Amazing family operating the restaurant. Serving amazing food.
I really enjoyed the chat with the owners, as much as I enjoyed the food. Clean beautiful place. Vegetarian options.
Thank you so much, wishing you all the best.

By far the best food I had in Victoria, Ahmed and Sondus run a tight ship and the community seems to know it! Ahmed suggested getting the lamb shank the first time I visited and he was so real for that. I also tried the hummus with pita, falafel, and the chicken with rice. All of their food was awesome and they don't stock Coca Cola products for obvious reasons!

Enjoyed a delicious dinner here - what a great addition to the neighbourhood! Staff were friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent. Can't wait to try more of the menu, and can see the $10 falafel on Mondays becoming a regular habit. Get the garlic sauce, you're welcome.
