The app sampler really opened my eyes beyond the hummus standard and paired well with the complimentary bread basket but even better with the entree when it arrived.

I will definitely be going back regularly, and it's going to be difficult to order anything else.

I loved the meze platter since there was a sampling of 5 of their different appetizers. Everything on the platter tasted very fresh and was delicious. The ali nazik was a bit more lackluster: the side salad could have been fresher and the grilled jalapeño was only half grilled (it tasted raw); the rice was a little mushy; and the lamb was a bit over seasoned. Service was a bit slow, and you have to wave down the one server at times since she was hidden behind the front counter most of the time. While I would not go out of my way to return here, I would come back for a quick meal if I was already in the area!

I learned that the chef is from Adana and whoever takes over for the rest of the day is from different nationalities. I had a chat with another person who is from Jordan. I love the diversity at this restaurant and the food is delicious! I will be back to sample more dishes.

We always get really great service and love exploring new things on the menu. This is a great place to come on a date or with your family.

The only thing I wish they would do differently is serve the bread hot, not room temperature, I think it would really elevate the experience.

Our waiter was attentive and even had great suggestions such as the mixed grill for one so my husband could try a variety of the meats. Very welcoming staff. Ambiance: it felt like I was on a vacation. You step into a cozy atmosphere with pretty lighting and art. Beautiful place for a date night or group of friends. Food: tasty and refreshing. You get a-lot of food so worth the price. The complimentary bread was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, loved the spicy sauce. Appetizer the Shrimp Garlic was fantastic.

What seemed like the owner was incredibly kind and accommodating as we were looking through the menu and while we were eating. She offered for us to try a drink before ordering since she knew it was something maybe not everyone would enjoy, but my husband did! My husband got the falafel wrap and I got the lamb wrap. Both were flavorful and a good portion size. The lamb was a tiny bit chewy on some pieces, which is why I'm saying 4 stars. However, the baklava was the by far star of the meal - it was excellent! They have a cute covered seating area near the truck that was decked out for the holidays, so it was certainly an enjoyable space to have a meal in!

They've got a bunch of wraps to go- all of which are reasonably priced, large, fresh and delicious. The food truck wasn't busy when I went, so I had no wait, and enjoyed the shaded chair by the window while the food was prepared. I was also pleased to see that Istanbul Street Foods offers a large variety of Turkish drinks. Unfortunately, their Turkish Coffee isn't served with a wok full of sand. For dessert, they have one option- Baklava. But that's the only option they need. It's amazing. Just try it. In all, this place offers fast Turkish food at a convenient spot. It's much, much, much better than the McD's it's next to!

They use real fire to cook your food and you can see it all happen behind a (giant and hot) piece of glass where a skilled cook is diligently turning skewer after skewer of expertly seasoned meats. But the real star of the show here? The salad. Get it with their pomegranate molasses dressing and you'll understand why this place is so addicting. The service and atmosphere are family friendly, just like the family that owns and operates this place. Beautiful people serving beautiful people. Just remember: quality fresh food takes a few extra minutes to prepare! So grab a plate of hummus while your meal is made to order. Sahtein!

Zaatar Lebanese Grill is where we go when we don't feel like cooking, or if my mom is out of town. Located in the Silk Road Heritage District this place is serving up delicious Lebanese staples all day long. Grab an ice cold rose tea and some hummus bi lahme, hot pita bread, and a dish of your choice. Just make sure it comes with their homemade thin-sliced fries. They're next level if you like your fries crispy. Our kids love it here, so it's a no-brainer for family dinners but they also have a great lunch menu with curated bowls that are healthy and satisfying.

Both were tasty and were very similar in taste from our recent visit to Turkey. Lots of flavor going on at the same time and I have developed such a taste for the traditional rice. Light and flaky. I believe the owners are Arabic, but not actually Lebanese. Although we have traveled to the middle east, but not to Lebanon, I cannot say for certain if it is authentic or not. What I can say is the food was delicious and definitely used some of the same spices we are familiar with. The inside dining was for smaller parties of less than 6, and fit our needs on this visit.

Ladino is probably one of my favorite restaurants in the city by far!…read more I've had the privilege to visit Ladino maybe four or five times, and every time I come back, they keep getting better. They recently received a Bib Gourmand from Michelin for good quality and value. Frankly I think they deserve a star, but that's just me. Ladino is located at The Pearl and making a reservation through Open Table is a must! They book up days in advance, so I encourage you to reserve a table ahead of time. They specialize in small tapas style plates, so if you are coming with a group you can order a couple of items to share. They also have a few excellent main dishes, but my favorite is the steak. From the smaller plates I think I've tried almost everything and there hasn't been one I didn't love. However the hummus is a must and the feta cheese is always a winner when I bring new people to Ladino. The staff here is outstanding! The level of service they offer is unbelievable. They truly make sure you have an outstanding experience during your visit, and that level of service is hard to find. Whether you are looking to try a new place or celebrate an anniversary, do yourself a favor and make a reservation at Ladino.
