Baba ganoush- fantastic. It was so thick and creamy that you wouldn't expect it to be made from…read moreeggplant. It was almost the texture of hummus. Flavor wise, it was smokey and the pomegranate added a nice pop of acidity and freshness. The olive oil drizzled on top was also very good. The pita was fresh and warm and had pieces that were a little more charred which was great. Cauliflower sandwich- it is more of a wrap vs traditional sandwich. I liked how thin the wrap was. The cauliflower was very seasoned and cumin-y. I wish there was more pickled cabbage. The fries were thicker but it wasn't dry inside. They were also doused in zaatar seasoning and fantastic. Would get just the fries as a side or the whole thing again! Lahm bi-ajeen man'oushe- like a very flat, crispy pita with meat and tomato and pickles on top. It was good, nothing super outstanding on this one. Shakshuka- tomatoy, lamby, and jammy eggs. Cant go wrong with this. I thought it was maybe a touch salty but it went well with the pita to scoop Ngl service was a little strange in my opinion. One person arrived before the rest of us and they kept asking her to order first. They would come at random times with questions or random pauses when talking. Nothing super warm or welcoming or notable service wise

We went to Suraya for my 50 th birthday and sat at the chef's counter. I had heard great things…read moreabout Suraya and was excited to try it as I love trying new places. We had the prix fixe menu and enjoyed all of our items. It's right around the corner from Laser Wolf which is my very favorite restaurant. I wish we hadn't passed Laser Wolf on the way, because I couldn't help thinking all through dinner that the food was very good, but not quite as good as Laser Wolf's. I will say that Suraya wins for dessert. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had kanafeh which is one of my very favorite desserts. The kanafeh was one of the best I've had.

Immediately, let us know what they had run out of. Ordered the hummus and falafel, fries, and chai for the table. All of which were delicious. The falafel was crispy, and fries well seasoned. Everyone liked the food they ordered. All the entrees came out in stone pots, with big enough portions that we could have also gotten a couple entrees for everyone to share instead.

Son's friend recommended this place for sandwiches and since he said the onion rings were good that made it a must go to place! We had the: Beef shawarma maroosh style 5/5: The best thing about this humongous sandwiches is the bread is crispy but soft. I was surprised at the price but the sandwich is so big we really could have split one but ordering two left us they both. The beef is so tender it reminded me of chinese beef stew for some reason. Not that it tasted like chinese beef stew but the texture was just so melt in your mouthy! Loved the veggies on it and the sauce! chicken shawarma maroosh style 5/5: Son and DIL loved it here and recommended it. Hubs preferred it cuz he's a chicken fan and loved it for all the same reasons listed above. Onion rings 5/5: Rings were nice and crisp without being overly greasy or fried. It's a nice place with just a couple of booths inside. Originally I was only going to give it 4 stars cuz the way it's set up is weird when they tell you where to stand and where to go...it just didn't feel warm and inviting when you walk in but honestly when I'm in philly again I will make it a point to stop by so that makes it a 5 in my book.

While they are usually lightly staffed when we come, the staff is always on point, friendly, and willing to help with selections. My go to has been their platters. You get plenty of protein, a heavy salad, and some amazing rice. I mean, I do not usually get to into rice, but their is great. One of the staff recommended this non-alcoholic beers they had it various flavors which I'm sort of hooked on. I can't remember the brand but I usually go Apple or Strawberry. Their Chai is also very good if you are in a tea mood. Overall, a clear recommend in my book. Enjoy!

This is a Kebab restaurant in Philly. It has modern vibes -…read morenot really a hole in the wall vibe. It feels upscale but still small. I got some platters and I really enjoyed it. Each table has three sauces. There is the white sauce, and a red and green sauce. The white sauce is good - like a mix between ranch and tzitzaki. The green sauce is minty, and the red one is spicy. I was really happy with the lamb. It was very tender and flavorful. It also came hot out of the grill. It didn't have a "strong" lamb flavor and was slightly smoky. The rice was super fragrant. I think it had a lot of butter or oil so it felt moist, and the carrots/raisons inside were a nice touch. The food went really well with the three sauces. There was also a good cardamom flavor inside. The food came with a ciabatta-like fried bread. I recommend this restaurant

I'm very fond of the interior which is charming and understated, with an area for prayer for Muslims which is exceptionally convenient. We got lamb shank with Kabuli Pulao and chicken kofta kebab with pulao. Both were absolutely amazing. The lamb is extremely soft and tender while being juicy at the same time. Their chicken kebab is amazing too; the rice is some of the best I've had. And we always generously douse it in their white sauce, some of the best sauce I've had. I think the flavor profile is great even for people who can't handle spice, it's flavorful and very manageable even for mild Western palates. If you're looking for a good option for dine in or takeout, better go check it out.

That was more than enough for both of us and both were excellent. Service was great, prices were fair and we got our fix of a taste of Turkiye and we were on our way. Definitely recommend.

Marrakesh is one of my absolute favorite places to eat in Philadelphia!!…read more I wish it existed in more cities. This is a multicourse journey through Marrakesh that cannot be repeated anywhere else except for maybe in the real Marrakesh. From the Bastilla pastry, which is DIVINE, to the salads, the chicken and kebabs... all the way to the baklava and tea.... there is no bad bite at Marrakesh. The owners are welcoming and super amenable and make you feel like you're coming home every single time you visit. It's in a odd location, and you may feel like you are making a questionable life decision as you walk up the alley to the door, but when you arrive, you realize that in fact, it was one of the best decisions you've made in years!! When you enter, it's like you've been transported to a beautiful room in Morocco. The music, the decor, even the authentic seating make for an unforgettable experience. And if you get really lucky, you also get to see the belly dancers who are top notch! There is not a single thing I can think of to say that Marrakesh needs to improve. It is a one of a kind experience that I feel everyone should have at least once in life!

I'm so glad my friends wanted to come here to celebrate our Friendsgiving. The food was as good as I remembered , the service as ever warm and welcoming. Since I hadn't been for so long, I ate everything as was prepared - but I'm happy to hear it sounds like they have veg options on their tasting menu. I'm looking forward to trying that my next return. But I couldn't say no to their chicken after almost a decade I highly recommend checking out this business for a delicious family style cooked meal.
