" Absolutely loved the food! The service was friendly but could be a bit faster. The kabobs are worth every dollar, and you really get an authentic taste of Iraq. This is a fantastic spot to enjoy a special meal with friends or family. I look forward to my next meal here! " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem! The kabobs are simply amazing. I love how the spices really bring out the flavor of the meat. The service was a bit slow, but the fantastic food made up for it. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Iraqi cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Chef Malek was a delight! The truth is that it felt like a slice of home. The food is just as authentic as it gets. The lamb tikka was out of this world — perfectly spiced and grilled to perfection. I tried some of their Arabic chai, and it was a perfect finish to my meal. The ambiance is no-frills, but that added to the charm. I felt like I was dining in someone’s kitchen, which made it all the more special. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place always provides great food at a great value. The kebabs are fantastic! I love ordering their unique dishes that you don't find anywhere else. They've become my weekly treat, and I always look forward to my meals here. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Iraqi cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" The flavors of the dishes at Chef Malek are authentic and delicious! The fish baked with red rice was a recommendation from our waiter, and it did not disappoint. The presentation was clean, and the meal had character. The only downside was the cramped seating, which made it a bit uncomfortable at times. Otherwise, I loved the experience and would return for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chef Malek’s has a varied menu with options for everyone. I tried a mix of dishes, and while some were excellent, others didn’t meet my expectations. The gourmet kabobs were impressive, but the sides felt a bit lacking. If the sides were better, this would definitely have been a five-star experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing about this restaurant, I decided to check it out. The ground meat kebab was by far the best I've had—flavorful and authentic. The service had its ups and downs, with one waitress being really attentive while another did not check on us. The overall vibe was friendly, and I felt welcomed. " (*Curated Review*)
