• Middle eastern • West Philadelphia

Renata's Kitchen in Philadelphia, PA offers home-style Middle Eastern food. Starters might include Arabian salad, mjadarra or tomato cilantro soup. Then you can move on to a sandwich like the Tuscan chicken or Cubano, or maybe a falafel or kefta maswhii wrap. Although the main focus at Renata's Kitchen is Middle Eastern, you can get fries with your sandwich. If you're looking for something substantial, try the chicken Estambule, lamb mashwii or shakshouka merguez. Vegetarians will appreciate offerings like the mjaddara platter (spiced bulghar and lentils served with Arabian salad). Although you cannot buy alcoholic beverages at Renata's Kitchen, you are welcome to bring your own.
