been in. I stopped on my way home tonight and did takeout. The woman who greeted me was incredible, kind, and patient. Many of their dishes are Gluten Free or can be made Gluten Free. Their portions are generous and we can usually get at least two meals. The woman was kind enough to bring me a hot tea while I waited for my meal, also, which was wonderful after coming in from the snow. I would agree with the other person who said there is no reason to go any other place, this tastes homemade and delicious! Also, side note, the place is very clean, I noticed that they used PURELL Surface Spray so I felt like the place was clean. read more

Tamr Mediterranean Grille - Tea - Mediterranean Near Me - Stow, Ohio

I understand why this place gets an average of 5 stars. Everything was delightful and I was really impressed. As soon as my boyfriend and I walked in, a woman greeted us genuinely and seemed to be excited that we were there. She saw that I had a broken foot and told me to sit a the corner table because there's a lot more room. She even got a chair for me to rest and elevate my foot. She answered all our questions with a smile. The atmosphere is very clean and bright. I'm really happy there I was able to sit near a window. I really enjoyed the red color scheme. The food is great. There are some reviews that have mentioned that the price is expensive for the buffet. Yes, it is a little pricey but I personally think it's worth the price because of the quality and taste of the food. The lamb was cooked perfectly and was full of flavor. Everything tasted extremely fresh and there was some variety in options. I also appreciate how there was fresh sliced food available in the buffet too. The hummus is fantastic! Very smooth, garlicky goodness. I'm craving it now, typing about it. After the meal, the woman offered us some tea. It was so great and paired perfectly with the baklava that we got after our meal. Yum! I'll definitely be back. I love buffets oh so much and I'm so happy to have found this place. It was my first Mediterranean buffet and it certainly did not disappoint. read more
