| - Amir is a chain of Lebanese restaurants, but each one is franchised so they are all a bit different. I would actually rate this place a 3.5/5 but I rounded up for the sake of making good when they made a mistake in delivering (this is one of few times it's happened over the last, oh I don't know...15 years or so).
My family has ordered her regularly for a long time, and I'm not sure if it's been the same owners the whole time, but the food is pretty good for "fast-food" style shawarma, shish taouk, and even a bit more upscale items like shrimp skewers. They have a number of vegetarian items, so if you don't eat meat you'll be able to have a meal here no problem. They have a large seating area with space outside in the warmer months, and like I mentioned before, they do delivery.
We had a little get together chez nous tonight and ordered in some platters of mini items a few days in advance. When the order arrived we realized that they had forgot to send an extra order of hummus and one of garlic sauce (which is super garlicky, not a good idea on a first date). So we called them back, and they didn't even bat an eyelash, they sent the sauce right over with a huge bag of pita bread. It might not seem like a big deal, but that was a nice touch.
I didn't realize no one else had reviewed this location since it's so popular and right across the street from a metro station, but maybe next time I'll remember to take pics?
