Villa Madina

Villa Madina is a food court staple that, at the right location, is genuinely good. The key is knowing what to order — don't go for the wraps, go for the plates. The yellow rice is excellent and the potatoes are really good. Get the bean salad and the pasta salad as sides.

What to Order

The plates — not the wraps. Yellow rice, potatoes, bean salad, and pasta salad. That's the Madina order.

Must Try

Yellow rice with a protein plate. The yellow rice alone makes this worth ordering.

The Verdict

Depends entirely on the location — some are better than others — but at a good location with the right order, Villa Madina delivers really solid Lebanese food at food court prices. Convenient, consistent at its best, and a smart pick if you know what to get.
