Wonderful hommus and lamb shish kebab. Beautiful atmosphere and the wine selection tops it all!!! Will bring my family again and again.

George, that was the best shwarma I have ever eaten. The meat was so deliciously spiced that I couldn't stop eating it. Everything I have eaten at your restaurant is of the highest quality, excellently seasoned and prepared. I look forward to my next meal at El Ameer. Sincerely, Richard

Best Mediterranean food I've ever had! There vegetarian platters are amazing. So glad there is a local place with such great vibe, music, drink specials, and meals!

This place was awesome.. service was so good and they really care about making their customers happy through good and fresh food. I called to have delivery and the food was sooo fresh.. Humus was banging too and they have this homemade dipping sauce which was awesome.. i\'m definitely ordering again..

Had a wonderful lunch at El Ameer - the Lamb shish kebab was tender and delicious, served on a platter with rice, hummus, and roasted peppers. This came with a nicely garnished green salad, and fresh pita with olives & dipping oil. The wait staff was very attentive. The owner stopped by with samples of pickled turnips & cucumbers (very tasty!) and a scrumptious tidbit of angus beef kebab. The Turkish coffee was strong and sweet, and the chocolate mousse cake was light, smooth and creamy, simply delicious! I especially appreciated the extra attention the entire staff showered upon my elderly mom, singing "Happy Birthday" and wishing her many many more. All in all, a wonderful place, highly recommended!

Found El Ameer in Enjoy section of paper and tried on Saturday night. Obviously, others had read the glowing review. George and Deborah had the whole family working that night to handle the crowd. They couldn't have been friendlier and served us a great meal. I went back tonight for a delicious falafel sandwich. Tell your friends.

Was very excited to try ElAmeer out and was very disappointed. The meat and chicken had no flavor. The salads also had none. It all very bland. I have tried out many mediterranean foods and this was a disappointment. Very friendly atmosphere and service but the food is overpriced and very bland.
