Great Mediterranean food! Great service! The food was fresh and light. Here's what I strongly recommend: appetizer - falafel was fantastic; nice, crunchy, flavorful: hummus was great, but I prefer with more garlic (just preference). As for the entree, highly recommend the Greek salad with the chicken shawarma - nice light, but filling and flavorful (strongly recommend). Everyone at the table choose one of the entree and all we raving about their food. Very nice ambiance and beautifully decorated. Strongly recommend the baklava and the green tea.

This was a lovely little place . We got the 2 person kabob special and generally enjoyed it. The chicken was moist and tender and the blended meat had a good flavor. Our steak was ordered as medium rare, but came out REALLY rare. My husband ordered a glass of wine, which he enjoyed, but wadn't blown away by. As we came at opening, there was only one server while we were there, which was fine when we were the only customers, but it meant we had to wait a while toward the end. We wrapped up our meal with the "Dubai chocolate." We had never tried it, even though it has been widely advertised. We were curious what they were doing with it - and were rather amused to receive 2 bars of chocolate on a decorated plate, along with fresh silverware....that didn't do a thing to the chocolate bars. It was tasty chocolate though. Not a bad place overall.
The kebab platter here is the reason I’ll was back. Juicy, well-spiced lamb and chicken straight off the grill, with fluffy saffron rice, grilled tomatoes. The garlic sauce on the side was addictive. Portion was huge — easily shareable for two if you order mezze too. Service was genuine, ambiance feels like a breezy taverna, and the mint tea at the end was a perfect finish.
I absolutely love this place. The lamb was the best I’ve had that wasn’t jerked. The tea isn’t as sweet as my Moroccan mother’s tea, but it’s still so lovely. I love the live music. I’d decline the $25 app deal and actually get a meal. The service is nice, literally. The staff are nice, just slow and un strategic. I can’t wait to go back. The hookah is nice. I would saw this place is women friendly. I recommend 100%.
Just had the best dinner at this spot and I'm still thinking about it. The hummus was silky smooth and the warm pita came out fresh — I could've made a meal out of just that. I got the chicken shawarma plate and the meat was perfect , with rice that actually had flavor. The garlic sauce is dangerous. Portions are huge for the price and the staff treats you like family. Already planning my next visit. Details I loved: • Standouts: shish kebabs, falafel with crispy outside + fluffy inside, tabbouleh that tastes garden-fresh • Service: Super friendly, food came out fast even on a Friday night • Vibe: Casual, clean, smells amazing the second you walk in
