We got a free order of fries and let me tell you, they could open up a fries place on their own. The fries are like curled potatoe wedges but at the same time taste like chips. I can't explain it. They were so delicious I finished the fries first. I highly recommend them. The customer service is always A+.

During my recent trip to Michigan, I discovered that the Detroit Metro area has the largest…read moreconcentration of Arabic speakers with 4.7% of population aged 5 to adult primarily speaking Arabic at home (https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/05/18/5-facts-about-arabic-speakers-in-the-us/#:~:text=The%20Detroit%20metro%20area%20also,1.0%25%20of%20the%20total%20population.). As such, there was a plethora of excellent restaurants to select from offering Middle Eastern cuisine, one of the best of which was Asya. As is my penchant, when visiting a new city I pop open my trusty Yelp app for places to try and Asya was one of the first recommendations; it doesn't hurt that some of the locals also said they serve up tasty food. Located in a strip mall off the intersection of a busy road, the parking lot is tight, so if there are no spots directly in front of the restaurants, there is more availability off to the side. I stopped by a few times while I was in town, and Asya does a brisk take-out business, especially during the predictable lunch and dinner hours. I dined in both times, so I could enjoy my meal hot and "fresh from the kitchen." The interior is fairly nondescript with tile flooring, black tables/chair combos, and a neutral color palate. But because the dining room is "cozy," it can definitely get loud with just a few tables of hungry diners. The service and hospitality are superior, as to be expected from a family run establishment. I was always greeted with a warm smile and even after just a few visits, the staff seemed to recognize me. I really like the fact that for most of their entrees, you can order either a lunch or dinner portion. The shish kafta was an AMAZING deal at $12.99 at lunch. In addition to the main dish, it is served with either a salad or soup. I opted for the lentil soup, and it was tasty. Soft lentils were stewed in a creamy base and served with a bowl of individually wrapped pita slices. Honestly, I was already getting a bit full after just the soup course. Then the generous portion of the shish kafta arrived and I could only finish 1/2 of the plate, before taking the remaining portion home for dinner. The skewered meat patties were nicely seasoned with grated yellow onion, garlic, parsley, finely chopped mint, salt/black pepper, Sumac, cinnamon, as well as other spices. They were grilled just enough to have a nice char on the exterior, yet still remain moist. Instead of French Fries, I opted to have the yellow rice which was perfect for making mini-sandwiches with the leftover pita slices from my soup. To finish the meal, I had a few pieces of the house made baklava, which was flaky and not too sweet; perfect with my afternoon coffee. On another occasion, I also got the chicken shawarma, which again, was a bargain at $6.50 (before tax) and super filling with a side of fries. There are also many good Middle Eastern restaurants in the DC area, but not the variety of "mom and pop" places like Asya and definitely not at their price point and value.

The chicken shawarma was probably the savoriest I've had. It was deep in flavor with onions and warm spices. Different from any that I've had in the past. I enjoyed its unique taste. This was my first visit. It's a carry out restaurant that stayed busy the entire time I was there. I grabbed a menu, and it's full of favorites such as beef or chicken kafta, falafel, beef and chicken tikka, catfish, grape leaves, fattoush, chicken Greek salad and lots of other items. You can order party trays as well. Price point is amazingly low. It's definitely a goodie and worthy of a return visit or four.

The menu price is $11.95 but there was a minor upcharge using a delivery app. The food took FOREVER but I believe it was the fault of the driver. The salad was tasty and they were super generous with the amount of chicken. I was starving by the time it was delivered and I still couldn't come close to finishing it. I also ordered a side of toum for about $1 and it was a tasty addition. I wish they gave a bit of pita with the salad but it's so cheap that I can't blame them for not including it. The salad was fresh and the chicken was tender and cooked well. Dressing was a little underwhelming but it was still yummy despite it. Overall would absolutely order again! Highly recommend for a good, reasonably healthy lunch.

Shredded just right with smoky spices, the shawarma paired perfectly with the crispy, lemony fried chicken. Sides included fresh fattoush salad with tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions in lemon-olive dressing; a cucumber-tomato mix; and a beet-chickpea salad. Pickled turnips and onions added nice crunch (on the side). It fed our five with leftovers, ready in about 25 minutes for pickup. Easy subs, veggie options, and great value (entrees $16-23). Pro tip: Try their ranch dressing for a creamy kick. Interior is very simple and clean. Yummy Shawarma gets 5 stars. Oak Park's top spot for Mediterranean shares!
