My absolute FAVORITE Mediterranean food ever!! Always packaged nicely, always consistently delicious, never had anything I didn't like. The shrimp is grilled perfectly, and the fatoush salad is excellent! My only complaint is that they aren't open sundays! ;)

The chicken shawarma and beef shawarma were juicy and very tasty. The Baklava was so fresh. Both the Baklava with pistachios and the Baklava with walnuts were amazing. Portion size of the food was good. We will be ordering again. It's Halal.

The Lentil Soup is the only thing I order from here and I love it with a passion but the tiny cup you get now for $8.99 is outrageous! I respect the craft of having to cook this puréed deliciousness but over $9 after tax for this cup of soup hurts as a customer because when we do eat inside the restaurant, the portion is twice the size for less. Sam's, please bring back the larger portion of your amazing soup! The Cilantro Chili Lime Chicken Plate plates are still good sized after the price hike. So that's a win for my Hubby who can have meat. Thank you.

Best Middle Eastern Food in Riverside! Sam's is truly delicious, always made fresh, and reasonably priced. Love the Kafta, Schwarma, Gyro, Dolmas, Falafel, Hummus, Basmati Rice, pickled veggies, salad... everything is great and home made. And you must have some Baklava or Italian Lemon Cake for dessert!

Consistency is key and Sam's Pita is always amazing. Generous portions on the Chicken Kabab Plate however, the Lentil Soup portion has shrunk to half the size over the last couple of years and the price has been raised. I know things are pricier these days but lentils? Will always be a faithful customer but I will miss your lentil soup. It's just not affordable anymore.
