Phenomenally authentic and delicious.
From an atmosphere, it's a Middle Eastern bodega with unique finds. The dining area is nondescript and placed in the front of the store. Inside is smoky... not much ventilation. Cashier was helpful and friendly. Probably better suited for takeout, but not fast food. Made fresh and took about 25 minutes after I called in the order.
We ordered 3 different chicken wraps: Tika, kebab, and schwarma. Added in a falafel platter, lamb skewer, and baba ghanoush. The Tika and kebab were ranked highest. Kebab has a more unique sausage like style. My daughter didn't enjoy pickles and onions in the wraps, but that's the authentic factor I enjoyed. I always want to like baba ghanoush... but it has a smoky flavor I don't like. Lamb was well done.
The dessert options varied, so we opted for the most unique looking option. It was ghee, brown sugar, and toasted coconut. It smelled like the coconut Girl Scout cookies, but the texture felt like it was just spoonfuls of fat. So we all only had a small sample and not eager to finish it off.
I'd definitely return, as I like supporting small, authentic restaurants. It's priced well, delicious, and good service. read more
