"My sister-in-law ordered the chicken kebab and was informed it would take at least 25 minutes to prepare. While I understand that some dishes require time, this should ideally be noted on the menu. We ordered baba ganoush with vegetables, chicken kebab, two lamb tagines, and chicken shawarma. The baba ganoush was quite tasty, but it only came with one pita, which wasn’t enough for our group of four. We decided to order an extra serving, only to receive four pitas, which seemed pre-made and lacked flavor, although their texture was decent.
The vegetable portion was disappointing for $6, as it primarily consisted of regular radishes with just a couple of slivers of watermelon radishes. However, we thoroughly enjoyed the lamb tagine; it was flavorful and perfectly cooked, and I would definitely order it again. The chicken dishes were also quite good, though a bit heavy on the onions as a side. Unfortunately, the rice was wet, overcooked, and bland—lacking any real flavor.
The service could have been better. The staff wasn't very attentive and had little knowledge of the dishes beyond what was written in the menu, leaving many of our questions unanswered. We also found the temperature in the area where we were seated quite uncomfortable, which made us rush through our meal rather than enjoy a leisurely dining experience. The back half of the restaurant, in contrast, was much cooler.
In summary, while the food was generally good, I think next time I would opt for takeout rather than dining in."
