Great Iraqi food. A bit too spicy for my taste. Generous quantities.

Live music was so loud we evacuated. Suggestions to lower the volume were completely ignored. Will never go back.

I was there for an event the other night. I let the staff at the front know that I was vegan in case I should have to order something different from the set menu. But they were so kind and accommodating, they made me my very own veggie platter. Everything was so delicious too! I will definitely be back for dinner. Restaurants that go above and beyond like this definitely leave an impression on me. Thank you for they delicious veggie platter and kind service.

Vegetarian options: The vegetarian options are clearly marked on the menu. The Hummus is a must! Very creamy and delicious.

The food here is delicious. Great value for what you pay. Kabob is so delicious and the rice is amazing. Every meat I had was juicy and tender. Perfect bread and appetizers.

Service is also great. Everyone is kind.

The Lamb Shank was to die for! It was soo soo good. I had never had Labneh before and it was great too. Everything was fantastic! They weren’t busy on a Friday night but I’m assuming that was because of the construction going on in the strip mall. I highly recommend this place! (Sorry the photos of the food are partially eaten. We dug right in but when we realized how good it was we knew we needed to leave a review!)

The food here is bursting with flavor. It is one of my absolute favorites in Escondido. They also deliver on value as the portions are huge. One entree can feed me for 2-3 meals.

The chicken kofta lunch special is my favorite meal in all of San Diego. It gets pricey going there outside of lunch so I would stick to lunch only!

Buffalo ? ? wings ? way to spicy ?

The food is pretty good, and one of the waiters was polite (however, the other, was not). We ordered the #2 combo and there was plenty of food for four people so the value was also good. We went for dinner on a Saturday night without a reservation, and there was no wait time, and there was parking. I do recommend you go give it a try!
