The cuisine is equally impressive, featuring dishes like the stuffed lamb neck with rice, which boasts out-of-this-world spices and tender, juicy meat.

The atmosphere is simple and unpretentious, focused on great food served in abundance.
The platters are massive, designed for sharing, showcasing classic Middle Eastern hospitality. Fluffy basmati rice is paired with tender, slow-cooked meats that fall off the bone, rich with spices and flavor. Creamy sauces add depth, while fresh salad and tangy dips balance everything perfectly. There’s no rush here—this is the kind of food to enjoy with family and friends, creating lasting memories. The old-school setting gives it a charm that modern spots often lack.
If looking for authentic, traditional flavors and generous portions in a down-to-earth setting, this is the spot. The owner is recognized for his personal touch and recommendations, helping guests discover amazing combinations, like pairing rice with yogurt. Old School truly stands out as a hidden gem for anyone who appreciates Middle Eastern comfort food done right.
