Service was amazing. First time coming here and it won't be the last. They treated me like a king here. I got a chicken shawarma and they offered with it fries and fatoosh.
This restaurant serves delicious and authentic Mediterranean food, the fresh and warm pita bread was a treat, the garlic sauce was flavorful, and they provide generous portions. The staff members were polite and friendly, it was a welcoming atmosphere. We ordered the chicken kafta meal with rice/almonds and roasted vegetables and the shrimp ghallaba meal with rice/almonds and roasted vegetables. The Arnold Palmer tasted freshly made. Everything was fresh and delicious.
My husband and I are new to the area and wandered into La Marsa on a Monday at 2:30 when everything else was closed…oh my goodness! We had the place to ourselves and it was like being welcomed into an inviting home. The owner welcomed us and took the time to describe all the dishes on the buffet - and every single thing was spectacularly delicious! Lamb chili, and a chicken vegetable soup that was just amazing. Shish tawook, lamb and mushroom - so yummy. And then he brought us out a plate of, I believe, lamb kafta that was just a perfect little flavor bomb with tahini and hummus. Exquisite baklava to cap it off. You can tell they take so much pride in the food and we enjoyed every last bite. Great value, as well. We’ll be back!
SO GOOD..... YOU HAVE TO GO HERE!!!! The workers here are very kind and the food is worth every penny. I ordered lamb kabob with rice (see picture) and the lamb is so tender and flavorful I feel blessed just eating this. My friend ordered the shawarma and she has not stop talking about it. We love the garlic sauce. Love love love!!!!! Pita bread is honestly delectable. I will be back to try the kibbeh and grape leaves. I love it here!! Abdul was amazing 🤩
Food was divine and service was incredible! Really enjoyed everything we tried and appreciated the supper attentive manager. The portion size was generous but the prices are pretty expensive in comparison to other Mediterranean restaurants. Although is the only Mediterranean restaurant in the area. Will definitely be back and highly recommend to others!
Hasna was an amazing waitress! The food and service were so good, I would highly recommend!
Had the perfect visit today. The buffet was setup - Mon and Tues from 11am to 3pm I think - $18.99 a person. Unlimited fresh pita and garlic sauce, kafta, shawarma and a chicken and beef dish I was not familiar with that had sauteed peppers and onions with a lemon flavor. Fresh salad, humus and rice. It was hot, delicious and fast. I saw them top off every dish with fresh food while I was there for 40ish minutes - we were checked on multiple times and told this was our second home. One of our party members did not eat meat, so they prepared them a special sauted veggies that were really good. We ended it all with some delicious baklava - my kids had 3 or 4 pieces each. Great visit, great food, great service!!!!!!
Went with a group of 5 and the second we went in we were greeted with warmth and a “welcome home!” The food was delicious and authentic. We got the combo for 4 and it was enough to feed us all with leftovers. The bread was SO fresh. Hannah was a wonderful server who accommodated all of our dietary needs!! Everyone was so kind and welcoming, thank you!
Excellent food, staff, and service. We had their catering for a large gathering and the restaurant did a wonderful job. We felt like family!
Excellent Mediterranean restaurant! The staff were so inviting, respectful and the owner treated us like family! The chicken shish tawook with lemon oregano was a 10/10 - the chicken was charred, very tender and juicy and filled with flavor! The fattoush salad was delicious and the hummus and pita were soo fresh. Also highly recommend the baklava! Some of the best Mediterranean food I’ve had in quite some time, I’ll definitely be visiting again soon!
