A Taste of the Mediterranean Right in Hillsborough: El Wadi Grill

El Wadi Grill, nestled at 601 US‑206 in Hillsborough, is our “Taste of the Day” pick—a family-owned halal eatery blending bold Middle Eastern flavors with casual American favorites.

Why It Stands Out

• Halal Mediterranean–American fusion: Expect sizzling kebabs, tender chicken shawarma, savory falafel, and gyro platters alongside burgers, sandwiches, salads, and even quesadilla sandwiches.

• Top menu picks: Signature items include the El Wadi Special Platter (lamb gyro, chicken shawarma & falafel), Chicken & Lamb Platter, and Veggie Mix Platter—all served with rice, grilled peppers, onions, pita, and their signature sauce.

• Standout service: Reviewers praise the speedy service and friendly staff; seating is reviewed to be more spacious than you'd expect from a primarily takeout spot.

If you’re craving authentic halal Mediterranean comfort food with generous flavors and a side of friendly hospitality, El Wadi Grill deserves a spot on your radar. Ideal for quick platters or hearty combos, it’s a great pick for lunch or dinner—especially if you appreciate bold kebabs, shawarma, or falafel. Just be mindful of pricing and portion expectations when ordering.
