Their food is insanely good but the restaurant itself is very small and probably only seats about 16 people. There are 4 or 5 outdoor tables with heat lamps as well. I absolutely loved the grilled broccolini and the chicken kebab. The chicken was so flavorful and juicy and the broccolini had a really nice grilled flavor. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you are eating alone or with 1 person.

Came here for a late lunch. I got the hummus topped with burnt ends, which was a perfect combination. Also came with a pita 🫓 for dipping. The smokey flavour/smell off the plate was what hit home this would be the lunch I needed right now. Service was good and friendly. Quiet at 2pm which is expected as they close at 2:30pm for a staff break until dinner service.

I absolutely love Lil’ Shalom, but honestly you can’t go wrong with any of the amazing restaurants from Sesame Collective. I’ve been a few times to LS and love the ambiance and feel in the restaurant, with the open kitchen and wood fire oven in plain view. The burnt beef ends hummus with pastrami and roasted jalapeño, served with fresh pita, were incredible. I also loved the grilled octopus with smashed potatoes. Every bite was decadent. And a great option for vegetarians is the Shalom Y’all Plate with some of the best falafel I’ve ever had. Great food, great service, fun ambiance - can’t go wrong with Lil’ Shalom!

Me and a friend stopped in for an afternoon snack and we both really enjoyed the classic hummus and the fries. Split between two people was plenty of food. The outdoor patio was a great spot to eat.

We had a fantastic lunch at Lil Shalom. We ate at the counter and shared the plate and lentils/rice dish. It was delicious and we will definitely eat there again.

This restaurant is a gem. One of the best restaurants I've been to in my life. The no-proof drinks are excellent. The food is excellent. The chicken kebab is marinated to perfection; the mujaddara (rice lentil fried onion) reminded me of Addas Polo (عدس پلو) and is SO good. Must try!

What a treasure for Turkish food here in Portland. Schwarma was absolutely incredible, house made pita bread is served soft and warm. Highly recommend! Waitstaff is very courteous and attentive.

Very less indoor seating, outside is great. The food is very well made with quality ingredients, the falafel is delicious as well. I love the service, fast and efficient. But, We got the shalom y’all plate and it’s not enough for two people (which I was told it is) unless you have a small appetite. Also with plates you only get 1 pita which isn’t enough for 2 people or for the whole plate. A extra pita in itself costs $3. A little bit on the expensive side given it’s self service but I’ll come back to try different things.

This place was great, just happened to be hungry at the right time and place. One glance at the menu told me what I needed to know. Order at the counter, sit outside, and await the delicious food that’ll soon be heading your way. Looking forward to a follow up visit.
