There's a new price model now where the kebabs are an extra $3 on top of the buffet in case people just want to get food through the buffet line without the made to order kebabs, but I'd never skip the juiciest white meat chicken in the game :) The chicken kebab remains the best I've ever had and the buffet selection is small but mighty. Our most recent trip the complementary iced tea tasted a bit funky but the kofta meatballs were tender and juicy and the spicy rice packed a punch. Always love the complementary pita bread as well.

Upon entering you are greeted with a warm smile, and food came in big family size portions recommended for sharing. It was perfect for my friends and I who were super hungry and wanted to try a few items. We started with the lamb samsa ( not pictured as I was too hungry) which was perfectly baked with a juicy spicy lamb that was super tender inside. We then also had this beef noodle dish which was the best dish of the night. Can't recall the them of it but, I'd definitely come back just for that dish. We also got the lamb shank Plov which was another favorite, and lastly the dumplings, which were our least favorite. The dumpling dough was a but too thick for our liking. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, especially with our server who was so kind and friendly, and so were her family. I'd definitely come back here again to try some of their other dishes next time.

Actually my friend brought it with them to their house and made me try it. So I came and got a burger today, the mushroom and Swiss burger. The burger was ok. It wasn't love at first bite, however the flavor was what was expected. The party was a little thin, but the meat was good and cooked well on the grill. The flavor was nice. I am definitely going to come back and try some other items on the menu and get the chicken again. I just read another review. I would like to clarify that even though this restaurant was small it was very clean. Every table was clean, and the people working behind the counter either had a hairnet or a hat on, as well as gloves. I appreciated how clean the restaurant was.

I ordered the double cheeseburger, and the patties were so thick that I had to remove one just to enjoy it; it was okay after that, but nothing particularly special stood out about the burgers. The atmosphere wasn't great either. The staff didn't seem friendly or welcoming; no greeting when we came in, and ordering felt awkward. On top of that, the place had a bad smell, which made it feel a little dirty. We originally planned to eat inside but ended up ordering to go because of this. The saving grace was the loaded fries OMG, so good! Honestly, I'd come back just for those. Maybe it was an off day, because I feel like this spot has potential to be good, so we might give it another chance in the future.

You could tell the brisket had been resting for quite a bit because it wasn't warm either. The Mac & cheese that I ordered as a part of this platter was also room temperature and "tart" -- not too sure if this is how it is regularly served but I'll pass next time. We had been eating small bites all day so thankfully we weren't famished when we ordered and I do appreciate the honesty of our server when she stated that this "1/3 lb beef brisket platter" would only be good enough for 1 person. I'm SO glad we didn't order another plate. I would hate wasting so much food. The location itself is spacious and there is ample parking for days when it may be crowded. We were the only diners there during our short time so it's hard to say when they may actually be busy. 2Taste may be great for those with an underdeveloped BBQ taste, but it's a pass for me.

It was clean, simple decor but tasteful, and plenty of room to sit about 40 people. I was there to meet someone for lunch, and it was her suggestion to meet at Board Bites. I was told it's a family owned Mediterranean restaurant. And I will say, the person who took our order was very engaged with us and truly nice. It did have a family feel while I was there. And everyone cared about my experience. I ordered the chicken shawarma bowl and it was very tasty. I'm that girl who likes dressing, and the sauce on my bowl was the perfect amount to not overwhelm the bowl. We were the first customers, but within minutes, the restaurant filled up. That speaks volumes to me about the food. I will definitely go back and try something new next time.

The samosas are a little bit flakier than ones that you may be used to. It was filled with peppery sautéed onions, a little bit of potato and ground beef if I'm not mistaken. The salmon kebabs were nice and big. Good flavor and flaky. The rice is an up charge so just keep that in mind. If you're ordering several different items, one portion can feed 2 to 3 people. My only tick is that I wish there were sauces included with everything. I thought I was supposed to get sauce, but I didn't get any. The food was good but definitely would've been better with it.

For one, staff seem to be trained well and stay around much longer nowadays while the kitchen staff are working much quicker and reliably to get your orders out. I used to regular have to ask for corrections but that hasn't been an issue of late. As for the food, they have seemingly doubled the size of their menu so there's much more for me to try out, but their classics like the Brisket, Philly Cheesesteak and especially the Zinger Fried Chicken Sandwich have seen marked improvements. That last comes out crispy, thick and with a spicy garlic mayo that's to die for. If they improve across the board like that it's a winner. This has definitely moved to deserve it's spot as a local institution I would recommend and if this trajectory continues, I'll probably be back later to bump up their rating.
