The grilled proteins are perfectly seasoned, and the sides—especially the rice, hummus, and salads—taste like they’re made with real care.

“So flavorful and filling!!“

“These guys definitely know what they're doing with their combinations here! About the beef and chicken bowl and it was a really lovely combination! The rice and hummus and tabouli and made really go well together! Every item on its own is quite decent, but when you mix it all up and have it in one bite it's just beautiful!
Didn't even need the garlic sauce!

Also got the chicken egg roll on the side. It was nice and crunchy and the filling on the inside was flavorful. They cut it into two so you can see what's on the inside as well. So that's kind of cute. I were surprised how it didn't taste as greasy and oily even though it was fried. Definitely recommended.“

“Nice hidden gem in the middle ofan office park with several restaurants and a bar.

Lots of seating and fast casual food service.

There's lots of construction going on here so stay alert for available parking.“

“We had a group of ten gals for a book club get together. We were able to sit outside where it is quiet and we could discuss the book easily. Our server was so attentive with both our drink and dinner orders. The bar menu had something for everyone. Was a fabulous night thanks to the staff at Bar Traza.“
