This place is awesome. I got the Lamb Kebab which was juicy and cooked as good as any place that I have been. The Plate comes with salad, saffron rice and Arab stewed vegetables. I especially liked vegetables which I have never had before. After my main course I had some kanafa and black tea which is how any meal should end. My friend gave me a bite of his chicken shawarma which was well seasoned and I might get next time I'm here. read more

Caravan Grill - Lamb Kabob Plate - Halal Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

See all

Good food and friendly service. Just wish they would stay open a bit later, at least until 7 pm.

Really great and freshly prepared food. Braised Lamb Shank Plate is well-prepared. Large and tasty portions. Fav is appetizer plate with Falafel, hummus, Baba Ganoush, Stuffed Grapeleaves, and Tabbouleh. Don't forget desert, great pastries. Good delivery or pickup. read more

Food was decent, but lack of air conditioning made this small venue absolutely uncomfortable. Water jug remained empty during our entire meal. Not recommended until cooler weather. read more

This place was delicious. I ordered chicken swarma, which was seasoned well, nice balance of chicken and veg, really creamy. I also got the baba ganoush which had a nice rich flavor. Place looked clean and the guy serving it was friendly and had a good attitude. Will definitely be back. read more

Sadly I was not impressed. Food was quick but chicken was dry, the sauce was watery, the pita was hard, and the veggies were mushy. It was edible but not great. read more

Caravan Grill is, hands down, the best Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food in Tucson. Excellent service, excellent prices, family owned, and a clean dining space. The falafel is crispy on the outside, soft of the inside - best I've ever had. Portions are a good value. The drinks are super cold and the ambiance inviting. Try the baba ganoush: rich and just a touch bitter. Yummy. We are here every week and hope they remain a Tucson staple for a long time. read more

Totally enjoyed the food here. Had Mediterranean salad, sample platter and a meat pie. The owner Ansa and his diverse staff are delightful and we were happy to lend them our support. From Libya, Palestine and Syria. Hard working and you should try this place. read more

Very authentic and delicious foods at a reasonable price. Simple but clean Decour. Very friendly service.

Awesome flavor!!! Best hummus I've ever had. We had the Chicken Shawarma and I can't wait to eat it again :)

Great chicken shawarma and The BEST Baklava. Ever! It was absolutely deliciously home made. We also loved the traditional thin pit bread and hummus. The perfect meal. read more

Food was very good. Dining area is small and bare, but this is the kind of hole-in the-wall place you go to for delicious, homemade food. Worth the trip! read more

Small place with an ample menu offering. Seriously the best hummus I've ever had. The shish tawok is tender, moist, and flavorful. The shawarma is nicely seasoned, and the vegetable stew is delicious. read more

Caravan Grill - Chicken Shawerma - Halal Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Simply delicious fare! Homemade and fresh every time! Made with love, pride, and joy and served In a clean and quaint restaurant. No frills! Just amazing food and impeccable service. Exactly what the doctor ordered according to The US News and World Report this week relating to the best, easiest to follow, and most healthy diet. This is a win-win choice for all!!! It's such a pleasure to give this very clean, family-operated restaurant a-5-star rating; I wish I could give it 10 stars!! read more

I was driving by and it looked like they were finally open. I stopped in for a taste, since I live in the neighborhood. I decided on a chicken shawarma plate. It was moist and flavorful with a tasty garlic sauce and perfectly cooked meat. The restaurant was very clean and service (counter) was attentive and friendly. I grabbed a freshly baked Turkish naan bread on the way out. There's more seating than before, so next time I'll stop in with the fam--the boy loves good hummus! read more

Amazing food owned by amazing people. Very kind and great staff. Besides the food tasting excellent and a clean environment, I was a fan of how the wait was very short. My new go to spot when I'm in the area! read more

Very nice addition to our Tucson's fav. The service was very friendly and our food was quite good. We got the kabab and chicken sandwich with a side of fries. Both sandwiches were very good, small portions but just enough for us. The fries are the reason I didn't give 5*. Ours were cold on the one side of the basket and very hot on the other side. Made us think they were microwaved. We didn't want to send it back so we just didn't eat them and enjoyed what the restaurant is actually specialized in: middle eastern meats and flavors. Count around $8/person. read more

Food is delicious they have a version of Fall River meat pies very tasty I had the chicken schawrma plate hummus's awesome definitely come again read more

Great food, decent prices, and friendly service. Enough said. Tried the chicken shawarma and it was delicious. Will definitely return in the near future. read more

So delicious, fresh, and flavorful! Add to that such friendly, nice service and it's a total win for you! I've eaten here many times, and it's ALWAYS excellent. I've eaten pretty much everything on their menu at this point, so just know that if you like Mediterranean food, you'll love Caravan! If you've never had it, and want to try it, this is a great place as the food is authentic, made in-house, delicious, and they'll be happy to help you decide what to try. Very, very nice folks! No matter what you order, it'll be freshly made to order, so it's not instant service like a fast food joint, and it's not a long wait, either. There's also a bakery so you can get freshly-made Middle Eastern breads and pastries. You will not be hungry after you're finished; their portions are big and the food is filling. Plus, it's so damned good that you can't stop until you're too full! They have a little indoor seating, but with Covid and our now-mild weather, you can sit outside at one of their concrete picnic tables. So, take all of our happy customer reviews to heart and go get your Caravan Grill on! (P.S. The Baba Ganoush is nice and smoky, which is the best!) read more

We ordered the Chicken Shwararma plate for $9.99 and it fed both my friend and me ample portions. It came with a delicious long grain yellow tinted rice, pieces of herbed chicken, and a salad with delicious dressing. I wish there had been a little bit of baba ganoush or hummus on the plate, plus some of their flatbread, but, alas, not so. The couple who run it are very friendly and welcoming, and do a good job with the small space and kitchen. read more

I stopped by and had a falafel plate....it was outstanding! The falafel was warm and fresh, the hummus was smooth, tasty, and all was plentiful. I was also completely satisfied with the salad on the side... crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, tons of Persian cucumbers, and a perfectly herbed dressing. I would have licked the plate, but was able to clean it well with the abundant pita bread provided. I will definitely be back!! read more

Always delicious, authentic and freshly prepared to order. It can be a little slow, but it is worth the wait.

My first visit to Caravan Grill was sadly not great. Caravan Grill took over Zaatar's space. The restaurant interior feels brighter, with nice new chairs and tables, otherwise not much different in layout. The menu is not too different either; they even had a lamb shank special, just as Zaatar used to have. Sadly, my meal fell short of my Zaatar experiences. I ordered the chicken schwarma plate (again something that Zaatar served). There were 3 ways in which it fell short. First and foremost, the chicken was terribly dried out. (Zaatar's chicken was always so moist!). Second, the plate, which I believe was the same price as Zaatar's, lacked pita bread. (Zaatar's bread was distinctive, made on site). Third, the portion overall was smaller than Zaatar's. With the Zaatar plate, I always had to take some home; not so with Caravan Grill's plate. I'll try again, but dang, I wish Zaatar had not moved out! Their bread alone was worth the visit. read more

Oh my! Absolutely the best Mediterranean food I've had in Tucson! Baba is smokey and tasty. Pita is baked here right before serving it. Tabouli is great and grape leaves are wonderful. However don't come here for fine dining. It's small and was probably an old Ice cream place or pizza. About 6 tables. Good friendly service. I'll be back read more

Everything we ate was fantastic! We shared a veggie platter, chicken swarma salad and gyro platter. All of the food was fresh and high quality with delicious spices. When you walk in, the smell of fresh baked bread and pastries make your mouth water. Although it's counter ordering, the food is made at the time of order and takes about 10 minutes. I highly recommend this fabulous, family-owned restaurant. read more
