    Great neighborhood restaurant. The food and ambience was amazing. We split the hummus with fresh pita and the fattoush salad. So fresh! I had the kafta  and my friend had the falafel 💋chef’s kiss. Great service as well.

    Cute and quiet restaurant. Love love love the cocktails, but the food was okay. The Baba Ghanoush was way too smoky for us, lamb kabob and falafel were pretty good.

    The server was amazing! She was very friendly and really helped with the menu being our first time there her name was Genesis. Everything that she suggested was really good and we really appreciated her really knowing the menu. She needs a raise !

    Service and Ambience were great! Genesis, our server, was really sweet and go us everything promptly. She’s the only reason that gets high stars from me. Food: we ordered Jajik, spicy potatoes and kibbeh. The spicy potatoes were not very flavorful but the other two weee good. The mains were ricotta pasta, lamb kabobs with rice, beet salad and chickpea fries. These were not good: meat was dry, beets overly sour, pasta too rich to be edible. The fries were good but sauce was once again too rich and not at all a good balance. They need to find balance in each dish.
