" I stumbled upon Moonlight Grill while exploring Portland, and I must say, it was a delightful surprise! The interior is cozy and welcoming, perfect for a casual meal. I tried the chicken shawarma plate, and it was easily one of the best I've had - incredibly juicy and well-seasoned. The side of hummus was creamy and paired beautifully with their warm Iraqi bread. The service was prompt and friendly, which made the experience even better. I left feeling satisfied and will definitely make this a regular spot whenever I'm in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to dining at Moonlight Grill based on the reviews. While my meal was decent, it didn't quite live up to the expectations. The food was fresh but lacked depth in seasoning. I appreciate the warm ambiance and friendly service, but I believe they can enhance the flavor profiles to compete with other Mediterranean spots in town. I might return to see if the quality has changed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Moonlight Grill multiple times and have deeply enjoyed the food each time. The kabob dishes are especially outstanding and authentically prepared. I appreciate how the portions are consistently generous. The service has typically been good, but on one occasion, I felt that the wait time was longer than it should have been. Nevertheless, this remains one of my favorite places to eat in Portland for Mediterranean food. " (*Curated Review*)

" During my last trip to Portland, I made it a point to visit Moonlight Grill based on rave reviews. I ordered the mendi rice with chicken, expecting a flavorful dish, and I was blown away—definitely lived up to the hype. The portions were ample, and everything was very well prepared and served hot. However, the wait was slightly longer than I expected. The place has a nice cozy atmosphere that adds to the overall experience. I will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an incredible find in Portland! Moonlight Grill is a place you can't miss. My partner and I had a wonderful time enjoying their fresh mezze and fluffy pita bread, which was the highlight of our meal. The staff was accommodating, and we felt well cared for throughout our visit. I can't emphasize enough how fresh everything tasted! I will definitely keep this restaurant on my list of places to return to. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Moonlight Grill. The food was good, but I expected a little more kick to the seasoning. I ordered the beef kabob, and while it was tender, I felt it was missing that authentic Middle Eastern flavor I was seeking. On a positive note, the portions were large and definitely worth the price. The restaurant itself had a cozy, homey feel, and the staff were friendly. I may give it another try in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a wonderful spot for authentic Middle Eastern cuisine! I have spent a considerable amount of time in the Middle East, and I can say that the food here takes me back to those flavors. The lamb tikka was perfectly marinated, while the garlic sauce added a wonderful kick to the dish. Each item on the menu feels thoughtfully prepared, reflecting traditional recipes. My only complaint was that the seating was a little cramped, but that's a minor issue in the grand scheme of things. Overall, a fantastic culinary experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. Can't wait to bring my family next time! " (*Curated Review*)
