OOZIE Mediterranean Restaurant — Restaurant in Edmond

I stopped by recently for a late lunch/early dinner. It was during the slow time and the owners were huddled around a table working out plans for a large upcoming catering event.

My first impression was how incredibly spotless this place was!!!

I ordered the Beef Shawarma Plate which came with hummus, pita bread, salad, hashwa and beef. It came out very quickly and everything was perfect and absolutely delicious; creamy hummus topped with a generous amount of olive oil, salad with one of the most delicious honey-mustard dressings I've ever had and, of course, expertly and perfectly seasoned hashwa and tender pieces of beef - all presented so beautifully that it could've been an art masterpiece. I asked about the salad dressing and was informed that it was Mama's secret recipe. I'm good with that - I just hope they bottle and sell it someday because I'll buy it by the gallon!!

Unfortunately, they are not open on the weekends, but do offer catering services during...
