Cafe Maurice

5 stars for food
0 for service
We stood there in the front for quite awhile waiting to be seated. The waitress walked by us several times and then finally said to sit anywhere. My friend told her the table we wanted was dirty and needed to be cleaned. She cleared the table but did not wipe it down completely. The table still had crumbs on one side.
It took about six to seven minutes for the waitress to walk back and get us drinks. Another 5 minutes for her to take our orders. Food came in about 10 mins. Food was good. Loved the beef shawarma hummus. My pasta carbonara was delicious as well. Portion was huge. We barely ate for 20 mins and she brought us our checks. We felt rushed. They weren’t even that busy! There were only four other occupied tables. I don’t know why service was so slow in the beginning considering there were approx 4 servers at the front (I counted).
Our waitress never smiled once. She wouldn’t even take her time to talk to us or make eye contact. When I helped her clean up our table (aka put together plates and picked up a dropped spoon), she quickly turned around and said «thanks» as she walked back to the kitchen. She was not friendly AT ALL! Nevertheless, I gave her the benefit of the doubt and I tipped over 30%. Perhaps she was having a bad day? I mean, she did voluntarily replace my disintegrated complimentary slice of tiramisu with a better looking one.
Overall, food was good. Service was bad. I might come back.

Without a doubt the best Mediterranean food in Wichita. The food and service are consistently excellent. If you’re looking for a light meal, I’d recommend the fattoush salad with 2 chicken skewers. For a dinner entrée, you can’t go wrong with the daily special, which is typically a traditional Mediterranean dish.

Food and service is always consistent. The hummus is good and comes with a basket of variety of pita chips, you can add beef or chicken schwarma on the hummus too. My fave is the Pasta Diablo with a side of chicken skewers (although I wish they took out the capers). The free tiramisu tops the experience off.

Good lunch spot that gets fairly busy each day. Falafel sandwich was tasty but small as are all the sandwiches. Sandwiches cone with a side of fries, tabbouleh or salad. Salad was nicely dressed. Veg curry had well cooked vegetables and great portion size but the curry sauce was quite thick. I’d order it again but with the understanding that it’s a heavy meal. Lunch meals came with small dessert tiramisu and it was tasty!
Nice location for a quick semi casual lunch or dinner.

A Wichita local took us here during our short visit and it was amazing! EVERY MEAL COMES WITH A TIRAMISU. That alone would make me fall in love with the restaurant, but I gave it 5 stars because the vegetable curry was incredible. The portion was huge, and I couldn’t stop eating because it was so good. I’m craving it already! I highly recommend to anyone in the area.

There are a lot mediterranean places to go all over time but if your looking for something with a change on the menu with lively flavor come here. My girlfriends & I come here when we want to get together, quick luck from work, or my fav a nice lil date night for you and your significant other. It’s a great night for a first night date with a girl you want to surprise, especially if she never been here. Their curry dish is soooo tasty & I always like to add a couple of chicken kabobs with it as well. To top it off at the end of your meal they provide a small 1 bite of desert to each guest. It’s like the perfect end to your mail.

Been here 3 times in 2 wks! The hummus is the best around town. Definitely worth every bit of $ 10. You not only get to decide between the steak or chicken but comes with a heaping basket of pita chips and baked pita. My favorite dish is the chicken artichoke pasta!

Poor service and food was worse then average for the price.
Chicken kebab was burnt and tasteless.

This is my favorite place ever to eat. Fairly good prices, the chicken kabab sandwich is amazing! As is maurices salad, the humus, and complementary cake!

Went Again! It’s becoming addictive. A pre-Valentine’s Day lunch with good friends and our niece. Good times and she loves Chocolate covered Strawberries!
I usually get the Mixed Grill and sautéed veggies. We all shared the Hummus for a grand outing! Thanks Café Maurice!

Recently moved to Wichita and was fortunate to find this wonderful restaurant! It’s a Mediterranean restaurant but aside from those delicacies they make the best burger I’ve had in Wichita! Do not miss the glorious mushroom soup.

The menu is very familiar if you’re used to eating Mediterranean/​Lebanese food in Wichita. However, I think Maurice’s does it better than anyone else in town. I especially like the Hummas Schwarma for an appetizer and the Veggie Curry for an entrée.

The vegetable curry is creamy, rich, and savory. Be hungry. Don’t get the falafel sandwich here. It’s not as good as at some other restaurants. The fattoush salad is one of the better in town, but not quite as good as N & J. I like that they use mixed greens to make their salad, rather than plain old lettuce. VEGETARIAN

Ordered the chicken and shrimp kebabs. The food was good but the portions were quite small for the amount of money. $ 20 gets you what I’m guessing was about 4 – 5 oz of meat and chips and hummus. Maybe i just picked the wrong thing on the menu but I probably won’t go back. There are so many good Mediterranean places in Wichita.

Good mushroom soup… very nice falafel. Pastries were pleasent… chocolate hazelnut and raspberry. Service was ok

The food here is excellent, the service is not so great. We usually have pretty decent service but the last couple times it’s been pretty awful.

Great Scenery and very friendly staff. Came here for lunch and the Thursday Special Is Lamb Shank. It was cooked to perfection, in my opinion. The falafel my wife had was pretty good but hey it’s a falafel. And then to finish it off they give you tiramisu dessert on the house.

Very good food. Very nice people. Restaurant itself is pretty nice. Very casual place. Clean, newer, and comfortable.

Finally made it to Café Maurice. I told the waitress that this was the first time there for my friend and I. She had an awesome running knowledge of the menu. She said in the two years she had been there, no significant change had been made to the menu.
For the appetizer, we ordered the hummus. Wow they gave us a ton of pita bread and crispy chips. And the hummus was nicely plated between small pieces of veggies.
I ordered the chicken with artichoke pasta, and my friend ordered the pasta carbonara. We each had the tomato bisque as the side. The waitress brought out the soups for each of us after the hummus. We were both pleased with the bisque. It’s not on the menu, so you have to ask specifically for it.
The chicken was broiled tender. The artichoke and caper sauce was excellent. The spaghetti was a flat noodle and was tender. My friend’s dish was nice as well, but I liked mine better. Neither of us finished the entrees after eating the hummus.
Café Maurice gives a complimentary tiramisu that is not made with rum, but rather with a mocha. It’s a small piece which is fine for not having been able to finish the entrees.
It’s a great place with great service. I would definately come back to try more.

This review is long overdue. I’ve been coming here on average once every couple of months since it opened. To be honest, I was even thinking of never writing a review, because I’m afraid one of these days, I’m going to go over here to get some delicious food and the line will be out the door. However, I want to keep coming here, thus, giving this restaurant a well-​deserved 5 star rating (a first for me!) seems justified.
Food: Fantastic. There are some places I go and only order the same thing, or float between some old faithfuls. However, everything I’ve tried on this menu is great. My personal favorites are the Chicken & Artichoke dish & the Pasta Diablo dish. I am not ashamed to polish off a whole plate of Hummus with my husband, either. The best part is the reward at the end — a small, yet satisfying plate of complimentary Tiramisu.
Service: Every time I’m here the staff are busy — however, they always make time to clean off a table (if there is an empty one, that is) when they see people come in. I’ve always had good service (ie. wait time for drinks, food, refills, etc.) and the owner (or manager? both? idk…), who always has a smile on her face, can be seen checking the tables to see how their food is.
Atmosphere: This restaurant seems best suited for couples, due to the small size, although I have seen families here as well. My husband I and usually come on Friday or Saturday nights, and it is usually 75%-100% full of people.
