"The best Middle Eastern, particularly Levant, food in all of El Paso. Very authentic food and the service is wonderful." — Maysam D.

Built for a city that was waiting

El Paso had no real Levantine kitchen — so Ala Kefk opened one on North Mesa Street, built by people who grew up eating this food and couldn't find it anywhere in the city.

This is the best Middle Eastern, particularly Levant, food in all of El Paso. It’s very authentic food and the service is wonderful. Highly recommend to anyone who is interested in trying real middle eastern food and supporting the local community!

This Arab restaurant just opened and is amazing! The food and ambiance were great. They serve everything Halal. I ordered the Kafta in Tahini Sauce which was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

Wonderful new Halal restaurant nearby Taza, great options, I liked the beef a lot more than the chicken. Hospitality is a part of the restaurant family culture.
