Mediocre - I'd rather go somewhere else – Pro: the service was prompt and friendly. Con: The food is so-so. The hummus and chickedn shawarma(sp?) was mediocre, and the pita bread is tough, chewy, and not very fresh. For lunch, I got the chick. shwrma entre with tabouli & hummus as my sides + iced tea. My waiter did give me good, friendly service, so I tipped him $3.00. Total spent was $18 - don't feel that's a very good value considering the quality of the food and the fact that it was lunch.

nobody speaks english there...i don't get it. – My boyfriend and I went here on Halloween Eve, so maybe the original staff was gone trick or treating and subbed in non-english speaking staff, who knows. We were harshly greeted by a girl saying "Are you eating here or to go?" - regrettably, we decided to eat there outside on the patio. My boyfriend and I looked at the menu, which to be honest, looked a bit sad. No lamb kabobs for one, and nothing special or worth salivating over. I decided to order the gyro plate and my boyfr... read more

nasty. worst shawarma in the city. went at lunch time, I was the only customer. the so called chicken smelled and tasted nasty. pretty sure the hummous is from a can...and the bread was probably 2-3 days old. so dissapointing.

what happened to the old la fendee? – i used to love this place, but ever since it went under new ownership the quality has really diminished. too bad, it used to be such a gem.

LOVE this place – My husband and I live in Katy and take trips downtown just to eat here. We love the chicken schwarma (sp?), teboulah (sp?) and hummus. I haven't found another Med. restaurant that I like as much as La Fendee (in my area anyways). Convienently, it is located close to my sister-in-law's hair salon...so everytime I get my hair done I treat myself to lunch here! HIGHLY recommend for a great meal!

The food is pretty good but the service.... – The first time I went the service was slow and the waitress was completely incompetent. How could the waitress confuse our dishes as someone elses when there are only three other tables in the whole restaurant. Seriously! The food is pretty good, but I have to agree with a previous comment about the chicken beingdry.... The hookah is ok, other than that it's a pretty nice place to chillax...

Delicious, fun spot, slow service – The patio is a really nice place to hang out, despite the fact that it sits on Westheimer. I like all the food here, taboulleh, chicken shawarma, grilled beef kabob, kafta, you name it! They have argile if you are into that. It's about 2 dollars overpriced on most dishes in my opinion, but definitely the best Arabic food in the neighborhood. The only thing is that the staff is SLOOOOW. I'm not talking about the Mediterranean style of letting you take things at a leisurely pace... just plai... read more

Better food at McDonalds – The beef swarma was horrible. The humus did not taste like humus. The eggplant made me gag. Do not go to this place.
