I've been a customer here for more than 2 years, and they have not once disappointed when it comes to food or service! If anything, the quality and taste keeps getting better. Halal food! Their chicken shawarma wrap and kebab platters are the best!! The quantity is unbelievably good! Must visit restaurant in Nebraska

A hidden gem that you have to check out! This restaurant has friendly service, where you order at the counter, then pay after you eat at the counter. The employees are genuinely happy to have you there, and will guide you through the menu if you need it. The portions are massive and you WILL have leftovers. My favorite is the beef kebab. If you order something with rice, you'll get less protein, but the rice is delicious! Give this place a shot if you haven't been. Truly one of the best places you can go in Lincoln!

Never heard of this place (moved to Lincoln 8 months ago) and saw on the Lincoln subreddit a post that almost everyone recommended this location. Decided on this place for lunch went in and spoke to a kind gentlemen and went with his recommendation - got a beef shawarma sandwich. I also got baba ganoush as thats a go to for me. This was 10/10 and will recommend this to everyone looking for a great spot to eat. Will for sure be back, thanks!

So I have been coming to Fattoush since it’s opening and never had the chance to put a review. Absolutely the best food in town and with great price and super customer service. People come from Omaha to this place. Keep it up Fattoush !

Great little place! Great food and service! So great I brought my wife on my 2nd visit. The portions are huge so consider splitting a meal unless you're super hungry. The fuchsia stuff is pickled turnip; don't be scared, try it!

We are out of towner’s and googled the best place to eat out at. Fattoush came up tops. The interior is nicely done. Ample seating in the form of booths throughout the restaurant provides some privacy and makes it feel more intimate. We ordered Chicken Shawarma plate, Beef Kebab with rice, Eggplant Soup and Lamb Shank with Rice. The food was delicious. It’s a shame the Lamb Shank was tough. Had a hard time using a a plastic spoon so had to ask for a knife. Unfortunately that didn’t help. The flavour was delicious but I had to leave more than half as it was inedible. My turmeric coloured fingers are proof of that! However all the other dishes went down a treat. I would have preferred proper plates (instead of paper) and metal cutlery instead of plastic. The portions are huge and didn’t fit on the plates. I spent the majority of the time cleaning the rice off the table. That said I would love to go back on my next visit to Lincoln and try something else or give the Lamb Shank another try. Definitely worth a visit as everything tasted yummy and the staff are brilliant.

Always loving going in enjoying Fattoush! It is one of the best restaurants that we go to. You can never go wrong with the Gyro Plate with Fries (Their Fries are amazing), Shawarma is a great go-to, and my personal favorite as recommeded by the owner, #27-Shawarma Special Plate (Chicken or Beef)... I have had both and they are amazing. The food is never a let down no matter what you order from the menu. I have tried over half of it, and I have never been disappointed. 10/10 must try if you are in Lincoln.

Amazing food. The owner is very generous. Free bottled water and free pita! He is also very welcoming and makes you feel right at home. The servings are huge. It's so hard to find a good schwarma, especially in the Midwest. This place is a must visit for any foodie.
