Last time we were in, I got to talking with our server and she asked which was my favorite on the vegetarian platter. I told her the red lentils. When my to-go box came out, she'd added a full extra serving of them. Nobody asked her to. That's the difference between a restaurant that's good and one you keep going back to. Three years of Friday nights and it hasn't slipped once.

We ordered the vegetarian platter as the main course with 2 proteins. We chose steak and salmon.. soft Ethiopian music lent great ambience. The children were so excited, that they ate with no regard to the level of spice. It was absolutely delightful! I recommend the platter if you have a party of 3 or more. You get 5 vegetables and 2 proteins- see photos. Highly recommended for something unit.

The first thing some of them do is copying the prices of the popular restaurants but far away from their quality of food, service and atmosphere. Vanak Restaurant is one of them. The result is when you go there for lunch on a Friday there will be only two tables one is yours and the other one is the owner of the restaurant smoking hukkah with a friend! The food was mediocre at best, koobideh was somewhat acceptable but beef barg was not half as good as it should be. The chicken was overcooked and tough. The service was at the same level as the food with lots of ups and downs. The only thing we truly enjoyed was their bread.

Our takeout order was actually ready a bit faster than we expected, and everything was meticulously packed. In fact, by the time we arrived home over an hour later, the food was still fresh and steaming hot--we didn't even have to reheat it! I ordered the Depanji, which featured perfectly spiced chicken and flat noodles. The chicken was incredibly tender and juicy, and you could easily tell the noodles were freshly homemade because they tasted so fresh. My friend had the Ladziou Rou, and the beef was phenomenally flavorful and melt-in-your-mouth tender. We also shared the amazing Samsas, which were packed with a savory, delicious filling, and the traditional naan. The naan was beautifully light and puffy--resembling a giant bialy but with a much softer, airier texture. Everything about our takeout experience was phenomenal. We had a fantastic meal and will absolutely be back again soon!

I noticed their Bib Gourmand listing and have been intrigued by their menu…read more Located on the back side of the strip mall, you are welcomed by a well maintained outdoor seating area . With the summer heat, it was impressive to see it all set up even on a slow weekday evening. Menu is limited and mainly meat. No seafood which is fine that they are staying true to the mission. For vegetarian options, extremely limited so probably will not return, sad to say. For my take out meal, the housemade wheat noodles ( spaghetti shape) with the dry seasoning was good. Eggplant appetizer with what seemed to be garlic chili sauce from a bottle and unripe tomatoes was unimpressive. Cucumber salad was very good but nothing uniquely special. Meh, based upon their other locations must be the tie in of the distinction.

Their soups have no flavor and basically watered down. The older lady who works there is extremely rude, condescending, and will ignore you when you have any questions or concerns! Food is really not worth the $$. Take your money and spend your time somewhere else. UPDATE: After reading my review the owner is at this point making up stories. I have no idea what this Too good order is she is mentioning. You must have me confused with someone else. I have come in to your cafe and ordered and sat and ate the food there once and picked up twice. To answer your question I tried your cafe three times hoping it would be better the next time and maybe it was just an off day. I kept supporting your business but each time the food was subpar so after 3 tries I was done. Only decent thing was the coffee. Most recently I went my kid asked me why the lady is rude and impatient with you? At this point I feel like the business is making up stories and defending themselves in order to avoid a negative review. I have seen your replies on Yelp and Google to anyone who gives you a negative review. You get defensive and guilt trip them into not supporting a small business. I have lived in the area for the last 50 years and always support small businesses when they deserve it. If you want a good review you have to earn it by being better. Your response sounds made up and very unprofessional.

I have been coming to Charcoal N Chill for over three years, including before the current…read moremanagement took over. Over that time, I've had many great experiences here and have recommended the place to numerous friends and family members. Unfortunately, my most recent experience left me disappointed. A couple of weeks ago, I was invited to attend a Friday evening event. I arrived as I normally would, only to discover there was a cover charge and a bouncer at the entrance. The cover charge itself was not the issue. What bothered me was how I was treated. During the interaction, the bouncer physically pushed me away from the entrance. I found that completely unnecessary and disrespectful. As a result, I asked to speak with the owner or someone from management because I did not feel comfortable discussing the situation with the bouncer, especially given how I had been treated. To my surprise, I was told that the owners had asked me to Zelle the cover charge. To be clear, I was never asking for a discount, exemption, or special treatment. I was simply trying to address the way I had been treated at the door and have a conversation with management. Over the years, I have spent a considerable amount of time and money at this establishment and have actively supported it by bringing many guests. I never expected preferential treatment because of that. What I do expect, however, is to be treated with basic respect and dignity. This review is not about the food, hookah, ambiance, or service inside the lounge, all of which I have genuinely enjoyed for years. It is about a customer experience and the choices made by management in handling that situation. A long-time customer who has consistently supported the business should not be made to feel dismissed or disrespected. I thought about this for more than ten days before posting because I genuinely enjoyed this place and did not want to leave a negative review. However, the experience stayed with me. Since then, I have stayed away despite having been a regular visitor. I sincerely hope management takes feedback like this seriously. Respect costs nothing, and it is often what customers remember most.

The staff and owners are really welcoming and make you feel comfortable the second you walk in. The vibe is what really makes it special though. Good music, good people, and they actually try to make sure everyone is having a good time. They'll even accommodate the music and play songs you like which makes it feel more personal and fun. Also not gonna lie, I really think they have one of the best DJs in town. The music and entertainment are always on point without it feeling too loud or chaotic. It's the perfect little neighborhood spot to chill with friends, have drinks, eat, and just enjoy yourself. Definitely one of those tucked away gems in a plaza that you end up going back to over and over again.
