These guys make it their mission to sling culinary masterpieces out of their kitchen. Amazing, flavorful food and lots of variety, and very affordable. It is always my go-to in Rockford. If you haven't stopped in here to eat yet, you are seriously doing yourself a disservice.

This is the “side” of fries that came with my meal. There’s like 7 fries.

Falafel sandwich and fries, take-out. The sandwich was delicious. It was made in a way that didn't leak sauce or ingredients all over the table. The fries were decent. The order was ready when they said it would be.

Worst Shwarama I've ever had! Dry no taste.. served like a burrito. Lacking hummus or tahini no picked veggies. Lacks atmosphere and the counter help is in kitchen when needed. Please learn how to cook without so much Salt...if you have low blood pressure this is the place Lentil soup tasted like a Salt lock.Won't be back.. Rockford needs a Naf Naf grill!!

Excellent and affordable place to eat. Try their Shawarma, Humus and Grape leaf stuffing.Vegetarian options: Salad & other type of vegetables
We ordered by phone and then went to pick it up and left. When we got home, it was completely the wrong order. We called them again, and they blamed us for ordering wrong.

I really like this place. I always get it to go and have never actually eaten inside the restaurant, so I can't really comment on the service. But it's nice inside. I always get the tandoori chicken, I absolutely love it. I don't know how authentic it is, but it's really good. Do yourself a favor and try it.
Stopped In w my friend who sprung for our dinner and she said it was the best $30 she's spent at a restaurant in a long time. Our server Deb was so gracious and patient helping us to decide what to try. We chose the Greek salad and Trio which was plenty for the 2 of us. Wished we had taken photos as it was a beautiful presentation. Perfectly herbed and spiced and tender. I agree there should be a long line at this gem!

Clean and smelled good as soon as I walked in. The rice is off the chain. Falafel is tasty and the best baba ganush I've ever had. Will definitely be back!
Nice staff, funcky smell like cleaning solution. The chicken schawarma and rice were flavorful and decent portion, the beef schawarma wasn’t that great and portion of beef was small. Fries were pretty good. I’d probably go back but would also look for another option in the area when back.
