We have been to Hummus Bar & Grill several times, and I think the food here is pretty good.Sometimes it is a hit-or-a-miss, and this is something you need to be aware of when going here.You could either have a wonderful meal (as many reviews show) or you might end up disappointed with some of the dishes you order. I have had quite a few different menu items here, and here are my thoughts: the hummus here is amazing.I have absolutely no complaints, and if you get the hummus with beef or mushrooms it’s even more amazing! This is a must when visiting.They bring out a massive pita bread - soft, warm, crunchy on the edges and slightly chewy in the middle - and you could have 10 of these, they’re addicting.Another dish that is out-of-this-world is the Earthy Baladi Eggplant - I don’t like eggplant at all (never would willingly order it), but the way they prepare this is just amazing.It doesn’t taste like eggplant at all, and the sweet flavor is just awesome.This is another thing you should definitely order.There are many more things I could recommend, but I generally have found the appetizers, specialty plates and salads to be consistently better than other things on the menu.Rice is great (es expected). Their Liver & Onions is really good if you enjoy this type of dish (I have family who always gets this and they say it’s really good - better than most places), and most beef dishes are really good as well.They know how to cook beef here!! I haven’t tried other meats like their lamb and Merguez sausages yet, so I can’t comment on them (though I’d assume they would be good as well based off other reviews), but the chicken is less-than-spectacular in my opinion.For instance, I recently got the chicken shawarma, and it was very bland, dry, and just tasted like a bunch of shredded chicken with little spice on a plate.I can’t recommend this dish - definitely get something else other than the chicken shawarma.There could be better chicken dishes, but I’ve just stuck with beef and had a much better time. All in all, this is still a solid place.The chicken dishes might not be the best (and it’s entirely possible I’ve just had them on off-days and they’re not representative of what the restaurant normally cooks), but many other things on the menu make up for it - I definitely would say Hummus Bar & Grill is worth going to, especially if you’re craving Israeli food/Mediterranean food.I will continue to visit and I will continue to revise my review as I try more things!
I got the "keep em coming" salads ($11) and a falafel pita ($15) and everything was DIVINE.The salads are unlimited and comes with a huge laffa bread so even after stuffing my face, I was only able to finish 4 salads and half the bread, i didnt even touch my pita and fries.You are able to refill all the salads and take them to go! With the salads, bread, pita, and fries, It fed me for an additional 4 meals. Place is pricey but if you order the right stuff.It'll feed you for DAYS.
I’m always on the lookout for incredible hummus and shawarma.And did I find BOTH here at Hummus Bar & Grill.I had the shawarma hummus plate and it was EXACTLY what I was craving.Creamy fresh hummus with tasty chicken shawarma on top.I am in heaven.The restaurant is also incredibly clean with a kind and attentive staff.The pita bread was bigger than my plate and so delicious.I enjoyed the complimentary pickles and cabbage salad served when I first sat town.I also found it to be reasonably priced for all that I received.A visit to Hummus Bar & Grill will not disappoint.
