"Yasmine is our favorite spot for a quick lunch or dinner in Union Market, and you can usually find a seat at the ultra-casual spot’s bar or high-top shared tables. Their chicken shawarma, topped with toum and tahini, is a popular pick, but even just a side of pita chips covered in za’atar is reason enough to stop by. While Yasmine’s food travels remarkably well for take-out, it’s worth dining in to try their housemade limonata with crushed mint, since it’s only available in person." - madeline weinfield

"Chef Chris Morgan is switching up all his menus as of late, serving up his Lebanese shawarma and kebabs in new fluffy pita pockets filled with traditional street food fillings during lunch in bustling Union Market, Kitchen Collective, and The Heights food halls. Choose between chicken, beef, lamb, or falafel in pitas matched with the perfect mix of herbs, pickles, and sauces to stuff into a warm pita." - Emily Venezky
"Yasmine’s, which has its own seating, is a great place to watch people come and go while you’re here. Luckily, the Lebanese spot also has the Shish Taouk: a simple, classic wrap made with charred chicken, french fries, pickles, and garlic—it’s something you’ll find yourself unconsciously craving days later. If you don’t want to stick around, it’s makes for a perfect on-the-go sandwich." - tristiana hinton, omnia saed
"Yasmine, a Lebanese stall at Union Market, has cracked the code for good fun: kebabs and cocktails. The smell from the grill at this Lebanese shop wafts through the air at food hall so much so that you can’t help but follow the scent. Once there, you’ll find a fast-casual restaurant behind a wooden bar occupied by businessmen still in their suits and couples grabbing a quick bite. The shish taouk is superb. The simple but classic wrap is made with charred chicken, french fries, pickles, and garlic. It’s the perfect sandwich on the go and something you’ll find yourself unconsciously craving days later. Pair it with the apricot sour which flawlessly balances savory and sweet for a flawless meal. " - omnia saed
