" I find Cafe Mawal to be a delightful little spot! I have tried their chicken shawarma, which was so flavorful and tender, as well as their garlic dip that had the perfect amount of garlic. The staff was friendly but somewhat rushed; I understand it gets busy. All in all, it was a delightful experience, and I look forward to trying other dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Café Mawal based on a friend's recommendation. The pricing for their lunch specials is fantastic, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality for such reasonable prices. I had the beef shawarma, and the spices used made all the difference! Looking forward to returning for dinner soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience at Cafe Mawal. The service was slow, and our orders got mixed up. I ordered a kebab platter but received chicken instead. The atmosphere was nice, but the food didn't make up for the service issues. I appreciate friendly staff, but it seems like they need to work on their coordination. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is one of my favorite spots to unwind after work! The hookah selection is top-notch, and the food is always flavorful. I love sharing the mezze platter with friends—it’s perfect for group nights out. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to ensure you have a good time. Highly recommend for a relaxing evening! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations after hearing great things about Cafe Mawal, and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere was vibrant, and we loved sitting outside on the patio. The chicken shawarma was exactly what I was hoping for—flavorful and satisfying. The service was friendly and prompt. I'll definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love this place since it's known for Mediterranean cuisine, but I just can't. The falafel I had was overly dry, and the hummus lacked flavor. Although the atmosphere is cozy and nice for a casual meal, the food didn't meet my expectations. I might consider trying a different dish next time, but I wouldn't rush back. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my third visit to Cafe Mawal and it continues to impress! The mixed grill was packed with flavors, and the portion sizes are generous for the price. I appreciate how clean and welcoming the atmosphere is. Service was a bit slow this time, likely due to the crowd, but it’s worth the wait for such delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)
