Located in the Bevo Mill neighborhood in St. Louis, Majeed Mediterranean Restaurant had great food with a casual, homey atmosphere.
As soon as my friends and I walked into the restaurant, we knew it would be good. There were about 12 tables inside, and all had wide, comfortable chairs with cushions. The whole room was lit by beautiful Turkish lamps.
There were only two servers, meaning that service was a little slower than normal restaurants, but I believe that serves the restaurant’s purpose. It was wonderfully catered towards conversation with the people you come to the restaurant with. No music was playing, and the service was slow yet kind.
We spent about an hour and a half in the restaurant eating appetizers and our main courses. We ordered the most delicious falafel I’ve ever had with an even better garlic sauce.
For my main course, I ordered the chicken shawarma sandwich with a side of fries. The shawarma was not the best I’ve ever had, but it was still great nonetheless.
My friend let me try her spicy chicken curry and rice, which was even better. The chicken was falling off the fork because it was so tender, and the rice was surprisingly refreshing.
I only ended up spending about $15 for my whole meal and the tip, which was a lot less than I was expecting for the food we got.
I will definitely be returning and trying more menu items.
