We stopped by for dinner after our kiddo played at Next Level Play Center next door. I've wanted to…read moretry this restaurant forever and I'm so glad we finally made it! We ordered a combination platter #5 (chicken and falafel), a chicken wrap with fries and a drink, and hummus with pita. The food was amazingly fresh and delicious. The fries were so crispy and the hummus was very flavorful. I loved the Lebanese olive oil that was in the hummus... definitely one of the best olive oils I have ever tasted. I was only able to eat half of the wrap and have leftovers for lunch. The employees were kind and patient with my family when we tried to decide what to order. They answered questions without complaint. The restaurant had plenty of comfortable seating and was clean and well decorated. I will definitely be going back here with my family any time we are in the area!

Came back here again for catering (this is my second time) and they were just as amazing. I ordered…read morefor another event at my house and everything went so smoothly. They're always super friendly and attentive. They even offered to help me carry everything out to my car which I really appreciated. And the cutest part the owner's dad went and grabbed me two falafels for the road like that was so sweet. I love supporting family-owned businesses, especially when they're this consistent. The food is always fresh, and even a day or two later it still tastes really good which is a big deal for catering. This is definitely my go-to now for events. I'll 100% keep using them and recommending to my friends.

Which made me do this review........go for this drink alone and try the food..... Found this in the food center of the HIP mall??

I tried Falafel Makers for the first time the other day, and it was honestly just okay…read more This quick service restaurant is located in the HIP (Harlem Irving plaza mall) in the food court. The workers are very friendly and provided good service, but the food itself is just kind of bland compared to other Mediterranean restaurants I tried. They also only have wraps, no pitas if you want a sandwich. Overall, it's an okay place to get a quick service lunch in the mall, but don't expect something like Pita Inn.

We went to cafe Habibi thinking that we will get fresh homemade iraquí food…read more The server was wonderfully attentive, and this the only reason why I am giving it two stars. She was the server, the cook, manager and everything. We were tempted to leave, the place was completely empty! However, we decided that it would be a "different" experience to eat alone, the only couple. At the end....don't we look for different experiences when we go out to dine? Well, this was one of a kind. The server/Chef/hostess/manager made our dinner a little more enjoyable. The appetizers were really fresh. The main entrees were not so fresh and lack the tasting of other similar places. The coffee was prepared fresh and the best desserts were the dates with cream. I have to be honest with the review. I don't see how this place is going to continue to be open. Don't waste time and money....unless You want to dine in a empty restaurant or if you want to have the whole place for yourself.

After we got menus, we waited a while and no one came, so we went up to the counter to order. The food itself was pretty good. One main dish is at least enough for two people, and each dish came with plenty of rice. There's a sauce in the side that had a good kick to it! I split the combination platter with my kiddo--it was enough for us with leftovers. The lamb chops were the best in my opinion. We went up to the counter to pay at the end. Overall, everything is fairly slow paced.

Shawarma Bite has tasty bowls - they also have apps, soups, salads, sandwiches, and plate options…read more We ordered their Steak Shawarma, their Kefta Kabob, and the Chicken Shawarma - all came with 4 toppings of your choice and tahini or garlic sauce. We opted for the red cabbage, baba ghanouj, hummus, and pickles - everything was fresh and made-to-order! Don't sleep on their lentil soup! Both staff and service are extremely friendly and welcoming! There are a few tables inside to dine-in; we saw a lot of patrons doing pick-up and carry-out orders.

I'm so glad the first time we ordered, I got the main entree version of this. We also ordered for a vegetarian friend who really enjoyed the freshness of their veggies and how delicious their homemade bread was. If you do eat meat, their offerings are really fresh and well seasoned. My partner and I always notice how the chicken kebab in particular is so juicy and tender. Everything always comes out well seasoned and is eaten within a few minutes. We love the meals here. Be sure to be bit flexible when you're ordering at peak hours: this place is popular and often bustling with customers!
