The Best Middle Eastern in the Twin Cities | Eater Twin Cities

"Selby Avenue’s Zait and Za’atar blends Middle Eastern and South Asian tradition with a menu that spans multiple regions. Don’t miss the fresh falafel, made over multiple days and served as an appetizer, sandwich, or plate. For a hearty meal, try the chicken shawarma plate served with turmeric rice and drizzled with tahini. The za’atar fries need no ketchup as they’re generously seasoned with a flavorful Middle Eastern spice mix. Pair any dish with a refreshing homemade lemonade, available in flavors like masala, rose, strawberry, peach, and passionfruit." - Matthew Awad
