Can we say HIDDEN GEM? This little diamond is located near my new apartment, so after passing by a…read morefew times we decided to place a take out order. They sell very authentic Arabic food and have a small shop of imported treats from Turkey (teas, grains, Turkish delight, grape leaves, etc) We ordered a promotion for two people which included a plethora of treats to try: a stuffed bell pepper, stuffed courgettes, stuffed aubergines, stuffed grape leaves and stuffed cabbage, all filled with a rice and beef mix. It also came with a large piece of Mazipan which was a sausage casing stuffed. It wasn't visually appealing but also very tasty. The deal also included 2 drinks and was 12.000, fed two hungry people so I thought it was really well priced. The menu also has various dips (hummus, babaganoush, etc), shawarma and falafel as well as various salads and desserts. Will be back soon to try more of the menu. A few patio tables but overall more of a take out place!

More evidence the burrito is the perfect food technology. This was a satsfying, quick vegetarian option with fresh ingredients (falafel, avocado, marinated tomatoes, etc.), which you have to grateful for in Santiago.

My boyfriend said his didn't have enough meat, but also really like mine. We ate during the lunch hour and so our food also came with a drink, soda or juice (we both got the strawberry juice, which was tasty) and a dessert but we both decided against the desert as we were full. I find the atmosphere very modern and fun. They have no absolutely no inside seating, it's all out on their patio. It's a very cute area that is enclosed by boxed plants and covered with large umbrellas. It's right on Merced street and you are surrounded by the cute architecture that makes up the Bellas Artes neighborhood. This place is great for a lunch out with a buddy or even a small group. I've noticed in the later evening they almost always run out of things so make sure you go in before 9:30 10ish.

This is the real deal. It is important to note that just 3 months ago the administration changed. I…read moream not sure how it was before but I can say that their falafels are delicious. Kabab offers Middle Eastern food made right. The new owner (and cook) is Palestinian and Colombian and after talking with him briefly it sounds like he has big plans for the restaurant - including adding TV's to watch the games as well as a website for easy ordering. Kabab's menu has many different traditional Middle Eastern options and some with a Chilean twist. My favorite is the vegetarian option of falafels with a delicious yogurt sauce. They also offer "dulces arabes" which I believe is Baklava (or if not, something similar to it). I can't speak for the kababs or how it was with the old administration, but definitely worth giving it a try. They also have awesome "menus del dia" that are very economic and tasty (Tip: if you are a vegetarian ask the owner for an alternative)

I ordered their burrito & soup of the day combo (I chose the pumpkin carrot ginger soup of the two on offer) and my wife ordered the falafel plate. I'd say hers was the better of the two, as my dish was on the bland side and rather lack substance. Her plate was heartier; the falafel and sauces it came with were the highlight. The place itself is nice, and perhaps we didn't order optimally, but I was a bit underwhelmed by the food.

The size of the dishes were not particularly large but they all had food flavor. There were two additional sauces that came with the falafels that I thought were great. The staff were friendly and it seemed they might do more business as take out. If you are in the area it is worth a try. They seem to be one of the only places open on Sunday night in this part of Santiago.

The place is small with a few tables of outdoor seating along the sidewalk and a small dining area inside. You order at the window. I ordered the falafel shawarma (Chico size) which came with a mini bottle of soda. They accept credit card. They brought my order to me along with a white sauce and a pale green sauce. The shawarma was just okay. The falafel was really dry. Even drowning it in sauce didn't help. The staff was really nice, and I probably should've ordered something else.
