Reviews Tahini

So.... Whilst the other half was in Hospital for Surgery, I decided to enjoy myself and head for some food. Walking around Dundee for a while, I remembered a restaurant me and her often walk past, that smelled amazing each time. Always said we would try it, anyway I will for the both of us :D Walked in and the atmosphere was really nice, for a Thursday Evening it was quiet. I was seated promptly, and the waitress came along with a nice jug of water. The menu is small, but it all looks good, couldn't say there was anything I wouldn't eat. Waitress had asked what I would like, sometimes, and I mean sometimes I am happy for someone else to pick, so I said "You pick something, just don't tell me what it is" Wow she said, and went off with a smile. The lassie came with the first course, "This is called, Baba Ghanoush" It was her favourite, To be honest, I just thought that is what Owen Wilson Called Vince Vaugh in Wedding Crashers, but nope, its an actual Starter. So, my thoughts on Baba Ghanoush. It looked good, White paste, with an olive in the middle, looked like some Olive Oil, and some seasoning. Actually looked like a Porridge, no Idea why I was expecting it to be sweet. Anyway it tasted like Porridge and Humus, not what I was expecting, Weirdly Its made from neither of these, actually made from Egg Plant, now that was a Surprise. I don't think I will order that again, My next course was a Chicken Shawarma, this looked amazing, and to be honest, it tasted EVEN BETTER..... Chicken Shawarma, Rice, 4 dips, and some bread, and to be honest I could have ate this twice over. Rice tasted amazing, One of the dips (Red One) tasted like Pakora Sauce, but alot better. I think there was a Humus and Garlic dip, first time I have tasted that, again cannot complain with that at all. there was a white dip, wish I caught the name, but never, I think large chunks of vegetables, wasn't too keen on it, but was tasty. Ended the meal with Baclava. All in all, I WILL be back, I will miss out the Baba Ghanoush, and try something else. but Server was amazing, Place was Amazing. EDIT..... Been again just this week 28/10/23 and again was just amazing, can 100% recommend the mixed laffa, literally have never tried anything like it in my life. Also updated with 4 new images Taboulli, lamb samosas, mixed laffa and chicken... Decided this time to take the ball and chain with me

Lovely service and food. We ordered the 2 courses tapas meal and another side meal and it was amazing. The flavours were so delightful :)

Fantastic food and service..We always book a table when we go to Dundee, food is delicious.

Lovely food. Sunday set menu was way too much food for me but all of it tasted great.

Fantastic meal at Tahini, set menu. Incredible food, really really tasty and reasonably priced. Would absolutely go back.

If there is one place you must visit when in Dundee it’s this amazing restaurant, wonderful atmosphere for such a small place and great service but best of all fantastic food. The fixed menu was just wonderful. We were fortunate to get a table at the last minute but I recommend you book as it’s a very small restaurant. I can give nothing less than five stars as it was a perfect evening for us.

I’ve been to Tahini a couple times, and as an adventurous eater I was pleasantly surprised by all the different options they offered for Tapas (and the great value for money too). When we wanted anything extra on top of the set Tapas (extra samosas/dip/flatbread etc) it was free. The first time I ate vegetarian and they had plenty options to cater for this. Staff were super friendly and knowledgeable about the food.

So much food and so tasty! The waitress Laurie was so friendly and happy to help as well which was so nice!

First Lebanese food I’ve tried here in Dundee. Tried the dinner set which had 5 courses. With the amount of food given, I personally think 2 people would be able to share 1 set. There was indeed a great variety of food and they were all flavourful and delicious! With the starter , they had multiple condiments to go with it which were all distinct in flavour. The cold and warm tapas up next were all delectable. The mixed grill meat were well marinated and tender as well.
