I got the meat pie *didn't sound very apetizing) but it was actually really good! I really liked it exept the amount of food I got was not a lot, so had to spot by dq for something to fill me up. Overall, really good!

Food:

I love Kassab's. Great food. The sleek is incredible, stuffed grape leaves are wonderful, hummus is really fresh, and their sandwiches are awesome. I often pick the mezza platter for a lunch meeting, and everyone has always loved it. Eating good, and eating healthy!

I live near Kassab's & have eaten there many times. I love the hummus, the baba ghanoug, the salad too (fresh & good with feta) & often get loobee with grilled lamb for takeout (one order is great for a lunch for four at my place) with tabouli (always excellently fresh & generous serving size) & I especially love their moussaka. I like Middle Eastern restaurants in general, of which I'm happy that there are several fine, inexpensive ones in Pittsburgh. Kassab's is almost my favorite & I especially like that I can walk there. These staple Middle Eastern items — hummus, etc. — are somewhat the same but also quite different in every Middle Eastern place, reflecting regional & national variations on the same food themes. Kassab's hummus is creamy, rich & definitely one of the very best around here, though I have to say I've almost never met a hummus I didn't like. Although Kassab's is Lebanese, I have a friend from Athens who adores Kassab's moussaka & says it is exactly the way his mother made it. Definitely not overpriced. I also much enjoy the Lebanese wine, Ksara. Mike Schneider

Best hummus anywhere. So fresh. My husband and I love Kassabs. Yes, it's small and authentic so might take more time than usual to get service, but we've never had an issue!

Food:

Didn't even brother to stay. The server was nowhere to be seen when I first walked in. Then she set a menu down and walked away. Did not even take a drink order or even acknowledge the fact that I was in there after reading over the menu for a good five minutes. Not to mention, it is rather overpriced for what it is.
