Everything was 10 out of 10.
This is my fourth time and the food never fails me.... especially the French fries š OMG!!!!
This hyper-local establishment is run by one of the nicest and talented chefs around Queens who really flys under the radar. He cooks with skill and love which leaves the food super tasty. I have had a variety of dishes - falafel, lamb chops, mixed grilled platter, salads, salmon, etc. The flourless chocolate cake should not be missed. He even serves brunch on the weekends. The place is filled with colorful locals from the neighborhood. Donāt come in a rush as nothing except the desserts are pre-made - everything is cooked to order.
The owner was really kind and welcoming, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the food didnāt meet expectations this time. The rice had a dry, plastic-like weird texture, and the chicken was undercooked, hard, and had a strange smell. There was no sauce or seasoning, so everything tasted bland. Hopefully next time Iāll try something else from the menu and wonāt be disappointed.
Oh wow! This place is a 10/10ānot New York style service so go with a bit of patience, but the cook and host are AMAZING people. Really made sure we had a perfect meal. Burger 10/10 and the artichoke chicken 1162829/10. Very clean and tasty! We also enjoyed perfect falafel and hummus platter for appetizers. Also in the economy some of the best prices weāve dined out on! This will be a regular spot for life
The service is exceptional. The food is delicious. Don't worry about the portions they are very generous. Cozy place to get delicious falafel and more.
Magnificent food from a magnificent person

Absolutely fantastic food. Fries had a perfect crunch, salad dressing was so fresh and the kebabs were juicy. Though the highlight really is the owner, a true gem of a man the world needs more of.

Highly recommend for a small and friendly Mediterranean eatery. We got assorted dips and kebabs. Kebab plate was one of the best Iāve had, perfectly cooked and very flavorful. Cozy ambiance and wonderfully friendly owner! āEnter as strangers, leave as friends!ā
