    A hole in the wall buffet. Food was amazing and service was friendly. The buffet selection doesn't have much variety but the quality makes up for that. All in all, give it a try you won't regret it.

    Lamb shank
    Timothy T.

    Quaint single family owned restaurant that serves all you can eat buffet style Mediterranean food. The selection isn't the biggest but the food quality was excellent. Went on a Sunday evening and they have a salad bar and protein bar with two types of basmati rice, three types of chicken, gyro meat and grilled veggies. They also have tea you can ask for that's absolutely floral and heart warming free of charge. You can ask for a lamb shank for an extra fee of $12 and it's huge and falls off the bone. Highly recommend their smoked rotisserie chicken, combination basmati rice, rice pudding, meatball/chickpea stew and cucumber yogurt sauce. Overall Service 9/10 Food 7/10 Cleanliness 7/10

    The buffet
    Ana P.

    This place is great, a true hidden gem. I pass this place all the time and cant believe I never stopped by. This place has all you can eat buffet but also offer a la carte and take-out service. This place is small and humble but the food is amazing. The decor is outdated but dont let that fool you because that does not keep people from coming to eat here. I went on a saturday morning and the place was busy when i walked in. I got a table so no problem but as time went on i keep seeing more and more people walk in and all the tables were full. When the tables got full people would leave their name on the wait list for a table and before i left around 2pm there were maybe 4 people on that list. This place seems to be a social gathering place for the community because many people walking in would recognize a random person from a different table and they would say hi shake hands and some of them would even sit down with them to eat. Right before the place got wait listed several individuals would come into the restaurant and would sit wherever there was an open seat. Example I was by myself in a table with 3 open chairs and i had 2 random people who i never seen before sit down with me to eat. I only experience that in some restaurants outside of the us but honestly I kind of like it that way because you can get to know other people and their culture better by doing that. That day i went i probably saw 3 other tables of families have two complete strangers sit with them because there was no other room to sit. I think that is kinda cool but if its not your thing you ben warned. From what I saw the popular drink of choice is hot tea but they have drinks in cans from the fridge in the back. No fountain drinks so keep that in mind also no facemask or social distancing at the time of this review in the time of Covid october 2021. There was only one waitress in the whole restaurant and she was also the cashier so bring your understanding that she is doing her best to take care of everyone. Parking is free just find any spot in the parking lot but some businesses have a 'customer only' parking signs so watch out for those. The restaurant is closed on sundays so plan ahead. The food itself was tasty and well seasoned. The variety may not be the biggest but it makes up for it by how fresh it is made right there infront of you. You can see ino the kitchen from anywhere in the restaurant and you see the chefs making and grilling everything, the food goes straight from the stove to the buffet trays. The day I went the restaurant was constantly busy that food keept being made so it was always fresh and never dried out from sitting under the heat lamps like in other places. They have 2 kinds of rice, they have chicken, beef and two kinds of soup. I am not sure what each item was called because they have no lables on anything so if you have food allergies or cant eat certain things i would suggest coming here with caution on that department. Looking at previous reviews it looks like the restaurant changes its menu from time to time but i ate at the buffet so at this time I cannot confirm the items available. Also for one adult the buffet was $13.99 plus tax and it seems that is the everyday price, I think that is fair compare to how much other buffets charge that have more food choices.

    From my corner spot facing the FRESH buffet.

The varied menu and the price point were just right. You pick up a cafeteria tray and point to what you'd like. I opted for the 6 item veggie plate. Portions were very filling! I tried a rocket salad, pita bread, beet salad, lentil soup, hummus and chickpea salad. In other words, a feast!! The food was very good. I also opted for a Diet Pepsi and a baklava. The salads were crispy and delicious - I loved the vinaigrette dressing which was perfectly tart. I wish I'd tried the coffee with my dessert - the baklava was a bit dry. I wish they'd opened a private side room for our party. Our table felt a bit cramped and it was a challenge to scoot into the very long booth seat which was closed off where they pushed tables together. On the whole, a really nice place and I'd definitely return!

I knew whatever I ordered that it was going to taste great. I decided with the 2-meat combo Shawarma Plate with chicken and lamb (spicy hot). This meal brought me so much joy. The meat was seasoned and cooked well. The serving size was very generous so you're definitely getting your money's worth. Each meal with hummus and pita. For dessert, we tried the Baklava Sundae; chef's kiss. I'm not sure what kind of ice cream flavor it was (did not taste like pistachio), but it was amazing. It was very light, semi sweet and had pieces of pistachio inside. Definitely 1 of 1. Our server was amazing, and knowledgeable about the menu. She didn't steer us wrong on any of the recommendations. This place is a must any time I'm in Arlington.

Their food is always so pretty and fresh, whether you eat in the restaurant or get delivery/takeout. The restaurant is very cozy and cute inside, not big, but you could fit a good sized group in here (I'd call ahead). Order anything and you'll love it. Their hummus and baba ganoush are both beyond delicious every time, and their grilled meats (any of them) have so much flavor and never seem to by dry. The lentil soup is super velvety and well seasoned. The falafel is so herbaceous. Y'all know I can't eat pita but my husband and child are obsessed with it. We are big big fans of Fattoush and it continues to be a good regular dinner option for us!
