Loved the food! Service was great! Very tentative making sure you were okay. Portions were more than you need for sure. Food is very flavorful. We drove over an hour and it was definitely worth the travel for the meal and service. read more

Mazari Kebab has been consistently excellent for years. The kebab is easily the best in the area, and it holds up against kebabs you'll find almost anywhere. The food is flavorful, well-prepared, and always satisfying. The staff are friendly, and the whole place delivers every time. read more

One my favorite should have been 5star however the server that came in kinda yell to my daughter when she went up to get what she asked to her and we did not understand what she said. The food as always were great, the eggplant is always the go to w sides, I had lamb chops so good the rice today are on a harder side and not the way i wanted it. My husband had the chicken was okay he said. The restaurant is clean and kinda had a renovation where we do not see their kitchen anymore. Hopefully they stay stronger because at lunch only 2 tables including us, though i think they get take out or delivery. Must try if you like this kind of mid eastern food. read more

I've been eating Mazari since 10.05.23. I have eaten there everyday, sometimes twice a day. I'm an avid Salmon eater and LOVE their salmon. The hostess is so kind and sweet as are the other employees. The place is spotless. This restaurant should be a FIVE STAR establishment. They give you the best of everything and they don't try to rake you over the coals or take advantage of your patronage. The best kept secret in Va Beach! I prefer this eatery because fresh, cooked from scratch food. NO boil n bag food. NO frozen food.... read more

I wish I lived closer. They are small. But I have gone in with a group of 8 and was seated and it was nice. The food was solid good they do run out of items . But to me that means it is fresh and delicious . All the food I have had has been good. My only drawback is I like fries with my gyros read more

Still can't get enough of this place. My GO TO meal. Is chicken kebabs platter served with Brown Basmati Rice , stewed chickpeas and eggplant. The chicken is always juicy and flavorful. And eggplant is my favorite vegetable and hard to find prepared this way in the 757 area. It's so good that I wouldn't mind then making the eggplant an entree. I always order extra when I come. I don't see any Baklava in the window but I normally order one to go as well read more

We've visited Mazari a few times over the years and finally writing a review. Quiet on Wednesday evening around 6. A two section, divided, no frills dining area without outdoor seating. We ordered takeout which was seamless. For appetizer, it was Hummus (excellent!) that came with pita chips-a welcomed change from the usual pita bread. Ordered a couple of entrees which come with two sides. The Beef/Lamb Gyro was tasty with the seasoned potato side hitting the spot. Tomato/Cucumber salad was ok. We were really looking forward to the Kobida-while the sauce was exceptional, the meat (for us) which was seasoned perfectly was unfortunately over grilled/cooked. Maybe this is the way it should be but didn't work for us. The Eggplant and spinach sides stole the show though and were our favorites. The Greek salad was fine but it was missing Feta. We ordered extra of the pita bread and loved it-if they didn't make it in-house, we need to find out the brand! Service was exceptional and enthusiastic! We will be back! read more

Absolutely delicious food! We got the lamb and beef gyro platter, gyro and hummus. Everything was great and so flavorful. The food was very reasonably priced too especially for the portion size! We ate in, you place your order and pay at counter and then they bring the food to your table. The staff was very kind and I really enjoyed my meal here! read more

This mediterranean spot gave me major NYC halal food truck vibes--the kind of place you'd hit up for lamb and rice after a late night out. I really liked the food! The portions are generous, so if you're hungry, you're definitely leaving full and satisfied. Prices are very reasonable for what you get. Service is good and we probably got our food in 20 minutes or so. The server recommended the eggplant as a side, and while I was hesitant at first, I'm so glad I went for it--it was incredibly flavorful. Even the kidney beans were good, which I usually don't get too excited about. The ribeye platter was also delicious--juicy, well-seasoned, and hit the spot. Overall, a solid meal that brought back some great memories. read more

We revisited this Mediterranean spot after a few years, and the food is still amazing. We got a To-Go. Service was quick!! We had the Chicken kobida Kebab platter and Chicken Gyro with sides ,the eggplant was fantastic and a must try! It was rich tangy and Buttery!!!Chickpeas and kidney beans were good too, but the potatoes were not that great got 3 big chunks of boiled potatoes in a gravy. The gyro had good amount of chicken.. Also noticed they now serve Lay's chips instead of their old homemade ones, which was a bit disappointing. Still, great portions, clean place, and delicious food overall!! read more

Stopped back in today and this place is still delivering delicious food and very generous servings! I tried the gyro platter and also tired the rice, potatoes, and chickpeas this time around.

First time I went here it was amazing. Just went there tonight and it was terrible. I ordered extra chicken and a skewer of steak. So that should be 3x the meat. We got 5 pieces of chicken and two pieces of steak. That to me is not right... so a regular order is 2 bites of meat? It was like 38$ for that. Just wasn't the same as the first time so I will not be coming back. Go to Azars instead. Food and portions are better. read more

Such a yummy spot for good Mediterranean food. The salmon kabobs were very flavorful along with the eggplant as my side dish. I tried the hummus and it was the very best I've had so far, besides mine lol. It's definitely a must try. The owner and staff are really friendly. read more

Um...Under New management? New kitchen staff? Not sure what's happened but it is NOT the same and it's heart breaking. Flavors have definitely changed and not in a better way for me. It's almost as if that flavors/taste overall are similar but more tart? My girlfriend immediately noticed the difference in taste as well. But sad to say that my most recent visit was very disappointing and was likely our last :( read more

From the moment my family and I walked in, we felt truly welcomed. Everyone was kind, friendly, and ready to help, answering our questions with patience and care. There was such a pleasant, inviting energy that immediately made us feel comfortable. The food was phenomenal. Truly a chef's kiss. Our group had a range of dietary needs, including vegetarian and vegan, and the menu accommodated everyone effortlessly. Nothing felt like a compromise. Everything was seasoned beautifully, full of flavor, and thoughtfully prepared. And if you like a little extra salt, it's right there on the table, just the way it should be. One of the highlights of our visit was the chef coming out to spend a few moments with us. He was gracious, warm, and genuinely kind. That personal connection made the experience feel special and memorable, not rushed or transactional. I can't believe this place wasn't already on my radar, but I'm so glad we found it. This was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and we will absolutely be back read more

Still the best kebab in VB. The meats are prepared authentically and with great pride by the friendly staff. The table service if fine, but recommend making a point of giving a wave to the guys in the kitchen. They're a good bunch of guys and genuinely love to hear that you're enjoying their food. I recommend the chicken kebab, but there's really no wrong direction to take with the menu options. read more

First time here. Greeted and place an order at the counter. Food is good just did not sit well with the garlic sauce. Eggplant and tomato cucumber salad size dishes were amazing. I would prefer that I was given a choice if I want tap water or bottle since I was not aware of this. Also - they do charge 5.5% extra for using credit card ( meal tax) aside from regular tax. read more

I haven't been here in a while and although it was good the first time. I noticed some improvements since then. Atmosphere: Casual and family oriented. Love the music choice. Service: Before it was a pay before you eat type deal, now you actually sit and get served. Great change! Love having the chance to think of what to order. Food: Hands down, FLAVORFUL! Every bite is full of flavor. Even the pita bread has a hint of flavor. I substituted the rice for chic peas, and got the kobida platter with a side of eggplant and cucumber/tomatoe salad. Love the choices of sides! So flavorful that I wouldn't mind becoming a vegetarian. read more

We were greeted immediately and it's casual dining which is fine. Also, all the food is served in take out containers which is fine too. Not sustainable for the planet but given the small staff, it's understandable. The food was delicious and cooked to order. My husband ordered the rib eye kebab medium and it was cooked medium. He also ordered a side of chicken and everything was seasoned well. I had the Kobida kebab with the special rice with carrots and raisins. Sorry! I can't remember the name of the rice but I loved it. The pita bread was soft and perfectly cooked. I am enjoying trying new cuisines and I would never have found this place without Yelp! So thanks to everyone who recommended this place. read more

I've been back a few times in late 2022 after a long absence. Both visits were lunch and the interior is the same as when they opened and very plain. Ordering is done in the back, service was friendly. Prices have increased substantially. I ordered the chicken, with sides of stewed tomatoes and chick peas. You can get sauce on the side if you wish. It comes with pita bread. No combos and drinks are bottle only. They make everything fresh except the baklava. Supposedly it actually is imported from Turkey. it took a bit to get my food out with no other customers dining in. They also were experiencing a great deal of carry-out. After 15-20 minutes my order was ready. The cashier delivered my food on a real plate, not paper as before and a bone of contention. However silverware was plastic. Ugh! It's a huge plate, be ready. Everything was correct on temperatures and darn good. I typically cannot finish the dish and again it proved too much. I will say the quality is not as good as in their first few years and prices much higher. I'm glad that I came back and was able to upgrade. Let's add in real silverware please for dine in. A weak 4 fits them. read more

The place is marketed as an Afghan restaurant, but it's actually Pakistani, and nothing we were served tasted remotely Afghan. The food came out cold. We ordered a lamb platter and grilled salmon, yet got plain chipotle-style rice with beans, gyro meat, and a piece of boiled, unseasoned fish. Not only was it misleading, but it was one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had since we traveled all ways from North Caroline to this restaurant. read more

This is hands down one of VB's gems. My favorite place to get Mediterranean food and gyros. You have to get the lamb and beef gyro platter, it's such a good bang for your buck. I usually get it with the chickpeas and tomato and cucumber salad. The meat is so tender, juicy and flavorful paired with the tzatziki sauce and buttery rice. Getting the eggplant side is a must, they sometimes sell out! The service is always good whether you dine in or take out. It's pretty fast as well, we dined in this and our food was ready within 5-10 mins. It's pretty spacious inside, not much decor but it looks clean and minimal. Definitely a must try if you're in VB and in the mood for Mediterranean! read more

This is a small out of the way restaurant specializing in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine located on N Witchduck Road not far from Joint Base Little Creek and Town Center. The restaurant is clean and seems to be recently renovated. You walk in past a serving window to the host in the back to order. The menu has some variety, but is not overwhelming. Beverage options include canned soda, fountain drinks and Turkish coffee. The staff are extremely polite and friendly. I enjoyed the beef and lamb gyro (doner). As you can see in the photo. This thing was packed with meat. It is also filled with lettuce, tomato, red onion and tzatziki sauce. The tzatziki appears to be homemade and used more mint than I have experienced at other restaurants. I upgraded my side from chips to potatoes. These are a boiled potato with a garlicky tomato sauce. It was worth the additional cost to upgrade. I throughly enjoyed my meal and would recommend Mazari's as a must try for their Gyros. read more

Went to Mazari with our three grandchildren. For an appetizer we ordered the Hummus. The Fried Pita Chips served along with were a pleasant surprise. They were well-seasoned and crispy. For our meals, we had the Salmon Kebab Platter with an extra side of Chicken. The girls had the Chicken Platter. All the food was fresh. The proteins were flavorful and very tender. I can't say whether we enjoyed the Salmon or the Chicken most. Both were great. The staff are friendly and attentive. I appreciate that the children were welcomed and acknowledged. It's a small restaurant that probably gets most of its business from carry-out. There are at least five four-tops in the main dining room. I appreciate also the jazz music played during the meal. Good eating music. read more

Mazari is pumping out some serious flavor!!! Mediterranean cuisine is at the top of my list when it comes to takeout and Mazari hit all of the marks. Luckily, it just happens to be located nearby and we stumbled across it on Yelp. It was a night when we weren't up for cooking and their menu sounded great. We ordered takeout via phone and were quoted 15 minutes, which was right on the money. I picked it up, brought it home, and we were able to eat it fresh and hot. What we ordered; a little bit of everything. We got two of their platters, the lamb chop platter and the gyro platter. In the future, we could definitely share one because their portions are generous, but it will definitely be hard to narrow down choices because it was all so good. Both meats were perfectly prepared. The lamb chops (4) were super tender and flavorful, with the perfect medium serve. All of the sauces and spices complimented the lamb nicely. The gyro was also great; very tender and flavorful. we also ordered a side of falafel, which is always a favorite and theirs was by far the best I've had. 10/10 on all of these. Surprisingly though, my favorite bite of the night was their eggplant. For each platter, you choose two sides, which is very generous and we chose 4 different ones. All were delicious, but that eggplant is next level. If you get anything from this review, order the eggplant. Service was also awesome. Both gals working the front were friendly and very welcoming. read more
