Un lugar muy confortable para disfrutar comida libanesa

Best falafel I tried in Miami, freshly fried ! Really good service too. Cant wait to try the rest :)

OMG! I'm so happy I stumbled on this place. Amazingly fresh and delicious. Big portions. The chef, Basha, is a machine behind the counter. During peak time you can expect to wait because the demand is so high and Basha is in charge. You are guaranteed that the quality will meet your expectations. Basha is the only one preparing food. Love it! What a hidden gem! Super clean and cared for.

My friends and I had dinner at Helmand's on New Years day. It has been newly reopened and newly redecorated. Lovely interior and much more spacious looking. We pretty much all had a lamb dish of one sort or another and the food was delicious. Well prepared and nicely seasoned. Staff is gracious and accommodating. Good prices. Great neighborhood place. I highly recommend it.

The best shawarma in town

Buen lugar gracias por todo muy exquisito

What a fun spot to try something a little different. The Afghan cuisine Helmand Palace served was delicious, and they had a varied selection that I'd think would accomodate most taste buds!

Surprisingly, as a lamb lover, I didn't find the lamb dishes that appetizing. I actually dwelled on the expansive vegetarian selection (you really can't go wrong). I'd highly recommend getting a bunch of small things to share, so you can get the full experience. The house wine is also a steal of a price.

This is a great Lebanese spot toward the end of little Havana on 8th. The staff is extra nice and the food exquisite. The Lebanese music is catchy and relaxing. It represents the changes currently taking place in the city.

Temiz ve yemekler lezzetli ama alanlarn biraz gler yzl olmas gerekiyor mteriye kar

Fantastic spot. The gentleman that initially took care of me (who I believe was one of the owners) was kind of cranky and moody, but the lady that followed up and took over (who I believe was also an owner/wife) was just simply amazing. Kudos to her for making it a great overall experience. The food was superb and I will be coming back whenever I'm in the area.

Definitely one for the best Lebanese Cuisine in Miami. Thank you Samir Zeiour for the tremendous services and delicious food. Very authentic! Highly recommend

great shwarmas. authentic, great tasting food.

The shawarma wraps are great!!

Good restorant

SO delicious, authentic, and affordable. The owners are lovely as well!

haven't had such authentic Lebanese food in all of US.
AMAZING! Will eat here again.
The humus was perfect and shawarmas are spot on.

An absolute masterpiece. This feels like I am in downtown Riyadh enjoying such a great shawarma wrap. I highly recommend the chicken shawerma wrap arabe. Loved it .

The beef and lamb shawarma wrap arabia and the chicken shawarma wrap arabia are the best shawarmas Ive tried in America. I have never been let down by Lebanese cuisine. I really recommend it and it is halal which makes it even greater.

(Translated by Google) Very good food and variety of dishes!

The best place & the fresh foods Thank you

Amazing food!!

Hummus, Taboule, falafel and chicken shawarma excellent and tasty. Three of us ate and all were amazingly surprised on how delicious everything was.

Had an issue with the order and called back and they resolved immediately. They are close bye so no issues in picking up the missing item. They gave us a complimentary baklava which was also amazing.

Help support this business run by husband and wife as they are contributing to the community with great food from their heritage. Not easy now days to find help and maintain a business with COVID Even though it is the two of them and service can be slower than anticipated they are good people and have amazing food.

Great start to 2022.

Amazing food! Very clean

Growing up in Dubai I have been looking for places where i could get an authentic Arabic shawarma. Everything else has been a poor pale twisted American version of it. Definitely recommend it

This food is very tasty, my wife and I loved the falafel. Also the attention is excellent, thank you very much for such an excellent service.

Very unassuming place but the food was very good and the price was affordable. I am looking forward to coming back.

Excellent service and very tasteful shawarma ( beef ). The ingredients gave a delicious mix of flavors

Best shawarma in the area

The beef shawarma is delicious but the chicken there is too much of strong garlic in it.

All the workers in Shawarma Al-basha are doing their utmost to complete their work and to provide the best food to all their clients

I'm really surprised by some visitors who are making rude accusations against the employees of this restaurant, and in my personal opinion, they don't deserve to be a Shawarma Albasha family
And ask them to reconsider their behavior before considering other people's behavior..

Very delicious. Must try

(Translated by Google) Brutalll hadn't eaten shawuarma for at least 5 years and without a doubt this is the best I've ever eaten in my life
PS: the toasted bread gives it a magical touch

I go to this place all the time and I love it, delicious foods I always order the shawarma mix wrap. My mom and I love it, we also love the great service and how lovely the workers are. Every time I come here I feel welcomed and reconnected to my Arab roots.

Great service.... Food was a 8 /10 good but not wow... but I will certainly be back for a second try

Food was very good and fresh the owner and staff are very polite. Also the portions are big. Very nice and halal Lebanese shwarma an kebab. Most important HALAL for the Muslim brothers abd sisters.

Nice authentic shawarma. I highly recommend mixed Chicken and beef wrap. I already ate here like 5 times and every time was very good. Will keep going back. I recommend you go in person vs get delivery. Its better fresh off the grill.

Best falafel in Miami.

Excellent Lebanese/Mediterranean food. Fresh ingredients, cooked to order. Friendly service from the owner. Clean restaurant. Wide variety of meal choices. Good prices, delicious food. My new favorite spot for healthy food and tasty meals.

Shaherzad is a decent place to get a Persian meal, but it seems the quality of the experience and the value has gone down over the last few years. I've always made a point to come here whenever visiting LA, but I probably won't go back the next time.

I really love the flavor of the food! Today was my first visit and it wont be the last

Super clean restaurant.

Really good I highly recommend this place, the shawarma was very incredible

Super clean and delicious!

I have had a crazy amount of options for shawarma, moving from Toronto, but this place was awesome. Chicken Shawarma wrap...bless! Wrap was loaded with chicken - other places dont give you as much chicken. Hot sauce is really good too, ask for it.

Thanks Fatair Al Basha - I will be back to try the platter.

Delicious Lebanese food. Clean restaurant. Fresh ingredients and cooked to order. Friendly service from the owner. Best place to get a shawarma in Miami. I highly recommend it.

This is a hidden gem! I just found this restaurant because my hubby and I were craving real traditional shawarmas and we cant be any more happy! This is the real deal AMAZING

This is an amazing find and incredibly delicious!! Restaurant is beautiful and super clean. Staff is extremely nice and make you feel like family! The food is amazing and prepared perfectly!! I have been craving good shawarma for a while and found my new favorite spot! Will definitely be going back again..... and again and again!! I was going to take pictures but as soon as I sat down and opened up the food all I could do was eat!

This place slaps. Dont play yourself, get that extra garlic cream.

Best Shawarma ive had in a while. Falafel was also very fresh and tasty

Delicious Shawarma, you must to have patience because of waiting your order. The wait is worth it.

This place is absolutely amazing! The owner was very nice and provided great customer service. Food was prepared with so much care, and it tastes AMAZING! Highly recommend the beef shawarma

Ultra delicious

Amazing and delicious food

Vary Vary good food .the shawermh was Vary authentic.

Quite possibly the lightest & most delicious Falafel i've ever had but that doesn't even come close to their Rice & Lentils! SO delicious! I MUST get the recipe. How something so simple can taste this incredible is beyond me. Amazing depth of flavour including what I gather was either cinnamon or nutmeg & perfectly hearty & filling. The Hummus was good but the Baba Ganoush was SPECTACULAR! Great service, amazingly authentic Lebanese food on the East side of Calle Ocho! Hard to believe but absolutely worth dropping in. Can't wait to come back soon!

Amazing food! Super tasty. Great family business with amazing service. The restaurant is extremely clean. They also have in-house delivery service - no need to pay crazy Uber eat prices. We will DEFINITELY go back

Everything was well prepared and delicious. Prices are little high but worth every penny. Clean neat restaurant that offered excellent service. Fully halal an no alcohol served on the premises. A must try is the kebah.

I order food for the first time and I have to say what a surprise. Delivery was fast. No mistake in my order which is typical for that area. And the quality of the food was fresh, right temperature and tasty. I totally recommend this little niche I just discovered. They will definitely see more of my orders. Keep it up!!!

Fresh and tasty food with super fast delivery. Unlike other so called Mediterranean, Greek, Middle Eastern restaurant or franchise chain wannabe's, this place actually gets close to the real thing. Hope it'll keep it that way.
