The servers were friendly and the atmosphere was lively. The food looked amazing. Unfortunately most of my pictures came out blurry. Even more unfortunate the food was ok. The meat was dry. The appetizers were great and the natural drinks they make are great too. Bread was good also. And omg the dessert. Wow. I think it’s called kenufa or something I think. It was amazingly delicious. The meat was soo dry tho. Sigh…

Apps were good. Drinks were good. Atmosphere was fun and service was good. We got the schwarma platter, chicken tawook wrap, and arayes with cheese. Everything was very good except the meat for the schwarma platter was so dry and tough. It was really disappointing, but everything else was great.

The food looked so good when it came out we dug in before taking all of the pictures but trust me, everything is flavorful and absolutely delicious! We had the Chicken Toshka for our appetizer which consists of Two whole pieces of baked pita bread stuffed with chicken, syrian cheese and a special garlic spread. My husband had the lamb chops platter which consists of Four lamb chops marinated with their special seasoning and grilled to your liking, served with grilled onions and tomatoes and 1/2 Red Rice 1/2 Yellow Rice, my son had the Chicken Tikka which is Two boneless skewers of marinated curry flavored boneless chicken, grilled onions and tomatoes and 1/2 Red Rice 1/2 Yellow Rice, I had the Chicken Tikka Wrap which consists of 1 Skewer of their homemade chicken tikka kabab chopped with tomatoes, onions, lettuce, and homemade sauce on markouk bread and fries, and we all had Pina Coladas and mango smoothies. For dessert we had some hot tea with mint and a traditional Kanafa dessert made with thin noodle-like pastry, or alternatively fine semolina dough, soaked in sweet, sugar-based syrup and layered with cheese and pistachio nuts spread on top. On top of everything one of the managers and our host Yousef were attentive and very personable as well!

Waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable of the cuisine. The atmosphere was very calm, chill with nice music. The room temperature was cozy on this winter night. The lights are dim but still well lit. The seats were comfortable. The tables were clean. The prices are reasonable. And the appetizers are very full and main course was delicious as expected. The grilled meat was flavorful and smokey. They have straws and you can request lemon for your water.

This place is super highly rated and stuff but to be honest was not that good. The service the waiters gave was awesome. But the shawarma had no flavor and is for sure the first time I ever had bland shawarma. The lamb kebab didn’t have the strong taste of lamb you are used to from other restaurants or butchers. It’s fine trying but I have had much better
