"Starting with the Fattoush, I was pleasantly surprised to find the fried pita chips on top when I transferred the salad from the styrofoam container to my plate. They had been thoughtfully placed at the bottom, which was a nice touch! It was delicious, albeit a unique take on Fattoush. The salad had sliced onions that seemed to be seasoned like those in a Greek salad, likely influenced by the red wine vinaigrette Greek dressing. Traditional flavors such as mint or lemon were noticeably absent. While it was tasty, I wouldn’t necessarily call it Fattoush. However, I'm no expert, so you can decide that for yourself! I learned how to make Greek dressing from Greeks, though! As for the sandwich, even after confirming that everything is made in-house, I was disappointed when they couldn’t substitute the chicken for beef in the shawarma sandwich. I found that quite puzzling. The staff mentioned that the sandwich came with garlic sauce and tahini, but it was a little on the dry side. Thankfully, there was extra Greek dressing on my plate that I could use to moisten it. The pickles were present but not very prominent. I don’t have a lot of sandwich comparisons to draw from, but I was hoping for the refreshing contrast of garlic sauce with a tangy pickle alongside the spiced meat—something that was a bit lacking. On a positive note, the energy in the restaurant was great. The staff seemed genuinely invested in their work, with no one standing around staring at their phones, which was refreshing. I appreciate that level of dedication. In summary, I will definitely return, but perhaps not for what I ordered this time. I might explore other options instead."

The best Arabic food in town! We visited at 3:00 AM and tried their delicious kebabs, which were incredibly fresh and healthy. I highly recommend this place!
Bradley
Middle Eastern Appetite is fantastic and definitely worth a visit. I walked in with a huge appetite and left satisfied, with plenty of leftovers to take home. The falafel could be the best I've ever tasted!
Courtney
I’m almost eight months pregnant and have been craving falafel, but sadly, they were sold out. My husband and I drove nearly an hour just to try this restaurant, and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious—especially the rice, which was incredible. It's such a charming little place! View menu

Everything about this restaurant is incredible! The staff was friendly and easy to talk to, and the food is absolutely delicious! I always go for the lamb mendi because it literally melts in your mouth, but every other dish I've tried is fantastic too. You definitely need to check this place out!
Tarin
The food at this restaurant is fantastic—so delicious! I've tried several of their dishes and couldn't find anything to complain about; they were all outstanding. The fried chicken is exceptional—it's honestly the best I've ever had, even better than any other restaurant. I highly recommend this place. Thank you!

ZA BEST IN ZA WEST (Michigan) is the only place in the area that can compete with the fantastic Shawarma King on Drake Rd, and it offers some extra treats too! I’m typically a fan of the Chicken Shawarma with Feta, but adding the Saj Bread and Fresh Fries (a shout out to the Belgians) takes it to a whole new level. Absolutely delicious! View menu
Sam
Treat yourself to a visit to this charming restaurant located in the southwest region of Michigan. The service is exceptional, and the staff genuinely cares about your dining experience. The food is simply incredible—everything we tried was so delicious it practically melted in our mouths. Without a doubt, it was the best and most affordable meal we enjoyed during our time in Kalamazoo. I highly recommend it!
Ahlam
The entire menu is halal, and they don’t serve alcohol, which makes this place a great choice. However, the portion sizes don’t match the prices. The flavors of the shawarma and kofta are somewhat average. Additionally, the menu descriptions aren't very clear, so it’s hard to know what to expect on your plate until it arrives. Even though we dined in, our food was served in takeaway boxes, which I don’t particularly like. On a positive note, the staff were friendly and welcoming, and the restroom was clean and in decent condition. **Dietary restrictions:** The entire menu is halal.
