This is an excellent restaurant. Small, with polite and very helpful staff and excellent food. For the price, the food quantity and quality was incredible. The decor could use some work, however, this is still a great Mediterranean place and I'd highly recommend this place!

Great food, small place. Lamb in tomato curry and other dishes was great! A couple people got gyros and another couple got gyro plates. Gyro meet was a little dry. Baba ganoush and humus were excellent. Generous enough for the price. No one left hungry. Only 2 tables to sit at. I’d happily go again.

The food is amazing, the wait time is short, and the quantity in one plate can easily feed 2 or more people. I loved it here and would eat here every day if I could!

Very small restaurant without a bathroom! Only 2 tables on the very small dining area. We didn't realize it is a take out place. It was our Valentines dinner fiasco... Kind of expensive $30 dollars for one plate of Molokhia and two appetizers: hummus and vegetarian dolmas. No drinks or desert! All served in plastic containers which turned me off!! Since we requested to eat here i thought they would at least serve us on plates! The server was not very friendly! It was a very mediocre experience

If you like salty, tasteless food then you will love this place!!!! I saw all the great reviews and was excited to try this place. I ordered the chicken shawarma and my wife got Greek salad. The chicken was dry and very salty. The rice has no flavor. The hummus is chunky and not a great flavor. The salad was good enough. The falafel was moist and a nice size but salty. I am disappointed and do not recommend this place.

I've only been here once, I took my mother. I have never had bread that good in my life ever again. The food was so good. And I am constantly telling people about the food there. I'm going back in about 2 weeks. I can only think of one place that had better Middle Eastern food and that was an Afghan restaurant in New Jersey. This place is amazing and I recommend going there to enjoy all the good food they have. The staff was so friendly I remember a female I think she was maybe the owner's wife or something would keep coming out and bringing us more bread and more bread I mean wow what service. It was nice and quiet and nobody bothered us. We were there for a while and enjoyed our food and the drink wow what a place.Vegetarian options: Middle Eastern food is very plant-basedDietary restrictions: A lot of good options to make it your own

Omg their baba ganoush is to die for! Like I could eat a gallon of it. We picked up takeout and everything we ordered was delicious. Is the inside of the restaurant particularly gorgeous and vibey? No. It’s exactly what it should be, a fantastic simple restaurant with delicious authentic food made by kind and loving people. Love it.

This restaurant was excellent!! We were really hungry and getting ready for our long drive home last night. This restaurant had high reviews and was nearby so we decided to give it a try for a to go dinner order. The restaurant is near the university in a small strip mall with a front parking lot that is free to park, unlike other spots that we attempted to go to that charged for parking since they were near the university. It's a family-owned restaurant with very hard-working, friendly staff. Our order was made very quickly and when we got home and checked, the order was perfect. To top it off, the flavors of each dish were delicious. Everyone of us four enjoyed our dishes and we all taste-tested each other's. It's too bad that we live an hour away. We would be coming here all of the time. Will definitely visit again when we are in the area. We ordered: Dolmas (this side comes with eight small dolmas packed with flavor) Large hummus (very flavorful, good hummus) Tabouli as the side for Mansaf (nice and lemony and very fresh) Mansaf (a large lamb shank covered with an herb yogurt sauce, and sitting on a buttery bed of golden rice) Chicken Shawarma plate (enough food for hubs. Nice portion of buttery, golden rice and chicken.) Kafta kebab plate (my daughter said this is very good) Vegetarian platter (my daughter loved this. She said the falafel was delicious. I tried a bite and it was very good.) Yummmm! what satisfying weeknight dinner. Seating inside is a bit small. There are two small tables in front of the counter. This seems mostly like an order-to-go type of establishment.
