Amir's GrillNovember 7, 2013Check out our lunch and dinner deals! Fresh Falafel, All-Natural Locally Raised Chicken for our Sandwiches, Salads, and char broiler. Locally Raised Kobe Beef Burgers on Pita. $5 pints of Local Beer
Chris EvansMay 31, 2015Seriously a great option around Columbia, good portions and the ingredients are always pretty good quality. Falafel is nothing that will blow your mind, but is a solid lunch option.
Serious EatsAugust 30, 2013Luckily for the Columbia crowd, Amir's is there to serve your needs. But while Amir's does cater to its audience, its flavorful Lebanese food goes beyond typical falafel sandwiches.- L. T.July 17, 2015So inexpensive and not crowded. Ditch the line at chipotle and try something different. Also, they have a bathroom, outlets, and plenty of tables.
some nice lunch options around columbia campus. I like to get lunch special for falafel sandwich with sweet potato fries as side.
Eli GeminderMarch 14, 2013The Toasted Chicken Wrap is an amazing garlic bomb with french fries and pickled turnips. I crave this food item frequently.
The #1 is delicious and filling! Falafel sandwich, a side, and sugar cane soda for only $6?! Love this place!
hummus platter w/ extra tomatoes = perfect lunch portion. baklawa is delightfulness! and they make yummiest hummus around, not too salty, not too oily. (the olives have pits!)- Eli GeminderMarch 26, 2013The toasted chicken wrap is intense and pretty fantastic, especially with a dab of the green habanero sauce.
Great food! Just had. Falafel, fries, and soda for less than $8
Jesse BagelsOctober 2, 2014Got the chicken shawarma wrap, except it wasn't shawarma it was totally flavorless. Plus watery hummus. They may tout organic meat but they sure don't know how to dress it. Not worth the price too.
This used to be a good lunch option but the quality has gone WAY downhill as prices have gone up. They take forever, always screw up orders, and takeout is a mess. Avoid.
Get a receipt! Just ordered and paid for a burrito and got a "pita sandwich" and couldn't do anything about it because I didn't get a receipt. Good food, but not worth double the price...
Christine EspinozaFebruary 2, 2014no more chicken & rice platter, no more pickled beets (!!!) just a shell of its former self. :(
SFebruary 14, 2015The portions are extremely small, and the chicken tastes like it can straight out of a can. Go to the halal cart.
