We sat on the patio, overlooking the golf course with a great view of the surrounding area and hills. I definitely recommend Bar Traza and Zach!“

“Shaks came recommended to us by our wedding photographer. Upon finding out they were Armenian Lebanese (same as my family!), we knew we would book with them. As we lived out of the country, our parents went to the menu tasting and had the time of their lives. They came back raving about the place and said we have to book. Totally didn't understand the assignment of narrowing down the menu items we should have on the big day, lol. but that's a testament to how good the food is (especially the fresh falafel). Andrew was so helpful on calls, as he is very busy and emails weren't the best method of communication, and answered all of our questions, worked within our parameters and with a ton of integrity. The team was a delight on the day of and worked their tails off in the kitchen with a smile and in front of the guests. The food was a hit with the guest and I am still thinking about the garlic that I'm sure I smelled like on the wedding night because I just couldn't get enough, lol. The leftovers were awesome to have and to share with guests, too. We will be visiting Shak's when we're in the area as a nostalgia trip!!“

“Great service too! My mouth watered the entire time and was completely satiated and beyond happy with all that we ate! New menu apparently, but I gotta get back before they change it again!“

“Fantastic new place in town. Just went by tonight and got some of everything to try it all out. Fantastic food with great flavor, excellent service too! I was sad when Skewers went away, loved that place but Tiko Tiko is definitely a worthy replacement! I will definitely be back soon!“

“We popped in for a quick dinner and it was delicious and big portions! I had the chicken swarma plate and the veggies were perfect the sauce was so good! Can’t wait to go back!“

“This place has excellent food and wine. Super cool staff. I’ve been before and we’ll be back again. Killer outdoor spot to eat also. I highly recommend it.“

“Best service every time I come in! The whole crew is very friendly and helpful. So much that Last time Irma helped me out she was kind enough to let me have her meal for the day that they provide employees. I had already ordered my food and was ready to pay and realized they were no longer excepting cash only card and I had only cash on me so she said it's okay. and allowed me to take my food.🙏🏽 wow it's hard to find nice people doing nice things nowadays. the fact that she did that made my day. thank you Irma‼🙏🏽“

“Meat is good. Wrap is good. The sandwich needs to be served on a real, in-store baked pita bread. And they need to give away their t-shirt if you spend over $20. ;-)“
