We recently visited this restaurant with my wife and kids, and we absolutely loved it! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere. A few different staff members came by during our meal just to make sure everything was perfect, which made us feel truly cared for. The service was friendly, attentive, and genuine. It’s rare to find a place that makes families feel so comfortable. The food was delicious, and the environment was clean and cozy. We’ll definitely be coming back again soon. Highly recommended!

Best the best ♥️
This restaurant is a true gem in Houston! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The breakfast here is hands-down the best Middle Eastern breakfast I’ve ever had—fresh, flavorful, and authentic. Every bite was perfection!
The hookah experience was equally incredible. The flavors were smooth and rich, creating the perfect vibe for a relaxing meal.
I have to give a special mention to the exceptional Algerian water—her hospitality was beyond words. She welcomed us with the biggest smile, made sure we were comfortable, and went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. She truly sets this place apart.
If you’re in Houston and looking for a place that serves amazing food, great hookah, and outstanding service, this is the spot! Highly recommend!

It was my first visit, I was excited and ready to go try other dishes! First, the smoothies are all natural fruit options that you can taste. I have tried shawarma at a handful of places, and here is my favorite!!! The flavor and authenticity are unmatched. My husband is from Saudi and had a nostalgic reminder of home visiting the establishment.

Smokehouse, food is okay, but gyro plate the meat is very dry, tabouli salad is the best. The female server is awesome friendly and very attentive.

I tried to place an online order on 4/27/24. Apparently they were closed for cleaning. The order went through and my credit card was charged, but them being closed, of course I couldn't get my order. I have been calling and calling but nobody answers!

Ordered the bogo burger and fry on Uber. Worst food ever. I had more bread than burger, not even enough meat to be called a patty. It was burger and fries but I only got two burgers. Should’ve have onions, jalapeños, lettuce, and tomato. Only have meat, an iota of cheese but only on one of them (why not do both as they’re supposed to be?) and a bun to meat ratio that not even Albert Einstein could comprehend. Meat is salty and buns burnt. I’ll never order here again. I get it’s late and you’re ready to go home but can I at least get all of my nasty food rather than some?
