Great place to get authentic Middle Eastern food. They have a smoking and non-smoking area with complimentary tea (which is delicious) and games. Worth the trip every time.

Great food, but you have to wait for food for quite a bit. Order on the phone ahead of time so you don’t have to sit and wait.

Food: Delicious food. Me and my friend had a Lamb Kabseh, a Chicken Shish Kabob Rice Plate, a bottle of Laziza and a cup of Turkish Coffee. The food was served with 2 bowls of salad and garlic/salsa sauce. The meat was soft and tender, the rice quite flavorful and the salad with a tinge of sourness. Just based on the food, I would have given 4.5 stars. They also serve delicious tea that is free of charge, but today it was not available.

Took 1.8 hours for the food to be served. We only ordered 6 plates too.There was just one other family in the restaurant, and they had already been served. There’s so many seats btw so I didn’t expect it to be that understaffed.

Simply put the best middle eastern food I have eaten. Everything is freshly made to order. As other posters have noted, dont go here for service or a romantic dinner but rather to enjoy some really good authentic middle eastern food. Food takes a while to be served, so plan accordingly. After our visit from nyc my wife is contemplating a day trip just to this place. It was that good.

Worst place to go and eat, food is ok but the service is beyond worst. Talking about management, they are in a wrong business and barely want to listen customers complain and understand their issue. Won’t suggest anyone and make sure you check your card to see extra charge.

The service was extremely delayed, the staff was impolite, and they showed no concern for expediting an order, even when hungry kids were involved. Every item, including the rice, fish, salad, and even the kebabs, had a very sour taste. The hummus had an unpleasant taste, indicating a problem with the ingredients. The food was unsatisfactory, and the service was unresponsive.

Guys please!!!! Check the Bill make sure you know what your order they double charging you for the forceful 18% gratuity the bigger the amount the bigger gratuity it will be for them. Please take care of your hard earned money they ask you to pay the bill at the counter without producing it so you don’t check the itemized bill. PAY ATTENTION TO THE BILL
