The food were so good!! I couldn’t take pictures of other food that my husband ordered (because he couldn’t wait to try lol) but they were delicious too! We ordered grape leaves, lamb kabab with rice, samosa and Jordanian Mansaf. We will definitely go back 😋

Nayef is one of a kind. We had the opportunity to talk to him and hear his story. He is very friendly and welcoming. His food is all homemade and fresh. This was the best mediterranean food I have ever had. His falafel was moist and delicious and is incomparable to any other restaurants. I highly recommend this restaurant!!

Nayef is the owner of the restaurant - he is generous, warm, and makes incredibly authentic Mediterranean food. Quality, great service, and authenticity are some of the few amazing things you will experience at Al Rayan. I will be back!

This is the kind of restaurant every community needs. The food is consistently fresh, delicious, and affordable, but what makes this place truly stand out is the hospitality. The owner goes out of his way to make people feel welcome, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his guests.

Supporting this restaurant means enjoying a great meal while also supporting someone who brings real warmth and kindness to the community.

The food is adequate but there is a heavy smoky smell when you first walk in and the owner, although working by himself and probably exhausted, was quite rude to my table and the one next to us.

Beginning to end, everything was delicious and delightful. We started with the stuffed grape leaves, had the vegetable curry, and moujodreah entrees, and baklava and namoura, and everything was prepared fresh, came out hot, and was absolutely amazing. The owner? was friendly and fun, and did everything himself. Cannot recommend Al Ryan enough! We will definitely be back.

Delicious, perfectly cooked mujadera. So wonderful to happen upon this little place. Also had pistachio baklava and it was so good I got a slice of the walnut baklava to take home for later. A jewel of a place.
