Al Ameer

This place is Mediterranean meets Middle Eastern, and it’s a great example of what those two cultures have to offer as far as hospitality. It’s like home—I get the same feeling I get when I’m in grandma’s house. You can get a spinach pie for $1.50, so it’s very economical, but like I said, what makes this spot special is the people. I get the chicken kofta on the regular, but you definitely can’t go wrong with the lamb shawarma either.
