Ghadir Meat & Restaurant

June 17, 2020

I really like the food at Ghadir Meat & Restaurant, but the last visit to Ghadir wasn't great. This time around, I called ahead and they made my order in time, but I was rather frustrated by the lack of social distancing in the restaurant (even at an off-peak time like 2pm). The store had helpfully drew arrows to direct the flow of traffic, but people totally ignored it and most people didn't wear masks either. Considering the small enclosed space inside the store, it's very difficult to avoid/distance from people walking in all directions. My order was already done, but it took me a while before I could safely walk to the counter (at a distance from other people) to pick it up. 

Ghadir Plate with two chicken shawarma sandwiches $15.99

The portion of fries has decreased! The sandwiches were still pretty good, but we were hoping for enough fries to help us finish the garlic sauce container (that comes with the chicken below).

BBQ Whole Chicken $18.99

So tasty and delicious!

Many restaurants have moved to a take-out or delivery model during the COVID-19 pandemic, and Ghadir is one of them. We called our order in advance and just came by to pay and pick up, but they forgot our order until we got there and then proceeded to make it. 

Barbecue chicken and shish tawook platter with fries, hummus, turnips, pickles and tons of garlic sauce.

There were more fries in the sandwich combo than the shish tawook platter. However, there was an extra portion of garlic sauce in the platter box. I think the better deal is the sandwich combo (since it's cheaper and you get more fries). The shish tawook is pretty yummy, but it was a lot of chicken to eat.

One barbecue chicken meal with a sandwich (wrap in the middle), fries and drink combo

We got the sandwich and fries combo mostly for the extra order of fries (so we could eat them with garlic sauce - Ghadir's garlic sauce is TO DIE FOR). 

Barbecue chicken meal

Delicious whole cooked chicken - flattened and cooked over a charcoal fire. The meat was really tender and juicy and it was seasoned really well.

The sandwiches look kind of small by just by themselves since they've also been pressed and grilled. 

The chicken sandwich is pretty good. 

BBQ Whole Chicken $18.99

Flattening the chicken and grilling it over the fire is pretty awesome. The meat was well seasoned and it tasted great with the charred skin from the open grill. It was also served with a TON of garlic sauce, mixed pickles and a few pitas. Definitely enough to feed a family of 4 with some leftover. Great value for money.

Ghadir Mini Plate with one shish tawook, one beef cubes and one kofta skewer $18.99

The chicken was really nicely done and the kofta was pretty good too. It's a good sampler plate if you don't know which spiced meat you would like better.

Ghadir Mixed Shawarma Plate with beef and chicken, fries, salad and pita

Excellent plate! They gave us a huge portion of fries and sauces (garlic, hummus and hot sauce) and it also comes with pita, so you can make your own sandwich. 

Tawook plate with fattoush salad

The chicken was perfectly seasoned and really tender and juicy. The fattoush salad had a strange dressing I didn't really like, I'll stick to their regular salad in the future. 

Zaatar and Cheese Manakeesh

I wasn't sure about their zaatar mix, but it grew on me.

Mixed Shawarma platter with fries, garlic sauce, tahini, hummus, pickled radish, salad and pita

The beef had a kind of gamey taste to it, but the chicken was good (some parts of the chicken were kind of dry). The garlic sauce is AMAZING, especially with fries. 

Lychee basil seed drink was really good, but definitely on the super sweet side. I've never tried basil seed drinks before this. 

Cheese Manakeesh

It was so pretty and it was actually pretty good as a snack.
