One of the best halal food in town. I tried two different platter. One mixed combo of gyro and chicken kafta kabab and another one with gyro and chicken shwarma platter. I liked the former one more. Platters are served with rice, pita bread, 2 dips and salad. Must try if you are visiting lubbock.

Love the family-like vibes!!!
I got beef and lamb gyro plate which came with a salad and a pita bread. It was fine.
Gyro was kinda too salty, but overall it tasted good.
They didn’t come and ask if we’re doing ok so it was pretty chill but you need to walk to the cashier to ask for things.
water cost extra but these made sense since the price was pretty low!
They are all nice people! Overall worth it!!

Best gyro in town!
Some of the best hummus I’ve ever had.
Everything I’ve had is amazing. Glad to see some diversity of food options in Lubbock.

I have eaten at Manara Cafe a handful of times and it is consistently delicious and authentic. Although I consider myself an adventurous eater, I’ve taken a few picky eaters here (including an 8 year old picky eater) who also walked away fully loving it. The vegetarian plate is filling and delicious. The lamb and beef is incredible. Best hummus in town by a long shot!

Wow. Chicken shawarma wrap, hummus, and yellow rice were unbelievably good. Everything is fresh and obviously scratch made. What other Mediterranean restaurants in town want to be. The garlic sauce is also perfect. I don’t know how I’ve lived here 20 years and just discovered this place. Prices are also very reasonable for the amount of food you get. The hummus comes with 3 large, warm pitas.

The food is worth journeying far. I will be coming back! I had the dolmades and chicken shawarma plate.
The dolmades pack a punch. The leaves were tender and easy to cut. The side salad had a dressing that was standout. The saffron rice has real saffron, it’s not just yellow colored. The chicken shawarma was so easy to eat, with a nice warm tomato-based sauce, but in a good portion that will leave you full. The pita, oh goodness. Soft and flavorful bread, I want the recipe! And the sauces I received on the side of my shawarma plate were very tasty.
If you’re serious about flavorful food, give Manara a try!

Food was not even close to authentic Mediterranean cuisine. Heard a lot of good things about this restaurant. But we got to eat over fried Falafel and didn’t feel physically good after having the chicken shawarma. Maybe years ago it was a good place to go but not anymore. And cherry on top is that the host was very loud to us and he barely smiles dealing with the customers and serving his awful food.

This is my favorite restaurant in Lubbock, and one of the best in the entire city. It is the only place in town with authentic Middle Eastern style Mediterranean food. The hummus is especially perfect and the saffron rice is next level. I always get the gyro platter as well, but the chicken, falafel, and everything else on the menu is delicious.

Fantastic Lebanese food! This is a great little mom and pop restaurant that’s full of fresh flavor. My wife and I started with the Falafel appetizer. I’m normally not big on falafel but this one tasted amazing with a nice outer crust. I had the Beef and Lamb Gyro. The meat had tons of flavor and the pita was slightly crispy. My wife had the Chicken Kebab platter and it was super delicious with large pieces of chicken. We split a baklava which made the perfect email to a nice lunch. We will definitely be back when we’re passing through Lubbock

Fine Mediterranean food restaurant. We had baba ghanoush with chicken and beef plate. The chicken was tender with mild spicy sauce. Sauce had strong flavor of chicken stock. The beef was nice and little bit crispy. Rice was cooked with whole spices and had really good taste. I loved the baba ghanoush. This place is small with small menu. Had to wait for the order bit long but food was awesome for low price.
