The best vegetarian grape leaves! The chicken and rice soup is out of this world. My daughter asked me to get some and bring it to UNH! Of course I did. The baklava is so yummy!!
This was worth the forty-five minute drive to come here! The food is absolutely amazing!!! My brother came up from Florida and couldn't wait to come here.The waitress was so attentive and pleasant. I would one million percent recommend coming here. It was so good we took multiple orders of what we ate to go so we could have it at home. Awesome job Shadi's!!!
1. Lunch Kafta (14.99) at @shadisrestaurant. 'Ground lean beef and lamb, mixed with parsley, onion and spices. Charcoal broiled'. Their hand-cut fries are excellent. The nicely charred kafta was really delicious, and they were also juicy and really well seasoned. You get fresh warm pitas in a plastic bag with real butter. My side salad was pleasant, as was the house dressing. The service here is always impeccable and friendly. 2. Lunch Lamb (16.99) at @shadisrestaurant. 'On the stick. Charcoal broiled with onion'. The lamb was ordered rare, and it was. It was also super tender. The handcut fries are a real treat. The salad was fresh, but I'll order the dressing on the side the next time. Lunch Thurs-Sat only. 3. Lunch Arabic Platter (15.50) at @shadisrestaurant. 'Baked Kibbe, Grape Leaves and Cabbage'. This time I ordered the Caesar dressing on the side, which was delicious! Fries of course. The baked kibbe was very tasty and had some sort of filling in the middle. The grape leaves themselves were very tasty and a bit tart. The filling was OK, the rice was overcooked for me, and the filling was a bit bland. The cabbage was the same, boring and overcooked filling. This was a good way of tasting three items. The fresh pitas and the real butter didn't make it into the picture.
Me and my partner went here on a cold winter's night, we were the only ones in the dining area while others enjoyed the bar. The entire building was nice, cozy and warm as the host sat us by a booth near the windows displaying festive holiday lights/decor. On to the food: The stuffed grape leaves and rice pilaf were both delicious & very filling. My partner got a lamb special which was so tender a knife was barely needed! It tasted juicy and aromatic. Our waitress was friendly and frequently checked in with us to fill up our drinks. I'm sure we will be back again soon
We are visiting from Florida and went for dinner. We were a party of 10. The food is out of this world! The drinks were so good too! Cute and very clean restaurant. Everything was fresh and delicious! If you want authentic cuisine, this is the spot! We have been to many places for Mediterranean food, in France, Iceland, Florida and this place hits over 5 stars and does not compare to anything we have had. By far THE BEST!! Sam was our server and he was amazing! He made our dinning experience even better! Because we never ran out of drinks and food came out super fast. He is a true professional , very attentive, friendly and polite! We had a big group and everyone was very happy with the way he treated us too! We totally recommend this place! For a nice lunch with the office colleagues, romantic dinner or to bring the family for a get together…it will not disappoint!
Shadi’s in North Andover has become one of our family's absolute favorite spots. The food is consistently incredible: fresh, flavorful, and full of authentic Lebanese and Mediterranean flavors. The hummus, grape leaves, kebabs, and falafel - all of it - are so delish. My son, who’s usually a very picky eater, and my wife, a vegetarian, also happily find dishes they love. But what really sets Shadi’s apart is the warm, welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. We’re so lucky to have a place like this nearby.
We tried Shadis for supper on Saturday at 7. Seated right away and the service was great. Food was delicious. We had the kibbe neyah app and it was great.
Love this place! The food is delicious and fresh. I love the homemade hummus, labneh, shrimp cocktail. Have never been disappointed and get takeout most every week. This place is a hidden gem.
