Food was good. Several of the other customers were “smoking” some sort of large vaping device. It made the whole restaurant strongly smell like incense. If you have a sensitive nose you probably don’t want to eat inside. Lunch specials were a good value and even included a small piece of Baklava. FYI the red sauce that is served in a little side container is super spicy, be careful. The white sauce is the standard garlic sauce. Not as garlicky as most but still pretty good.

I could go on for a milenia about our experience at this place, but I’ll just hit the core turnoffs in this scandalous review. First and foremost, my wife and I brought our pup with us. We were told that we would have to sit outside. Fair enough, thank goodness the sun decided to show us some mercy on that day. The waiter came out and asked what we would like to drink. The waiter was very visibly, not enjoying our pups presence. Which is just fine by me, I mean, he’s high energy and can be a lot, but I kept my little dude near me so he wouldn’t bother the waiter. Still nothing to cause any real displeasure. After placing our drink order, the waiter came back empty-handed just to ask us what it was that we had asked for. I later found out he was the only one taking care of all the customers within the establishment. I’ll give him some leeway on that despite the fact that he took so long to come back. My wife and I contemplated leaving. Ultimately, that’s what we should’ve done. Lesson learned. The food arrived, and after tasting it, we sure wished it hadn’t. The hummus tasted tired. Have you ever heard of such a thing. The hummus literally tasted as if it was tired of being delicious, so it just decided to show up to work without any sense of purpose. The toum (Leabanses Garlic Sauce) was very simply not toum. It was an imposter toum that was designed for those who simply have no idea what toum is or what it should taste like. The (imposter) toum tasted like a slab of Mayo that was mixed in with a miniscule amount of chopped garlic. Personally, the lack of appreciation for toum was enough for me. They should be ashamed to have put that toum on a plate and serve it to customers. The toum rant is officially over, so let’s move on to the food itself. I ordered the chicken gyro, and my wife ordered the mixed Kebab plate. The gyro came with fries that were soggier than a loaf of bread at the bottom of the ocean. The Kebab meat itself was so dry that I thought I was going to cough up sand. The food was horrendous and, quite frankly, an insult to all Mediterranean and Middel Eastern cuisine. Additionally, just before finishing our meal, the waiter reappeared with a small plate of raw chicken and a bowl of water for our pup. He didn’t ask for permission, nor if it would be okay. He simply dropped off the “treat” (I used that word loosely) and proceeded to return back inside. For those who don’t know why, you should not give a dog raw chicken. Why? The answer is salmonella, which is precisely why we did not appreciate the gesture. The chicken also smelled dated, and to be honest, it just seemed like he was trying to dispose of some old meat at the expense of our pups health. Ultimately, for those who have managed to read this far, you can say I’m overreacting, but if it wasn’t made apparent by now, our experience at Mawal was a very poor one indeed. For those that are still dead set on checking this place out, you should also know that they offer hookah and the atmosphere is about as poor as it gets.

Edit: I see from reviews that others didn’t get their receipts and were being charged a 15% gratuity fee for dining in. From my calculations, I must have been charged this 15% fee plus something additional. Management should remove that option on the register and require all guests get a printed bill.

Webster/Clear Lake is a crowded market for Mediterranean, but Mawal manages to carve its own definitive space with its variety, quality, and hookah availability. The service is typically a little slow, so it’s not the place to go in a hurry, but the food more than makes up for any slowness. They are priced extremely fairly and offer up a great deal of food in return. It was scrumptious. Their Turkish coffee is excellent, the humus is clearly fresh, I love the mawal plate, it’s all so good!!

We’re vegan and we ordered 4 falafel each, hummus, baba ganoush and a greek salad to take out. So they do have vegan options, sadly not good and not food safe. As you can see from the photo they put chopped green pepper in a greek salad and they clearly hadn’t cleaned it, as it still had the label on it! Their menu states iceberg lettuce for a greek salad, they put romaine, the olives were not pitted (which they need to be for a salad, if I wanted to pit olives I could have made a salad at home!). They’d clearly just taken a handful out of the jar and tossed them on top, some even had stalks. The cucumber was bitter, and ruined whatever was left of the salad. Falafels were dry, hummus and baba ganoush were drenched in oil, on top, and not flavourful (barely any garlic or lemon in the hummus, same for the baba ganoush). Really disappointing, as we live nearby and hoped it would be our late night place. They did have people smoking hooka inside and the outside marble tables were pretty.
