    Garlic sauce
    M. W.

    This is an older establishment. Can use a little updating. Ordered the falafel plate. The sides were delicious and fresh. The falafel was dry but still had the best flavor and aroma. My partner had the steak sandwich on a pita. Meat could of been a tad fresher. Friendly staff end of the day so they looked tired. Give this establishment a try and give us your review.

    Chicken Tawook plate
    Gregory S.

    Friendly service at counter. Some of the fountain drinks needed refills, but they have canned drinks if required. Food is made fresh (except for pitas). Good portions. Lots of chicken on Tawook plate, well-seasoned. Chicken shawarma sandwich is ok. Skimpy on the garlic sauce, but lots of chicken. Hummus is just ok. Free refills in fountain drinks. Tables and chairs are clean and in good repair.

    Really do I need to update my 5 star review to a 5 start review. Yes! The quality remains top score. Dolmas are great. The lemon salmon off the charts. I think they recently changed the menus so if you have not been here in a while you must. Staff is always friendly and polite. Totally my local favorite because it's walking distance - or plenty of parking and great food. It's a cafe style so don't expect waited services. Sit where available. Place has always been spotless. So wha ya waiting for.

    Customer service was lacking. Kibeh or kibee was the best. Meat seemed bland and so did the chicken. We love kebabs and can recommend so many good places but this unfortunately isn't one we will come back too. The soup had great reviews but I think they over did it on turmeric this time. I'll post a picture so you can see the color, compared to the other lentil soup pictures on here. The place definitely needs a little sprucing up.

    Stopped in for lunch on a weekday, after reading positive yelp reviews! You might miss this place if you weren't looking for it because of the busy shopping center it's located in. Tons of parking, lots of seating inside, friendly staff, and super quick service. I tried the Fattoush salad, it was ready in under two minutes. The salad dressing was delicious - full of fresh herbs, it was also a good portion and fair price. The staff behind the counter helping take my order was extremely friendly and welcoming. Will be coming back if I find myself in the area, I recommend giving them a try for yourself!

    Beef Shawarma Plate hitting the soul oof
    Nadia M.

    Mazaya is one of those places you order when you want comfort food. It is one of my all time favorite restaurants in the area by far. The beef shawarma plate is incredibly delicious and can easily be split for 2 people, their portions are massive. Today I ordered the lentil soup too because it is a rainy day, and it is also a hefty portion, also delicious. In case you haven't noticed by my multiple reviews of this place, I love mazayas!! Lol

    Chicken Shawarma Plate
    Nicole K.

    Came here for a quick dinner, we ordered beef and chicken shawarma plate. Their portion is pretty big and can be easily shared by 2 people. However, the meat was on the dry side and I wish they gave more of the white sauce or at least have it on the side. Service was good, we got our food within 10 mins of ordering. I'm interested in trying kafta next time.

I arrived about 20 minutes after placing the order but still had to wait another 20 minutes, making the total wait time about 40 minutes. The beef shawarma was disappointing--it wasn't thinly sliced as expected but more like chopped or minced beef, and the flavor just wasn't up to par. I also ordered three kibbeh balls but only received two; the third was oddly replaced with chicken nugget pieces. The chicken tawook wrap was poorly prepared, lacked flavor, and was very underwhelming. Overall, the food didn't taste good, and with the long wait and odd substitutions without considerations. I wouldn't recommend this place.

With salad but barely filled half way in the half-sized to-go box, for $18. Came with a side of "pita bread" but it's actually pieces of flour tortilla... what?? Biggest complaint is the wait. With only 2 people ahead of me, having to wait over 30 minutes for my food. I see only 2 guys working in the kitchen and one of them is the cashier, ON A LUNCH HOUR. Clearly, they are making short cuts to maximize their profits. Will not return.

There are so many different kebabs to choose from, and I've yet to have one that wasn't delicious. My personal favorites are the steak and the chicken--both are incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. One thing you absolutely cannot skip is the edamame hummus. I had never even heard of edamame hummus before coming here, and now I can't believe I went so long without trying it. It was smooth, fresh, and full of flavor while putting such a unique twist on traditional hummus. It's one of those dishes that completely changes your expectations and has you thinking about it long after you've left the restaurant. On top of the amazing food, the service was outstanding. Everyone made us feel genuinely welcome, and the atmosphere was warm, relaxing, and perfect whether you're grabbing a casual lunch or having dinner with friends or family. The menu is packed with so many dishes that I still want to try, which just gives me another reason to keep coming back. Panini Kabob Grill continues to deliver an incredible experience, and I can't recommend it enough.

She asked us to wait while she cleaned up a table on the outside , surprising to me because there was nobody outside nonetheless we waited. Our server was a man whose service was subpar to say the least he rarely checked up on us, and when it was time for us to receive our food, one of the guests in my party did not receive their food at the same time as the others, it seemed as though they might have forgotten to make that guest's dinner so he had to wait an extra 15 minutes the waiter and another waiter would come to the table and ask him what did you order again? What was it again? Which demonstrated unorganized employees, considering they took our order they should just reference that instead of coming back-and-forth multiple times and making the guest wait longer each time. I ordered a chicken Parm Panini with chicken soup. The chicken Parm sandwich was average however, I was disappointed with the size of the chicken. I lifted the bread and there was a measly morsel of chicken, considering the price of a Panini; I was expecting a bit more! The chicken soup was horrible. It tasted like water with hardly any broth. They threw in random vegetables with dry shredded pieces of chicken, my other guests who had chicken soup also disliked the quality and taste of the soup. Poor selection of drinks. Overall, poor service, bland food. When it was time to pay our waiter didn't show up so I walked to the front and asked for the bill then paid there. For almost 200$ this was a disaster; I will look into other Mediterranean restaurants.

The rice looked like rice, but it smelled and tasted like gasoline, which means they either used too much saffron or it was cheap or old. The chicken was too burnt I couldn't taste anything else. The sauces couldn't even save it they were just too sour/lemony. The beef had too much fat in it, not very good quality for the price - $20+ shawarma. The fries were the best part
