Very nice outdoor ambiance and tasty food- hummus had a nice garlic flavor, as did the salad. Quick service- great experience. Will come back!

The service was very pleasant, food came out quickly and hot. Atmosphere is pleasant and not too busy for lunch. I’ve been eating here for over 20 years and always nice to come back. Stop next door in grocery to purchase fresh made pita.

We had a Chicken Kabob with Salad/Humus plate…. and a Lula Kebob plate with grilled vegetables/ Hummus. Both were very delicious! Definitely fresh, well seasoned and more than enough. Warm pita bread was served also!!!! Definitely an excellent meal. Within the restaurant building, accessed by a different entry is a wonderful world deli, with Middle East and Italian delicacies available for sale!

1st time going and it was a great experience. Food was hot and fresh. I ordered the veggies (carrots were hard) with rice and paid the extra $3.50 for 4 shrimp (i was expecting 6 since most appetizers are the same price). The Lebanese tea was good but they are stingy on the pine nuts but i didn’t ask for extra either. The spinach pie was good, the sauce took a little getting used to. Friend had the lentil soup, fries and falafel sandwich. The outside dining area was a great experience, covered and well lit. Our server, Abraham, was very polite and knowledgeable of the menu. There is also a market attached but i didn’t visit due to closing times. Will definitely return to try something different, however, i highly recommend the veggie and rice plate. *Maybe add a little more veggies since the main dish is vegetables.

Nice middle eastern food with vegetarian options. We ordered the falafel plate and vegetarian plate for two people. It was very filling. Also got the cucumber yogurt salad, was very refreshing for the heat.

I’ve had their chicken, beef, and falafel schwarmas. All three are awesome and so tasty with spices. Their hummus is delicbious—they add some topping of a slightly spicy pepper and oil on top. Their basmati rice with saffron is well seasoned, too! Not just that plain yellow rice you get at other similar restaurants. I love this place and hope their quality never changes. I’m writing this review because I want them to stay in business and do well. 🙂

Oh yeah. My family comes here at least once a week. Service is unpredictable but the spirit is always right. Hummus, falafel, gyro, labnah, all on point. Turkish coffee and baklava to round out the night.

Cute place, staff wasn’t too friendly, prices are a bit high. There is a small grocery store that is attached to the restaurant.
