“ THIS PLACE DESERVES A WRAP AROUND LINE OF CUSTOMERS! First, I have been looking for authentic, homemade Knafeh (traditional Arabic dessert, made with spun pastry called kataifi,soaked in a sweet, sugar-based syrup called attar, and typically layered with cheese, or with other ingredients such as clotted cream, pistachio or nuts, depending on the region. It is popular in the Middle East) and boy when I googled searched, Wahib’s was the first option, I called and the young lady informed me she had just made a fresh batch today and I had her put on hold (3) of them. I am writing this review at 9:37pm and I will certainly call and pick up another (4) this week without a doubt. The staff make it homemade at the location and it is absolutely the BEST OF THE BEST! Mind you my partner and I went just for the chocolates but when we smelled the food being prepared we decided to give it a chance and be honest as most of Mediterranean food we’ve tried have not made us go for seconds but Wahib’s Beef Kebob plate made to order was finger licking good. We requested medium rare and no exaggeration the meat melted in my mouth of how tender and it packed a punch with flavor. Hummus was perfectly smooth, rice was flavorful and salad dressing was delicious! It certainly left an impression. The only negative issue I have is the fact we do not have this establishment in the state we live in! Come give this family owned business a try it won’t disappoint. ”
“ Super delicious beef and chicken kabob. Lovely fresh rice, tangy salad, fresh hummus. Meat is grilled to perfection, especially the beef. A delicious healthy meal. Love getting the combo for two and sharing with my partner. We are always full and happy. ”
“ "I recently had the pleasure of dining at Wahib's Mediterranean Express, and I must say, the experience was absolutely delightful. From the moment I stepped through the doors, the warm and attentive service immediately set the tone for a wonderful meal. The star of the show, however, was undoubtedly the food. I opted for the chicken kebab plate and the beef kebab plate, and both were simply exquisite. The meat was perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection, with each bite bursting with authentic Mediterranean flavors. The accompanying rice, vegetables, and hummus provided the perfect accompaniment, creating a harmonious and satisfying dining experience. The service was equally impressive, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure my meal was nothing short of exceptional. They were knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about my overall satisfaction. In short, Wahib's Mediterranean Express is a culinary gem that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a delightful and authentic Mediterranean dining experience. The combination of delicious food and warm, hospitable service makes this establishment a must-visit." ”
“ The meal I had here was simply delicious! The chicken was tender , the steak was juicy , the humus savory , everything was great and I learned that all Baklava’s are not created equally . This Baklava is top tier! Definitely recommend and will eat here again. ”
“ I ordered the chicken kebab plate and was really impressed. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, the vegetables were perfectly grilled, and the hummus had a fresh, vibrant taste. And I especially liked the garlic paste! ”
“ My first time here ordering for lunch and it did take a little bit for the food to buzz ready but I realized it’s bc it was all freshly made to order! As this is low key casual setting, you order at the counter and you sit anywhere inside Blossom Market Hall or outside and bus your own trays. The FOOD was delicious! I ordered the COMBO FOR 2 for $30. It came with rice, salad, pita, hummus- it was definitely more than enough food for 2 :) - The CHICKEN was surprisingly NOT dry and over grilled bc it was actually very tender and juicy. - The BEEF was great too and the slices were nicely sliced for easy consumption. I’ll definitely be coming back again for more COMBOS FOR 2 if I’m really hungry! ”
“ My coworker and I was craving Mediterranean food and this spot was close. I ordered their salmon plate, with a beef kubideh along with lentil soup and garlic fries. The salmon was delicious and the beef. The soup was good, a little tangy then I’m used to but the garlic fries might be the best garlic fries ever had in my life so far. I’d definitely come back here again to try their other menu items. ”
