" I've been to Zakia Deli a couple of times now, and every visit has confirmed its status as one of my favorite spots! The music is fantastic, the vibe is uplifting, and of course, the food is nothing short of spectacular. I love their shish tawook wraps; they are packed with flavor and are wonderfully filling. The service here is quick and efficient. This deli has set a high bar for Middle Eastern food, and I can’t recommend it enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've recently discovered Zakia Deli and I'm hooked! The quality of the food is exceptional, and the flavors are bang on for traditional Lebanese cuisine. I've tried the chicken shawarma and the kebab plates, both were mouthwatering. Not only that, but the portion sizes are generous for the price. The restaurant itself is small and inviting, though it can get crowded during peak hours. Nevertheless, the staff do an excellent job of managing the flow and ensuring everyone is taken care of. I'll certainly be returning for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zakia Deli has an enchanting ambiance that complements its authentic Lebanese flavors. The lamb and beef gyros were a delight—perfectly spiced and generously portioned. I also tried their famous baklava, which was sweet and satisfying. The staff greeted us with warmth and made sure we had everything we needed. I've been to many similar eateries, but this one truly stands out for its commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for genuine Middle Eastern cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had the best falafel sandwich at Zakia Deli! The falafel was crispy on the outside and tender inside, paired perfectly with their homemade tahini sauce. The staff were incredibly friendly, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was cozy, with lovely outdoor seating. This will definitely be my go-to spot for Mediterranean food from now on. I can't wait to try other dishes on their extensive menu, especially the stuffed grape leaves, which I hear are amazing! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! I’ve been to a lot of Mediterranean restaurants, but Zakia Deli takes the cake when it comes to authenticity and flavor! I decided to try the sampler platter, and it was a feast for the senses. Everything from the baba ganoush to the stuffed grape leaves was bursting with flavor. Plus, the portions were more than enough to satisfy my hunger. The cozy atmosphere made it enjoyable to sit and relax with friends as we tasted all the different dishes. If you're in Minneapolis, make sure not to miss out on this fantastic deli! " (*Curated Review*)

" Last weekend, I visited Zakia Deli and was taken away by the authenticity in their dishes! The culinary artistry truly stood out. I enjoyed their lentil soup followed by a kebab plate—it was cooked perfectly. I should mention the generous portions as well. The staff provided exceptional service, brightness in their smiles making the entire experience delightful. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to try something different for lunch, and I was glad that I chose Zakia Deli. The flavors of my chicken shawarma wrap took me on a culinary journey. Not only was the food fresh and flavorful, but the staff were also some of the nicest people I've encountered at a restaurant. The place is small, so it might get busy, but the service remains quick. A great find for anyone in the area! " (*Curated Review*)
