"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."

The sausage was so good and well seasoned, and the onions and cilantro on top gave it the perfect fresh crunch. Genuinely one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in a while. Highly recommend"
"So delicious! Fresh and flavorful! Chicken was so well seasoned and cooked perfectly! French fries were crisp, you can tell made fresh to order! Ratio of protein to sauce, veggies, and fries was great. I'll probably try the salad version next!
Definitely will be coming back!"

""This is an honest review, I'm not an influencer or have any kind of affiliation with this place".
Other restaurants need to learn from this place. The taste is absolutely amazing, generous portions with high quality ingredients .
I honestly can't stop ordering food from this place. I highly recommend the Tadig if you are on a budget, it is only 9 dollars which is way cheaper than a poisonous fast food meal and it is very nutritious. Go check my pictures and try it, you won't regret it I promise you."
"This is the "family" meal supposedly enough to feed 4. This is not even half of what was served to us in-house when we ordered the same dish. This is not $70 worth of food. Do better Garson, this is unacceptable.
Edit: I had to share this video screenshot. Disgusting. We will never return to Garson."

Specific items:
Lamb Chops Platter
1. 4 huge lampchop pieces with a lot of meat to the bone. Very flavorful, slight kick with spices. You can tell they took their time to marinate the meat. Seasoned down to the bone. I like how charred and smokey the chops are. Very authentic, you can tell this is not being rushed and made with love!
2. Yellow rice is very fresh & soft.
3. Fries are not too crispy/hard & not too soft/soggy, there's a good medium. I also like that there is a perfect amount of salt on them. An excessive amount of salt is not necessary.
4. Side salad comes with chopped cilantro, tomato and cucumber pieces. Also very fresh & not wilted
5. Pita bread is pretty normal. Would recommend for it to be wrapped in foil to preserve its softness and freshness.
6. Automatically comes with a drink which is an extra plus!
7. Comes with two garlic sauces, a red hot sauce & some kind of salsa sauce (i am not sure what to compare it to).
This is my second time ordering this exact order and it was worth every penny. I personally think you get a good bang for your buck. It's such a reasonable inexpensive price for the amount of food you are getting! So delicious!
I would recommend an option to add more sauces to your order, especially because they come in smaller portions."
"I had the Chicken Tikka Boti Platter - Boneless Chicken and I have to say this platter so far is my favorite. Chicken cooked fresh and good amount for one person.

"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!"

"Rice was a tad uncooked and very little chicken was included in the meal. Taste was OK.

"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!"

"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."

"Kibbeh & spinach pastry were good and recommended. Not the grape leaves though.
BEEF KIBBEH It was weird looking and not appealing to me, but it turned out to be so good! & the tahini served with it was perfection.
SPINACH FATAYER Delish! Crispy on the outside, very soft melty and spicy on the inside. It looks large but it’s quite light.
WARAK ENAB the rice was super dry and felt almost like pebbles, also there is a spice flavor that was in the spinach pastry here, but while it worked well there, it didn’t suit this one at all. The wrapping and presentation were neat but the taste was very disappointing."
"I wouldn rate it a two stars but I was disappointed this time. Lamb chops raw, no seasoning and over cooked batata harra"

"Their molokheya is the reason istarted growing molokheya leaves in my garden. I cant get enough of the stuff and now Iwant to grow my own. Also the lemon mint drink is really refreshing!"
"By far, the best egyptian/mediterannean food that I've had in Houston. This is an authentic restaurant that tastes as it would back in Egypt. The Ox Tail was incredible and fatty. The mixed grill was grilled to perfection. The bread for the hawawshi was soft yet crunchy with fresh meat inside. This is my new favorite spot to order, and the owner is great with packaging the food for delivery. Highly recommend trying an assortment of items, but the portions are very fulfilling. You can tell that the food is freshly cooked upon order and hot when it arrives, which is very important for me. 10/10"

All the pictures show crunchy hard chocolate but there was none to be found. When I asked they said it was "inside the crepe" but if they put it in at all, it must've melted. Definitely not worth $3"

"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"

"The Pecan Crusted Salmon Platter was superb. The salmon was at least 5-7oz. There were 4 grilled shrimp cooked perfectly. The grilled veggies were still crunchy. The mushroom risotto was also cooked perfectly. And the mango salsa had mango, avocados, red onion, cucumber. This went over the fish. Everything harmonized well together. Easily could serve 2. For me, it'll be 3 meals. I've always loved Mezza's food. They have a great assortment to choose from. I love the grilled veggies and their rice. The food is perfectly seasoned. And everything was fresh and high quality. Of course I'll be back!"
"The pecan crusted salmon was beautifully put together and cooked to perfection.
