Arabian Nights Cafe - Portland

This food was amazing. I am still thinking about it hours later. I am a huge foodie fan and eat at all kinds of restaurants. Generally I don't review things, but this was such a great experience I can't stop myself. The bread was incredibly unique and some of the best I have ever experienced. The hummus grand with spices and olive oil. The falafel was crispy and very unique. The poor reviews are somewhat accurate. We went early and they were just opening. However, all was forgotten when such beautiful food was served!!!

This may be the best falafel in the city! Truly authentic, light, and flavorful yum! I also really enjoyed the baba ganoush and I typically don't care for it. That's how good this place is!

Good and cheap. I feel lucky to live across the street from it. During Ramadan it's open late too, which is handy as there is only a few places open past ten in the neighborhood.

Honestly the best chicken shawarma sandwich I had in the US. The food is as good as in the middle east, in a very cheap price. I just found it, and will be one of the regulars.

A literal hole in the wall. The food is quite good, but the decor is virtually non-existent. The man who runs the place is extremely friendly, however, and makes your food quite rapidly.
