Once you enter this restaurant you feel antique all around you perfected including dirt and spider webs in some corners. When the food came it was worth the drive to visit this place. Waitress was very attentive and helpful. Enjoyed my time there.

I recently dined at this Middle Eastern restaurant, and I must say, it was an exquisite culinary journey! From the delectable kabab chicken and beef bursting with flavorful spices to the perfectly cooked rice that left my taste buds dancing, every bite was a delight. Their tea is a must try; it’s fresh and you can prepare it to your liking. But the culinary adventure didn't stop there; the fresh fries were a true indulgence, and the hummus was so fresh it felt like it was just made moments before serving. Plus, their homemade pita bread added an extra touch of authenticity to the meal. Despite its popularity, the service remained top-notch even on busy nights, ensuring a seamless dining experience. While parking may be tight, the option of valet parking for a reasonable fee makes it hassle-free.With ample seating both indoors and outdoors, along with a casual ambiance, this spot has become one of my favorites in Texas. I cannot wait to return for another round of their delicious offerings. Highly recommended!

Great spot for hookah with decent service and great food. The beef shwarma plate with fries is a great dish. Lots of open space and patio area although it gets loud as there's a playground for kids.

The Arabic coffee we ordered was incredibly delicious and outstanding. The flavor and aroma of the coffee were simply unmatched. I highly recommend everyone to try this coffee!

Tasty Food Ranush restaurant offers delicious food, but falls short in terms of ambience. The dishes are flavorful and well-prepared, pleasing the taste buds with every bite. However, the restaurant's worn-out appearance and dated decor detract from the overall dining experience. If you're solely focused on the food and can overlook the lackluster atmosphere, it's worth a visit.
