I recently ordered the lamb haneeth, but unfortunately, it had an unpleasant smell and seemed stale. When I raised my concerns with the owner, the response was less than helpful, and I was offered only a small $3 discount, which I felt didn't address the issue. I decided to pay the bill and leave, but I hope the restaurant takes feedback more seriously to improve their food quality and customer service in the future.

Had a great dining experience here. We sampled the mutapq, lamb fahsa, and chicken agda. All were incredibly flavorful and came with plenty of food. The bread compliments the food perfectly but is not as good if you're going to order to go. The fahsa came out bubbling hot!

I ordered a chicken kebab where the meat was supposed to come in marinated cubes. Instead, I got chicken fillets that were grilled with no marinade or seasoning. The chicken was completely bland. I didn't notice at first, because I ordered it "to go"/takeout. I only realized what happened when I got home and took the food out of the bag.

Not sure if I’ve gone on a bad day, but boy was it a bad experience.
- the menu had names but not explanations of what the food is, what the meal contained and what it comes with.
-the host was clueless on what’s on the menu and what the names meant. The owner/manager had an extremely stiff and unwelcoming attitude
-the service was so bad, I got up and grabbed utensils for myself and the family because the host didn’t provide them even after serving the food.
- the food was NOT fresh! The meat, in our case we ordered different chicken platters and all, along with rice were warmed up and not cooked fresh.
My brother was battling with chicken kabobs because they were so dry.
My wife didn’t get her order because they overlooked it and thankfully they did, because we asked for it to be canceled and left.

I would not recommend this place and it’s one and done for me and the family.
Quite the disappointment.

I order a large biryani chicken plate for 25$ for myself, I was shocked when i saw it, very small portion and even presentation is bad. I spent 50$ for me and my wife for a food worth 20$ max.
