Food was kinda okish, not great. Felt that the items were not fresh or had that feeling of reused oil. Ambience was okay.

Generous portions, friendly service, and delicious food! I haven’t been here since pre-pandemic and have to say that this place is consistent because the food was just as good as I remember! Will definitely come back for more!

This place is more western mix of Mediterranean food. The food is average, we tried both falafel sandwich and chicken both were average. I still ended up giving 4/5 since the price for the quantity and quality of the food was good.

We ordered chicken shawarma plate, lentil soup and falafel. Falafel was good but chicken was very dry and it felt like old. Lentil soup was very hot and they serve it in a foam cup, when I asked them why they are serving hot liquid in a plastic cup they said foam is not plastic but foam is a expanded plastic which even takes long time to degrade and harmful to health. Honestly we go in person to eat food to reduce the plastic waste but it seems like even if you in person they serve in single use here. Honestly it hurts when ppl doesn’t care for customers health and planet health. Never going back to falafel etc again.

I had a chicken Shawarma sandwich which was really like a pita but with the tender chicken and crunchy vegetables inside, it tasted unique and homemade. I sat outside as they were plenty of seats and enjoyed the sunshine. Some of the best value I’ve seen for a personal meal. Extensive menu so everyone should be able to find something they like!

I am a vegetarian, but I used to eat here when I ate meat. Their chicken shawarma was so good that it is the only dish to make me consider eating meat again. Also the hummus is (no exaggeration) absolutely perfect and the best hummus I’ve ever eaten!

Okay food. Quality is okay and quantity is good. For some reason, guy at the front won’t give you bowls unless asked. Service is okay and quick. It is overall clean and has decent ambience.

I visited this place very recently, decent place with a spacious seating capacity and peaceful environment. Had chicken Shawarma sandwich(served in a warm pocket bread stuffed with slices of chicken marinated with shawarma seasoning along side with tomato, cucumber, pickles and cabbage etc which is an ok item and then had Tahineh Soup which is good with some fries. And finally the dessert item that is Knaffee ( made with melted sweet cheese with shredded filo dough and topped with Arabic syrup which is served warm). Knaffee was tooo sweet as I asked for more Arabic syrup but it tasted amazing….
