Delcious fresh authentic middle eastern food! Highly recommend!! Lots of menu options. Ordered the beef shawarma, packed with... flavor. I wasn't even hungry and ended up devouring the entire plate. Must give this food truck a try and see for yourself! Read more
Refuses or ignores serving women, females You have very good food. We thought it was a mistake the first time in Mariposa Park,... tried it again near the Bosque river. Same women I witnessed both times. We will give it a try 1 more time. Your food isdelicious. I don?t take this lightly Read more
Absolutely OBSESSED with Mama Zahira! Riadh is the friendliest, most genuine guy. We got the falafel pita, combo plate, dolmas,... and baklava. Everything was made fresh to order and came out hot. Some of the best falafel I've ever had, and the dolmas wereseasoned so well. The salad inside the pita and on the side of the combo was made with fresh, ripe, delicious veggies & herbs. Icame to Albuquerque from Salt Lake City, and will be taking an order of fresh pita back home with me. I cannot recommend MamaZahira Foodies enough. Read more
The only thing better than a picnic in the park is a picnic in the park with freshly cooked food. The only way to top that is to... make the picnic a little exotic. Grabbing a lunch from Mama Zahira Foodies checks all the boxes. One cannot beat the simplebeauty of Mariposa Basin Park as a dining room, especially since we're still under social distancing guidelines. Mama Zahira'sfamily brings food right to this lovely park every day, giving them the best dining room in all of Albuquerque. Even if you'renot staying in the park to eat, the food is worth a stop for take-out. The falafel are crispy on the outside, tender in themiddle, and savory in every part. We think we might have even detected a subtle kick of heat. They pair perfectly with thecreamy, salty hummus (which if you ask us is the apotheosis of the garbanzo bean). Raz and I agree that the spiced basmati riceis the best we've had in Albuquerque. Raz can't eat corriander leaf, so I got all the salad on the combo plate to myself, and Iwas very pleased with the bright, slightly spicy flavor of super-fresh tomato, onion, cucumber, and a few other chopped veggiesthat made up the simultaneously exotic and very homey dish. At $10 the combo plate is a generous meal for one that will fill youup from starving, or a reasonable portion to split between two people with lighter appetites, so it's a great value. If you'regoing for serious grab-and-go, we also highly recommend the Falafel Pita, which is a perfect proportion to fill one person, andvegetarian to boot, so you can feel good about eating healthy while taking your taste buds on a luxury cruise. We were reallyhappy to find this local, family business feeding the West Side and can't wait to see every one here! Read more
Very, very flavorful food at reasonable prices from a mighty friendly owner. Flavors can be intense, like garlicky hummus or... baba ganoush & his spicy falafel, but are Oh So Good!!! Grilled ground meat kebabs are actually one of his milder tastingfoods, but the meat is astonishingly smooth & tender. Baklava pieces are a high percentage of walnut filling that isdelightfully flavored with rosewater. His yogurt drink is tangy, slightly sour, & quite pungent with a yeasty fermented taste.It's not to be missed if you like different & complex flavors in your food. Read more

Definitely give this place a chance, you will not regret it. I've grown to crave it. His food is amazing and has always been... nothing short of respectful. Regarding some of these negitive reviews, they speak for themselves. Myself, I can appreciate hisresponses to the obvious Karen's. Read more
