Food was mediocre and service was very slow. Prices were high for the quality and quantity of food. The host was very unfriendly upon entry and leaving the restaurant. Not sure why the belly dancer did not come on until 9 PM when many have left. This restaurant was much better years ago - not sure what happened.

First time dining here. The food was delicious. We started with the hummus which was the best I have had and also baba ghannouj which was so tasty. We ordered chicken skewers over rice for our main course. It was not very busy for lunch but we had a wonderful experience. Accommodating waiter. We will be back. Definitely recommend.
