"I'm so excited that after a long hiatus, my FAVORITE mediterranean restaurant is back open!!! Omg, to be able to taste this well seasoned food again! My tastebuds are dancing! The Whole Boneless Chicken all dark meat topped with mushrooms is moist, tender, and char-grilled perfectly. My side tabouli was fresh and flavorful but had too many onions and not enough cracked wheat. My 2nd side choice was the rice of course, that has vermicelli and almonds so delicious!😋 I love the grilled veggies they add for plating purposes. This meal can easily feed 3 people! You won't be disappointed."
"I usually grab my Shawarma (Chicken) SND after work. It's always very well prepared and wrapped. The place is immaculately clean. The workers very kind and friendly. Will highly recommend this location to anyone who wants to eat a well prepared middle eastern dish."

"Eggroll (5 pcs) were amazing ! I got the chicken flavors, my friends thought they were a bit spicy...But I loved the spice and flavor. A great late night snack ! I would order again. They were also really big! Worth the price for the portion. "
"The T-Bone Steak Dinner is always on point. The steak is perfectly sliced, not too thick or too thin, and still a great portion size. The seasoning is always amazing, and the food tastes fresh every time. I’m hooked! The waffle fries are delicious too, especially with BBQ sauce. I’ve ordered this so many times, and I’ll definitely order it again. The portions are great, the flavor is consistent, and you can tell they put care into the food. Highly recommend!"

"Food was delivered fast and still hot. *Jollof rice is extremely spicy🥵 compared to Thai hot *Boneless chicken is seasoned well, smoky, and flavorful. The mustard sauce is drizzled on top not fully coating the chicken like I assumed. Still tasty *Truffle oil greens for $1 upcharge the portion is very small, maybe the amount of a 2oz souffle cup if that. I can't identify the deep colored vegetable in the greens or the white garnish on top. Overall a good tasting savory plate but the portion size for $23 is skimpy its more rice than anything... thank goodness for a promo code!"
"Love yaw but what happened to the portions???? My chicken barely has meat and its the same size as the mini waffle! And i get that i got a small rasta pasta but its soo tiny for $12 and is still bigger than the Suya Fried Chicken & Waffles for $18.50 The food was good as always but this the second time so im guess its a change"

"Had a streak of being out of coffee and too busy to get to the store, and so glad I chose to try Kitab. I got them three mornings in a row. Americano is bold flavor, oat milk lattes are solid too. Bacon, Egg & Cheese, Caprese, and Gallagher sandwiches all great as well. Recommend the caprese on croissant if they have it available. A+ Cheers! TASTES GOOD. FRESH. Would order again and have done so three times in a row. Is this enough doordash? Can I post my review now???"
"I had a great experience at Kitab Coffee. The atmosphere is cozy and unique, perfect for relaxing with a cup of coffee. Everything tasted fresh and well made, and the portions were satisfying for the price. The service was friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. I’ll definitely be coming back again. They also have a cute book corner, which makes it all so nice & relaxing."

"Delicious food! Giant portion of the egusi and fufu in the vegan Egusi and Fufu Meal for the price. I would definitely order it again. It was fresh and well flavored. I would love if there was a plastic free packaging option since the food is hot, but that's nothing different than most restaurants. Other than that, everything was perfect!"
"For this to have been $44, the Ox tail should've been in a separate container since it took up majority of the space with the Okra meal in the container. The taste was great. Very surprised my 7yr old said that he could eat it everyday and I'd have to agree. First time trying Nigerian food for us so I would have to suggest it for anyone else wanting to try it. The price and portion is unbelievable. I probably wouldn't buy again off this fact. The ox tail were a bit tough, I should've used my Ebt and waited for the morning to have my mom make them (falling off the bone unlike these ) for $44. The ox tails were also about half of the ones in the store as far as length. In my second picture, you can see where I picked the ox tails up from therefore this couldn't have been $20 worth in my opinion but I'll have to to check the prices on the ingredients."

"The Steak Bites were delicious and tender, and the potatoes were amazing."
"This meal was amazing. The lamb chops were perfectly cooked and laid in a bed of juices and reduction. The squash zucchini veg medley was seasoned well and fluffy. I didn't care for the mashed potatoes. I'm sure they were instant but who cares? This meal was delicious. Also, meatballs were amazing. Marina was delish and they were tender to each bite. Macaroni and cheese was seasoned and corkscrew. Overall, this place will get my business again. "

"This is my 2nd time ordering and this time I tried their FR4. Garlic Fried Rice (3PO) and the A3. Vegetable Spring Roll (3 pcs) (3PO). I got the medium level spice and was very happy with the flavor and spice. The spring rolls were a bit smaller than I waa hoping for but they were very delicious and beautifully crisped. I have noticed each time I've showed up at the estimated pick up time that they needed probably no more than 5 extra minutes to pack up my order..which is fine because the food was nice and hot still by the time I made it home. I will definitely be coming back to try more of the menu."
"Love their food. Almost finished half of it in 5 minutes but I wish I could choose the spice level for some dishes like other restaurants. But overall it's really good. Also very affordable, serves good portion. Fresh. And definitely would order again."
