Best meal I've had in a long time. Easily my new favorite spot on Portland. Absolutely fantastic. On top of it being delicious, I got mine to go and even the presentation of it all was gorgeous. Came here to post a raving review, and this is the only restaurant I have ever seen on Google that has a perfect 5-star rating. They deserve it.Be aware: entree type items are made fresh/to-order, so if you're eating on your lunch break, I'd recommend calling ahead.
This place is amazing! Love the Dina's Falafel and it's the best hummus I've ever had. My kiddo loves the Turkish Delight, would be great if there were more flavors... but that's hardly a complaint :D.Tip: Stop by and pick up your own food, everyone I've met that works there is great and it's nice to talk. Also, park out on Forest Ave - there are plenty of spots and it is way easier than pulling into the drive.
Omg, yes. Finally! A GOOD falafel and shawarma (chicken)! Hummus was perfect! Grape leaf was subtle and crisp! The pickled beets were fresh and tangy! The naan is HUGE! The size of dinner plates!
This place is an absolute gem.I love going here for lunch, you can’t go wrong with the chicken shawarma. It’s absolutely hands down the most amazing food I have experienced. The seasonings and middle eastern feel is excellent. The bread is homemade and incredible. All of the deserts are wonderful. Five star food and customer service.
Dina's is our go-to lunch spot in Portland - not only do they have delicious falafel, chicken korma, and the freshest pita (huge!) they are so kind & generous with their customers. While we were waiting for our order, the employee offered my son a sample of a new beet dessert treat they were working on as well as a few french fries to keep him happy. They put a lot of love into their food as well as service. Thank you!
Dina’s is an amazing place. The staff are all welcoming and kind. The food is exceptional. Be sure to get some dips and sides from their big case of deliciousness. The chicken shawarma wrap is my go to, but everything is amazing here.
This place is AMAZING. Super authentic Middle Eastern food made by a kind soul named Tabarek who made the most delicious sandwich ever! I never eat an entire meal at any restaurant, but I ate my entire Saji and took side dishes to go. Makes you feel like you’ve just gotten a giant hug made by family. Everything is great, can’t go wrong.
I am so pleased that I found this place today. Everything we got was delicious, and the portions are generous for the amount you spend. The baklava and halva were some of the best I've every had. The woman I spoke with at the counter was friendly and kind, and it was obvious that they care about the food they make. I will definitely be going back soon. Thank you Dina's Cuisine!
I had lunch from Dina's the hidden gem of Maine so we could try a variety of meats and everything was great! The chicken kebab was tender and tasty, the meat kebab had a great smoky flavor and the rice was just right. The hummus was soft and light, my kids loved the food, but the base flavor was very good, I wish I had taken pictures because the portions were generous, the meal fueled my family of four with the leftovers. I recommend it and you won't regret it.
Absolutely incredible shawarma here. The chicken is so flavorful and the sandwich itself is perfectly crafted. The hot sauce isn’t overwhelmingly spicy but definitely adds to the meal. Highly recommend Dina’s!!
