Great food!. We ordered lunch for 19 visiting dignitaries because we'd heard Fadi's had good mid-eastern food. "good" was an understatement! When I picked up the food (Westheimer location), it was hot, and the staff very helpful in getting it to the car.

The food was absolutely delicious! Our guests scarfed down all of it and none was left for the staff (and we ordered plenty...so we thought!)

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fadi's!

Great Food, but price is definetly an issue!!. Middle eastern food, especially the one that is found at Fadi's is known as fast food. But having to spend over 10 dollars per dish is unacceptable. I would recommend for this restaurant to overhauld their Cost Accounting to make it a better price to value ratio. One thing I truly like about the restaurant is their atmosphere, how they display the food, and the friendliness of the staff. Cleanliness is definetly a must for a restaurant, but I believe that Fadi's does a good job in cleaning their restaurant. I restrooms need sometimes a little more cleaning, but it is acceptable considering how many people frequent the restaurant. The fresh juice section is great, but sometimes lacks variety. The fish, rice with butter, and lamb shanks are great. The hummus and babaganush is great!!

I have catered numerous times for events at my home from Fadi's and I believe the two brothers do a great job in it! KUDOS!!!

Keep the middle eastern food real, as what you serve is fast food. Please try to lower your prices accordingly. I know you export import food from the middle east, that means you get ingredients much cheaper, try to reflect that. As such i give you only 3 stars.

I would not bother. Ok, this food is NOT authentic middle eastern food. Now that would not be a big issue if it was still good food, but it's not! The menu is a hybrid of foods from all over and the arabic dishes they have don't even come close to tasting good. I have been there twice and I left both times regretting it. Not a good value for the money at all if you ask me

And one more thing, no AC in the middle of summer in Houston??? what's that all about?

I hope that has changed!

Fadi's Top Choice. I LOVE Fadi's. The chain is family-owned and operated, and the food is authentic and delicious. I first went to Fadi's at the urging of a Lebanese friend who knows the Fadi brothers, and he told me it's the only place in town to find delicious and authentic Lebanese/Mediterranean food. Boy, was he right! The fresh pitas, creamy hummus, and fresh roasted Baba Ganoush just danced in my mouth. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and the dining room was lovely and clean. I am a lifelong vegetarian, and they have so many options for veggies that it dizzies the mind. Since my initial visit I have returned upwards of 10 times, each being better than the last.

I highly recommend Fadi's both to those who are already well-versed in Middle Eastern/Mediterranean cuisine (as I am) and to the novice. As for the reviewer who had such hateful things to say, well, I suspect this person has not ventured much outside traditional American fare (or south Texas diners, for that matter).

Plain and nasty food. This was the absolute worst Mediterranean food I have ever eaten! The food was disgusting, the server got our order wrong, and the prices were high & horrible!!!! $50-60 for two adult and two kid entres, and that is with NO alcohol or dessert, What a waste of time and money!!!!!

We will NEVER go back.

Very authentic. Best hummus in town. I love this place. The portions are huge so I normally get the 1 meat and 2 sides and share with who ever I go with and we still have left overs. Be sure to ask for the fresh pita bread for the hummas it is wonderful.
