Food and service was excellent. The meat was so tender no knife required... both lamb and beef.

All afternoon I had been undecided between steak or shish tawook. Did I want a thick, grilled steak with an all-dressed baked potato or lemon-oregano flavored chicken cubes with garlic sauce and hummus? In the end, I went with the chicken.The lemon-oregano shish tawook was assertively flavored but not as tender as I am accustomed to. The garlic sauce was creamy and mild. I loved the hummus, a substitute for rice/fries for a slight upcharge, which was more creamy than gritty, and the soft, thick, and warm pita bread that accompanied the meal. The salad, which also accompanied the meal, was fresh and flavorful.While I did take-out, the restaurant was of a reasonable size to accommodate a weekend crowd.

We tried this place today as my husband wanted to treat me and I am so missing authentic food .This place was amazing the beef was incredible as well as the lemon chicken soup and don't get me started on the coffee and baklava. Meals are large and I would recommend sharing unless you are striving or like big meals.The service was so amazing and nice . The food amazing - do yourself a Cavour and go there , it's a really great experience .

The good and service at The Sheikh are outstanding. On this visit, we shared lamb ghallaba and a small hummus. The ghallaba was full of veggies, and the veggies had an incredible flavor! My favorite part might have been the fresh mushrooms, which took on the flavor of the sauce perfectly, though the onions and tomatoes were scandalously delicious too. Lest we forget, it was lamb ghallaba, and the lamb was lean, tender, and cooked perfectly. I would order this dish again and again. On another note, their fresh baked pita bread is scrumptious, with a slight hint of sweetness that's a pleasant surprise. When paired with the creamy hummus, the combination is stellar. Although my husband and I shared this meal, we still went home with leftovers AND we were stuffed! If I wasn't off from teaching this summer, I'd have been the envy of everyone at work during lunch. As I mentioned, service was also notable, and our friendly server was generous enough to give us a few pieces of bread to take home with our leftover hummus. Reheat that pita bread in a damp paper towel for a few seconds on each side and it's nearly as good as fresh. Yum! If there was anything I'd change, it's the generic cash wrap area. I'm not sure if it's its location, but it acts as a focal point even though the rest of the restaurant has a warm, welcoming feel. Considering that's the only thing I'd change, I'd say The Sheikh is doing a remarkable job. I look forward to reading about your favorite dish!

A woman answered the phone when I asked if they had dine-in available, she said yes. Then I asked how late they were open and she asked me what, she asked for dine-in and I said yes. She said 9. I thanked her and that was our call. Short, no-nonsense and brief. We sat at a table but were moved to a booth after two ladies left. The pita bread going around looks good. We should pick places that don't have a pita oven. Too tempting. Our waiter is super friendly, attentive, accommodating and helpful. He is warm and nice too. We ordered the sheikh platter. All chicken shawarma and chicken kebobs, baba ghanouj instead of rice or French fries. No bread under the hummus either. The house salad was good, lettuce was crisp. Dressing was nice and tart and some sumac to boot too. The hummus is yummy, the baba ghanouj is decent, not super smokey and quite smooth too. It's chilly in here. The air seems to be on or something. Good thing I have my down coat on then. The falafel is not bad, not as hard and crunchy outside, but still crispy and the inside is soft and moist too. The shawarma meat is good, it's more like shredded chicken. There are some big pieces left too. The meat is nice and moist. Would be so good in a taco right now. The chicken kebab meat is good, it's not too dry at all. Their garlic is made with olive oil, it's good. No hot sauce here, some liquid hot sauce, not quite right for the meat though. Some chili sauce would be so good. We had about half of the doubled shawarma meet and almost 1 kebab left. Service was really good. The waiter is really great at his job. Makes everyone feel welcomed and important. Food was out quickly and we never had to wait for anything. Service was the best part of our meal for sure. The price was pretty reasonable for what you get. Food was overall good. I think some veggie grape leaves and some lentil might have bumped up the food value for me. The meats were all nicely cooked and retained its moisture too.

They keep it simple, easy and safe. The person who took my order was friendly and attentive. I wanted only half of falafel plate. He said they generally don't do but customized it for me. Ordered falafel, DebonedChicken (with fries and salad) and Boneless grilled chicken plate. The rice was topped with crunchy pine nuts. I chose lentil soup with entree, it was okay. It also comes with a massive bag of freshly baked warm pitas. The flavors were good and chicken was cooked to perfection. Prices are very reasonable and nice portion size. It's located with lots of food places around. Shared free parking. Convenient no touch carry out service, they bring your order to the car. I am really looking forward to returning.

About a month ago my husband asked about the previous owner and the guy told him rudely that it's under a new management! I convinced my husband to go back there and give them another chance! So We went there yesterday, an hour before closing time and they gave us attitude and mentioned their closing time like an hour is not enough time to make food so we left and would not go back again!
