We recently had the pleasure of experiencing the culinary work of the new chef, Abu Mohammed, and we were truly impressed. The quality of the food has noticeably improved—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Chef Abu Mohammed clearly takes pride in his work, and it shows in every dish.
His attention to detail and authentic touch bring a special warmth to the dining experience.
A big thank you to him for the delicious meals. Keep up the great work!

Came here after a late night flight. T
hough the Resturant was closed, the owner went out of the way to open the kitchen back up and made fresh and delicious food. Ordered the Kofta kabob and the mix grill. This is a hidden gem in the bag area. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
