Salam Deli Mart — Local services in Federal Way

First off I'll just start by saying I am American and not from the middle east. However I've been on a middle eastern food kick lately, trying all kinds of different things and making some new recipes. There are several shops along Pacific Hwy that sell various types of middle eastern foods. I tried this place tonight because they make pizza and kabobs. They are both excellent. The pizza is unlike any other flavors I've tried before, yet still familiar enough to most American style pizzas. It came with ketchup which I found interesting and wouldn't typically use this condiment on pizza, however on this particular pizza I just added a little and it was surprisingly good actually. Somehow the tanginess of the ketchup went with this pizza. Really amazing flavors all around. Perfectly cooked dough, nice and chewy on the crust with lots of crispy bits of cheese.

The kabobs are filling my whole car and house with good smells right now. These are not the same as typical kabobs you might find at a middle eastern style food truck. These are Chapli Kebabs and they are flat, burger shapped patties rather than chunks of meat that are cooked on a skewer. Comes with nice freshly baked bread, very soft and saw lots of people coming into the store just to buy this bread as well.

They have a pretty good selection of all kinds of other random stuff and lots of dried fruits and nuts as well as some Lebanese style cheeses, homemade yogurt, homemade pickles and other things. I don't think Americans typically shop here but they were very kind towards me. You will have to ask them about ordering the food as there really was no menu or anything that I saw. I think most people going here already know what they have/want type of situation, so I'm posting pics of what I ordered just for reference.

Seriously good food and...

1/5 Stars - Worst Experience at Salam Deli Mart

I recently had the misfortune of shopping at Salam Deli Mart in Federal Way, and I must say it was the worst experience I've ever had.

Firstly, the prices were inconsistent and always higher than what was displayed. But the worst part was the food quality. I purchased a whole chicken on Sunday, and when I asked the staff if it was fresh, they assured me it was made just 30 minutes ago.

However, when I got home and started eating, I discovered black ants in my food. I was appalled and immediately took the food back to the store. The staff was careless and unapologetic, offering no solution or compensation.

Instead, they downplayed the issue, saying it was "not a big problem." I was shocked and disappointed by their lack of concern for customer satisfaction and food safety.

I would not recommend Salam Deli Mart to anyone. The prices are unfair, the food quality is subpar, and the customer service...
