"the Foul Moudamas highly recommend! tangy and super delicious!! it come with two pita breads and a side of pickles.
The Cheese Bread excellent as always.
What really stands out about their baked goods is the dough-it stays soft and fresh even if you leave it for a long time."
"This is the real deal. This is kibbeh like my daddy used to make at home. .No other place in Houston does it like this. It's authentic. Brings back some happy childhood memories from long ago. The owners are so nice. They were out of the frozen half pan that I was trying to order, and they called me to tell me that they had 3 triangles left in the freezer, so we changed my order so I could get my Kibbeh! So delicious. The triangles are huge too. Our family immigrated 4 generation ago and we really appreciate having a place where we can introduce our children & grandchildren to real middle eastern cuisine. Thank you SAMMY'S!"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ABSOLUTELY AMAZING — HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Everything is always fresh, flavorful, and the portions are very generous! I’ve ordered through DoorDash multiple times, and I also love coming in person. The quality is consistently excellent either way.
Everyone here is so welcoming, kind, and friendly. They truly go above and beyond to provide great food and outstanding customer service, which makes you want to keep coming back!
Their Signature Chicken Shawarma is AMAZING — easily one of my favorites! The chicken, beef, and everything else I’ve tried has been full of flavor, fresh, and delicious.
I can genuinely say this is some of the BEST shawarma and Middle Eastern food I’ve had in Texas! Whether you’re ordering delivery or stopping by in person, I highly recommend giving them a try.
Definitely one of those places you order from once… and then keep ordering again and again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
"Meat Kabab Sandwich | كباب لحم Definitely a hidden gem on the menu! The restaurant is known for its chicken and this was my first time even thinking of ordering the beef, I was honestly hesitant… but wow!!!!
The bread had the yumm unique tangy flavor from the sumac on the outside, the meat was super clean and perfectly cooked, the mix inside was beyond perfection. Highly recommend and I would say one is not enough!!! was SO GOOD!
The Pink Sauce was kind of tangy not garlicky and it went really well with the sandwich."

"Gyro Sandwich Sandwich wasone of the best I've had, pita was perfect, gyro meat flavor and texture was excellent. Baklava was amazing. Dolma (6) was the most expensive and worst I've ever eaten; soggy and flavorless, I threw away 5 of them. Come for the gyro, but leave the dolma."
"Flavor-wise, this place delivers. Everything was well-seasoned and genuinely deliciousno complaints there at all. The only downside, especially for the price point ($26–$27), was the portion size. The beef came as very small tenderloin pieces, and there were about four shrimp total. A bit more beef would have made the value feel more balanced. That said, the flavors were on point and clearly well-executed it’s really just the portion-to-price ratio that gave me pause."

"LAVA PASTA does not come with shrimp like the description says, apparently since i received none... but the flavor of just the pasta is amazing, but very spicy, which i dont mind, but some may. the Greek Salad was put into the same bag as the pasta, so it was a bit wilted by the time it arrived. the dressing is basically just oil and vinegar and they added cilantro to the salad, which i thought was an odd choice, but it was ok. Pasta bread was good and very nice price. the Tiramisu Cake had berries and chocolate syrup which strays from tradition, but the cake itself was actually very very good. all in all, it was a quite delectable meal that i would order again, although i would add shrimp to the pasta next time."

"First time trying this place. The samosas are large and so tasty. The only thing is that I have to put it back in the oven to toast them up because they got soft on their way here. Otherwise, excellent.
The lamb shank is tender, rice pilaf is done beautifully just heavy handed with the raisins. With the cucumber salad on the side, I got naan to go along with it. They didn't send the green sauce, which I would have liked to overall give the milk it's completeness. The lamb is very tender the bone falls right off."
"Approved By a true Afghani!
My 100% Afghani partner who came to the states from Afghanistan back in 2022 was at a truck stop resting in between trips and he was in the mood for Real Authentic Afghanistan food just like home.
The Kabuli pulao was excellent, he said the meat was fresh. This satisfied him and was authentic and approved.
(If you're new to Afghani food, your first try should always be the Kabuli Pulao, as that is Afghanistans national dish!)
The Naan was also perfect, he said it was "really good naan" - another approval!
Now he didn't order anything else, so we don't know how the rest of the food tastes, but if they got the Kabuli Pulao right then it deserves a 5 star rating !
The food came with salat (fresh veggies) on the side to crunch on between bites which gives to refreshness .
Portion was standard for Kabuli Pulao which is A Lot in my opinion. 2 people could share one portion if they wanted to.
Overall great place!"

"This was my first time trying this place. The food was great. The Chicken Kabob (Shish Tawook) - $12 was juicy, the rice was full of flavor, the pita bread was soft and fluffy and the hummus and salad made a great addition to top it off."

"Combo plate is excellent the meat is very tender and the flavor is very good . The portions are very generous and the packaging is very nice your different items are all separate and nothing gets mixed together"
"If you’re planning to order these 2 dishes and have anything scheduled afterward, make sure you leave at least 2–3-4 hours free. Seriously!
The liver and shakshuka are beyond delicious!!! It’s impossible to stop eating you get really full but keep telling yourself, “just one more bite,” and then another... until you become over stuffed reaching a point all what you can do is lie down, close your eyes and have a big smile hhhh! They’re on a whole different level yumminess!
The foul also was good, and the hummus was tasty too, but I didn’t really enjoy the meat topping it had a meaty oily smell that wasn’t for me.
But once again, the stars of the meal were the Kibda (Liver) and the Shakshooka Scramble I’ve had them many times at the restaurant and I didn’t expect them to arrive this good as delivery -considering we don’t live close. But they were just as perfect as eating them at the restaurant & even better as this time I could go straight to the only thing you truly need after a meal like this,, lying down and fully embracing the food coma :)!!
**I didn’t get a chance to take any photos I was too busy eating and I’m writing this review after a three hour recovery period… literallyyyy
Thank God for such a delicious meal, and a big thank you to the kitchen team!"

"Excellent. I had the "R2 Specialty" and was pleased with the large amount of food here. Coupled with the flat Bread with hummus to dip it in, I couldn't finish it all. The R2 has "a skewer of ground beef and skewer of chicken, grilled tomato, bell pepper, onion and imported basmati rice mixed with cranberry topped with saffron and hummus." So good!"
"Reza saves the day again. I am obsessed with the Gheymeh Bademjan and Ghormeh Sabzi. I never order the combo because I like to have leftovers. The lentil and chicken soup were incredible to nurture me back from sickness, and the Mint Lemonade was really refreshing."

"BEST SPOT EVER! Shawarma arabi is a taste bud masterpiece ! That said it's very hard to find a shawarma that doesn't cause my meat aversions to kick in due to gritty fatty pieces that can be found in majority of wraps from your local Mediterranean place. But SHAWARMA LAND? 10/10 the meat is crispy yet succulant, the aromatics of the seasoning shows through every bite you take. The French fries? Perfectly seasoned. My new go to place 100000/10"

"Trying new restaurants scares me; especially when ordering out. However, this was the BEST restaurant pasta I've ever had. Although the restaurant was closing in less than an hour, the Shrimp Pasta tasted as if it were cooked fresh in my own home, and it was a fairly decent portion, so me and my bf were able to split it. We both enjoyed the dish, but my bf thinks it could've used a tad bit more citrus or salt, nonetheless the flavor, texture, and quality , it was STELLAR! "
"Chicken Shawarma and Gyro with olives, cucumbers, onions and tomatoes. It's hit or miss if you get the tzatziki sauce. I think it's amazing without so it doesn't bother me. It's a huge meal full of deliciousness. I order from this place any chance I get. I'm in love with the Chicken Shawarma!"

"Best Tabouli Salad in town. I order the large size dish, shown in my pic. Love eating my salad with their pita bread is amazing. Even my dog Cheecho loves it. I share everything with Cheecho."
"The food was absolutely delicious, and the portion sizes were incredibly generous – truly a display of hospitality and care. The restaurant went above and beyond by not only addressing every single note and additional request I made but also exceeding my expectations. This is unlike many other restaurants that don't even bother to read or acknowledge customer requests and often provide tiny portions that feel more like appetizers than a meal.
Thank you to the team and everyone responsible for handling DoorDash orders with such attention and professionalism. Highly recommended!"

"I had to go back and give props to the chef who prepared the meal I ordered on Saturday, November 26 @ 2:21AM. INCREDIBLE! You can taste the chef's passion for cooking in every bite. The presentation was incredible. Every bite of kofta kabob and every lick of humus left you salivating for more. 5/5 all around. Quality ingredients! Quality plasticware! Quality all around! Highly recommend! Please give whoever prepared the food that night my compliments! You can taste his passion for cooking in every bite he prepared."

"Gyro Republic is a hidden gem that never disappoints! The food is consistently amazing, and the flavors are always on point. I particularly love their Spicy Chicken Rice Bowl—it’s packed with bold, delicious spices and fresh ingredients that keep me coming back for more. On top of the fantastic food, the customer service is always friendly and attentive, making for an all-around great dining experience. Highly recommend!"
"Too little tzatziki, meat cut too small to be flavorful enough (actually also lacking but it's a chain so w/e), feta overpowers everything (too much), no option to remove lettuce. Just about every aspect of this bowl was fumbled. I've ordered cheaper from closer and they entirely forgot tzatziki and it was better than this. All around terrible. I'd comment on the cucumber and tomatoes, but they were barely present. You're buying a bowl of feta lettuce with hard blocks of "meat". Everything else is just enough for show."
