I heard about this place from a couple of people. I stopped by for a quick lunch and ordered Kibbeh and Chicken Shawarma. The Kibbeh was good, and the Chicken Shawarma was delicious. Great service! ⭐️
I’ll be back to try other things.

They have a second location across the street for takeout orders.
