This place never disappoints. And the owner sweet as can be!
Had to serve for jury duty! Stopped for lunch at Madonna’s Mediterranean Cuisine. In walking distance to the Court House. The staff was so pleasant & the food was Delicious. They offered a free drink too - since I was a JUROR.Great place if you like Middle Eastern food. If you never had then TRY IT!!!
I work part-time in the evenings downtown and I've passed by this place many times during their off hours. Today I found myself in the area at lunchtime and was finally able to try them out. I was very impressed! The chicken shawarma pita sandwich I had was delicious! It's kind of like a burrito that's made with a pita instead of a tortilla, filled with shawarma of course. The hummus was tasty, too! The dining room is comfortable and spacious, but like any good city lunch spot, it can get pretty crowded and noisy during the lunch rush.I only wish they were open later so I could patronize more often!
If I could give this place more than 5 stars or a “perfect” review, I would. The staff is kind, the food is fresh and genuine. The portions are beyond appropriate. If you work down town and aren’t here weekly (or more) you’re doing it wrong. Absolutely A1, top tier lunch in the area.
Delicious! The attention is superb!
Chicken shawarma pita was excellent.
I had their pick 5 vegetarian dishes. I chose baba, hummus, taboulie, and double falafel. The falafel is exceptional: crispy exterior with a most and tender interior. The baba was smokey and had chunks of eggplant; in my opinion a superior texture to the usual uniform fare. I enjoyed the hummus and taboulie. They were both classic representations of the dishes.Next time I go to my dentist downtown I'll eat here again!
We ordered veggie platter and falafels. The falafels are super fresh and we’re made to order. So we had to wait just a bit but totally worth it! They were crisp, well done and delicious. All other items were also fresh and delish. Loved the hummus.Folks were also friendly and there was a jolly guy at the counter who was my favorite! Very light hearted and happy person. Will definitely go again when I visit Pittsburgh.
Best chicken shawarma and kind employees! One of my favorite places in Pittsburgh.
