I had actually ordered my food to go and was there for a pick up. It seems that most people come in to pick up their food. I ordered the salmon and hummus plate and my man ordered the gyro salad. Both meals tasted light, fresh and healthy. They both came with a tasty warm pita, and the gentleman that owns the restaurant also included a free piece of a lemon cream pie that seemed to have a homemade crust. Yummy! I did not get any hummus with my meal which it was called the salmon and hummus plate, but not a dealbreaker. I would definitely return to this restaurant.

Overall, I really enjoyed the food. The salad was fresh, and the börek rolls were fresh, flaky, and…read moredelicious. I liked them a lot. The kebabs were flavorful, fresh, and the meat is halal, although the portions were a bit on the small side. The lamb shish was also a little tough for my taste. The künefe was amazing, made fresh and served hot. Probably one of the freshest and best tasting I've had in the U.S. The tea, however, was a bit cold, and the istakan wasn't even filled all the way. The restaurant itself was clean and nicely decorated, and I had no complaints about the service. Overall, a very good experience, especially for the food and künefe.

When I opened the box I was shocked at how little meat was included…read more Don't get me wrong, the lamb did taste good and the rice was cooked well. Salad was very mid, no real flavor. This much meat for a $29 order?? I think this place is overpriced, and not good enough to make sense of the small meat portion.

My second favorite was the grilled chicken. We tried all the borak and my fav was the cheese and lamb. I didnt like the spinach because it was pickled. The restaurant is pretty big and good for big parties. Parking can get a little challenging but if you come early enough its not too bad. The staff was really good too, we had little kids and they were very accommodating and interacted with the kids. They also gave us ice cream since it was someone's birthday.

A Wonderful Evening at Tahini Restaurant…read more We had such a wonderful evening at Tahini Restaurant! The service was excellent, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the food was delicious. They had unfortunately run out of baklava, but Raz came through like a superhero! Just 15 minutes before closing, he managed to bring two of us baklava--and what a way to finish the meal! That kind of service and attention to your guests really makes a difference. And don't forget to get the pickles! They're listed on the menu as pickled cucumbers, although to me, they taste just like delicious kosher dill pickles. I'm not sure why they're called something different, but that tangy flavor adds such an amazing touch to the meal. Thank you, Tahini, for a great meal, great atmosphere, and a great evening with my cousin. And Raz, you're definitely our baklava superhero! ‍ Five stars all around!

The menu was a bit confusing, but I know that I like grilled veggies and Greek salad and then Ike was able to pick my protein that I wanted so that seemed easy enough. The base price with falafel or chicken Shawarma was Close to $16 but since I chose the meat, they added two dollars to my total. It took about 10 minutes for them to assemble my meal, but my veggies were cooked fresh on the stove, which was really nice. They tasted very freshly cooked just as they would as if I had cooked them myself at home. I was there about 1245 on a Monday and there were a few people there and they had some takeout orders so my order took about 10 minutes before I could walk out the door with it. They had a nice condiment bar where you could pick out some yogurt with dill sauce and then they're famous garlic yogurt sauce, as well as a jalapeño sauce And another spicy hot one that I would never try. When I got back to the jury room to eat my meal, I saw that there was a nice quantity of the fresh salad and the grilled vegetables but the meat was piled high! The employees were working efficiently and the place was spotless and orderly.

We came here for a late lunch, so we were lucky that there was a parking spot opened up right in the plaza. I can not imagine how difficult parking would be during the busy time! I assume you will need to find street parking. Although the plaza is small, the restaurant is big! It has many tables inside, including larger areas for groups. We went in and saw a family having dinner together. That really gave the restaurant a warm family vibe. You can see in the decorations that they have earned many recognitions and had even been on Guy's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives show! What an amazing place! We started the lunch with a nice mint lemonade! OMG! I highly recommend this! I would go back just for this, so refreshing and perfect way to be primed for a great meal. We had three items, Soujouk Flat Bread, Baba Ghannouj, and Ouzi Lamb. The portion is large! We could not finish and had to take to-go for two of us. I love their baba ghannouj! Very authentic and come with the bread. The serve was smiling when I asked whether it came with the bread. He eventually also told us that we should open the bread like a pita and put baba ghannouj in there. I appreciate the guidance on how to enjoy the food. I also loved soujouk flat bread. So delicious! The highly recommended ouzi lamb lived up to the expectation and it's very delicious. Overall, I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. We will come back for sure because they have so many good delicious food on the menu that we need to try!

This spot was featured on food network & was previously voted #1 restaurant in the country on yelp! Those are high standards that Shawarma Guys lives up to!
