The foods are flavourful. But portions are very small, and the menu is not handful. I got two meals for takeaway, one had barely a third of chicken leg with some potatoes and plain rice, and the biryani was just rice and salad, i didn't expect it to be a vegetarian dish.

Kurdish food is always so hard to find anywhere. It’s exotic, has a great variety of flavors and will take your taste buds for a ride. I love the Kurdish Salad (the bread is amazing with some Jaajik) and I like a side of the Dowjic soup (the lemon flavor is amazing). Definitely recommend some Kurdish tea to enjoy too. This place is great for lunch or dinner and the staff are so kind and friendly with recommendations.

Stellar food! Our first experience with Kurdish cuisine. Definitely the kind of place you know is authentic with a loyal, local clientele. Very casual atmosphere. Our dinner was outstanding and we will definitely be back! Warning: they close at 8 but put the closed sign on the door at 7:30 so arrive by 7 pm at the latest.

Came across this restaurant at random and ordered to go. The staff were so kind, warm, and welcoming. The food was phenomenal!!! Hands down some of the best chicken kabab I’ve had in a while, perfect external crisp yet inside moist and full of flavor. Also got the stuffed eggplant dish which was also very good. I am looking forward to eating here again !

Everything we had was amazing and I’ll be back to try everything I didn’t. Was especially pleased with the atmosphere and I wouldn’t pass on the baklava which was delightful

First time and can’t say anything bad about it! The feta was fresh and melted in my mouth, the tabuli was crisp and fresh, and my entree was hot and fried perfectly! Highly recommend.

My friend and I set out for food with no particular destination in mind but were quite pleased in finding this restaurant. The food was delicious- incredibly flavorful. The salad and bread before the entre were super fresh and light.

Even though the hummus and the lentil soup were good the Chicken Tawa, their weekend signature dish, or its broth, was WAY too salty to the point of being inedible! Portions are small. For almost $30 for the hummus and Chicken Tawa (which comes with a side, I chose the soup) I find it overpriced. Disappointing considering the soup and hummus were spot on. Not sure if I can believe these other reviews are real considering the signature dish was so off and inedible
