If there is less than a star rating then this place surly deserves it. I had my share of middle Eastern food to know when it is good and when it is bad. This place still cant make it ti bad!!! I gor some kunafeh, hareesa and baklava, just dessert that the owner just promised it is fresh. Got home tried a bite of each, they used old old oil, may be after the frying that oil becomes the for desert but it has a strong taste that made me throw up tge minute I bit on it. Horrible. Over charge is one thing but selling you this garbage is a different dimension of bad restaurants!

had such a great experience at this restaurant. Their homemade dolma is incredible, honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. So flavorful, fresh, and perfectly made. I highly recommend trying it!

Everything we ordered was delicious: the salad, the combo plates, the meat, the rice, all cooked so well and full of flavor. The bread was fresh and warm, and the carrot juice was surprisingly good too.

Overall, amazing food and great quality. I definitely recommend this place and will be coming back!

This place will take you back to Middle East. Just sit back and relax. Then enjoy the hummus with fresh pita bread. The meal was well prepared. Simple, well made, and delicious.
