A sweet and silent place to have some good food
I think it important to note first and foremost that this restaurant is billed as a bistro. This is not a fancy restaurant and I think not really meant to be; however, that should not be taken to imply that the food is not top notch. We thoroughly enjoyed all of our selections. Our server was very friendly and provided knowledgeable and well received suggestions for our meal. The servings were more than ample and delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a great meal in a casual atmosphere.
MoreI had the small pizza.Guys!! This is amazing food!!All fresh toppings, a great crust, and plenty for 1 person--possibly 2!!I will definitely be back to try other dishes!!
MoreThe best Mediterranean food in Columbia, hands down. And I've eaten at all of them, several times each.Arabesque is the second best, no matter the dish.
MoreOver the years this restaurant has had multiple locations; the current version is a Mediterranean sandwich/small plate cafe. It is now on North Main. The food is good, with particularly tasty falafel, but the service was patchy. I recommend it overall.
MoreAwesome selection can't wait to try other things on the menu
We love Al Amir. Been following them around Columbia ever since I've lived here. Muhammad and his wife are so kind. Her desserts are incredible. We love the appetizer sampler, Lebanese pizza, and Greek salad, falafel. I loved when they were over on campus I would go regularly as a student. The new location is great.
MoreExcellent food, friendly and courteous staff. Couldn't ask for a better experience.
MoreFantastic Middle Eastern food. Highly recommend.
Excellent food. Muhammad is a very friendly and kind owner. Everything made from scratch and extremely healthy.
MoreGreat place. Great food. Pizza deal on Thursdays. Dont miss it.
It's was so deelishis can't wait to go back
Casual dining. Excellent food. Shawarma is soooooo tasty. All of the salads are delicious and of very generous size. Service is very friendly. They treat you like family.
MoreThe sign says Meditaranian Grill, with Nomi and other 9n small print above and below...a bit confusing. Pleasant and clean inside. Fabulous Food!!!
MoreIf you're really into Middle-Eastern cuisine, you'll know that it does not fit the fast food industry. Food has to be slowly marinated and cooked. This was one of the few times I really had a great meal at a restaurant. It is just like grandma's cooking. On top of that, the atmosphere will carry you across oceans into the heart of good-times. The staff are super friendly and they will always smile and treat you with respect. I loved this place and I will sure visit again whenever I am in Columbia, SC.
MoreThe food is so delicious, the bread baked freshly, the meat is juicy and tasty, the staffs are very kind, the owner of the restaurant names Mohammed is very kind and honest.
MoreWow! BEST hummus I've ever had. BEST falafel I've ever had. My co-workers and I ordered from Al-Amir's for lunch today and we were all in heaven! Food was ready just when they said it would be- took maybe 15min for 4 meals plus appetizers to be ready for pickup. All the food was AMAZING, 4 of us agreed and could not stop raving! Just wished I'd remembered to take a pic of our food before we inhaled it!Thanks!
MoreOh my gosh, I love this place! The food is SO GOOD!!! And they don't scrimp on the baklava!!
MoreFriendly staff and great food. A nice place to eat and talk.
New to this place but will definitely be returning. It's a block up, across from my office downtown. VERY convenient. They have a new regular!
MoreLackluster, better toubouli salad at other spots in town. Though Excellent salmon.
MoreFriendly and quick service. Fresh, tasty food. Pleasant, comfortable ambience.
Probably one of the best pizzas around, the atmosphere was really nice and the owner came by with free apps. Would definitely recommend.
MoreGreat service, great food, great location...
Nice place. Had the pizza. Was ok. Little overcooked on one side. Could have been better if it wasn't overcooked on that one side. Mind the pizza better by turning around in oven.
MoreThe food here was pretty good. I had the chicken shawarma wrap which I did enjoy. Although I did order my food to go I still noticed how was very warm it was inside. Overall though the food was good and the staff seemed pleasant.
MoreBest restaurant in Cottontown/Earlewood area, hands down. The food is fresh and delicious. I always feel welcome there because the owner is a great guy! The eggplant pizza is amazing and should not be missed.
MoreLunch was delicious, reasonably priced and even speedier than expected. Will definitely be back!
MoreDelicious food, attentive owner. A great dinner spot on NOMA.
Have never had this kind of food until they moved to Main Street. Food is awesome and the staff are so friendly! Don't be intimidated by the menu... Just ask the staff to explain! Also order ahead and get it to go!
MoreYummy food. A busy lunchtime is proof of their excellence.
We had kufta, veggie bowl, falafel, baba ganoush. Everything was delicious. Large portions, good service. Highly recommended.
MoreOne of my favorite places to eat in Columbia. Great owner and staff. Excellent food.
