    Chicken Shawarma Sandwich

    Food was fresh and friendly staff. Local favorite of mines They never take long and the food is always made fresh to order

    Shish Tawook

    Al Shami was a place highly recommended by a friend which I recommend to you now.There are more than one entry way to the food truck with parking spaces in a food court called moosa colony. This place is great for family as well. The service was fast and the food is tasty. I ate the SHISH TAWOOK meal. It included rice, pita bread, pickles and two sauces. The best for the last about the chicken, juicy and flavorful. SHISH TAWOOK - 9.5/10

    Excellent kabobs and service is quick and friendly. Prices are a bit steep but I understand it's tough for these guys during inflation.

During a stressful and emotional time, they made the entire process easy, smooth, and affordable, and I am so grateful for how kind and accommodating they were. I really wish I took pictures of the food after we displayed it out for the guests, but it was a funeral and my brain truly was in another place. We ordered the rice, a side salad. Both were in very large aluminum dishes, and two servings of felafel sides and then a mixture of beef, chicken and lamb wraps all cut in half. The owner personally spent time with me on the phone multiple times going over the menu, helping me figure out how to get the best variety of dishes within our budget, and making thoughtful suggestions that ended up being perfect. You could tell he genuinely cared about helping us, not just making a sale. The food was absolutely delicious -- so many people complimented the wraps and the rice in particular, and several guests asked where the food came from. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and homemade, not like typical fast catering or fast food. At the last minute I realized I didn't have cutlery, and without hesitation he took care of it for me and included it in the cost, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. I actually first tried their food when I gave birth at Memorial Hermann across the street in February, and I'm so glad I remembered them and came back to use them for catering. The quality is amazing, the service is even better, and the price was about half of what other catering companies quoted us -- with better food. Truly an amazing business run by genuinely good people. I highly recommend them for catering, especially if you want authentic food, fair pricing, and people who really care.

It is on the lighter side and I wish there was more protein but for the amount of sides it's pretty decent. There's a lot of options and I usually do the family meals or one entree and 3 sides.

Lamb shank 5/5 Also lightly seasoned but the lamb is so tender and falls right off the bone. Hummus 5/5 Love the different options they have. Pita 1/5 Dry as a brick.

This was my third time I have given this location a try and this time was so bad I had to write about it. I ordered a Chicken Shawarma and the entire sandwich tasted like fish of all things! I wouldn't be surprised if today being a Friday is their Fish and rice day. So to me this means they have no problem throwing together a "chicken " shawarma sandwich using rice from the fish. How else could the whole sandwich taste infused with it. I paid over 15 dollars to have my stomach turned. Three strikes and you're out Fadi's in Sugar Land. I will NEVER eat there again!!!

The food is wonderful - very fresh and flavorful, with high quality ingredients. Chef John is a very experienced and accomplished chef with a background in various cuisines. The menu is extensive, featuring Mediterranean, Persian, and Indian cuisines. Everything from curry to shawarma to soltani to biryani to fish and chips. Kids menu available as well. We had hummus, tabouli, a Chicken Soltani plate, a Beef Soltani plate, saffron rice, fried spring rolls, baklava and Persian tea. Everything was delicious! The portions are large, and the prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality of the food. This will be our new "go to" restaurant. Chef John is very kind and personable, and visited with our table personally. The staff was very kind and helpful. Order at the counter and your meal is brought to you. The address is 4645 Highway 6 at Dulles Ave., in the Welfresh parking lot. It is a cafe to the right of the sushi restaurant. There are tables inside and a couple of tables on the outdoor patio. They also have an extensive catering menu. Business hours are 11 a.m. until 9 p.m. on Monday, and Wednesday-Sunday. Closed on Tuesdays. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself. You won't regret it.

Upon entrance we had to ask the server to bring us water. He was kind enough to bring my son another drink on the house. - Barg was a too chewy. - Interior is dated. Restrooms need to be cleaned. Overall: I would try this place again. Chef John was really nice and I kind of feel bad for leaving a neutral review.

However, we were charged for it at the end. I understand the charge itself, but no one at the table had ordered it; they just set it on the table. It would have been nice if the staff had made it clear or asked if we wanted to add it to our meal. Perhaps there was a mix up with another table. Our experience was otherwise great, but double check the menu for what is complimentary and what isn't.

    Been meaning to try this place but it was not at the top of my list. I was finally able to visit…read morethis restaurant last Thursday. The place is new but not recently new, so I was impress that they were still attracting a crowd. The place was packed and busy but the host was still able to seat us immediately. With reservation, of course. Our seat was a banquet seating and when the host directed us to our table, we notice the party seated next to our table had placed all their personal belongings on our seats. We had to ask the host to ask them to remove their personals so that we can sit down. I felt that the host should have done that and not upon our request. Our server was Keamogetswe and she jumped right into explaining the menu since it was our first time. I am used to ordering drinks first and while waiting for our drinks, explore the food menu. That way, we can ask questions about any item we were unfamiliar with on the menu. Anyways, we ordered our food and they came out very fast. For starters, we had the grilled shrimp which was just two shrimps. They were not prawns so the size of the two shrimps for $18 was not worth it to me. We also tried the Rumi's wings. They were average to me. Nothing to brag about. For the main course, we wanted to try several dishes and settle for a family style meal. We had the braised lamb shank, chicken kabob and the Koobideh Kabob. Since all plates came with rice, Keamogetswe suggest we try different rice options which was a great suggestion. So for the rice, we had the Adas, the Baghali and the Shirin. I have to admit that the braised lamb was amazing. The stew it sat in was very flavorful and the meat melted off the bone it came with. The Koobideh was also another favorite of mine. Both, I highly recommend everyone to try. And my favorite rice was the Shirin. As we moved on to dessert, we had the burnt honey & pistachio cake and the persian ice cream sandwich. Both taste great but the persian ice cream sandwich itself was vanilla wafer. Different but it made it easier to eat with your fingers. The weird thing was when the dessert was served to us, so was the check. I am used to us eating dessert or just starting to enjoy dessert before being handed the check. And when they do hand me the check, they would mention that it was no rush and when I am ready to take care of it. But that didn't happen and I decided to get it out of the way so I can just enjoy the dessert. As we were conversing and finishing our drinks, they started to clear our table and even picked up the signed check or tab. It felt like they were hinting us to get up. I feel that if there was a time frame to dine with them, they should have made us aware of it before dinner or when we made reservation like how Toca Madera does. So that made me feel uncomfortable. But this could just be me.
