I agree with a few other yelpers that the shawarma is not very flavorful. I came in today very hungry and this type of food is my favorite so I ordered the combo wrap with chicken, lamb and beef. Half way through the wrap I wasn't keen to even finish it as I did not particularly enjoy what I was eating! read more

We ordered takeout, and it was done on time. The food was delicious, especially the chicken kebabs. They give generous portions, and though it was not totally hot when we picked it up it tasted fine being heated int he microwave. read more

I love oasis! I get the chicken and hummus plate. It's just chopped chicken schwarma on top of a bed of delicious hummus. They give you a whole pita. Yum, my favorite thing to get, could eat this everyday. Service is also very fast and friendly. read more

This the best spot in the entire Bay Area, great fresh fool , oasis team is the best at customer services and especially both Muhammad chief are best at what they do. Really appreciate their hospitality. read more

We love this place. The food is so good and we never have wait a long time. Overall I think this is the best middle eastern cuisine spot I've encountered. And that's including DC! read more

Yum! Glad this place finally opened. Great falafel and chicken shawarma. The falafel is fried fresh to order, so be prepared to wait a bit for that. Good value on the plates; its a lot of good food. Get the rice instead of fries-it's delicious. read more

The rice is very good The coffee very strong but good The servers are very kind The place setting and the music is a plus I recommend this place! read more

Food was below mediocre. Ordered shawarma plate but they didn't warn me that they ran out of rice, so I had it with fries. The fries were actually the best part of my meal. My meat tasted old and microwaved. I had to beg them a few times for my side samosa, which was also questionable. I was also put off by the service. After the cashier made a judgmental comment about my friend, he served me tea (not mint as I requested) with a bandaged finger over the lid...no glove or anything. Service was confusing because although he brought me my tea, he shouted out the rest of our orders as if we were at a fast food restaurant. Not worth the $14 plus $2 tip. Not ever going back. Skip this place and head to Bacheesos, about a block away. It was also really cold and kind of dirty inside. read more

We were walking down Grand and stumbled onto this place. I ordered the combo meat shawarma and the humus plate. I was irritated about how long it took for the food to come out along with a few items that were missing. I was pleasantly surprised on how good the food is. The portions are big and it was just incredible. I do plan to go again. read more

It took 30 minutes to make a shawarma wrap which was already made (not fresh!) Really disappointed. read more

Solid food, but this review is for UberEats delivery-- they Jack up the prices 30% and don't even offer the cheaper vegetarian plates. They claim delivery within 30 minutes, but took way longer and will charge you if you try to cancel, even if it's way past the delivery time and food isn't even on its way. False advertising, total scam!!@@ read more

By far one of the best middle eastern restaurants in the Bay Area. Try they lamb and beef shawarma sandwich or plate. Try their Kefta kebab plate! All are delicious! Definitely coming back for more. Too bad they are not in the peninsula! I'll come by every time I come to the east bay read more

Customer service is not that great . Place order and the cook forgot about order had to remind cashier after waiting 15 minutes , at that time they just started preparing the order so waited half hour for simple order . read more

Always friendly staff. My favorite is the falafel, but there are plenty of other yummy goodies on their menu. Short walk from the hospital if you're tired of having hospital food. We often used to come as a large group from school and always got hot food with relatively quick service. read more

It is not a fancy place but food was delicious. Pita, hummus, babaganoush,falafel, all were great and so was the chicken and rice.

My go-to shawarma place in Oakland! My favorites are their Kifta Kebab wrap, shawarma and veggie plates, flavorful with the tahini sauce & lavash wrap. I also love their sides, especially their eggplant and cauliflower. Prices are great, and whether I've gotten delivery, picked up or ate in, I've always been pleased! read more

It is rare to find a place with such good falafel, and here they are truly superb, straight from the fryer, hot, fresh, not oily, and perfect in flavor. I had a vegetarian combo plate. Portions were generous. In addition to the falafel, the other items were expertly crafted. My only gripe was that the cauliflower could have been less oily. read more

Mohamad and his gentleman were Awsome! The food rocks here. I love the food here. Try them out u won't be disappointed

The chicken shawarma was very good, the tabouli salad was good also the hummus was just OK. the portions are small ,prices are a bit high but due to the location understandable .definitely a must try place read more

Not very authentic or clean or that good to be honest. Had the chicken shawarma and was disappointed. Won't be back...

Finally tried this place for the first time. I had the standard item, falafel wrap, it was juicy and delicious. I liked the fact that they put cabbage in it, too. Like most wraps though, it was huge. I hope they make smaller size wraps with less price as wraps are not very tasty left-over. Wasting food is against my philosophy, so I ate it the next day. It was soggy. read more

I like the Chicken Shawarma wrap and the falafel here. Pretty hearty and authentic! There's not too much seating inside and gets really stuffy because there's only one window and no a/c so I suggest pick-up vs. dine-in. Hot sauce isn't hot enough, that's my only tip for improvement :-) read more

This place has the best falafel and hummus in the Bay Area and the girl who works behind the counter is the nicest person in the world. I love this place! read more

No way would this pass as middle eastern food for me. I got the kufta kabob plate. rice was tasty but kabob was dry and not marinated as good as an authentic kufta kabob. I just don't think this place tries that hard since there isn't much competition for them. If you want good arabic food go to anaheim, ca and try Zeit and Zataar or Forn alhara! otherwise don't waste your time here! read more

After waiting for at least a year for Oasis Grill to open, finally, Finally, FINALLY, the grand opening is Monday 4/27/15!!! Today, Saturday, the doors are open and they're giving out free samples. These are the same folks who run the Oasis Market on Telegraph, the Oasis Lounge above the Grill and the Lake Merritt Super next door. Judging by the samples, I expect the same excellent food as the Telegraph location. But this one is much closer to my apartment and I'm sure I'll be stopping here for a falafel wrap pretty often. Yeah!! read more

The best middle eastern food in the whole bay area very authentic and kinda reasonably affordable.

The portions here seem smaller than the Telegraph location. Maybe the rent has gotten out of control like the rest of the Bae Area? Food is still delicious, though I would have appreciated more than a few pieces of lettuce and 4 smallish cubes of lamb in my lamb kabob shwarma. It felt more like a snack than an actual meal here, whereas at the other location I always leave extremely satisfied. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ read more

I don't usually like lamb. I've had it prepared deliciously a few times but more often than not- it's gross and chewy. Upon asking what's fresh I was told that the lamb shawarma is hot, fresh and a favorite. What the hell- I gave it a shot. I'm so glad I did. The wrap was full of tender and flavorful lamb with a tangy sauce and some veggies. The portion was generous and the service was gracious. I'll gladly return any time I'm in the area and will order the lamb shawarma again. read more

the food is wily not middle eastern test and the service is ok anyway for real food i recommended oren homos in palo alto read more

First of all let me say the food here is good. The Shawwarma and baclava, amazing. The service sucks. Usually that's not a big deal to me if the food is good. But they keep messing up my order and then give me an attitude when I tell them. I really like this place and you can have good food and bad service and still be a solid place. But mix in rude service with mistakes and it just doesn't work anymore. I may change my review but for now it stays at a 2. read more

Excellent food. I especially love the lamb shish kebab and the tabbouli. Pleasant people. Reasonable prices. Modest space.

Stale spinach pies. Cold fries. Dry falafel. Long wait. Weird cheeseburger (but, the meat was yummy). Disappointed.

This place is below average I don't understand why the ratings are so high. I didn't have good food or good service. We ordered and waited quite a while for a veggie plate. When 2 people that came in separately after us received their orders I went up to the counter and asked about my order. The woman behind the counter says "it's right here" and gives it to me. I don't know how long it had been sitting there... I take it back to the table and realized half of my order was missing. So I have to ask her for it. She brings out a few plates and eventually we have our full order. Nothing special and kind of bland. We had to send back the spinach pie because it was so hard we couldn't even cut through it. They didn't bring us another one because they were all hard as a rock. They did offer a refund on the pie. Needless to say we won't return. read more

This is a review of the restaurant through delivery by Eat 24. Oasis' food is probably good but we wouldn't really know because what we got was cold and messy food. The delivery person brought our food on a bicycle. So when it arrived, half of the sauce and hummus was out of the container and in the plastic bag. Everything was also cold by then. I think if they were warm, it would be fine. Falafels were very dry though. If we were to try this place again, I would go there and not get delivery. read more

This place is amazing. The food taste good and customer service is on point. My favorite is the shawarma combo plate.

Amazing food. Been searching for a great falafel place close to home. Found something in oasis that was better than I could have hoped for. Amazing hummus. Awesome kebabs. Great baklava. read more

I've had the lamb shawarma twice, veggie combo, and chicken shawarma. Lamb shawarma was very flavorful the first time. Veggie combo was ok. I'd stay away from the chicken shawarma. Nice staff overall. Guess they noticed I was unfamiliar with the food so they always end up offering tastings lol. read more

I have to say the Chicken Shawarma Plate was good. The sides were at bit too tart-like too much lime or something -they just tasted off. Plus the Nan bread was mediocre . The Spinach bread with Feta was extremely good! The Price was right and the meat was on point. If those sides were better and they didn't forget my baklava it would be 4 stars. Its worth a try. read more

So good. We've eaten here three times in the past two weeks; three orders of veggie combos and a lamb gyro. Hummus is garlicky and delicious; roasted eggplant has a wonderful smoky flavor. Lamb was flavorful and tender. My only complaint is that they are so slooow to serve the food. Normally I might dock a star for that but let's be honest- all you care about is the food, and it rocks. read more

We decided to try these guys for dinner and the pita bread and hummus was awesome! As were the falafel balls! We ordered the chicken kabob plates for our entrée and the chicken was burnt to a crisp, and the ones we could eat, the texture of the chicken was very chewy and just not to my liking. It was due to being overcooked! 4 pieces of chicken were burnt black! Maybe we caught them on an off day? I don't know...we'll give them another shot in the future and will update then...3 stars from us...has the potential to be a 4 or 5 star, but man that burnt chicken was bad! read more
