The food is good, but the service is terrible. They tried to charge me $14 for a kids chicken tenders. Their menu clearly shows $7.50 for the kids meal which included a drink. They refused to give me the drink and said they would charge me more for it. I had to really argue with them to honor charging $7.50 instead of $14 for Kids chicken tenders and NO drink! By the way I saw them bring out the chicken tenders from the freezer. Just don't go here if you have any kids I guess ?
I hate to let this secret out, but this place is really good. The food is simple and nutritious. The salad and dressing is fantastic. The spicy hummus is off the charts. They have the best Gyro I've ever had and if you want a sort of fusion gyro, they have one they can make with a hot tortilla and you get a combo Mediterranean/Mexican food treat. It is in a small place now but I see this place expanding if the quality stays up. It has honestly taken me away from my normal lunchtime stops.
So I get that Pearland isn't going to be a hub for Mediterranean food, but I was pretty disappointed with the food here. This place is like Aladdin's, but worse. The fried cauliflower was overly salty, the pomegranate eggplant was bland and bitter, and their pita is straight from a package. They also will upcharge you 50c for pita and tzatziki and hot sauce EACH. $13.50 for what I ordered, so that might be reasonable to you, but I won't be coming back.
Orders a plate to go for the first time as I am typing 3:05 pm, Sunday May 8th. 1 protein and 2 sides. I was there to pick it up on time and I am extremely shocked I was given dry sharmara chicken, saffron rice and potatoes. I can’t believe it. It’s almost as if the plate was fixed yesterday and it was warmed under a light and given to me today. Unbelievable. You be the judge
food is amazing. reasonable price and lot of options. loved the kebab chicken and lamb recommond 10/10
Let my start off my by saying that the personnel running the business were extremely friendly and well mannered. Unfortunately the experience at Arabella was “ok” at best. The process of getting the food after ordering wasn’t well thought out, perhaps a # for those dining in? Kind of felt forgotten about after ordering. My dish of Lamb Kabob with chickpea salad, Saffron rice & cucumber salad was just ok. The lamb was tough and with plastic silverware I wasn’t able to cut through it. My wife ordered the sliced chicken with vermicelli rice, cucumber salad, cauliflower & pita bread but never got the cauliflower or the bread. The person that looked to be running the operation understood that we had a longer than expected wait time and tried to better the experience by giving us a complimentary baklava. Overall I would like to give them another chance in the near future. (There was 4 people sitting with no line when we were ordered and by the time we got our food it had gotten to ~10 in line)
Everyone should eat here. The people who work here are very nice, and the food is fantastic. We order gyros every time we come and they’re always amazing. Highly recommend.The grocery section has a lot of spices that are hard to find in other places, very reasonably priced.The garlic dip and tzatziki dip ??
Nice clean place. Rest room was clean. The food was beautifully displayed. Fresh salads and fruits. Very good customer service. Fair pricing for such nutritious food. I got baked chicken, rice, beets, cucumber salad, fruit salad and Greek salad. It was enough for 2 meals for me.
This was fantastic food! The spicy hummus is SPICY, and very good. The regular hummus is smooth and flavorful. My husband liked the lamb and the salad was crispy, not limp. The chicken shawarma was a little dry, but we were in right before closing. This will be a new favorite.
Have been here a few times now. The food is always consistently fantastic. It is my go to for Gyro's, and the spicey hummus is so very legit. Place is clean, welcoming, and laid out well. The owner and staff are friendly, and helpful. Definitely one of the best places to try out in the land of pears. Keep it up!
