Diwan - Cambridge

The food was fantastic and the staff were very welcoming! I tried the shawarma, and it was beyond my expectations. The quality was outstanding for the price.

The food here is absolutely amazing—without a doubt the best shawarma sandwich in the area! Everything is fresh, and the owners are very welcoming.

This restaurant serves the finest Mediterranean cuisine in Cambridge! The baklava is absolutely delightful and the most genuine I've ever tasted. We also sampled the baba ghanoush and the chicken shawarma platter, both of which were exceptional. I definitely intend to return repeatedly. They also provide shisha (hookah) for those interested, although I don’t personally partake in it, so I didn’t give it a try.

My second visit to this restaurant will definitely be my last. I went with four friends, and we experienced an exceptionally long wait for our hookah, despite the restaurant being almost empty. Frustrated by the delay, we approached what seemed to be the owner—a young man—and asked for a refund. To my shock, he responded, "Come back later for your refund." I couldn't believe his attitude; did he think we were foolish? We ended up having to argue with him and his father, who didn't speak English, just to get our money back. Throughout this entire ordeal, we never received our hookah or any drinks. After much hassle, we finally got our refund, and as we were leaving, he audaciously said, "Never come back here." Rest assured, I have no intention of returning; his arrogance was off-putting. This was the worst and strangest customer service I've ever experienced. Additionally, the place was dirty, both inside and out. I strongly advise steering clear of this restaurant.

The shisha here is incredible! Their hummus is the best I've ever had. It's definitely a place you should check out!
