Quick and friendly service. DELICIOUS food! We got the Meat Mezza and the Majdras with lamb schwarma and loved every bite! The owner was so welcoming and had great recommendations! While we did choose meat option, there were tons of vegetarian options to pick from as well. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a tasty bite to eat!

I'm always sad to write a terrible review, but it's the truth of my experience here. I ordered the artichoke casserole, and the $19 entrée included artichoke hearts from a can swimming in plain unseasoned tomato sauce that also tasted like it was straight from a can, with a side of plain white rice.

It was a meal that included no culinary heart and left me incredibly disappointed. These ingredients have the potential to be amazing, but sadly this restaurant is taking shortcuts and I cannot recommend it.

Good food, authentic. The interior and service is also authentic, which may not be so good. No AC inside. I was overcharged, I’m not sure if that was a mistake or it was intentional.

I’m a sucker for a Mediterranean sampler plate. This place had a unique twist of some of my favorites. The falafel was lighter in color than I’m accustomed to and the only thing that wasn’t as good as other places was the grape leaves. The chicken shawarma and beef beef Kafka had nice spicing and complimented the meat mezza plate. I still must give credit where it’s due. My surrogate Palestinian family in high school introduced me to these dishes and I doubt anybody will ever impress me more than those original recipes from Maha. May God Bless the Mediterranean Sea and its peoples.

The food was very good. The veggie kabob was unreal. The rice is made with some herb/ingredient that makes it very tasty. The warm pita bread is to die for. It is a must try, especially for someone who is plant-based. The owner was funny and charismatic. A cool experience. Go and see for yourself!

Place is really good and the food is damn amazing. Its a Lebanese and Syrian cuisine and the food tastes fresh and it’s really delicious.
Average a couple would spend 50-60$ here. Everything we ordered was amazing. I would really would love to visit here.
Owner is realtor friendly and I didn’t have time to go to bar section. Baklava was amazing. I loved chicken lentil soup. Falafel so was fresh and crispy and hummus was really tasty and never had a hummus which was that tasty. Tahini was good.
I even ordered chicken kabab, I felt chicken was bit hard, but rest all food was amazing. Chicken lentil soup had a lot of chicken pieces and would love to try again. They give a good amount of salad and pita bread was big enough to make your tummy full.
Overall the place is amazing and food was very delicious and I would recommend everyone to visit here for the authentic Lebanese Syrian food.

We came here because we were still hungry after grabbing a small bite. I actually came here before because I was not disappointed with my last visit. The food was very filling and delicious. The lot of us were hungry and ordered The Meat Combo. I also ordered a side of garlic sauce on the side because I love extra garlic. As a result, expectations were met, we all left happy, full and very satisfied. I would definitely recommend coming here for the food. The environment felt like they are going through a renovation so expect dining in to be tight and not very comfy.
