AramcoBrats, Inc.

Houston boasts some of the most international cuisine, creative restaurant venues and award-winning chefs in the United States. If you don't believe us, check out this short list of "who's who" for chefs and "top ten/best of" for restaurants choices.

But we know, when Brats get together, they want to indulge in the Middle Eastern delicacies that bring back their childhood memories of living in Saudi. You are in luck because just in the “Galleria” area (near the Omni Houston Hotel) there are 23 Middle Eastern/Mediterranean restaurants to choose from – featuring authentic shawarma, sambusak, falafel, kibbeh, hummus, baba ghanoush, tabouleh, kofta, meze plates, etc. Is your mouth watering yet? And these restaurants are well priced and a quick Uber ride from the Omni Hotel.

If you like to smoke shisha and share a hookah like old times, many of these restaurants provide lots of flavorful options on their outside decks.
