Amira Grill

Now yall know u love my Arabic food especially with me being Lebanese so I'm critical when I go to these restaurants. This one is also a gem and was so amazing. I got a chicken shawarma along with a mixed grill plate. Everything and I mean everything was perfect down to the seasonings that reminded me of home! The owners were Lebanese as well and the most friendliest people and accommodating service I ever had. If you're ever in the area you definitely have to eat here

I had kept seeing this restaurant whenever I drove on Colorado Blvd for years. This row of middle eastern restaurants had always intrigued me so finally today, I made a quick stop to get me some vegetarian food for lunch. Its entrance is quite grandiose compared to other restaurants' but once you're inside you'll be amazed at its simple/clean interior. I kind of saw a lady cleaning the floors/tables while I was taking some photos outside; that same lady greeted me at the ordering counter. I sensed some warmth coming from her; thank you!!Their menu is simple, too. In a way, it was easy for me to decide. As soon as I spotted what I was craving for (something vegetarian), I wasted no time to order it. The prices are kind of high for entrees at this restaurant though ($19 and above.) And it appears that they serve the same things throughout the day so there appeared to be no separate menu for lunch or dinner. Even Hummus plates are $18. Sandwiches and salads are decently priced however. It took them good 15 minutes before my food was ready. This was okay; I wasn't in a huge hurry. I tried not to have any expectations but was slightly hoping that the quality of the food would be top notch(because $26 after tax/tip was a bit too high for a quick lunch plate.) As soon as I got home, I started my lunch right away. When I opened the container of my veggie plate, I was shocked to see some French fries lying on top of everything. How weird!! I've never seen a middle eastern food decorated by French fries so I kind of thought what the need was for that (lol!!) Is this necessary?? Without further ado, I started digging into the main ingredients of the plate. Falafels, grape leaves, hummus, greens and rice were all beautifully placed inside the container and they all tasted really good. Their falafels are probably the best tasting ones I've ever had. While I was still enjoying the nice meal, I still couldn't get over the unnecessary French fries. Don't get me wrong; I have nothing against French fries. I just think that they don't belong in this middle eastern food (lol) is all!!Overall, this place does serve good quality Lebanese food. One thing I enjoy eating at a middle eastern or Lebanese restaurant is (stir fried) eggplant This restaurant doesn't serve it (I don't think.) I don't know how long it's been since the last time they updated their menu but it'd nice to see some eggplant dish added to it in the future (that is my little request/suggestion.)

I am sorry to disagree with the other Yelp reviewers but the food here was pretty meh. Plus you have no water...except Costco bottles you charge for? Really ?Highlights: Warm pita with Hummus....excellent.Lowlights: Everything else. Really so so falafel sandwich. I much prefer a traditional one not this burrito type thing.The plates were sort of a mish mash of stuff. Jalapenos on rice in Lebanese food? like wtf.This whole shopping mall has several other restaurants that are pretty darn good....gyro town for instance.

Nice little spot for a good shawerma. For my first visit, I tried both the chicken and beef, both were tasty and hot the spot. Service was quick and simple. It was nice to sit outside, even though the traffic was loud, but the sun was hot!

We went to Amira grill after an Uber driver recommended it- we were absolutely blown away. Best falafel I have ever had, incredible dolma. Friends got the chicken and beef kabab and also thought theirs were incredible. Service was wonderful. Ambiance was great as well. Could not recommend this place enough.

I've never had lamb shank before it also came with, rice, hummus, garlic spread and yes a couple of fries. I don't know if it was on the menu, but I asked the person at the counter what she would recommend. I should've gotten names because the customer service was so warm and friendly. Oh my this was one of the best meals I've ever eaten. Go here order this dish if you want a very special meal. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. Do it you will be pleasantly surprised.

Super delicious food (had the mixed chicken and beef shwarma plate) and would recommend. Casual dining and quick service. Very tasty and for sure coming back!!

I was so excited for some grape leaves I ended up eating 3 before I took the picture! So friendly and clean restaurant! Took a little bit for the food to come out but every seat was taken when we arrived!

Service was good and food is excellent! Parking is a little limited. Not too busy and plenty of seating.

Food = delicious & fresh, authentic Wait = better than expected Friendliness = veryHighly recommend
