The lamp shank was fall off the bone tender and juicy. The flatbread was freshly made and was so soft with a good chew. It was definitely made from scratch or at least tasted like it. The shawarma was SO tender and flavorful. The hummus and baba ganoush were also excellent. Even the French fries were so good!! The owners were so hospitable and made us feel like we were in their home kitchen. You can tell they take their food seriously and cook with love! Oh yeah and the Iraqi tea! It was so good with fresh cardamom and was served in this beautiful brass and glass tea set. Rehana will definitely be my go to Mediterranean spot.

That said the food was pretty quick, cooked fresh, and came out steaming. You can see it in the picture. Owner was friendly, it was nice talking with him. I will be back to try more food! I dropped it one star (from a 4.8) because as others mentioned, the cleanliness of the floor. The tables, seats, and all that were fine but it was clear the floors need some attention. Not "tacky" as others mentioned but the corners need a good deep clean. I only noticed because I dropped silverware while dumping my plate so got a closer look when I picked it up. To be fair it was only next to the trash can. Otherwise nothing stood out as anything of concern.

The mixed plate I got had chicken and beef and the chicken by far was the best grilled chicken I've ever eaten! The sauce complimented it well and the rice was immaculate!

The food is fresh and delicious but it took quite some time.... Maybe I was in a hurry but I think I waited around 10-12 minutes (which is totally fine) but I was on lunch and felt kinda rushed so I would advise calling ahead if you're shorter on time. I can't wait to come back and hopefully get pics but I got the Chicken Shawarma Wrap and it was delicious. I made it a meal with fries and a drink and the fries are sooo good!!! I have been telling everyone about this place.

I've been to Karam Lebanese Deli & Catering many times, usually for take out. A couple times I…read morepicked up catering orders. They are super helpful on the catering orders! Today, my sister and I went to the art store around the corner. After we finished shopping, she mentioned she was hungry. I told her Karam's is around the corner. It was the first time I dined in. What I liked is that you order and pay at the counter. My sister and I ordered and paid separately. I knew what I wanted and the guy at the counter pointed out that they had exactly what I wanted. I wanted falafel over salad with tahini sauce. There was also a lemon dressing. It was vegan and gluten free. The falafels were huge and tasty..some of the best falafels I've had! My sister got a beet salad, lentil soup and coffee. She liked everything she got. I took a taste of her lentil soup, it was good. She took a taste of my falafel. She liked it so much that she got an order of just falafels to go! Most of the chairs in the restaurant were hard wood or metal. I found a couple that were padded. I require padded chairs in my old age..so appreciate that was available! Definitely will be back!

The only seating available was the bar but hey that's fine with me. If you're a party expect a bit of a wait, didn't look too bad. Ordered their lamb gyro, fries, 8oz beer on the side. The lamb was great, marinated nicely and grilled to perfection. Tzatziki was delicious and complemented the gyro nicely. Tasty and relatively fast (I was in and out in 30 minutes, and it was pretty busy). Fries were limp...single fried, meh. May have been sitting around a bit; unimpressive. In all, great little place to swing through and only a couple minutes off 217/26. Lots of other good stuff on the menu to try next time I'm back.

From a true gyro connoisseur, this is an Ok gyro. It's not bad, but also not great. The ratio of…read moremeat to veg is off (way too much lettuce). It also has very thin gyro meat you can see in the photos that are like slices you can buy at the store vs the thick electric serrated knife cut chunks I prefer. The thicker meat gives more flavor of the herbs when you bite in, but this has way Too much veg. The bread should also be toasted or grilled. It was soft so likely warmed. I will try the other gyro cart next time. If you want the best gyro in Portland (though their hours are horrible) make the effort to go to Cedos on MLK. It will change your life. Would I order a gyro here again? Probably not, whip is why I gave it two stars. I figure other items here are likely better. And the improvements would be pretty simple. Nice service. Great ambiance when the weather is nice outside.

The big issue is ordering. I've tried ordering online here from both DoorDash and Joyous, and my last 3 or 4 orders never went through. It said it was sent to Aybla, but that's it. Nothing. As if the workers are just ignoring the orders or something. I'm glad this place is apparently so popular that they can just refuse customers like this!
