    Falafel Plate
    Clare M.

    I always get the falafel/Vegetarian platter. It's absolutely flavorful and fresh. I don't even really like falafel's but it goes so well with the hummus baba ghanoush, and that absolutely perfect pita bread that it comes with. So soft. Ordered via DoorDash and it arrived very quickly. Have picked up from the location before. It's a walk up window and it's a quick order.

    Hands down the BEST falafel in Tucson. Seriously. Do yourself (and your taste buds) a favor and come experience this flavor explosion. The falafel is crispy perfection on the outside, soft and herby inside -- absolutely to die for. The hummus is silky, the baba ganoush has that rich smoky depth, and everything tastes incredibly fresh. This spot feels wildly underrated. It's small and casual, not fancy at all, but the food coming out of this kitchen is straight up divine. Service is fast, portions are generous, and they even have a drive-thru if you don't feel like getting out of your car (plus indoor and outdoor seating). Bonus: it's right next door to their Mediterranean market/grocery, so you can grab imported goodies after you eat. Flavor, value, and authenticity all in one stop. I'll absolutely be back.

    Chicken Shawarma Sandwich
    Kenna C.

    Being a lover of Mediterranean cuisine, Caravan Grill was a delightful and delicious find. We ordered the appetizer platter and chicken shawarma wrap. The appetizer platter was SO good! Creamy smooth dips, perfect grape leaves, falafel was amazing with marvelous texture and refreshing tabouli salad. Very balanced flavors and not drowning in oil as we've experienced at other restaurants. Would definitely order again. No Mediterranean meal is complete without these accompaniments. The wrap was seasoned well, evenly distributed and absolutely delicious. Very eager to return and enjoy these dishes again and try something else too. Service was friendly and welcoming. Ambiance is basic with several tables if you choose to eat in.

    Shish Tawook Mediterranean Salad
    Ellen P.

    You will never have a salad like this. Diced ripe tomato, slices of onion, Persian cucumber, chunks and crumbles of cheese, flavorful olives, herbs and sumac on top of hand chopped romaine. Then the chicken. It is poetry for the mouth. Silky spice robed chunks of moist skewered and barbecued meat, lavishly spread over the salad. The dressing is perfect as is the toumi. On top of all that, the food is served up by such friendly people in record time. Tucson is so fortunate!!

    Falafel wrap
    Evie S.

    The falafel here is very well spiced and flavorful with enough herbs, coriander, cumin etc which I often find are lacking in other restaurants' falafel options in Tucson. It is served a little differently than I am used to (which makes sense given falafel is eaten in many countries and there are many variations and different ways it is served ) but since the falafel itself is very flavorful it hits the spot for me. The food here does seem to vary a little from time to time and once in a while I like it a little less but overall it's definitely by far my favorite falafel locally outside of home. Sometimes I like to get just the falafel balls and freeze some. They heat perfectly in the air-frier and on busy days I eat them with my favorite pita (by Angel Bakery -sold locally only at Whole Foods. I freeze the pitas and warm them up by steaming them) and my own toppings. I also liked their combo plate with falafel, baba ganouch and stuffed grape leaves (the filling was moist enough here when I tried them) It's a simple counter service place with a few tables inside and a few outdoor picnic tables. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

    The Original Gyro Sandwich
    Genevieve M.

    Kinda a fast food place with a few dine in tables and a drive thru. Reasonable prices for the wraps. The plates are typical of restaurant entrees prices but served in a styrofoam box for dine in option. The meats were seasoned decently. It wasn't bad food- it's just that I feel with so many options in the area the dishes didn't stand out to me. It seems to be a busy spot with non stop orders even post the lunch rush. Would I go grab a gyro there if that was the closest place and I was hungry- sure. Would I drive specifically there if I was craving a gyro or kebab - likely not. Again, not bad but didn't hit the spot for me.

    We live fairly close to Caravan and have passed it many times, curious each time about what it's like. So finally we dedicated date night to exploring this place. Overall was a pretty enjoyable experience. The food was really good, we agreed we eat there again. The space is a small neighborhood restaurant/fast food vibe so not super fancy but well kept and quaint. Indoor and outdoor, next to the road. Service was simple and kind.

    Lots of food, my picture is shawarma cut in half. Very mediocre. No seasoning on the shawarma. Just tastes burnt and heavily spiced. It needs lemon and salt. This type of pita isn't my favorite I prefer fluffy pita over flat. To make sandwiches a combo is $3.99. Fries were ok. Drink was tiny. I'm not sure what's so great about this place? Would not come back. It was $18. Service was fine.

    Falafel Plate with pickles on the salad. Sooo good!!
    Erin D.

    I was out looking for dinner one evening and ran across Caravan Grill. It's a small place with a real family owned feel. We ordered the falafel plate and a falafel sandwich with fries. The falafel was really good, nice and crispy on the outside and full of flavor. The plate came with a salad and hummus, both were delicious but you can really taste the authenticity in the hummus. The sandwich was really good too, I wasn't sure if I'd like a falafel sandwich but it was great. They break the falafel up so it's easy to eat but still has texture. Since that night I've been back quite a few times and I will say that I've really grown to love this little restaurant. They have the best falafel I've had in Tucson and everything else has been top notch. The fries have some seasoning on them that has us addicted. The service is fast and friendly and as I said, has a real family owned vibe.

    Shish Tawook Plate
    Christina Z.

    We've primarily ordered Caravan Grill through DoorDash and have never been disappointed, but finally made it in-person for lunch and confirmed the deliciousness. The food is so flavorful - well-marinated meat dishes and light salads with a well-balanced dressing. Our favorites are the shish tawook (the grill on the kebab adds a nice char) plate which comes with rice, salad, and vegetable stew, and their shawarma sandwiches (my husband's favorite is the lamb) which you can turn into a combo for seasoned fries and a drink. Definitely one of our favorite Mediterranean restaurants in town.

One of those pop up menus is an Indian street food menu that is fully vegetarian and also egg free (Indian pure vegetarian.) My husband and I went a couple times, once in May 2025 and once in Feb 2026 and it was delicious and beautifully plated. My review for the food itself is 5 stars. During those two visits we tried: (May 2025) -Pani Puri: Fresh and delicious and I recommend ordering it spicy if you eat spicy. -Samosa Chaat : This was a 5 star dish for me! It was the best samosa I have ever had with the most delicious toppings and condiments. We asked for yogurt on the side, I'd totally get that again. My second favorite dish here! -Dabeli: This was a 5 star dish for me! It was a perfectly balanced work of art with the delicious filling and bun and the pomegranate and peanuts on top. Super fresh and so so delicious. I would absolutely return just for that- my favorite dish here!! (Feb, 2026) -Sev Puri: This was good. the fried potato on the cracker was fresh and I really liked the sauce mix on it with tamarind. It reminded me a little bit of the filling in Trinidadian doubles. We asked for yogurt on the side. -Pav Bhaaji: This was good but my least favorite dish here. I think probably just because of how amazing the others are though. This one also contains clarified butter which I don't typically eat. I liked it with the lime and raw onions added to the curry. -Vada Pav : This was my favorite from today's dishes! I loved the perfectly fried spicy green chili pepper in it. I wish I didn't eat that whole chilli pepper in one bite because I wanted more when it was gone. My husband experienced it the same way. He also noted how fluffy the potato was inside like mashed potato. This was perfect for sharing since there were two. This dish is native to Maharashtra. - Aloo tiki chaat : This was good. the fried potato patty reminded me a tad of a potato latke. Toppings were good and included mint. We asked for yogurt on the side Both times we sat on the patio and enjoyed a relaxed dinner. When we came in May they were very nice to check if we were happy with spice level or wanted more spice and talked to us about the food. They seemed passionate about it and It made for a really fun and interesting experience. When we came in February, we had less engagement with staff. A couple things I would like to note: 1. They add a service fee of 10% on bills without notifying the costumer. The first time I went, since they didn't notify me of that before I paid or gave me a detailed bill, I left a tip over that total amount that already included 10%. I do think it should be communicated to customers in advance. When I realized this and pointed it out to them they did refund it. The second time I remembered there was a fee but I noticed it was still not communicated to me a head of ordering. I don't appreciate that business practice of hidden fees and that is the reason I lowered to 4 stars. The food itself is 5 stars for me. 2. I would not recommend their pop ups for people with severe allergies. I was hoping and still hope they eventually transition the restaurant to Indian or add a regular Indian menu. Especially since there is only one restaurant in the Tucson area that serve south indian food (Spice Garden Indian Cuisine in Marana) . I have yet to try the mediterranean food here aside from a complimentary baklava in May which was not my favorite. Sounds like the two current owners bought the business sometimes around January 2025 and I am curious (and really hope ) to see the Indian dishes become a more regular part of the menu on a daily basis. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out!

I was so excited because every restaurant I've tried through his recommendations has been fantastic. We were invited to enjoy a complimentary buffet they were hosting, which was such an unexpected treat. The first thing we noticed was the beautiful outdoor patio--perfect if you want to enjoy your meal in the fresh air. Inside, the restaurant felt welcoming, and the staff immediately made us feel at home. The owner, Ray, was there greeting guests and genuinely seemed excited to have everyone visiting. Once we got the go-ahead to check out the buffet, our eyes lit up. Everything looked incredible! Since this was our first visit, we weren't sure what to expect, but the presentation alone had us excited to dig in. (Just a note: this buffet was for a special event, so I'm not sure if it's offered during normal business hours.) We started with a fresh Mediterranean salad tossed in a bright lemon dressing that was absolutely delicious--although I may be a little biased because I can never resist a great salad! We also tried the hummus and baba ghanoush with crispy fried pita chips. Both dips were smooth, creamy, and packed with flavor. Next came the beef, lamb, and chicken shawarma. Each one had perfectly crisp edges while staying incredibly juicy and flavorful inside. We paired them with the tahini sauce, which added the perfect fresh finish. My absolute favorite parts of the meal were the pickled vegetables and the falafel. I already love pickled foods, but these were exceptional--not overly vinegary, just perfectly balanced with a fresh, tangy crunch. The real star of the meal, though, was the falafel. Honestly, I'm usually not the biggest falafel fan, but Med Cuisine completely changed my mind. We dipped it in their incredible garlic sauce (I believe it's called toum), and it was the perfect combination. The falafel was crispy on the outside, soft and moist on the inside, and bursting with flavor. I completely understand why it disappeared so quickly--I only wish I'd gone back for seconds before it was gone! We had such a wonderful experience and can't wait to come back. Next time, we're definitely saving room for dessert. Do yourself a favor and stop by Med Cuisine. Support this wonderful local business, enjoy some incredible Mediterranean food, and if you're lucky, you'll get the chance to meet Ray, whose hospitality makes the experience even more memorable. P.S. Please don't judge my plate in the photos--I served it myself! I'm sure the staff would have plated it much more beautifully than I did.

I got my usual vegetarian mezza so I can try it all. Ambiance: okay, a bit outdated. We were the only customers. I was thrown off getting water in plastic cups- instead of a glass. Service- okay. Minimal contact. Food: the bread threw me off as it was served in a plastic bag. It was odd. The dolmas has no flavor except for the grape leaf. The rice appeared to be only white rice and no spices? The lettuce/small salad was not edible. Not dressed and old lettuce. I got 2 cucumber slices to eat two dips- not enough. And used to getting a more tomato. The falafel was okay. The bread tasted old. I'm used to good Lebanese food and this missed the mark. I'm surprised by the reviews. The hummus and baba ganoush was 3/5. My husband had a spicy Lebanese sandwich, he said it was good. And the fries were soggy and greasy. With so many levant places, I won't be going here again. I guess I prefer the Iraqi, Syrian, and Turkish places in Tucson.
