“Wow! A+++ What a find! We came in on a Sunday night and we were just blown away by our meals. The fresh homemade ice tea was delicious and unique, the hummus and stuffed grape leaves were both super yummy. The kefta and chicken schwarma were both very good- every detail to the meal was homemade and very fresh. The garlic toum sauce was a great accent and the tahini was wonderful too! Homemade pickled vegetables with exotic flavors. The baklava was one of the best I’ve ever had. From beginning to end the entire meal was just outstanding! Clearly made by people who care! We felt transported to another place with the amazing flavors! If we lived in the area, we’d definitely be regulars here!

“My first time eating lunch at Ema was outstanding. I was meeting a colleague and wasn’t sure what to expect because we had a lot of work to cover. The entire staff was very helpful, courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. We received wonderful service and had a very healthy lunch. The food was great and all our salads were fresh and delicious.“

“Food was fresh and delicious, tasted very authentic! We were a party of 5 that all ordered a different dish and all was very good. Restaurant itself is a bit plain but it’s modern, clean and friendly service which is more important. Ordered the baklava at the end and it is GREAT! Thank you!“

“The food, atmosphere, and service were all exceptional! Everything, down to the drink names, perfectly complemented the ambiance. This is an absolutely beautiful place to enjoy dinner and great food. The shawarma rolls, pork chops, and Moroccan tagine were all outstanding. If you enjoy sweet and refreshing cocktails, I highly recommend the 'Gotta Have Faith.' Overall, I would definitely return to try more dishes and highly recommend visiting this unique spot. It’s truly a must-visit!“

“Petra Falafel is my favorite Middle Eastern restaurant in the area. Their chicken shawarma platter is a masterpiece, and the garlic, jalapeno, and habanero sauces are very tasty, be sure to order extras! Their portions are generous, often leaving me with leftovers for at least another full meal. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. We always order for pick up, but they do have a dining area and I believe they are also BYOB. Next time you are craving falafel, baba ghanoush or shawarma give Petra Falafel a try - you will not be disappointed!“

“First time visit and boy was it tasty! The baked chicken sandwich was amazing. Crunchy and the cheese on top was perfect. Friend of mine had the gyro trio, which he said was fantastic. Waitress was great and super nice. Gotta say overall great first time experience, well done guys!“

“I’ve lived less than a mile from this place for a decade and never tried it; tonight was the night. It’s a unique establishment - hookah lounge, banquet hall, bar. Walking in was a little confusing for first timers but we were quickly welcomed and seated at the bar. Drink pours were impressively heavy. Our food came out fast and was great. The cheese burek appetizer deserves special mention with its garlic and hot sauces! Our waiter/bartender was in full hustle mode on a busy Friday night but still found time to take good care of us and have a few short chats. Overall I’d highly recommend eating here. It’s a bit “different,” but who likes the same old thing over and over? I’ll be back.

Dietary restrictions: Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options here.

Parking: Parking in front and behind the building, one lot has a small curb to traverse. Not an issue for most vehicles.“

“Wild Pita is a gem for Assyrian cuisine. The guy at the front desk is super nice and down-to-earth, making you feel right at home. The shawarma plate? Absolute fire—perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with flavor. If you’re craving something delicious and authentic, this spot is a must-try.“

“This place *never* lets us down. The food is delicious, fresh and just so tasty. Their hummus is the BEST- they add some delicious garnishes on it. Best hummus I’ve ever had. Just too good and reliable. My kids love it too which is great.“

“My first time at the Modern Plate today. I was blown away by the beautiful dining and club room. The food is absolutely amazing and filling. The owner Ted is a very passionate man about his restaraunt, and I admire that. It absolutely shows that there is concern and care that goes into every corner of the Modern Plate. Now, I was here for an event in the club room, but rest assured, I WILL be coming here for just the dining experience and the food. I live about 50min away, but it is...THAT good. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful dinner and a night on the town.“

“My family and I had their chicken mandi and it was quite delicious, masha'Allah. The chicken was very tender and basically melted off the bone. The rice was very flavorful. Both myself, wife, and two young kids ate it all.

Parking: It's in a strip mall, so there is plenty of parking available.“

“SUPER LOVE THIS LITTLE GEM!!! Burgers, Fries, Salads, Chicken Pot Pie and Tomato Basil Soups, Salmon, etc. are amazing!!! Peppermint Bread Pudding is TO DIE FOR!!! Great service! Sadly, their one stall restroom is a bit distant. But their food makes me SOOOOO HAPPY!“
