    Everything is an extra cost, so disappointed, Not fresh vegetables, stale rice. Poor quality beef

    skimped out on the rice, food wasn't fresh and rice wqs super stale and hard, a fly was flying

    Stale rice small amount bad taste not fresh poor service won't go back again horrible experience

    Chicken shawarma, chips and lemonade from The Pita Kitchen

    Love the chicken shawarma and if you have room for more, make sure to get the chips and lemonade. Best food at Las Americas.

    Kinda expensive for a food court, but the food tastes great and you can add toppings and sauces on top.

Everything comes to share and for two people this was enough food for both to feel satisfied. The Beef Koobideh, the Chicken Joojeh and the Chicken Shawarma. The drinks ordered were the Madja and the Azizam. The Madja was refreshing and the Azizam was on the sweeter side and closer to a punch. The roses were a really nice touch. Celebrating an anniversary they gave us a gorgeous ice cream desert with a heart shaped a macaroon. Not only was it super cutie pink but they printed our names and wished us a happy anniversary on it. I couldn't have imagined it any better. Would definitely come back.

Although the restaurant is small, it has incredible artistic charm and character that makes it truly stand out. The more you look around, the more you discover. As for the food, I enjoyed some of it! Especially the Tuna Tabbouleh! SO YUM! I highly reccomend the Salmon Skewer if you're into salmon. I would ditch the Koobideh since it was utterly salty and dry. Knafeh Sundae had a piece of plastic I found in the gelato. I don't know what it was, but it was not a nice surprise LOL.... (I should of told management but service was lacking) Service was alright here. Could be better if the employees cared for guest satisfaction.

The restaurant is clean- bathroom is clean. Staff is very friendly and smiling all the time. We were group of 15 and they got the food out in time. The owner was very very friendly and made me the best beef shawerma ever. I would recommend this place. And I am definitely coming back. Thank you everyone for everything. God bless you all.

    I saw Al Awael on Yelp and the food looked so good. I wanted to check this place out. My party came…read moreto Al Awael later in the evening, after the Iftar rush. As a result, the restaurant was not crowded, but they were out of several menu items. The restaurant is spacious and very color coordinated. The armrests on the chairs are at a slightly odd height for me but very aesthetic. This restaurant is family-run by a father and son duo. The father was cooking while his son was on the front end of things. The service was super friendly and I really appreciated that he explained the menu thoroughly to us. They were out of beef kabob and chicken shawarma (my go-to). I opted for the liver plate with fries, and also tried a bite of beef shawarma. We were also served a complimentary lentil soup as an appetizer. The soup was DELICIOUS. Soft and warm and comforting, with vermicelli bits in it. It was incredibly flavorful and soothing, something I would crave on cold days, sick days, any days really. I will definitely be finding recipes and attempting to make this myself. Middle Eastern places always have the most delicious, freshly fried fries, 10/10 no notes especially with ketchup (sue me, I'm basic XD). My grilled liver hit the spot. I think my one critique would be that because the pieces were quite large, some parts were quite tough. The roast onions and tomatoes had a good smoky char, and the portions were generous. After I polished off my first cube, the son swung by and set a grilled jalapeño down in front of me, saying that his father recommended parting it with the liver. It's personal touches like this that make me really love a local, family owned place! And his father was definitely right about the jalapeño. That and the pickled cabbage were the perfect complement for the rich, earthy liver. Prices were fair and portions were huge. The service was standout here as well. I would LOVE to come back and try their lamb dishes, and I definitely anticipate updating to a 5 star review then.

Two phone calls & having it suggested that we present ourselves & register, then expect a wait. My choice was one of the Argentinean restaurant on Blvd Ag Caliente, wife wanted to dine at a a place in Plaza Chapultepec. We left our names @ the Chapu resaurant and were told a table may be available in approx 40+ min, or longer. Wife suggested we walk up Ave Sonora & we strolled over to the Argentine restaurant in that direction. Wife asked if we wanted a drink. We made our way to Word Bar, which was empty. After a frisk & bag review, complete w/ a punk, tough-guy stairdown we were in & out of est. & left. Crossed the street to a 2nd, empty bar. There I asked for a Glenfiddich neat w/ bartender. He tells me to ask the waiter/security/doorman. Given copies of a plain, no-frills menu while I waited, I asked for a Scotch only to be told food needed to be ordered! Really?? We were looking for a special Valentine's meal & were being insisted to order food @ an empty, no-anything special bar?? Again we declined, walked away. Walked to the back of the lot to the restaurant Tabule, thinking only of reviewing a menu & returning to see about our standby status. At Tabule hostess shared that everything was booked & no tables were available; led into the lower branch which had approx 10 tables w/ partners or small groups of diners as the young lady went for the scan page for us to input & review the menu. Menu was intriguing, seemed even to have great possibilities. As we walked out, I said to the young lady that there seemed to be room in the dining room. She said again, all tables were reserved but that she could ask. A few min later the hostess returned and shared there was 1 table available on the 2nd floor. We enter the 2nd fl & there is a- six peeps table, 3 couples @ tables, & 5 or 6 empty tables! Really?? In Tabule, food was delicious, sufficient ++, relaxed & timed service were all impeccable. Patrons are guided through a mostly ala carte menu (until the meat dish) ranging fr appetizers, salads, pastas to the meats/ seafood/ fowl. Pictures of plates & portions are below. Dishes of note: both appetizers-- bbq baby back ribs & mango & in special chef's chile/bar-b-que sauce (salsa) & the grilled on oak shrimp & baby octopus in butter... ummm!! Next we shared a cesar salad, which was creamy but overly salted. The wife ordered grilled marinated, salmon w/ fresh, handmade pasta & I had baked raviolli stuffed w/ veal & portabello. Both dishes had excellent & subtle seasonings w/ portions large enough for us to bring home leftovers, along w/ two ribs. We were asked about ordering dessert & took the challenge, sharing the date/ nut tart w/ chocolate sauce bathed in ice cream!! It had an absolutely delicate & mild flavorings, along with the mild sweetness of the ice cream. Our pre-Valentine's Day dinner had great, fresh, & tasty flavors/ subtle spiciness and portions were fantastic! Add to this the pleasant setting w/ moderated popular music & our server Hector who had a professional, knowledgeable & great/ funny/ playful disposition & we left totally content & satisfied. We'd had a delightful & special dinner. Another blessing was that for our meal that included a large glass of wine, a Glenlivet scotch, neat, a beer, water & tip and still only totaled under $110. Recommendations: none for menu, but do consider making advance reservations.

It's expensive if you compare it to the surrounding restaurants, but it's worth it. Food is delicious and service is amazing. The environment is appropriate for a number of things, dates, girls night out, family reunions, birthdays, etc. My favorite thing to get here is some form of sushi roll. The portions are usually generous and I've never been disappointed with anything. They also have a lot of delicious signature drinks which I've had a time or two. The only downer of this otherwise wonderful place, is the parking. I would recommend you try and find something on the street, BUT if you're coming here on a weekend night, then just use the valet parking, trust me you'll save a lot of time by doing this.

I don't know what happened to this place, but the last 2 times I've ordered food from them I noticed a dramatical change in their standards. The Alamanara salad is not what it used to be. Now, it is basically 95 % green lettuce and a scarce amount of tomatoes and cucumbers, a very tiny portion of Feta cheese and one thin slice of a black olive. All this with almost undectable amount of dressing. I've talked to the manager the first time and it was fixed. But the second time was to go so I sent them a message through facebook. 1.5 hours later I received a call from the owner asking me to tell the cashier next time I order food from them. I am sorry there will be no next time. They lost a customer. It used to be a good place. I do not recommend it now. You pay way to much for the food quality and portions. It is not worth it. There is a ton of other good places in the same area with same prices and higher standards.
