    Chicken Shawarma
    Mike O.

    immediate Homie. Hamza is a G!!! Gives me chicken samples, mango juice, and starts telling me jokes. How could I not get food here? To clear the air right away. Perfection, the chicken is incredible. I would do fewer veggies next time and extra meat. Sever was a 10, and the food hall is fun and a solid place to bring a group.

    Yet another restaurant that left me questioning the social media hype. While the food wasn't terrible, I've definitely had better Mediterranean options right here in Columbus. The presentation was great, the plate looked delicious but unfortunately, the flavor didn't match the visuals. I ordered the shrimp ($21) and added grilled chicken ($5). The shrimp lacked any distinct flavor and leaned way too salty for my taste. As for the chicken, it was just a diced breast. I personally prefer the more traditional kabob or skewer-style Mediterranean chicken. Now, the garlic sauce? That was the standout. Creamy, flavorful, and clearly homemade; it truly saved the meal. I could honestly drink it.

    Honestly it's a bit on the pricey end but most places at budd's dairy are like that. The zaki loaded fries are good and really crispy, didn't get soggy at all. But the chicken shawarma is so-so. It's basically served exactly like a gyro except not wrapped, which was kind of disappointing. But the sauce and chicken is really good so I enjoyed the shawarma still.

    FLAVOR! That's the first thing that comes to my mind when I think about this restaurant. I ordered the combo Zaki Chicken bowl with lamb chops and it was jampacked with flavor. I found myself slowing down with each mouthful, just to savor the incredible taste. From the first bite to the last, the flavors were perfectly balanced, leaving me wanting more. Excellent food and great service!Go check it out--you won't regret it!

    Had the chicken shawarma at Zaki Grill and it was incredible--juicy, well-seasoned, and full of flavor. Fresh wrap, great sauce, and quick, friendly service. I'll be back for sure.

    Gyro the Hero + Fries

    I've had Zaki twice. Once from their food truck, and most recently from their location inside Budd Dairy Food Hall. Their menu has the basics -- bowls or sandwiches, as well as some appetizers. I tried "Gyro the Hero," their take on the traditional gyro. It comes with lamb & beef, lettuce, cucumber, onion, tomato, banana pepper and tzatziki sauce. The wrap wasn't what I think of as a traditional pita, instead it was much thinner, almost like a tortilla. The gyro was pretty good, but extremely greasy which made it quite messy. I also got a side of fries ($5), and they were pretty disappointing -- very bland and a small portion for the price. Overall, I think 3 stars fits the bill for Zaki.

    The food was definitely worth it. The chicken and rice with that creamy sauce is pretty delicious I can't wait to go back and try something else

    Gyro

    Solid Gyro in Budds Food Hall. I got the Gyro the Hero and Everything on it tasted fresh, well thought out, put together well. Could've used slightly a little more meat for $12 plus but it was good and solid.

    Had the opportunity to try this food truck when it stopped near my workplace. I placed an order online and was able to pick it up fairly quickly. I ordered the Zaki fries and a Gyro. Both were delicious. the fries were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. the feta cheese and tzatziki atop made the flavors pop! The gyro was stuffed with meat that was tender and juicy. I like it so well I went back and got a salad to take home for dinner.

    Wow these fries were to die for. They're dressed with garlic sauce, feta, and banana peppers and seasoned with some fresh spices. Only came here for a quick bite so I didn't order anything else, but I'm excited to try this again so I can order some entrees.

    Chicken bowl. Huge portion!

    This is my third year in a row coming to Mazah Mediterranean Eatery for 614 Restaurant Week, and…read morethey hands down have the best deals--honestly, even beyond restaurant week. Every time, they serve the most beautiful, FULL plates of food with some of the best-tasting Mediterranean dishes I've ever had. As a vegan, it can be tough to find restaurants that are truly accommodating, but Mazah makes it effortless. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and takes such great care of you, no matter your dietary restrictions. They are genuinely the kindest and most helpful staff I've ever experienced at any local restaurant in Columbus. Being family-run, dining here truly feels like you're part of their family. You can tell how much pride and care they put into ensuring every guest has an amazing experience. I truly couldn't recommend Mazah more to everyone--this place is an absolute gem!

I was in a time crunch and got takeout, and it traveled perfectly back home! The vibes there when picking it up looked awesome, I'll definitely need to go back for an in person dining experience! I'm a big fan of shish tawook & Mazah's is delicious! I love the chargrilled and garlicky flavors; and the tumeric rice goes nicely with it. The shawarma is also packed with flavor and getting some pita and hummus is a go to call! The baklava is a perfect sweet treat to end the meal!

During this time, the table next to us were receiving their appetizers. The waiter walked away not noticing us. By this time, our bread was gone and no wait staff had approached us to ask for drink order or food order. Another table next to us seated more customers. As the waiter came back to the first table to check on them, he then walked past us to wait on the new table. At least 15 minutes had passed since we walked in. We decided to approach the manager who was also waiting on tables. He assigned someone to us who was not the waiter on both sides of us. The waitress apologized that she was unaware of serving us and we began our requests. Though this situation was very uncomfortable for us, and was offered no compensation, it did end nicely. The food is delicious. What is most disturbing to us is this is our second visit to this restaurant and the same thing happened before. We had no wait staff come to us for our order! The exact same manager had to be flagged down and told we had no wait staff. He ended up taking our order. I have never seen anything like it.
