" Enjoyed a splendid meal at Al Bawadi Grill! The dishes felt authentic, and the numerous flavors and textures present in the food were delightful. I particularly appreciated the grilled meats, which were seasoned right and melted in my mouth. The welcoming feel of the restaurant made our dining experience special. I would love to return and explore more on their menu. Definitely recommend a visit if you’re craving authentic Palestinian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time trying Palestinian cuisine at Al Bawadi and it was a real treat! I was captivated by the ambiance as soon as I walked in. We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and everything was packed with flavor. The lentil soup was hearty and full of character, while the grilled meats were exceptional. The only downside was the slight wait time for our food, but it was well worth it for the delicious flavors we experienced. Overall, I would say that Al Bawadi Grill is a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a less than satisfactory experience at Al Bawadi Grill. The atmosphere was inviting, and I was excited to try the food, but some of the dishes were bland. The service was good, but it felt like a miss in execution on the kitchen’s part. I could appreciate the effort, but it didn’t quite satisfy. I would, however, be willing to give it another go, perhaps on a different day. " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my friends to Al Bawadi Grill for dinner, and it was a good experience, but I had hoped for more. The atmosphere is quite charming, very fitting for a Middle Eastern restaurant. The food was decent, but some items could use more seasoning to bring out the authentic flavors needed. I rather enjoyed the bread served with baba ghanoush, very delightful, but the grilled meat selection didn’t stand out as much. The service was great, but the flavors didn't hit the mark for me. Overall, a decent meal, but I hope for better seasoning next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a very mixed experience at Al Bawadi Grill. The decor is lovely and really captures the essence of Palestinian culture, but the food didn’t quite meet my high expectations. I ordered the mixed grill platter, which was packed with different meats, but I found the chicken to be a bit dry, while the lamb was flavorful. The service was good, but I felt slightly rushed at times. However, the kunafa dessert was amazing, definitely the highlight of the meal. I might return but I’d hope for more consistency with the food next time. Overall, decent experience, but not sure I’d visit frequently. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've always wanted to try traditional Palestinian food, and Al Bawadi Grill did not disappoint. The hospitality here is lovely, and the decor adds a nice touch to the dining experience. My order of the mixed grill was satisfying, with each meat offering a different flavor while still being tender and well-seasoned. The staff took great care to make sure we were happy. I highly recommend trying their desserts, specifically the kunafa, which is something you don’t want to miss. I will definitely come back for another visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" The dining experience at Al Bawadi Grill was quite memorable! The decor made me feel like I was dining in the Middle East. The food doesn’t hold back on flavor, from appetizers to desserts! The grilled chicken and beef kebabs had an amazing smokiness, while the tahini sauce paired perfectly. I also enjoyed the tea served with our meal; it was a lovely touch. However, I found the service a bit slow during peak hours, which made the visit slightly less enjoyable. All in all, I definitely recommend it for a night out! " (*Curated Review*)
