Served with Pita Bread, Grilled So when I got home I find out there is only 4 Ground Beef kabob and 4 chicken Tikka And that was so embarrassing for me because I invited 5 people for lunch That was really bad experience“

“This was an unexpected and pleasant surprise. I usually go to a different restaurant for Middle Eastern food whenever I’m in El Cajon. But it was closed for remodeling, and in search of an alternative, I found this hidden gem. The gentleman who made the food was very welcoming and hospitable. The food was some of the tastiest Middle Eastern food I’ve ever had. Prices are very reasonable, portion size is big, service is great, and the food is delicious. This easily made my list of must go to restaurants whenever I’m in San Diego. I’m usually by the coastline, but I will gladly make the drive to El Cajon to come here. Also great to support local small businesses and Christian business owners. 🙏☦️“

“(Translated by Google) I advise all Arabs to try eating their money! Their best grill! In our eyes, the taste is Baghdad, the grilled chicken and sumo make it masgoof so that the smell of firewood has it, and the kebabs are crazy(Original)‫ أنصح كل العرب يجربون الاكل مالتهم! اطيب مشاوي عندهم! عيناً الطعم ابغداد، الدجاج المشوي والسمج يسووه مسگووف بحيث ريحة الحطب بيه ، والكباب ايجنن‬‎“

“Incredible food. Great price. Excellent service. Get the combo mosuaka plate (chicken/beef). The meat tastes like rib eye steak, tender and delicious. The Arabic salad should not be missed as well. It has garbanzo beans, beets and other yummy ingredients. All warm and fresh. We added the gyro meat on top of the salad. Highly recommended. unless you are a vegetarian. Don't forget hummus, baba ganoush and a beer. Truly a great value with high culinary--yet simple--taste and sensibility. Order at the counter, sit and enjoy the experience. PS. There is a secret menu. See my photo. It's a beef egg hot pan Iraqi dish called Chiileh Fry with the special bread. Ask for it!“
