" I had hoped for more from Zabaadi after hearing so many great reviews. While the atmosphere was pleasant and the staff friendly, I found the food to be a bit bland compared to what I've had elsewhere. The chicken was juicy, but the overall flavor profile lacked the punch I was expecting. The portions were decent, but I felt like they could have done a bit better with the provided sauces. Worth a shot, but didn't quite hit the mark for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, Zabaadi Kebabs is a hidden gem! I stumbled upon it while searching for a place with authentic Mediterranean flavors, and it did not disappoint. I ordered the falafel wrap and was blown away by the fresh herbs and spices in each bite. The wrap was loaded with veggies and paired perfectly with their homemade garlic sauce. The ambiance felt cozy yet vibrant, perfect for both casual dining or a friendly catch-up. Can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" During my recent visit to Zabaadi, I was struck by the incredible flavors in the shawarma bowl. It was definitely satisfying, though I would have loved a bit more chicken. The falafel was crispy and perfectly seasoned, which I didn't expect given many places skimp on this dish. The atmosphere had a casual vibe, perfect for a laid-back meal. I might try dining in next time instead of takeout to enjoy the ambiance! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had the best falafel wrap at Zabaadi Kebabs! The wraps were generously stuffed and bursting with flavors. The staff greeted me with such warm smiles, and the decor added a lovely touch to the dining experience. I can say this place understands Mediterranean cuisine well. My only suggestion is that I wish they had more vegetarian options, though the falafel was definitely a star. I will absolutely return here again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Zabaadi is a gem for anyone craving authentic Mediterranean food! The shawarma bowl I ordered was simply delicious, packed full of flavor with fresh ingredients that tasted incredibly vibrant. I can't express enough how great the garlic sauce elevated the meal! The atmosphere was casual and the service exemplary. I appreciated the cleanliness of the space. I plan to stop by again to explore more on the menu for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having heard good things, I finally tried Zabaadi Kebabs. The food was fresh and vibrant, and the staff was friendly. The chickpea salad I had was refreshing, but I expected a bit more from the spices in my shawarma. Overall, a pleasant experience that could improve on the flavor front for specific dishes. I would return to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, Zabaadi Kebabs isn't just another restaurant; it’s an experience. My meal of falafel and tabbouleh was not only fresh but hinted of authenticity that I found refreshing. The flavors transported me back to my travels in the Mediterranean. Even though the wait time was a bit longer, it was worth every minute. I felt like I was pampered with attention from the staff. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)
