Harissa - Reviews

I went for a flamenco show and while the show was amazing, the overall experience was far from it. The service was terrible; our waiter never came over, and I had to chase them down. It took an hour and a half for our food to arrive, which was very mid with small portions for the price. The worst part was how freezing it was, I couldn't feel my toes. When I asked the waiter to turn up the heat, they dismissively said, “it must be you, I am very hot. ” To top it off, there were strobe lights shining directly on our table.

My experience at Harissa was a delightful discovery in Ravenna! I found it to be a tasty little find with excellent Mediterranean staples and some unique and equally tasty chef’s specials. The service was wonderful, thanks to our host/chef who was very welcoming and genuinely fond of all his customers. We’re definitely going back!

My dining experience at Harissa Mediterranean Cuisine in the University District was outstanding. The food was exceptional, described as fresh, beautifully seasoned, and full of authentic Mediterranean flavor. Every dish offered a perfect balance of spices and textures, showcasing the passion behind the cooking. A special thank you goes to Chef Walid, whose hospitality and kindness made the meal even more memorable. He personally checked on our table, ensuring everything was perfect, a level of care rarely seen today. His dedication to quality and genuine warmth made Harissa feel like home. The atmosphere is welcoming and elegant, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and professional. Harissa is a fantastic choice for any occasion, whether it's a family meal, a date night, or hosting guests. I highly recommend Harissa and Chef Walid, calling it a true culinary gem in Seattle! 🌟 I’ll definitely be returning and bringing friends.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food was great, and the service was equally impressive. I'm so excited to be hosting my Christmas party here in 3 weeks. Great job, Walid!

My experience at this restaurant was absolutely fantastic. I was surprised by some reviews calling the food "just good" because I found it to be the best Mediterranean/Lebanese I've ever eaten, and it was incredibly fresh. We left with very happy bellies. The atmosphere is also so lovely, enhanced by live music. I'll be recommending this place HIGHLY to everyone I know.

My first visit to this restaurant was a delightful experience. The food was fabulous, and the service was both attentive and kind. We started with hummus and flat bread, which were delicious, with the hummus being delightfully creamy. For our main courses, we enjoyed the falaffel platter and the salmon kabob. The falaffel had a perfect texture with a surprising hint of cinnamon, making it the best I've had in the USA. The salmon kabob was perfectly cooked, complemented by flavorful vegetables and rice. The flavors throughout the meal were well-balanced, and the textures were perfect. We are eager to return and explore more of their vegetarian and seafood options.

My experience at this restaurant on a Friday was fantastic. To our surprise, they have weekly bellydancing shows, which added a unique and enjoyable element to the evening. The ambiance and the performers were truly great! We had such a blast. The food was delicious, too. Overall, a 10/10 experience.
