Different cuisine all together...it's not an apples to apples comparison; I'm just referring to the taste quotient :) The point is, despite not being super hungry we thoroughly enjoyed the food. I went on a Saturday night and got the pork kebab sandwich...it was amazing. The folks who work there we so very nice as well. Went back on Monday night and got the chicken sandwich. Besides the meat, the bread is outstanding and makes an excellent sandwich! Thanks for the great food Alexi!

We've been in…read moreMexico for six weeks so a change and cuisine sounded good, and we had fallen in love with Turkish wraps last year elsewhere. We were delighted. The service was excellent and friendly with the owner offering a free appetizer. The chicken doner was heavenly and the restaurant itself, clearly knew, is clean and bright. We plan to get by there again later this week as we keep talking about how much we enjoyed it and keep thinking about it. If you like shawarma meats you will be glad to know about this nice place. If you have never had this kind of meal, you should try it because it's spectacular. Order with everything they offer to put in, salad, peppers, onions, sauce. It's great.

We stumbled into Merkava after flying into CDMX. Our Airbnb was not available yet so we wanted a…read morecomfortable, air conditioned restaurant where we could kill at least 1.5 hours. Merkava is a beautiful little restaurant in La Condesa with both indoor and outdoor seating. As mentioned, we were tired from traveling and picked the cool, indoor seating and enjoyed the nice decor. We started with hummus and, not realizing it came with pita, also ordered the house bread. The hummus was a huge portion, enough to feed a group of 7-8 and came with a pouch of several warm pitas. The hummus was homemade and a bit chunky. The house bread was even better, coils of bread with tahini butter, serrano chili oil, and a tomato cumin sauce. The bread was fantastic, warm from being freshly baked and with buttery layers and the variety of dipping sauces was pleasant for dipping. A show-stopper of a dish was the whole roasted cauliflower served with zaatar, yogurt, and mint. Our head was cut into manageable portions for us, but interestingly, they served the adjacent table with a whole head for a more dramatic presentation. The cauliflower was tender and its mild flavor was enhanced by the zaatar spices. The fish of the day was the better of the two entrees. We liked the sauteed vegetables with lentils that it was served with, much like a ratatouille with lentils, along with a parsley sauce and grilled lemon. The wagyu kebabs were an odd texture, crumbled and dry. The restaurant provided a complimentary bite of dessert, a fruit (date, apricot) baklava of sorts that was a sweet bite to end the meal. All in all, we had a good meal at Merkava.

Found myself nearby and was craving some good hummus and other typical Arabic dishes. I've eaten…read moremiddle-eastern food everywhere from Detroit to Dubai to Buenos Aires. I can summarize this restaurant: - Food: above average, nothing spectacular. -Staff Service: The waiter was great and attentive, nothing out of the ordinary. - Cashier/likely the owner: grumpy, didn't look like she wanted to be there. Gave me the dirty look because I added 10% of the check in tip, which all the locals told me is fair. Probably was the Lebanese owner. Mexicans can't be that grumpy. -Price: 320 pesos for a buffet, basically about the same price you'd get in the U.S. or the Emirates. All in all, I wouldn't go back because of the price and the grumpy cashier. Este restaurante necesita otro cajero! La mujer que está trabajando como un cajero estaba mala y se va como no quiera trabajar. Creo que es una mujer arabe y tal vez el dueño....No me importa. Los meseros estaban muy amables y sus servicio estuve bien. Los precios son carros, 320 pesos por comida arabe de calidad básica. Si quieres comer aquí, evita el cajero y paga tu mesero directamente.

We went as a family of 7 and were the first customers of the day. We ordered from the Menu rather than trying the buffet. We love middle eastern food, and Arabe Miguel did not disappoint. For drinks we had pitchers of Mint Lemonade which was excellent and not lacking in flavor, as well as a couple of pitchers of the Mint Lassi which was excellent. The Turkish coffee was also very good. We had the cheese flat bread which was like a pretty good quesadilla, the Stuffed Grape Leaf dish was very good and was served warn rather than cold which is my preference, the Tabule was very good, and they prepared without fresh onion for us, Falafel was very good, Hummus was very good, as was the Baba Ghanoush although a bit on the limey side, the assorted Kebabs (Alambres) were tasty although all of the meat was a bit overcooked, and we tried the Lamb and Chicken Shawarma, which was also god, prepared in flatbread. Service was good overall. If you are in the mood for Middle Eastern food, they have been in business since 1944 so they had certainly passed the test of time, and do not disappoint and we recommend.
