Middle Eastern Restaurants near Milpitas, CA

“Had an early lunch with a colleague.Even though I left early, it was quite crowded.I ordered a chicken and beef kebab set at the counter, got a number, and waited at my seat. The sauce is self-serve. There's quite a lot. Grilled vegetables, chicken, and beef are also delicious. I am full. Thank you for the meal.“

“We have been to DishDash many times and previously I have always thought of it as a 5 star place. The service is always good and the dishes are well-presented.However yesterday we ventured away from our typical dishes, Maza Sampler and Reyash. The Rihan appetizer was good but next time maybe we should try the Babaghanouge. My wife enjoyed her Tiki Kebab with Brussels Sprouts but I was pretty disappointed with my Tabsi Falafel. It tasted more like a typical American stew except with Falafels. At least the Falafels were excellent. The other two vegetarian entree choices did not look too appealing which is why I think in the past I always ended up just getting the Maza Sampler.Vegetarian options: Only three vegetarian entree options.“

“First I want to say Meyhouse deserves more visibility for its great food and service! I still remember my first dining experience here, the bread is so so delicious!! All the dishes we ordered are full of favor!! I used to like DishDash, but meyhouse is way better in term of the food quality!The service here is also very impressive! people are friendly and happy here! I haven't tried their Palo Alto location yet, I bet it would be a good one since it was run in the same owner.“

“Koubby (think kibbee), balls, football-shaped, cracked wheat outer shell with perfectly seasoned ground lamb, onion and pine nut filling is my all-time favorite. Tabbouleh Salad, Gyros, Falafels, Onion Rings, amazing shakes and refreshing lemonade also worthy!“

“A taste of Middle Eastern Cuisine Food is excellent! Servings are good enough for the price. I suggest that you add the authentic garlic sauce for the shawarma. But I will say the shawarma is one of the best shawarma I have tasted here in the US. Service is good and fast. The waiters accommodated our needs and they served faster. Ambiance- The place is clean and I like that they have heaters outside to warm us while eating outside. We will surely return to this place as it did not disappoint us. I am happy I celebrated my birthday in this restaurant with my family.“

“I ran in for a quick to go meal before my client and for some reason my cards didn’t work. Ok first reason, my deposit didn’t clear and the card was locked for too many attempts and second bc my kid used up my tuck away money for her online games and I didn’t know this fact. One of the partners, I’m gonna say the one with the mask on (get it, that’s funny because we all have to now wear these stupid things), said, “take the food, come back when you can to not it. I will note it down and either myself or my partner will take care if you.” Ok so first is all, their foods freakin yummy and light and fresh, second, great prices and quick service but lastly and most importantly, sincere gratitude goes to you sir partner person for being so completely inspiring and caring because the reasons I had are true, there are few of us who may not look like we are needing that help and we do! I thank you for being an amazing point of positive karma in this World.“

“amaze balls=yes, that would those falafel balls!my husband had chicken arabi style with tahini salad and shatta sauce he licked his fingers kid you not! whatever is in those sauces, I want me some of that! they got their recipes down thats for sure.Vegetarian options: falafel, tahini salad, tabouleh salad“

“HOLY COW! Dish n Dash was a breath of fresh air. My favorite aspect of Dish n Dash is always their plethora of dips like the garlic dip, roasted red pepper walnut they are all so good and pair well with everything. I got their pulled sumac chicken which in my opinion is their best protein! I got it with frekeh, hummus, and red pepper walnut dip. The frekeh had the perfect texture that complemented the tender flavorful chicken! The chicken was insanely flavorful and it was a cool red color as well! The red pepper walnut dip was so good it was a little tangy and quite creamy as well with the hummus they were both so flavorful but each was a bit too oily. OVERALL I definitely reccomend and the prices are not too exorbitant with the portions being large. It was unique and super tasty so you should definitely give it a try!“

“A casual version of Dishdash in Downtown Sunnyvale. I thought it was a fake, but it turned out to be a proper affiliated store. Although it doesn't have the atmosphere of a high-end restaurant, the food is just as delicious as Dishdash, and you can enjoy hearty Middle Eastern cuisine. It's always crowded and it's hard to find a parking spot.Parking: Finding a parking spot depends on your luck.“

“Delicious and cheap Middle Eastern fast food Dish Dash, shawarma wraps, grilled lamb/beef/chicken skewers, salads, or my favorite Mansaf yogurt-braised tender lamb risotto, the big space is suitable for gatherings, and there are many good things Drink beer/wine/freshly squeezed juice“

The staff is so friendly sometimes when you go into a place, you just feel like somebody is there for the paycheck, however, these guys lived in breathe Shawarma.I’d go here for dinner, lunch, a quick snack, really any use case.This is a must stop by. Bring your friends bring your family.I recommend this restaurant“

“I and two friends dined at Chelokababi Restaurant on Saturday evening, December 17, 2022. It was our first experience at this beautiful and comfortable establishment, and we were impressed with the food and service. I and one friend had Geymeh Bademjoon, which was delicious and very satisfying. My other friend had Shish Kabob with salad, and he said he enjoyed it. I would dine here regularly if I didn't live in Seattle!“

“I enjoyed a falafel plate, which included a generous helping of salad, hummus, and warm pita bread on the side. The falafel was still warm from cooking just before handing me the plate.This is a counter order, sit and eat restaurant. Not too fancy, but the decor had a nice mural. The location is out of the way, but it is worth it to find this little restaurant to get good falafel.“

“I was wowed at SAJJ! The food flavor, the AMOUNT of food they give you, and the variety of sides available are amazing and delicious! I get my daily veggie intake thanks to them. The price is reasonable for what you get. The staff are happy to add extra when asked. The place looks clean. The flavor of everything is AMAZING. You won’t regret it! (Don’t forget to ask for extra cilantro sauce!)“

“I came for lunch on a Friday and was super impressed with the service and quality of the food! The owner is very kind and helpful. It's a casual ambiance. I'll definitely come back! * Biryani rice with chicken tikka: 4/5 The seasoning on the chicken was so good! The rice was super fresh and fluffy. The chicken was a tiny bit dry. * Beef kebab sandwich: 5/5! The veggies in the sandwich were so fresh and crisp. The beef was warm and delicious. The aioli-like sauce complemented everything perfectly, and the bread was just the right amount of crispy. I'd recommend adding extra beef if you want more protein! * Chicken samosa: 5/5! The chicken filling was very flavorful and generously packed. The outside of the samosa was not too thick or doughy, and nicely crispy.“

“I go here basically every day, and usually get the rice bowl with brown rice, BBQ chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, and kale. On occasion I’ll get the fries bowl, which is really good; crispy and fresh. It’s healthy, tasty, quick, and affordable food on campus. I would definitely recommend “

“very genuine and great workers and the food is a amazing. awesome hospitality and it’s located in a great area. My favorite item is bacon cheddar burger or pepperoni/all meat pizza. Their buffalo ranch fries are also so good. They open late too which is a plus. 10/10 would recommend.Kid-friendliness: menu items for kids as wellWheelchair accessibility: spacious ordering area and dining area for those in wheelchair“

“5 stars all around! I can't speak for the ambiance because I got it to go but ... Walked in and the smells were amazing! The young lady helping was super kind and let me taste the couscous before getting it! Wow... so good! Never had it at all and it was the base of my bowl! Chicken shawarma and I LOVED the beets and tomato/cucumber! Everything was so fresh and perfect before I went to a concert. Definitely will be back!“

“TabarakAllah the food here was just like HOME!! It was so delicious I can’t wait to go back again. You know it’s authentic when you see all the Auntie’s working hard to cook the food for everyone. You get a lot of food for a great price!! Definitely a great place to eat!“

“This place is located in a little shopping area with ample parking surrounding it. The inside for dine-in is small and limited. There's a larger dining room, but it's reserved for if someone is hosting a party or banquet so no one is allowed to sit there. The staff was friendly when ordering food, and brought the food to the table once it was ready. You order at the counter first, then seat yourself. The man who took my order said I was the 4th or 5th person in a row to order the Falafel Wrap- so i'd say this item is quite popular! I enjoyed every bit of it! We also ordered a chicken pita wrap and hummus with pita. Drinks you have to pay for, to include water, since there is no drink machine. The food was delicious, however for the ambience and minimal dine-in seating I felt the prices were kind of high. With tip, it was almost $50 for what is pictured of what we ordered. For that price, I personally prefer to eat at a place with ambience and more comfortable indoor seating.“

“Shawarma Mediterranean Street Food offers a delicious experience. The flavors are rich, the ingredients are fresh, and the service is top-notch. The variety on the menu caters to different tastes, ensuring everyone finds a favorite. Over all it is a five-star destination for authentic Mediterranean cuisine.“

“Had the roasted Lamb, as well as chicken and beef kabobs, and all of it was wonderful.The lamb was as tender as I have had anywhere in the bay area and Came in a great portion for the price of the dish.The chicken and beef were delicious and had just the right amount of seasoning remaining to flavor the rice.If you have not, definitely give this place a try if you're in the area.Dietary restrictions: Food served is Halal“

“Nice casual setting. We ordered to go but ended up eating right there. Parking is across the street in the parking lot... can be tricky to find parking at times as it's mostly full. Ordered the pomegranate chicken bowl. It similar to the chipotle concept where you can opt for as many or as little things. I opted in for every single item there (except multiple meats, of course) It comes on a bed of turmeric rice and mixed greens. Got both egg plant and sumac cauliflower as the hot toppings ( these were the highlights- buth are exceptionally yummy). Then the tzatziki, hummus and garlic spread. Then tomato/cucumber mix, garbanzo beans, diced beets, sumac onions, pickles and cabbage, cherry peppers. Added the mint sauce and spicy tahini sauce. When you order in store, it comes with a bowl of lentil soup. The bowl easily lasts for 2 meals for me. And all this for $16 including taxes!“

“The service hands down is the best here at this kebab shop location. Food is excellent taste fresh and prepared very well. This is a clean restaurant and meat is very tender and veggies are fresh and the sauces. Amazing. This is a must place for your wrap or kebab fries cravings.“

“The place is very casual, but the food is extraordinary! Lamb chops and salmon shashlik were heavenly good! Soft, juicy, tasty! And eggplant puree was very delicious! The place is definitely worth coming to! I wish owners would decorate it cozier. The owners deserve a lot of praise as well, kinda, attentive, friendly. All in all, we will definitely come again, though there are place closer to us, but don't want to get disappointed with inferior food. So, see you soon Ali and his kind wife!“

“OH MY GOD. This food is to die for. I have had tons of dishes and all are good, but my favorites are the eggplant (and I normally don’t like eggplant!), meatballs, and falafel. I also love the Brussels sprouts, and the artichoke flatbread. I recommend getting a few small items and splitting. So good. And the BAKLAVA! It is OUT OF THIS WORLD. Like no baklava I’ve ever tasted. It’s magical.“

“First time ordering food here and everything was good. Ordered the chicken kebob plate. It came with two chicken kebab, hummus, naan, salad, and rice. Chicken was charred to perfection. It was crispy on the outside and juicy inside. Flavors from the chicken were just right. Hummus was so fresh and smooth. Their naan is a bit dry so for that, it did not wow me. Will definitely try other options again some day“

“The kabob plate has well seasoned meat with a large side of basmati rice, TWO sides of different salads, and two pieces of sesame flat bread. Delicious experience!Easy, friendly, quick takeout option. This restaurant is reliable and doesn’t skimp! Kudos!“

“Literally I am in love with this place! They have everything I need. I was so hungry and I found this great Halal Option . I was so so impressed by the way the person was cooking there . He was completely taking care of the hygiene. Was using the gloves all the time . The tray he served me food was also so good. I can proudly say this place is close to my heart. I will definitely visit this place again and again.“

“You order at the counter and can stay or take it to go. I love the round platter with Chicken. Lamb is available too. My bowl comes with lettuce, rice, and choice of toppings. Their white sauce tops it off deliciously. There is humus, baklava, and baklava cheesecake available.“
