THIS FOOD IS AMAZINGGGGG!!!! the service was perfect the workers are super nice ! and its just a beautiful restaurant!
I order delivery from here often. My favorite is the Tunisian grilled chicken kabob with couscous, but I also like their falafel and hummus. Occasionally, I treat myself to the baklava (on cheat days). Not a big fan of their green salads, but everything else I've ordered has been pretty good. Again, I order from here often.
I'm blown away by how good the food was and the fact that dine in was empty when we came. I got the mixed kebob platter and omfg the lamb made me shed a tear. The chicken was also outstanding and I enjoyed my first kofta and the beef was good too. The seasoning on the whole dish was perfect and it was SO MUCH FOOD! The platter came with hummus, salad, and pita which were f*cking delicious. Creating your own perfect bite into a pita pocket is something special. Another cool perk is BYOB so we came in with a six pack of Two Robbers from the bottle shop around the corner and they were cool about it. We finished off with baklava and the FIG was beautiful, it wasn't too syrupy which sometimes can happen. I'm sure they're also great for takeout, we saw a bunch of people come by to pick up their orders. Can't wait to come back and try everything else on the menu.
Work lunch that now received a 5 stars because everything was delicious! I stayed away from the chicken kebab since it was very dry last time. Ordered the shrimp salad this time and it tasted great! Perfect amount of shrimp which were grilled to perfection. A very filling salad! Ordered the same app where it came with a little bit of everything and just like last time it did not disappoint at all. The pita bread is extremely soft and the baba ghanoush was outstanding.
Very yummy food that was good portion size. My meal came quickly through delivery service. Healthy and tasty option.
