This is a really great place that has a lot of middle eastern options. Everything I have ever gotten has always been super fresh. They also have some market stuff for sale like groceries. I really personally liked their hummus read more

If it wasn't for my friend showing me this place, I probably would have never visited. Location isn't the best, as it is a crowded little strip mall that has been under renovations for a long time and parking here is always a mission. It's not a restaurant per se, it's like a little market that happens to also cook some dishes. That being said, service was good both times I've visited, so has the food! You can go with gyro, either on a wrap or a platter, or make your own plate and try different things. Plenty of vegetarian options. read more

Local neighborhood Middle Eastern market and food spot. Family owned and operated. Been there for years and they have the most delicious take out food options. We usually get the gyro platter or gyro. All of the food here is very flavorful and authentic. Last visit got some baklava to try it with pistachio dust on top and it was heavenly! Only took a star off because my last visit, the gyro lamb meat wasn't cut fresh and reheated on the flat top. I've also had the grape leaves and they are amazing. Definitely recommend. read more

I ordered 50 gyros for my daughters 17th birthday and it was a hit... everyone loved it, everyone asked where it was from of how fresh the meat was and the taste was amazing! read more

Yummy, friendly, family owned business! I love their baklava! Wide variety of flavors

This place is clutch!!! Every time we crave Arab food we come here!! Authentic and delicious food!! We purchased the tabbouleh, baba ghanoush, kibbeh, & tzatziki. I recommend these items to everyone! Especially if you're looking for natural dips and sauces that will add delicious flavors to you meals! They have a market in the front side of the shop and a small deli looking area in the back which is where they have the food. They make fresh tabbouleh, rice, grape leaves, kibbeh and many more delicacies. I believe this shop/restaurant is family owned and operated which makes the service top notch. read more

Al Basha - a grocery store filled with food - Delis Near Me - Miami, Florida

I had a craving for Middle Eastern food and stopped by to buy dinner for myself and my in laws. It was my first time going but I felt confident it would be good because of the great reviews. I called the restaurant to put in my order and got a very friendly gentleman on the line to fill my order. When I picked up my food I was pleasantly surprised to see that they have a lot of interesting items for sale...it's really like a small supermarket inside. I picked up the food (at a very good price) from the same friendly person I spoke to on the phone and headed home. Everyone loved the food. Generous portions, fresh ingredients, and great flavor. I think the stuff grape leaves could be the best I ever had. I'll definitely be back read more

The best Middle Eastern food I have ever tried in the whole Miami. Baklava is to die for and food is fresh and so tasty, we always get our food here for special occasions. read more

The food is delicious and fresh. Generous portion I felt I was eating at a friend's house. They are super kind and have a freezer with a selection of middle eastern foods to go. Recommended when you have a craving for delicious food read more

I stumbled across Al Basha when I was actually looking to have lunch at a different spot next door. A sign on the door said they had gyro's and I decided to try it out instead. The place is a Middle Eastern super market with a few authentic items for purchase. I wouldn't know how to cook any of it (I'm cuban and basically make rice with every meal) but I would imagine this is helpful for those looking to cook authentic Middle Eastern Cuisine. Towards the back is a small area where you can purchase foods like kibbeh, taboule, gyro, etc. I was disappointed to see that some of the food was being heated up for another guest by a microwave in front of his face but the man didn't seem to mind as he seemed like a regular and ordered 3 platters. The man that assisted me was extremely nice and helpful! I asked for a lamb gyro. Luckily for me, my lamb was cooked on a grill and he put the gyro together in front of me, adding tons of toppings. I got back to work to have my gyro and the explosion of taste was INCREDIBLE. I wish it was bigger so that I could have eaten more! If the rest of the food tastes as good as the gyro did I see myself coming back often! read more

Very authentic Arabic food. Their baklava was the best I've ever tried! And I love the date cookies, not too sweet. A lot of flavor. I wish my food came warmed up though, it was pretty cold when we picked it up, but other than that, great place if you're craving real Arabic food! read more

Small business, hidden gem! BEST GYROS EVER. It's been around Kendall for years and I just found out about it like a year ago... WOW LITTLE DID I KNOW I WAS MISSING OUTTT! read more

I had never heard of this hole-in-the-wall family owned place until I was in the neighborhood and in the mood for middle eastern food and searched on Yelp for something closer than my usual spots. Very large menu, and they have a complete mini-mart with goodies to buy as well, desserts, canned items, etc. food was served quickly, very reasonably priced and delicious. Loved it and would recommend. If I'm in the area I would definitely come back. I love supporting small private businesses, especially with these difficult times and the near-post Covid era, and Al Basha made it easy to get a thumbs up with great food and service. read more

Can you believe this restaurant has been around for 21 years?! I've been passing by this shopping plaza for yearssssss and have never noticed it till I walked into the Subway next door. Instantly caught my eye with the gyro window advertisement. I'm sorry but when you walk into a Mediterranean/Arabic location, you don't expect the staff to be speaking in Spanish to the cute little viejitos they were tending to. That's amazing! And the best part is that it seemed like the customers were regulars there because I had the viejito ask about the young guy (maybe part owner of the business) for his mom and how was she doing. I loved that! The customer service was spectacular. And although I didn't get his name, but the gentleman had long hair in a pony tail and light eyes. He was suggested the kibbeh combo and since I had never tried it, I gave it a shot. DE-LI-CIOUS!! Everything is made in house. The food had great flavor. I was pleasantly surprised with this hole in the wall. And their prices can't be beat! I'm so happy I came across it. Their baklava is to die for. And how cool is it that it's also a Mediterranean/Middle Eastern mini Mart too?? One stop shop! Looking forward to going back and trying something new off their menu :) read more

This hole in the wall is one of my favorites. I ran into it when I had to wait at Enterprises down a couple stores and I ordered some lunch for me and my boyfriend. We both loved the freshness of the gyros. I have had gyros before but they have never tasted so fresh. I even came back another day for another lunch purchase. Hands down the best greek spot I have been to. I am excited to go back. read more

I love in Doral and this is almost the closest one to us. It has a good variety of middle eastern goods. I went to buY semolina flour, needed the fine and coarse kind and found them both. They also have Arabic foods. I tried the falafel and kibbeh. They were good. The grocery items are a little bit expensive than some other places, but it evens out because of the distance. read more

Got the kofta kabob platter, along with chicken shawarma & beef as sides. Also kibbeh & falafel. Everything was good. The guy was really nice & attentive to me. All of the meat were a bit dry though. Total was $18 something. read more

Wonderful food and service! I had the Al Basha Combo and some Pistachio Burma and they were both delicious. I highly recommend this deli. It is a hidden gem in Kendall. read more

Ive been a few times and I've always enjoyed the food. I don't know the name of most things so I will describe them to the best of my abilities. The almond rice and the lentil rice, always a great choice. Their lentil soup is also yummy. The hummus (both creams) are yummy, I get those with the pita and top it off with the salad they have which contains tomato/cilantro etc. They have some wrapped rolly thingies that I don't love, but my husband really likes them. I've also ordered the stuffed peppers and they were tasty. The kibe (sp) is tasty. Overall, great spot. read more

I've been here several times now and the food is excellent. The place is a quaint cafe/ market where you can shop for authentic eastern ingredients, spices and other food items. If you like middle eastern food I recommend this place, you wont be disappointed. read more

I'm not sure why I hadn't reviewed this spot before. Only place I know of to buy tahini, and it's close to home! There are many more authentic options in the grocery as well as a kitchen with gyros and other excellent middle eastern items. Highly recommended. read more

Al Basha never disappoints. Meals are served fresh and delicious, the market is full of yummy and interesting items, and there aren't enough adjectives to rave about the baklava! Highly recommend, whether for a no-frills but tasty, quick sit-down, or for takeout. By the way . . . It's run by a SUPER friendly and welcoming family. read more

This place is great! No frills and fluff, just authentically delicious food, a selection of Middle Eastern and Greek groceries, hookahs, and kind people. We did take out, but there are tables inside if you choose to dine in. Everything is neat and clean as well. We tried the trio platter (lamb, beef, and chicken skewers, rice, pita bread, baba ghanouj, and tabouleh salad), the Greek gyro sandwich, and namoura. The skewers were so yummy and cooked to order! The baba ghanouj was wonderfully smoky and creamy. The tabouleh salad was light and fresh. I typically do not eat desserts, but decided to give the namoura a taste. It was VERY sweet, but had a nice rose and almond flavor with an almost cornbread-like texture from the semolina flour. Will definitely be back to try more from the menu! read more

Al Basha is a great place to pick up some quick authentic Mediterranean food. Every item is rich in flavor with great prices. The costumer service is also something I was please with. The employee was very accommodating to my diet restrictions. In addition to the cooked food, there is a variety of groceries which cannot be found anywhere near this area at these fair prices. read more

I'm excited to report the food is so delicious... I have been eating here for quite some time (years) and I am never disappointed. You have to come and try their rice with lentils topped with caramelized shallots WOW!! And the kibbeh is my favorite with some hot sauce, amazing #partyinyourmouth Homemade middle Eastern food that makes you feel your Mom cooked it herself. read more

absolutely loved this small business. very friendly staff. awesome food with large portions. would definitely come back !!!

I don't live in Kendall, but if I did, this would be a place I would frequent to purchase Middle Eastern goods. There's not a wide assortment as you would expect in a supermarket, but they have enough specialty items to allow for me to make Lebanese dishes at home. They also make some Lebanese staples in-house like shawarma, kibbeh, etc. I'm not rating this place high because of its distance from where I am, but there are other markets closer to me. This isn't a market worthwhile for people to drive to as it is more of a neighborhood market for the Kendallites. read more

My order online is taking longer than two hours to be delivered and no one from the restaurant responds. The problem is not the time, it's the inability to respond to a customer that has been calling more than 4 times on an ongoing order. Don't know if I'm even going to get my food... read more

I was craving a Mediterranean meal with some hungry friends looking to eat lunch and stumbled upon this place based on its great reviews. So glad we decided to go because it was a delicious experience at insanely low prices. This food spot is in the back of an international market that also sells authentic Mediterranean cooking ingredients. My two friends and I were the only people there which ended up feeling very homey as their staff was warmly attentive and open to explaining menu items we hadn't heard of. We ordered the Baba Ghanouj (roasted eggplant dip) as an appetizer and ended up finishing off every bit with a spoon when we ran out of pita because it was that good. For lunch I ordered the El Basha Combo Platter which included kibbeh (small stuffed meat pies), grape leaves, hummus, baba ghanouj and tabouleh for a whopping $8, being the most expensive lunch menu item. The food is made immediately and is noticeably fresh. My friends also ordered lunch combo platters---the shawarma platter and the chicken shawarma platter, both were perfect. Will come back when my Mediterranean craving strikes again, very excited to try other things on their menu that I'm sure will all taste great. Also, took a home a pound of black olives that I ended up using for a stuffed chicken thigh with black olives recipe. They were delicious! IG: KFitzEats read more

This is my go to place for middle eastern food. Great prizes, great portions, and great service. I also gave a try the owners own home made frozen falafel mix and it was pretty good to bake or fry at home. read more

This is, by far, the best Mediterranean food in town. The falafel, kibbeh, kafta, grape leaves, and gyro are all top-notch. Pricier compared to others but you get what you pay for. The staff is A-1: courteous and friendly. The only drawback is the crappy strip mall where they are located. read more

Love going there for lunch! The staff is very friendly and very accommodating. The food is delicious and they have excellent lunch specials. I definitely try to go there when I am in the area! read more

My grandaughter brought me here for lunch and it was such a treat! I purchased a few of the soaps they had at the counter and they smell lovely. I didn't get too brave, but I did try the vegetarian platter and it was fantastic. The staff was very pleasant. I look forward to returning soon! read more

Good neighborhood hole in the wall. I have been eating at the his location for over 20 years. Food is always good and prices are reasonable. The market section is good too. They have many products I have not seen elsewhere like pickled labneh. read more

good little market / middle eastern restaurant. They carry most of the ingredients necessary to make most Mediterranean dishes. Its a family run business, the owners are from Venezuela with ties to the middle east. The cooked food is freshly prepared and priced fairly read more

So I just ordered a Chicken Shawarma wrap, a Mixed Shawarma Platter (which is not on the menu), 4 grape leaves, 2 Kibbeh and 2 lady fingers and holy!!!... All of this was for $27.00 I would have end up paying close to $50 for all of this in Rice House of Kabob and the food is a thousand times better. The food is 5 stars, but is not a restaurant, i don't think I would like to eat in there on a Saturday night since it has about 4 tables and not fancy at all, it's more for pick up food or a quick lunch. They have a grocery as well where you can get any middle eastern goodies you need. Don't let the outside fool you people, you need to try Al Basha for an authentic Greek experience and definitely don't forgery about those walnut and pistachios Lady fingers. read more
