" Last night was my first time at Salaam, and I was impressed! The menu has a great variety, but I opted for the lamb shawarma and it was fantastic! So flavorful and served with a generous portion of sides. The atmosphere was cozy and a bit upscale which made the experience feel special. Our waiter was very accommodating, and I would happily return. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the ambiance was lovely and the service gracious, the food was a bit lackluster compared to my expectations. I tried their vegan options, and although they were decent, they felt like they were lacking the richness of traditional recipes. I would come back to give it another try, perhaps on a busier night when the chef might be in the zone. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited with a large group and they handled our orders with great efficiency. The falafel were so good! The service staff deserves applause for their attentiveness throughout the night. The ambiance is vibrant and really adds to the experience. Definitely will come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience at Salaam! I came with my friends, and they were blown away by how flavorful the food was. The kebab platter we shared was delicious and plentiful. The service was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend their desserts as well; the baklava is a must! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations based on all the hype, but my visit to Restaurant Salaam was a bit underwhelming. The service was slow, and while the food was good, it didn't particularly stand out as authentic. We ordered the house special, but I felt the flavors were muted. The atmosphere was nice, though, so hopefully, it was just an off night. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience! I took my family here for a special dinner, and everyone loved their meals. The seafood dishes were particularly outstanding; fresh and expertly seasoned. The ambiance made us feel like we were dining in a classy Middle Eastern venue. Our server was very attentive. I highly recommend the baklava for dessert; it's out of this world! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a lovely dinner at Salaam last week. It was cozy and inviting. The food was fresh and tasty, though I felt the desserts could use a bit more creativity. Nonetheless, I'd recommend the lamb dish to anyone looking for an authentic taste! " (*Curated Review*)
