Reviews Kamal's Middle Eastern Specialities

I only took off a star due to ordering the Zataar fries and getting regular fries for my order. My Chicken Shawarma was good, as expected, and certainly met my Mediterranean fix needs. The line at Kamala can get a little unruly, so keep an eye on the floor and follow the tape (please!). The cashier was nice and patient with me, and the meal was good. I’d go back for sure.

I wish I could give this place MORE than 5-stars! Located near a corner inside Reading Terminal Market, Kamal's is always busy but service is fast! My roommate and I are obsessed with the falafel platter. Considering the location, quantity of food, and quality, it's very reasonably priced. I blame this stall for being one of the reason's I haven't tried more places in RTM-- cause I keep coming back for their entrees and sides! Falafel are well-seasoned, "meaty," and you get about 4-decently sized rounds with the platter. It also comes with delicately smooth hummus (hommus), tabouli (tabouleh for the algorithm), a basic chopped salad, and pita bread. The textures of everything are perfect together! You can also grab a sides like zataar fries which are PACKED with seasoning and fried with firm exteriors and soft interiors. The staff are especially nice. There's one individual that is at the register most often (I believe their name is Hesham according to my order tickets). Every time I go, they are so friendly, welcoming, and very helpful when answering questions from anyone in line or random tourists needing directions. RTM is a hectic place for both staff and patrons, but Kamal's is always very nice to my roommate and me. Once when I visited with my partner, I was raving about how much I enjoy their food and staff without even realizing that another staff member (maybe someone working in the back?) was sitting next to me. He thanked me for my words which was so sweet!

Went here for the first time with my wife. Really delicious food, friendly service, clean, and overall would come back. She had the falafel pita and I had the shish kabob. I wish the meat was a little more tender but def not bad. We ordered a pineapple ginger smoothie that was also very fresh and tasty. Would recommend and come back. Family friendly place.

This place is great! I got a HUGE fruit and vegetable smoothie for around $11-12

We were very hungry when we entered Reading Terminal market. We went through aisle after aisle of food stores and settled for Kamal's because of the Adam who is one of the family members who owns and runs the store. His personality stands out who is very knowledgeable woth the food menu and can accommodate all special request. They have been in RTM for 28 years and offers amazing quality food at affordable prices. We ordered Lamb Gyro, Saturday pie, specially smoothie, Mini Rose Cashew baklava and Chocolate and Cashew Halava. We will definitely come again and broadcast referrals how good they are.

Came across Kamals in the busy Reading Terminal Market. I had a pressed juice the first day and came back the next morning for a smoothie. Everything was super fresh and the employees were generous enough to give recommendations.

After eating so many delicious, rich foods while in Philly it was great to have a fresh, delicious, green juice! We also got a huge brick of halva to take home to NY and my family loved it! The service was great too! Thank you.

The absolute best natural juices made here! Had an absolutely delicious and giant carrot and beet juice I really liked. Highly recommended!
