We went by the reviews and had an overall poor experience. The potato starter is supposed to be potato, garlic, coriander and lemon, but, lemon was too much and the dish was extremely sour - inedible. But, the horror didn't stop there. The server offered to take it back, key is offered. No replacement was offered. To our shock, when we sighted the bill, we were charged for this item. Things get worse here - upon asking, they said once cooked and served, we would be billed - that means, even if inedible food is prepared and served, we have to accept it - wow - the menu doesn't say, lemon is 99% of all the ingredients! We pressed further and the lady spoke rudely saying that we only bought 3 dishes - well, we had appetite only for that and by the way, the food was just about ok, not too delicious to reorder or so. Where is it written by them to notify the customers that you must take x number of dishes, valued at x euros? You can't force me to eat more than what I want. Forget apology, speaking in a courteous manner etc., she just rudely asked someone to give us a refund, as if it's a favor or alms....

I had a chicken shawarma sandwich arriving in the city and sat down for a vegetarian plate on the way out. The sandwich was quite thin, personally I find a bit too little humus or salad inside (some fries or grilled veggies would be nice). But the chicken was tender and flavorful. The plate I had was generously portioned. Probably would be nice to have more fattoush to refresh between the nutty spreads. The falafel was so-so, a bit dry and no herbal flavor. The cheese fatayer had too much dough and i can’t taste the labne. The spinach fatayer was better. The wine leaf wrap was nice, usually too sour for me but these ones were good. Lebanese tea didn’t have the orange blossom taste. The chicken liver was not there both times unfortunately. It’s very good but...
Read moreHoumous & Co in Strasbourg is an absolute must-visit for anyone who loves fresh, flavorful Middle Eastern cuisine. The owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a warm atmosphere right from the start. The service is fast and efficient, making it perfect for a quick meal or a casual outing.
The place has a limited seating arrangement, so during busy evening hours, they wisely suggest opting for takeaway, which is still just as delicious.
One great tip is to mention your preferred sauce and taste profile when ordering—whether you like it mild, spicy, or extra garlicky—so they can customize the dish to your liking, which really enhances the experience.
On top of that, the prices are very reasonable, making it excellent value for the quality of...
