    I was searching for a good middle eastern restaurant around me and i stumbled onto Syriana. Happy I did because the food was great. We ordered off the RAMADAN 5-COURSE IFTAR MENU which came with One Appetizer One Soup One Main Dish One Drink One Dessert for $28.00 (+$4.00 Lamb) I got Hummus and pita bread for my appetizer. I really enjoyed how smooth the hummus was. For my main dish I wanted lamb shawarma. The staff accommodated me with that substitution. Happy they did because it was delicious. For soup I ordered lentil. It was good but I was barely warm when I received it. To drink I had the hibiscus. Last but not least I got baklava for dessert, which I enjoyed. The Staff here were friendly and accommodating. This Restaurants ambience was perfect. Light Arabic music playing in the background with big comfy cushioned booths . All we were missing was more pillows and a hookah. Overall food here was delicious and I would eat / order from here again.

    Saj bread! I feel like it's so hard to find in my area (Fall River/ Providence). Saj is a thinner chewy flat bread for shawarma. I want in the area and wanted to try a proper shawarma. Decided on this place. Walked in and I was the only customer. Took a seat and knew what I wanted. I ordered a chicken shawarma with a mint limeade. I should have asked for more hot sauce. Food same out pretty quick. There was so much flavor and the mint limeade was good, enough tartness it was refreshing. I'd definitely go back if I was in the area.

    I found this restaurant through a Yelp research and was not surprised, given the immediate area, that it is located in a less than prosperous shopping center. The restaurant itself is relatively large and clean. The one employee I interacted with was both friendly and informative. I settled on a pair spinach pies (fatayers) that were consumed by my wife and I in the car. Though they were tasty and of good size, each would have benefited by having them heated a bit longer.

    The food here is really good, I highly recommend the chicken shawarma, falafel, and kabsa. I personally think the chicken tastes better than the lamb but both are good choices. The hummus is one of the best that I've had in CT, and so is the chicken shawarma. They toast the outside which adds more flavor and texture. The portions are generous although it does take some time to get your food if you're dining in. We came as a large group of 8 adults, 2 kids, and 2 babies and had good service. There's plenty of seating inside and high chairs, however the bathrooms do not have changing tables.

    Outstanding Syrian food in a dated strip mall on Allen St in New Britain. I was absolutely blown away by the quality of this food. For appetizers, I tried the spicy hummus and the falafel - both served with warm pita bread. For my entree, I had the Lamb Shawerma with Rice Platter. It came with a small salad and a serving of hummus, both finished with a sprinkle of sumac. My lamb was tender and juicy, cut up on a bed of rice with a liberal helping of tahini on top. My friend ordered the Lamb Ouzi. It was served with rice and peas with ground lamb that was seasoned to perfection with notes of cinnamon and possibly clove. My friend is middle eastern himself and he says it was a very authentic dish. For a drink, I had the mint lemonade which was also very good. The menu was big with various non alcoholic drinks, coffees / teas, and desserts. The service was great, and the staff was very polite. The building is dated, and it's not the cleanest restaurant I've been to, but don't let that stop you from enjoying this incredible food.

    Outstandingly delicious food with lots of authentic Mediterranean/ Arab cuisine. I have been looking for a delicious middle eastern restaurant around and found it just by accident but gonna be a regular after today.

    Halal Spot is a place that has slowly but surely crept up on my radar the last few weeks…read more Apparently, the reviews here are very good. One thing however that did make me nervous about the quality here is that halal foods in Waterbury have so far been complete misses if my past reviews are to be believed. This was also my first time using Yelp to have food delivered. So let me first talk about how long it took from the time I ordered to the time I had my food delivered. The service was pretty fast. On my receipt, my order was placed at 9:33 PM. Initially, Yelp estimated my delivery time to be between 10:12 - 10:32. As of this point in my typing of this review, it is 10:11. When my order was received and confirmed to be in the works, the delivery time changed from 10:05 - 10:25. It actually took less time than that for my food to arrive! How do I know this, you might ask? At 9:56, I had decided to head downstairs from my apartment to check on my order and wait for the delivery driver. Little did I know, it had already arrived! So far, off to a great start! When I got back up to begin my dinner, I took photos first just to have something for my review tonight. I will say that the prices are actually very reasonable, but if you really want to save money, go to the restaurant and pick up the order yourself. I tipped $6.55, so my total for the delivery was $28.88. On my receipt, the total for the order itself was $16.63. If I do order from them again, I will make sure I go at a time that is not so close to closing. Onto the food. For the $16.63, it's not a bad deal. I got the cheesesteak combo, and I will say that the cheesesteak was definitely a decent sandwich. The meat by itself was seasoned well and was flavorful. When I bit into the sandwich, the cheese and mayo were the tastes that prevailed tonight. I do definitely prefer the cheesesteaks I have cooked up on my own, but this does hold its own. If I had been the one coming up with this on the menu though, I would definitely have this only have the cheese, the steak, and the onions. But still, I will say for its price you can do far worse. As for the fries, they were okay. They weren't very crispy, but you can definitely taste some pepper with this one. That pepper seasoning kept these from being bland. The food overall would be anywhere from a 3 to a 3 and a half. That 4th star I am going to award is because of how fast I got my food delivered as well as the reasonable pricing.

We wanted to try…read moresomething different and at the beginning by only looking at the pictures I was not so Convinced but my husband said we are already here so lets give it a shot. Unfamiliar with the menu and the kiosk mechanics we pressed buttons and made the best of it and the outcome was delicious. We are spicy food lovers but not familiar with the food here we didn't know what to expect. We chose MEDIUM spice just in case. We got the Daves trio, loaded burrito and a sandwich. All of it very tasty and juicy. Shout out to Felix our happy server, he was so nice to everyone and treated the kids with kindness. The restaurant itself is big and so colorful, nice atmosphere.

    First time ever hearing about Dave's Hot Chicken. We happened to be in the area and someone in our…read moregroup raved about it. Got the #2. Comes with 2 chicken sandwiches and fries. Chicken was huge and super crispy. Fries are crinkle cut dusted with seasoning. Found that the fry amount was a bit smaller in portion size compared to the chicken. I mean maybe it's the actually serving size but let's be real. Fries are also a main course. So we ordered a large box of fries. The three of us (who didn't eat the #2 meal) killed the fries quickly. Mixed 2 packets of the Dave's sauce (it's like equivalent to 5 ketchup packets) with 2 ketchup packets . Mmm perfect. Saw a lot of Muslim patrons here. I was curious and looked it up. The chicken at Dave's is halal. KFC and chic fil a aren't. Looking at you KFC and chic fil a. More patrons would come to eat at your establishments if you served halal foods. Clearly from my ONE time eating at Dave's I could see that Muslim people like fried chicken too. DUH! Good job Dave's. I mean it didn't affect me in any way but it made me feel good that Dave's did something right. Will definitely be coming to Dave's Hot Chicken again!
