Omgosh i can’t say enough about the food! First time trying this type of food! I’m sold everything was delicious tried a little bit of lots of food! Nothing disappointing!!! We will totally be back! Oh the desserts also outstanding!
Ordered takeout on 6/20/23 and it was wonderful, again!
We came in for an early dinner, maybe 2 months ago (or something like that). It happened that the owner (who served us) was running on no sleep due to his wife having just had a baby. He was the most delightful man and we had a wonderful conversation with him. He did the cooking and it was delicious and he even treated us to some little sweet treats to celebrate the birth of his baby. We will be back soon and we also have been to Alquds in Albuquerque (which is also very good)! Thanks for being a wonderful Rio Rancho oasis!
I have to give credit where credit is due...
Muhammad took this venue and LEVELED IT, UP! Seriously, my guy wakes up at 4am DAILY to make the pita bread fresh from scratch. I had the lamb kebob with hummus... PHENOMINAL! Then a lil coffee and some pistachio baklava for dessert... 😗👌
I'm a fan. Alquds, thank you for the wonderful dining experience -- wishing you continued success!
So excited to have an Alquds on this side of town, it was one of the few restaurants I would go out of my way to visit on the east side. There isn’t a bad thing on the menu, reasonably priced, incredible service and consistency.
First of all I wanted to say how cherished we felt as soon as we walked in the door. I had only heard stories of Mediterranean hospitality from movies and stories told to me as a kid and for the first time ever I felt that when I went to Alquds. Our server was so kind and attentive. Despite my own trials ordering from their menu the way I would have ordered from the previous restaurant he amended our order until it had EVERYTHING that we wanted in it.
The real treat for me was this: they make the best hummus I've had since I was a child. My grandmother and I frequented a Mediterranean bakery in Gainesville, Florida that specialized in only pita and hummus. That was always my best reference for authentic hummus and pita my entire life and I never tasted it to that level of quality again until yesterday when I tried Alquds Hummus. The texture was the best I've ever had. Period. The tahini was so balanced and the olive oil was the most wonderfully earthy and spicy flavor I prefer over fruity oil.
The Chicken Tawook and rice was amazing. I couldn't have been happier. But to finish it all off the pistachio baklava made everyone in our party melt with satisfaction. Alquds is truly your authentic portal to the Mediterranean. I will be going there again VERY soon.
