These nice folks closed a larger, sit-down restaurant on Oakland thanks to the pandemic and reopened in this bright, clean, fast-casual spot just up the street instead. Their lamb, beef, and chicken shawarma is delicious and served on rice or as a sandwich in a more familiar pita bread vs. a wrap like the place down the street (both are good!). Excellent and authentic hummus, baba ghanoush (smokey eggplant dip), tabbouleh (parsley) salad, pickles, olives, and homemade hot sauce are must-have accompaniments. Tasty falafel with tahini is made-to-order and fun to share. The kebabs look delicious, too! And it's all made fast and friendly and for a great value. Shaharazad is officially our go-to spot on the east side for Mediterranean cuisine!

On a cold November evening, I arrived to a meeting at the university two hours early and a student recommended this place to me to grab a bite! I was so happy to see they had vegetarian food! The owner was warm and welcoming. I ordered the spinach pie, lentil soup, hummus and pita, tea, and baklava. Everything came up quickly and was it yummy! They also have meat dishes so this is a great place to go to make everyone in your family for friend group happy and healthy!

Shahrazad is the best middle eastern food in Milwaukee! Authentic food, cheap. Amazing falafel and hummus and baba ganouj. Worth trying everything on the menu. The staff is incredibly friendly.
