Mashawi Halal Grill

One of the best Arab restaurants in Minnesota! We drive 45 minutes just to eat here for the 1st week of Ramadan, and it’s always worth it. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We truly enjoy coming back every time. We even opened our fast here this week, and the food and presentation were phenomenal. Everything was beautifully arranged and tasted amazing, which made the experience even more special. The only downside was noticing quite a bit of food spilled around the buffet table by other customers. It’s such a beautiful setup, so it was a little disappointing to see that happened especially during Ramadan month. Overall, we highly recommend this place and look forward to coming back again!

Had dinner here with my husband & son, everything was amazing! Food was hot & everything was freshly made, nothing was off or stale, big thumbs up! Staff was amazing & very helpful, my sons platter had toasted almonds on top (traditional), we didn’t realize it comes that way, he’s allergic to nuts, the staff immediately made him a new platter in no time! Great dinner experience, highly recommend!

Showed up with a group of 7 around dinner time. The service was perfect off the rip, Rumzi took good care of us. It was our first time and he helped us navigate the menu. We got the Large patter for 6 to 8 and it was plentiful. Generous portions with high quality and presentation. I highly recommend. Everything was fresh and made to order.

I found this place randomly on Google Maps when I was in the area. I love Indian food but had never had any other Middle Eastern food before so I wasn't sure what to expect. Their slogan, "Bold, Authentic, Irresistible" is SO accurate. My partner and I ordered the hummus and baba ganoush as an appetizer and the Mixed Grill for two people, and this absolutely delicious green drink. I have no idea what it was called, but it reminded me of a mojito! Tart and minty. The main dish took about 20 minutes (of which we were informed when we ordered, which was very helpful) but was worth the wait. Everything was incredibly tasty. My favorite was the lamb, while my partner favored the beef. We also had a really yummy soup. Ramzi and the staff were all warm and welcoming, and service was top-notch.

Blown away by how fresh, flavorful, and comforting everything tasted. It feels like one of those places where the food is made with real care and not just slapped together. We ordered the Beef Arayes, the Chicken Shawarma Meal, and two Palestine drinks. The beef arayes were the highlight perfectly crisp on the outside, juicy inside, and topped with fresh lemon slices and herbs. The flavor was kinda smoky..in a very good way. The chicken shawarma was also really good tender, well-seasoned, and wrapped nicely. It came with fries, pickles, and garlic sauce on the side. The garlic sauce was smooth and creamy, and the fries were fresh, not greasy. Everything tasted clean and homemade. The portions are great for the price, and the presentation actually surprised me everything came out looking li
