Lama Mediterranian Cafe

It's always a pleasure to read about a restaurant you haven't tried, go and visit it and discover a new favorite for future dining excursions. This is the case with Lama Mediterranean Cuisine in The Woodlands. My wife had a doctor's appointment at 2 pm and we live about 35 miles away, I figured go early and get some lunch and then get to the doctor with a full stomach. We put the address into the GPS and pulled right up in front of the restaurant. While it was nice weather outside, we decided to sit indoors and I am glad we did because I noticed some diners outdoors were batting away insects. Our server, Abraham came quickly and took our drink orders while we studied the menu and admired the beautifully decorated interior of the restaurant. Blue is a strong color they have used effectively, there is a large dinging room for a big group just off the main dining room and a bar at the far west end. We ordered some appetizers and they came out quickly, We had a small order (4 pieces) of the Fried Hallumi Cheese and also Kebbeh. Both came with a small sampling of cucumber, tomato and red onion which paired well. The Kebbeh had the most fragrant seasoning, I believe a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and clove. The serving sizes were ample and after trying some we both agreed to save room for the entrees we ordered, my wife had the Gyro Sandwich and I had the Chicken Shawerma, both were wrapped in a super fresh pita that had to be house made. My wife had the regular fries and I had sweet potato which were cooked perfectly, so light and crisp. We couldn't resist ordering some baklava to go, my wife thought walnut sounded good but our server said he felt the cashew was the best so we ordered that. When he brought it out, he said that there were 2 pieces of the cashew but he also added one of walnut at no charge, what a treat. We will be coming back here, the restaurant overall was super fresh and clean, service was great and the food was fantastic.

Mediterranean in Woodlands. Service and atmosphere: Tentative and very friendly staff. The restaurant was clean and organised. There were many seating options. They offer patio outside as well. Food and drinks: Menu offered plenty options to choose from. We opted for family meat and starters selection. The plate included two types of humuses, tzatziki and fresh and crispy salad. The main dish consisted oh white rice, chicken, beef, and kebab meats. Everything tested good. Pricing: $$ - the family dish for two was $70.

Delicious and well packaged to-go trays. The grandchildren love the kids chicken nuggets/fries. The Baklava and Hot tea is very tasty. We ❤️ our USA troops and salute 🫡 Thank you for your service. LAMA serves our community and strives to deliver outstanding service too.

What an amazing dinner experience! Our server Doris is really great at her job. She explained details of the menu for us and put in our orders so that our experience was timed correctly, with our drinks, appetizer, entrees, dessert and coffee all arriving with plenty of space in between to enjoy each without feeling rushed. The belly dancer was lovely, engaging and did an excellent job of showcasing her skills and participating with her audience. I do wish they would have introduced her, I would have liked to know her name! It was just a spectacular night and I am so happy to have experienced it. :) I wish we were locals and not traveling from Florida.
