Flip It

Authentic Mediterranean

Flip It delivers authentic Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes – including Maqluba – our specialty! For centuries, Maqluba is one of the most popular dishes in the Middle East. It consists of meat, rice, and fried vegetables placed in a pot, which is flipped upside down when served, hence the name.

Taste our appetizers like Kibbeh, Stuffed Grape Leaves, Hummus, Baba Ghanouj, and Samosas—or sample everything with our Sampler Platter. We offer Mediterranean beverages – Mint Lemonade, Aryan (Yogurt Drink), Middle Eastern Soda, and Turkish Coffee.

Enjoy hearty entrées such as Maklouba, Maftoul (Palestinian Couscous), Musakhan (Sumac Chicken Flatbread), and Mujadara (Middle Eastern Rice and Lentil dish), then finish with sweet Knafeh and Baklava desserts.

Flip It is also excited to introduced our sandwiches – Middle Eastern Burger, Meatball Sandwich, and Falafel Sandwich.

Stop by for lunch or dinner seven days a week. We also offer catering for all occasions – weddings, birthday parties, graduation, and other occasions.

Flip It Restaurant has hosted fundraisers, non-profit events, and public officials and media from Wake County and beyond have attended events at our restaurant. We will be excited to serve you in the future.

My new favorite restaurant! We ordered the maklouba for the table, mujadara, and samosas, kibbeh, grape leaves. Every single items was absolutely delicious! We came as a family of 6 and each one of us left feeling full and satisfied. The atmosphere of Flip It is so clean, so beautiful, and so inviting. The service was excellent and the owner also made sure the customers had a great dining experience. She was so lovely to speak with and very friendly, along with her staff. We’ll be back again and again 🙂 we are so happy to have this gem in Raleigh.

Beautifully decorated, extremely friendly staff and delicious, fresh food. The flatbread was incredibly flavorful, a delight for our taste buds. Very unique, authentic Mediterranean cuisine.

Went on a whim with my husband and our friend. Staff and owner were friendly and very inviting. We were informed of the owner's drive for opening the restaurant and her purpose: just providing great food and exposing people to her culture. We got the Maklouba and it was fantastic. Was great getting to experience a family style meal which is hard to find. Definitely would recommend a long with going again.
