People were friendly and food was good must try
Well, this is a place I frequent every month. I love it, good healthy food
Bought beef and chicken in large amount pre-packaged. Cooked and froze the rest of the beef same day. I waited a couple days and was ready to cook the chicken. Unfortunately, it already went bad with a very foul smell. I called the store to see why this happened.

Bought beef and chicken in large amount pre-packaged. Cooked and froze the rest of the beef same day. I waited a couple days and was ready to cook the chicken. Unfortunately, it already went bad with a very foul smell. I called the store to see why this happened. From what he told me, it seems that all the meat is stored frozen and thawed out daily to appear fresh to customers. He told me to put it straight in the freezer after I purchase. This is not a transparent sale. You should at least put a sticker on the package that says, “Cook or freeze immediately”. I threw away almost $10 and a whole pack of chicken. Now, I have no meal for my family tonight. He didn’t offer me any refund or replacement to eat. We should be more trustworthy and honest as a Muslim business. Less
Outstanding place with great prices and great employees. The owner takes great care of the store and the food they make there is delicious. I'm lucky to have a store like this in my community.
Great bread and hummus
Great falafel pita that you can get made fresh, the baba ghanoush is also very good
I always find what I am looking for, from spices to authentic products
The best baker in the town
Amazing!!! Customer service isn't gone... It's at HALAL-MEDITERRANEAN FOOD IMPORTS.
no good quality for the food no good food not recommended for the food service
The best owner and nice service, I’ll not check the prices while I’m happy in service.
Kind and helpful. Large selection. Thank you very much for the drink suggestions.
Great mid-east grocery with a quick-to-serve carryout in the back of the store carrying fresh ready made options for a quick dinner….then leftovers for the rest of the week. Great food, low prices, great service.
My go- to place to stop in for Middle Eastern groceries. Their Falafel is great!
they r the best in the state
I reached out to Food Import and Bakery to help in feeding people at MAS and they were beyond generous! The food was wonderful and very obviously cooked with love. Everyone enjoyed their meals and there was even enough for people to take food with them. Their generosity made it possible for our food and clothing drive go insanely well.

This is the best Mediterranean store in town. Everything from selection to service is above and beyond.
I was out and about loafing one day and thought I’ve never been to a market like this so I tried it and I’m glad I did it was a great experience. P.S. try the eggplant hummus you will thank me later
I went to get something different. Great store. Clerk was very nice and helpful.
Their chicken shawarma was delightful! I loved all of the colors and all of the yummy flavors! I will definitely be supporting this business from now on! This is a hidden gem in Hilliard!
Lovely spot for all Mediterranean food options.
Went in there today to get some lamb chops i asked the butcher how much was one pound of lamb chops he said it was $13.99 so i asked for two pounds, so he started cutting the first pound of meat and then i told him i changed my mind and i only need one pound, he had the audacity to lie and say that the lamb chops can only be sold 2 pounds and up.

If thats the case then why say that one pound is $13.99 and you can only buy 2 and up and what if i was buying meat just for one person do i have to buy two pounds and then let the rest of the meat go bad. Unacceptable lying is not okay you could’ve told me that you cant put the rest of the meat back instead of lying, never coming back to this place again don’t recommend. Less
Always welcoming and everyone is happy to recommend wonderful things! The restaurant in back is a true hidden gem!
Friendly and welcoming! Amazing, fresh baba and hummus. House made falafel is exactly what you’ll be looking for!
ممتاز جدا
Ordered chicken on rice, kabobs, and some pizza bread. Every single item was on point. Highly recommended.
Amazing sandwiches and great customer service!
Great grocery store with great options, a great kitchen, and great employees!
My girlfriend and me were in the area shopping and caught a whiff of something that smelled amazing…so we popped into Mediterranean Food Imports and Bakery for a peek.

My go to place for falafel. The owner is always at the store and he is super friendly and welcoming.
Best quality and prices out there .
Really good food and customer service. The owner was very kind and offered free samples of falafel and hummus which was delicious. I will be coming back for the falafel and hummus!
Br Anas is the owner of this place. He's one the sweetest persons you will ever meet. Store is clean and pretty much everything is available for your needs. Highly recommend shopping here.
I love their falafel! It’s the best in Columbus by far. Their sandwiches are delicious too. They have vegetarian options. They have so many different types of food from all over the Middle East.

Check them out if you want good healthy tasty food!! Less
First time I've ever been there and they made me feel like a regular. I will definitely be ordering prepared food from them again.
Great food and selection, I love getting the fatayer there and the prices are so affordable.
This store and cafe are a gem to have in our city. This is my go to spot for spices, tea, Turkish coffee, snacks, and more. It’s one of the most affordable Mediterranean markets in Columbus, and I can never leave without stopping at the little cafe in the back for a delicious kefta pita sandwich with fresh housemade hummus and baba that are so flavorful.
Great customer service and amazing quality!!
Great halal options! Love shopping here and shopping local! Doesn’t have henna for hands but said he would get me some 😝 great customer service, also I need a darbooka so try and get me that too
The best place for me to grab falafel and humus and other mediteranean food, The best pita bread you will find in Columbus.. The one they do fresh every day You need to call before you go to make sure they have. Staff very friendly specially with kids
Love this place! A hidden gem
Delicious options each time. Delicious bread, hummus, lunch meals ( yes you can get a sandwich or lunch bowl), good grocery prices, and a very good meat counter. You should stop in, I think you will like it. Help a small business.
This is a great store! Good products and very friendly staff
Great customer service! THE FOODD was top tier, my go to after work plus get some groceries
AMAZING! Best store ever. Literally has everything. If you’re looking for cooking advice they’re more than welcome to help.
The most delicious and tastiest food from the Mediterranean. So welcoming and different kinds of snacks.
A very good store 👌🏼
Their stuff is good and their treatment is very nice
Best service and great food, highly recommended.
Is best stor in town
One of the best Arabic store in Ohio.
Best hummus, and falafel from the taste of the Middle East love it
Great place !
Owner is super friendly. We will definitely be back!
Stopped out of curiosity and looking to try something new. I bought taboon and some sweet treats. A friendly customer offered up what he usually does with the bread. He suggested putting cheese, mint and olive oil. Super simple and I loved it. The gentleman at the register was so kind and friendly.
Great falafel and shawerma sandwiches. Hummus rocks, and the kabab on the grill sandwiches are also good!
I've gone for years and am treated so kindly every time. And the restaurant is one of my favorites. Do not miss a chance to try it.
I like service and area very clean and you can find anything from country Morocco or middle east
Friendly staff and well stocked store
Very nice people at this place. My son earned a free candy as a gift when he recited a Surah!
Best services
The staff here is always amazing! The meat and veggies are always fresh and you can always find what you need.
حسن المعاملة و الاخلاق الرفيعة توفر سلع مختلفة نظافة و سعر مشكورين
Very good service and the food is great. Everyone greets with a smile. I buy halal meat, deli sandwiches, and other grocery items from Mediterranean Food Imports & Bakery. Highly recommended!!!
Thank you so much !!!
This is the best store for halal produce JazakhAllah to the owners
Amazing
They have delicious authentic food. I got a sample of falafel and hummus from the owner when I came in and it was amazing!
Very clean and great customer service with great food options!
Best service ever
best shawarma wrap!!
The store boasts a wide variety of fresh produce, organized aisles, and very friendly staff. The stores cleanliness added to the positive atmosphere. Additionally, their commitment to sustainable and local products impressed me. Overall, a top-notch grocery shopping destination.
Awesome customer service and friendly staff
Excellent grocery store
Great place to shop and buy freshly made sandwiches,friendly staff ,clean place very reasonable prices.Amazing falafel and shawarma sandwiches
The store manager is a wonderful and generous person,everything in the store is very organized and clean, the food is delicious, the customer service is excellent.thank you mr.anas
Over priced grocery store !! The store is ok although not very neat or clean, too many piles of stuff, old and tired look. The prices on things are mostly comparable but some are very over priced - I would go as far to call it price gauging, this applies to their bread, for example other stores have 6 pieces of fresh bread for around $2.25, or even the horrible Alladine bread all over columbus st...

Over priced grocery store !! The store is ok although not very neat or clean, too many piles of stuff, old and tired look. The prices on things are mostly comparable but some are very over priced - I would go as far to call it price gauging, this applies to their bread, for example other stores have 6 pieces of fresh bread for around $2.25, or even the horrible Alladine bread all over columbus still priced around $2 for 6 pieces Yet at this store, you get only 5 pieces and charge you $3.75 for them unbelievable !!! Same for their meat, at least $3 more per lb than Yasmine or other stores in town Humus and falafel also expensive more so than other stores I’ve been here several times and finally decided to avoid all stores that intentionally price gauge and take advantage with such basic things Please avoid them and make a point so they correct their ways Less
I highly recommend their spicy falafel sandwich
Very good Arabic store
Delicious soft fresh pita, delicious hummus, great selection, fantastic customer service. Wish the store was bigger 🙂
Great place if you're looking for fresh meat, groceries, or order food. The staff are awesome and always have fresh pitas. Always smile and I enjoy interacting with everyone.
I have ordered falafel. It came out very nice and the staffs are very nice
This place is one a kind fr! Every person who worked there treated me like family!!
Great service and food!!! My favorite store!!!
Ahmad was vary nice
Super nice and always helpful to me when I go the store!
Some of the best Baba Ganoush in Columbus!! They have a big selection of fresh breads and also have a butcher.
Amazing tasteful food! Spell check* Babaganush Chicken shawarma Pita Sauces All amazing and FRESH
Love the items they offer.
A lot of variety and great quality
Nice place to get halal groceries
I live in Cleveland and every time I visit Columbus, I am sure to stop by. They have delicious snacks and sweets, a pretty good selection of groceries. They have really delicious varieties of Sfiha. The staff is so polite and kind.
Good choice for Mediterranean takeaway
I don't speak squiggly marks but also people and food.
Good Middle Eastern bakery items and nice and helpful staff
Went in to get a gift for someone, tried a sample of falafel, and was hooked! Went back the same day for dinner! Best falafel sandwich and baba ghanoush I’ve ever had!
So so so delicious specially when it fresh
My first time here. I was warmly welcomed and helped and offered free samples of some of their fresh cooked food. It was all delicious and I'd definitely recommend this place and go back when back in town.

The meat felt inedible. #6 food overpriced! To be honest the staff were nice all of them! If the food was warm I would give them 4 or 5 stars. Less
best service
I could give 1 star instead of 3 for several reasons: Prices are too high and needs to be recalculated Some goods are expired and needs to be checked time to time Place needs to be cleaned especially the cooking area … Abu Jawad is the only person who gives a bright light to this place and I really thank him for his great customer service and because of him I gave 3 stars.
Excellent food and a warm welcome!
The owner was welcoming and hospitable to me and my friend. He insisted we try a few samples before buying hummus and falafel, of which we purchased both. A lovely store and I would recommend to all?
Great all around
Good products, prices, customer service
Truly incredible food. The owner gave out a small sample of falafel hummus and baba and I cannot get over how good it is.

I had a great experience today! Was greeted when we came in and was offered a sample of there homemade hummus and falafel and both was amazing! All the food we got was fantastic and very much recommend to everyone!
falafel sandwiches are out of this world and the shawarma is 10x better, definitely definitely definitely recommend.
Best falafel sandwich I’ve ever had! The pita was so warm and fluffy. Cant wait to go back
We love this place! The falafel, hummus, and baba ghanoush are delicious. So are the fries. Everyone is super friendly. Highly recommend!
The food is absolutely delicious. If you had a sit-down dining area I would be there every time I visit Columbus.
Great ownership! Great products!

From that moment, he showed me around and the back of the store where there is a restaurant and meat/butcher counter on one side. He offered me a sample of their house made hummus and falafel, both which were incredibly delicious and fresh. As I looked around at the variety of spices and sauces, he came over with a slice of fresh pita. Again, very good! I decided to try out a dish to take home. I tried the chicken shawarma bowl which was delicious and very generous portions. The young man working the restaurant and meat counter was super helpful and nice as well. This was my first time but I will definitely be back soon! Try this store out for all your Mediterranean food needs!! Less
It’s okay like any other Mediterranean store
Good market 👌
Absolutely amazing hummus!!! Great falafel sandwich, fried fresh!
This is by far one of the best restaurants that I have ever dined. The food is amazing. Fresh not salty like many red. I can not believe how delicious the Falafel tasted. This is hands down the best Falafel I have ever tasted in my life. Oh my God. I love the food so much. I may even go for lunch tomorrow. Thank you for fresh fantastic food.
Good Halal grocery store
Good food
Amazing selection of authentic Mediterranean foods. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I sampled the fresh baked pita with their house made hummus and babaganoush and it was all amazing!! Can’t wait to go back.
Good variety. Very clean. Staff friendly and helpful. Hummus was amazing. Falafel fresh and tasty. I'm looking forward to my next visit!
Great selection of authentic Mediterranean foods. Never fails to disappoint.
Tip top service and great food! If you arrive 2 minutes before closing they'll even turn the grills back on and answer any questions about which halal the meats are!
Tasty and fairly priced sharwamas. Most importantly very friendly and welcoming staff and owner. Will be back.
The food here is amazing!!! They are offering this new grilled chicken dish which is very tasty!! My family and I had it for the first time last night and we will definitely be back for more. The chicken was spiced perfectly and so juicy. It also came with a side of hot sauce and garlic spread. If you are looking for a tasty chicken dish, this is the place to go 😊😊

I always feel confident buying from this location because of how clean they maintain the entire store. It has a great selection of items that can’t be found at your average grocery store. Great quality & clean selection of meats (beef, chicken, goat or lamb), in house made falafel or kafta mix! My family always buys their in house made hummus.

I absolutely love this store ! The workers are so welcoming and truly exemplify great customer service :) I felt truly welcomed and I loved the falafel and hummus and the Zatar bread is the BEST in the city! If you are craving Mediterranean halal food look no further this is the best place !

This is by far has the best Mediterranean food in the city. From the groceries that are available to the falafel. I get their fresh bread with hummas every morning. To die for10/10
Great store, great food! Always fresh food very clean! The chicken shawarma is amazing! Very kind workers loved every minute of my experience! Definitely one of the top stores I will continue to go to!

Grocery isn’t the only thing they do, the restaurant is where the magic happens (combination of amazing cooks and recipes). Highly recommend checking out their restaurant menu.

Their mansaf is amazing too, so is their beef/chicken shawermas and kofta. They do it all and they’re really great at it. Shoutout to Richard and all the staff, they’ll take care of you! Less
Absolutely amazing food, and a great selection of items. The service was great and the food was absolutely incredible, and came out quickly and was not overly expensive. Hands down the best falafel I have ever eaten in my life!
This place is truly a gem. Their food is amazing. I am enthused to get food from them after a long day at work. Highly recommend it.
My favorite place to get all my international groceries. Staff and owner(especially his son jawad) are very kind and helpful. A++++++
This is my favorite spot for some good Arabic food! The food quality, the portions, the service, it really is always a great experience. I love the falafal and chicken the most! The bread is always fresh too.
Great family business very hospitable and kind . There is a restaurant in the back with very good food .
One of the best in Columbus
Restaurant is very good. Staff is friendly. Definitely recommend
Definitely need to visit here if you are in town! They have the best halal meat and products in town, I got the gyro combo and was blown away. Friendly owner and family!!
Best place for any type of Mediterranean food you need! Great priced and great customer service!
Great staff and always have what I need love this place
Halal Mediterranean imports provides quality and traditional food with amazing customer service. They have the best Arabic food and cooking ingredients! MASHALLAH, please go check them out and their food Inshallah.
Home cooking style and taste. Definitely not restaurant Standards. But neatly maintained
This place has the best falafel!
Best hummus, shawarma and pita bread. Great selection of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean food. Wonderful owner and staff.
This place is amazing. The man that created us was very nice. He offered us samples of the Falafel and Hummus. The Hummus was extremely fresh and tasted amazing. The Falafel was Hot and crunchy 10/10. I’m going back there this afternoon to get more. Will be taking friends and family here when I get the chance.
They offer a lot of Middle Eastern grocery.
I like this store and the staff very friendly and helpful
The man who greeted us was so kind—giving us a tour, offering free samples, and making sure we felt right at home! Skip the store bought hummus and get it from here for less money and better taste. Such a fun experience.
My first time there was a couple of days ago, they offer samples, and the pita bread was still warm in the bag. the fresh homemade hummus was awesome. The prices were a deal, definitely going back....
Extremely attentive and helpful staff, awesome selection! Would 100% recommend!!
Amazing food, shawarma was very good as well as the hummus and falafel, Jawad and anas make amazing food and great products in the store as well. Definitely coming back
This is becoming a major part of my diet lately and it's so good. It's more of a grocery store than a restaurant. The food is cheap, healthy, and delicious - what more could you want?

They have good quality meat,freshly baked pitas are good as well, owner is a very humble man.
This is my favorite Mediterranean store in Hilliard. Their hummus is fantastic. I tried their falafel today, and I really enjoyed that, too. I always find something new to try with every visit. I'm definitely a repeat customer.
They have some good product a bit different than some other Mediterranean stores and also they make some good chicken shawarma

This place is AMAZING. My husband and I have been scouring supermarkets for pita. Most are carrying naan which seems to be the new trend. I found this bakery from a Reddit post. I need to preface this with the fact that I am tatted and pierced, as is my spouse. That has led not to being treated poorly, but definitely not welcomed in some area establishments. It can be intimidating to enter a place that is not your culture, or to feel that you are not “supposed” to be there, that you are intruding or worse offending by your presence. The proprietor here was beyond warm and welcoming. That intimidation feeling was gone immediately. He was kind enough to show us around, gave us some samples (we will be back for falafel and hummus because OH YUM)and was all around delightful. They bake their pita fresh every day, and we got both the plain and Zataar (which I’m sure I misspelled). It’s delicious. The small deli/meat counter had a lot of items I’ve not seen elsewhere, (like lamb tongue and what I think was a ready to cook kibbeh) everything looked delicious and fresh. From fresh figs to bulk dates to an array of seasonings, candies, and canned goods I could easily spend my whole paycheck here. It’s a little small, a little crowded, but if my only complaint is that I wish it were bigger, they’re doing things right. I can’t wait to go back. If you’ve been a little intimidated to go into a halal market please check this place out!!! Less
Great little place to get fresh falafel - it's one of the best in town. I pick up falafel, hummus, and pita from here frequently for parties and everyone raves about it.
You can buy fresh meat (one of the best in Columbus) dairy products, snacks for the whole family and should try their shawarma (chicken or beef) and rotisserie chicken, very tasty.
والله مو اسواق زبالة حاطين واحد افريقي يسوي اللفات ويخابر بالتلفون ولا عبرنة وكارتونات مبللة يم الثلاجة وكلشي ماعنده لا لفات لا شاورما لا حلويات مثل الصور واكو ٣ كارتونات مال حلويات من زمن النبي عيسى لعبت نفسي وطلعت فوكاها حب شمسي قمر ب ٤ دولار 😏
Wonderful folks working here, really friendly and gave me a taste of falafel and hummus, and it brought me back to being in Jordan. Get yourself some falafel, baba ganoush, and pita and you’ll be a happy camper!
Warm, welcoming atmosphere and an engaging, driven owner. Excellent fresh breads, falafel, and hummus. A large selection of high-quality imported foods. A great experience, and will definitely be returning.
Great place to buy meat
I highly recommend this place! We were graciously greeted when we walked in. Their fresh flatbreads with different toppings are simply amazing and so full of flavor. When we checked out he found out thay it was our first time there and he provided a free sample of fresh hummus and falafels, which were the best. We will be back and you should definitely check them out.
The best supermarket and restaurant!
Top service and food 👍🏼
Great falafel and excellent customer service! Shop here!!!!!
Good halal groceries، I like their bread and bread with cheese
10/10 would recommend
Delicious food and good people! Will be back again soon
The owner was very hospitable and polite. I came and bought one of their pistachio treats and he offered me a free sample of their falafel and hummus. They were delicious and just what I needed from running errands all day!
Best of the best
amazing service and wonderful food. great people on staff and in the kitchen.
This place is amazing! Some of the best falafel I've had in Columbus, with incredible, fresh, home-made cheese pies and fresh, home-made baklavah! The new bowls are delicious, and the grocery selection has a lot of quality food you'd be hard-pressed to find elsewhere in the city. On top of all that, Jawad is warm, friendly, welcoming, and kind. 5/5 would definitely recommend.
Nice shop for halal meat and Mediterranean spices and food.
This best place to get fresh bread, food, meats and mederitaian groceries. The falafel and hummus is by far the best in the city. The Staff are always nice. It's a small place, but honestly it's a gem. Ask for the free falafel sample.
What an amazing experience! We had never been before this past Sunday. When we walked in (Shame on me for forgetting his name) the owner welcomed us with open arms and offered a tour! He then proceeded to give us free samples of fresh pita and falafels. The BEST falafels we've ever had! We will absolutely be back.
The food here was SO GOOD! And they have so much great food options here ! Recommend this place so much
Good store 👍
We are from Dayton so If we want to go out to eat we will usually make a trip to Columbus or Cincinnati. We noticed this store and decided to stop in. The shop is full of items from the middle east.

The food is healthier and it shows in their spirits. Less
Friendly service
Friendly and good prices
AMAZING FALAFEL Super friendly staff, felt very welcomed, would definitely go here again !
Great place to eat!!!!
My mother and I walked into this store hoping to get a gyro and ended up with so much more. Firstly, of the customers explained to us what was good and how to prepare it. Next, of the chefs helped us decide what was good by letting us sample the olives and mango sauce. Finally, the cashier gave us a free pistachio baklava insisting that we would love it. If I could give six stars I would.
Nice place.
Ok.. listen. Don't get the cheesy bread. Don't get it on Saturday mornings. That way there is more for me to buy. Please and thank you. The stuff is addictive. I never leave the store without 3 bags of the stuff and I always eat a piece, I mean bag, on the way home. It comes straight out of the oven.

Went to other Middle eastern grocers in the area and they are all so over priced! Less
Horrible experience, false advertising. Never going again.
Had hummus, falafel and pita that was absolutely delicious while I was at a get-together. People were asking the person who brought it where she got it from. She said she got it from this store. I went straight there after I left the party to get some to take home. Delicious, fresh, reasonably priced and very friendly service.
Great store with great people. Super juicy shawarma, amazing hummus, and falafel easily as good as the ones I've had in Greece!
Fresh meat and bakery items.
Good cheesey bread
Great place, friendly staff, wonderful food!!
Since my trip to Jordan a couple of years ago, I’ve never really been able to find a quality middle eastern store near where I live. After visiting this market I definitely found my store to get quality food and desserts! Fantastic owner who showed us around the store and let us sample some different foods! Will definitely be back soon!
Stumbled upon this store. They carry all the items I can never find at a traditional grocery store. Pricing is very reasonable. The owner is very helpful and welcoming. He gave us hummus and falafel for our first visit. Will definitely be coming back!
First visit to this bakery. The staff were extremely friendly giving us a tour of the store and bakery, complete with samples of their goods. The pita bread was the best by far along with their freshly made hummus. A broad selection of Mediterranean grocery items compliment an amazing bakery.
Best hummus and pita I’ve EVER had. Amazing meat pies, fantastic selection, incredibly gracious service. We will definitely be back!
The house-made falafel and hummus were amazing. Excellent customer service. Such a friendly environment.
The staff is kind and informative while serving the best hummus and falafel. Definitely recommend stopping by and trying it!
Amazing humus. Try the Iraquí bread. It’s amazing! Also the Chicken Shwarma melts in your mouth!
Awesome fresh made sandwiches Must try
Staff was so kind and generous, also delicious food, and good prices!
Kind and welcoming staff offered delicious samples of their homemade hummus and falafel, worth a stop!
Fantastic place for anything Mediterranean. Get the fresh pita. You won’t regret it!
I've been in a few times now. The owner has always been so friendly, and the food is tasty and affordable. I recommend the falafel sandwich!
Best of kind people are very friendly and open heart, you can get Mediterranean food solid or fresh meat. Delicious sandwiches, realy special. I truly enjoyed thanks young man I forget his name but good human being. ❤

The owner and his son were incredibly kind and generous. They were super accommodating and very knowledgeable about products. My husband is Lebanese and was excited to check this store out when we visited Ohio. They offered us samples of their falafel and freshly made hummus...amazing. They have a restaurant in the store and they also cater for events. We will definitely return when in the area.
Very nice place
This was my first time going there, and I really liked it. It's so clean and everything is well-organized and the falafel and Hummus are so good and fresh. It's a 25 minute drive from my home, but it's worth it. Will sure be coming back!
I only go there for Halal meat. Fresh meat and chicken. Mohammad chops the meat in the fashion I request. All employees are nice and accommodating. If you're there check the bakery items, fresh off the oven and delicious.
Great food.

Excellent store friendly stuff
Price are getting more expensive each visit...sometimes food expires and still on shelves for sale
One of the best in the area
The best fresh falafel and humus.
Very friendly staff. Good selection of middle eastern foods and spices. Offered us a sample of falafel and it was really good. Will definitely be back to try more!
Thank you. I have been looking for good Mediterranean food here in Columbus and it seems I have found it.
Grocery shelves stocked full with a large selection and variety to choose from. Fresh baked breads including za'atar and cheese breads. Fresh falafel made while you wait. Stuffed grape leaves, hummus, taboulee, baba ganoush and much more! Did I mention a olives of all kinds?
Good place to shop in. Mr/Mohammed, in meat and deli, is so nice and helpful and will give you the best service ever.
Chicken Shwarma with spicy sauce is 10/10. Great customer service and products in store!
Excellent Chicken Sharwarma!
Such a lovely shop, bakery, and world class falafel and hummus!!
The an at the front was super nice and even offered us samples. He was warm and kind and the food was good too! A very welcoming atmosphere.
Everything is delicious
All of the staff is always friendly and very helpful, and the store is always clean. The hummus, babsganoush, and falafel are the very best I've ever had - anywhere! Best prices around on spices and grocery items, too. Definitely worth checking them out!
This place has great customer service and offers authentic traditional Mediterranean dishes which is rare to find in Central Ohio. I ordered a large tray of mansaf for a friends gathering and we absolutely loved it! The lamb was so tender and the creamy yogurt was perfect with its aromatic spices. It was delicious!
First time in the store, was today and I will definitely be back! The hummus was out of this world and the Falafel was the best I've ever had!
This place is amazing. The staff was very friendly and welcoming offered me a free falafel piece for my first time. The chicken shawarma and side of hummus, I could go there everyday just for the hummus. I will definitely be returning again for the food and the groceries.
Food is always fresh and delicious and the staff of very respectful. 10/10 experience every time!
Restaurant is very very good and always fresh. The pita bread they sell is delicious. Workers are VERY helpful and respectful. Store prices are fair and reasonable. I would recommend this store to anyone. This is the only Arabic store I will go too.
Had everything I needed. Ground meat fresh for my order, and even gave a free sample for my first visit! Very helpful 👍
I have had shawarmas from here and several jarred vegetable items as well as sardines and everything has been great!

This place is great! They have the best fresh pita and meat pies. As others have said, the staff is very friendly and helpful.
We always go there to buy our groceries The best price
Staff was very friendly. The food was AMAZING. Definitely coming back for more chicken sandwiches
Such a wonderful experience here! The food is lovely and the employees are extremely kind and genuinely care about their customers. The hummus here is by far the best in Columbus. I believe Jawad was working when I came in- he is so kind and provided great customer service. I will be returning!
Fast and clean service
Lovely restaurant and store. Told them it was our first time in and we got shown around and given free falafel and hummus samples. Great baklava! Will be coming back.

So glad to find this hidden gem. And bulk spices for reasonable prices. I would take away half a star as I was unimpressed with the chicken shawarma. I wish I could find lamb shawarma somewhere locally. But I will definitely be back here frequently. While we were in the store, we spotted an employee praying on a mat in the corner and at a different point, saw the butcher transferring a whole skinned goat or lamb from the back into their freezer. My child was surprised to see the head still attached. Now that’s an authentic experience. Less
My family and I have been enjoying the hospitality and quality of services for many year’s from Mediterranean Halal Store! We highly recommend!
They give fresh made falafel to try for my first visit ,very friendly and hospitable. Everything is fresh
One of the best falafel sandwiches we've ever had!
Very friendly staff and the owner once offered us to taste some of their menu items for free.Falafals are to die for and very reasonable price.
WOW is really the only word that comes to mind while visiting this SPECIAL GEM. Today was my first time visiting, and let me just say it will not be my last. This will be my weekly spot to stop.

I decided to order the chicken Shawarma and again I am blown away and speechless of the quality and taste of the Shawarma. in their store they have pretty much anything you can think of, and they are ready to help explain anything you need help with. I give them 10 out of 5 stars for their food and quality, and I give each employee (owners) a 100 out of 5 stars for being the people they are because they are amazing. I cannot wait to come back and see you guys soon! Less

What an amazing store. I was instantly greeted and offered a tour of the store and selection. The owners and kitchen were sociable and helpful! They have a great selection of middle eastern spices, teas, snacks, and foods. The kitchen has the best hot sauce, homemade hummus, falafel, and kibbeh. This is also the most authentic kebab I have had outside of Europe.
They have so many delicious things, I don't know where to start. Indian sweets are my favorite.
Very friendly staff. Great & FRESH food. Always feel welcome here. Love the pita bread, always take an xtra bag.
Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. Delicious falafel! Will be back.
Amazing. Flavorful. Authentic. Just a few words to describe this hidden gem. You need to check it out!
Amazing falafel, hummus and shawarma sandwiches. Even has great sweets like baklava and Kanafa. Highly recommend. Will be coming back for sure. Staff made it so easy with everything as well.
Best hummus ever!! I will never buy hummus anywhere else!
They have the best falafel and hummus!( so creamy)
I 100% recommended this place. The best falafel I’ve ever had! Great, personable workers, and great food
Amazing store and great customer service. They make you feel so welcome and even help you to choose from the vast assortment of authentic products. Be sure to try the fresh food offered and meats. We have never felt so welcomed at a Mediterranean store before and we have visited so many in the area.
First time here, staff was very friendly and helpful. The falafels were amazing, definitely recommend.
Staff was very friendly and helpful, they gave us free samples. The food tastes very good, I really enjoyed the falafel here.
Small grocery store with a wide selection of products - but the real gem is in the back in the form of the bakery and grill. Fresh hummus, pita and baklava made daily along with an offering of kibbeh falafel and schawarma. Stop in here and support a local business and eat some delicious and affordable food!

He recommended we try some of the desserts such as the Warbat. Definitely did not disappoint. We were greatly pleased and would highly recommend this tasty test. Also... Four sandwiches, two drinks, and two desserts all for $38... Including tip! And they made fresh bread daily. It was all so tasty. Less

If you're confused about how it works, just ask them. The food was beyond amazing and incredibly priced. Falafel is 4/$1 and the best I've had in town. Their hummus is better than anything you can get in the store. Grab some to go in addition to their freshly baked flatbreads. Less
My husband and I have been looking for a nice middle eastern market in Columbus since we moved here and we finally found our go to! The store was clean and organized and the staff was so friendly. We also tried the chicken shawarma and falafel sandwiches and they were the best we’ve had in awhile! Will definitely continue coming back!
Greatest food in Ohio
Got some great tea here, and was given a free sample of the most delicious hummus I've ever had. Told it was made fresh in the store
I'm from out of town but have visited this place twice when traveling through. Their restaurant food is delicious and the prices are good. Very friendly staff. Will look forward to stopping in some more.
falafel tastes great.. also its a good market
they sell spoiled and expired goods
Great customer service and great food
Nicely
Amazing food
Hated this restaurant! Ordered at cashier/desk did not speak English so did not get to order what I wanted. Very, very expensive for what I got. Will not go back!

If you want true Middle Eastern food look no further. From the falafel to the hummus, this place doesn’t disappoint. When you first walk in, the place is stocked full of unique foods (that I will be back to try). The hidden gem however, is when you walk to the back and find a counter where you can order all types of food from meats to breads that are all hand made. A large part of the store that I enjoyed (however, it may be because I have a small obsession with drinking it) is the variety of teas that they stock that I’ve never heard of before. The best part of all of this however, is the price of the food and each stocked item. You just can’t beat it. From less than $9 for a tin of tea that I will enjoy for months, to hummus that kept me stuffed for the rest of the day, I’m happy I checked this place out and I will be back. Less

We got a pack of fresh pita bread, a tub of hummus, falafel, complimentary spicy sauce, and some traditional Middle Eastern beverages. The food is absolutely delicious and very affordable - think your more expensive fast casual quality of food but for fast food prices. I also purchased a very large tin of Arabic loose leaf tea to take home for only about $8.00. It’ll last me quite some time! Another thing to mention is the sense of community I found here. The owner and staff were so hospitable and helpful when I was deciding what to order and even what type of tea to get. Also, complete strangers to me came in and welcomed me to the shop and also gave their suggestions. As someone who is not as familiar with Middle Eastern culture or cuisine, this was so comforting and ensured I had a wonderful experience. For those that are familiar with this cuisine and those that are new, this place is fantastic. I only wish I lived closer! Less
Has a friendly staff and felt welcome.
Great store with authentic goods. Owner is SUPER nice. He gave us samples of different things that were all very wonderful. The café has home-cooked food that is tasty and very reasonably priced. We will be looking forward to coming back and trying some of their baked goods and more sweets!
We get all species added with salt so be careful while you buy spicy masala packets.I had purchased Maggie masala,Dal fry masala,etc they were tasty but again no need to add salt coz they already have it.
Nice Mediterranean market. Great place to pick up fresh pita and falafel. Super friendly staff and a lot of great unique options.
Love this place. The meat cutter is so friendly and the guys here are so nice.

What a hidden gem!

The hummus was incredibly smooth and creamy. The house-made pita was still warm when I bought them. I got a bunch of falafel and shawarma (chicken and lamb) sandwiches. They were frying up fresh falafel for me and even gave one for me to try before having me order, just to make sure I liked it. I also got a dozen of fresh Persian cucumbers to eat with the hummus - they were so crunch and fresh. Their hot sauce was potent with punchy heat. I implored them to sell me a box of fresh baklava and they gave in to my pleading even though they said it was already reserved. Haha thanks! The service was quick and attentive with great prices. Thank you and wish you the best in your business! Less
good selection
Fresh meat and produce with lots of variety!
Nice store
I moved from Saudi Arabia few years back and this store make me so nostalgic. I love to visit this place if I have nothing in my list to buy from here. It gives me that saudi arabian vibe and I can find almost everything here. Mostly I search for Indomie Chicken curry flavour which is very rare here . Love this place, thanks to this store my homesickness pause for a while..
These guys were great! Awesome food. Try the falafel
Very friendly staff. Delicious food. I really enjoyed their bread, hummus, and falafel. I typically don't like falafel, but I found theirs to be delicious.
Great place and great people and good prices
Whenever i want shawarmas i go there with my friends!!! Best Shwarmas in town!

I was hungry and saw it while passing by and decided to give it a try. The staff was friendly, gave me explanation of the menu, and gave me recommendations. The beef sandwich, falafel and hummus were all very good. Recommended. Also, falafels are 5 for $1. So good.
Awesome filafil,must try their pita bread is one of the best in town
Best kabob in town
Good people, really helpful will definitely be back.
The food was fresh and very good. As well as the portions and price!
I get all my meat and poultry from here. The owners and workers are very personable and honest. They also have the best falafel in town.
Great food, great service and great experience!
ممتاز والبائعين ودودين جدا
Very good food!! These Arabs really can do wonders in the kitchen!
i love there chicken shwrma nd sheek kabob and chicken cubes, 3stars now for slow service coz keep me wait 1hour, even tho 2working guys there in kitchen but so slow
This place is fantastic, the physical store is unremarkable but the owner is awesome. He went over the top to make sure we found everything we were looking for, showered us with free samples, and told funny stories. Everything we ate/purchased there was delicious and priced well. If you are in the area you need to drop in, if for no other reason than the house made baklava which is to die for.
As soon as we walked into the store the owner/ associate gave us a tour and let us try a few samples. Very welcoming atmosphere and very interesting treats! Will definitely return.
Great place to go for groceries and lunch. Friendly and knowledgeable staff with a great selection of products. The falafel is excellent!
The food is AMAZING. Great produce. Everybody is nice and I can’t wait to come back again!!
Great store with an owner who cares about their products
This restaurant has exceptional food and service compared to other similar types of Mediterranean stores out there in Columbus. I would highly recommend for you and your family to go check it out.
Best food and great place to get groceries
Great food at an exceptional price! I love coming here with my family as they offer a multitude of different foods to choose from. Customer service is always spectacular making it very easy to shop here.
Staff is very nice, if you want to try authentic Iraqi falafel, this place is your only choice in Columbus. we always go there for there restaurant. since i live in Dayton i don't do my grocery from this place.
Good customer service, good price , Good Jordanian mansaf ,
The freshest produce and cooked food can be found there !! 110% recommended 👌🏼👌🏼
Food is wonderful & so are the people working!
They have the best lamp meat in the area. They provide fresh and young sheep meat.
The market is definitely worn, but all of the products and service are top-notch. I visit probably once a week, they are so accommodating. Great job, everyone!
