This is our new favorite Middle Eastern place! I loved the tea recipes and the chicken kabaub had the BEST flavor. A humble place yet elegant inside. Beautiful plaster work. Very kind waiter providing education on the dishes and their origin. We will be back to try their lamb dish.

Really nice place to geta bite to eat. The inside was nicely decorated and the service was quick and friendly. The babaganush and the peach bruschetta were both excellent appetizers. The babahanush was served with very tasty fresh bread. The falafel plate was very good. Nice fluffy but crispy falafel on good hummus. The ribeye kabob was seasoned very well, it was just over cooked a bit for my liking. I will definitely be back.

Food is pretty good, I like the flavor, but some of the components were a little unbalanced like the roasted lamb I ordered (a tad too salty). The rice were aromatic and fluffy, the side dishes were amazing, and the Lamb was cooked very well. The portion is a little small for the price, even accounting for flavor and the such (i took the image after taking half of the Lamb). Service is a little slow but its a fairly small spot so. Overall, good place.

The food here was quite tasty and I could tell that they put a lot of thought and effort into the food. Everything had a well-balanced flavor and combining dishes to share at our table resulted in everyone trying new foods and enjoying them. The babaganoush was slightly smoky but well balanced and the grilled peach salad was very refreshing. The most disappointing, frustrating and confusing part of the dinner was the drinks. I can only describe the drinks as a bait-and-switch scam. The menu describes the drinks as fresh, prepared drinks that combine fresh ingredients like strawberries, mint, herbs. In reality, the drinks were just canned sodas or a bottle of plain (not prepared or blended with any herbs) yogurt. And the drinks are not cheap; we wasted $20 on drinks that we regretted and wouldn’t have purchased if the menu had been honest.
