    Located inside a home kitchen in Watts you will find the best Palestinian food in Los Angeles. We…read morehave been here three times now and every time we start eating our food we immediately laugh and say to each other "this is so good." This last time in, we ordered the Rice bowl with falafel, the pita wrap with halal chicken, Zataar fries, mint lemonade and the karak chai. I don't know how to explain the taste of everything other than to say think of anything that you have tasted that was similar and just multiply that by 10 as far as freshness, flavor pop, texture, and cooking execution. The falafel was crisp on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside, not oily and not dry. The sauces were all so very well balanced. The Zataar on the fries was so fragrant, salty and flavorful and the fries were fresh out of the fryer, warm and crispy. The halal chicken had this smokey almost birria flavor. Very earthy and natural. Like nothing I have ever tasted. The drinks and dessert are all amazing. My mint lemonade had fresh mint and hint of floral orange blossom. So refreshing. The karak chai had cardamom, saffron, ginger and cloves. It was like going on a flavor rollercoaster in a good way. The husband and wife team could not be nicer to you. All smiles all the time. They came out multiple times to check on us and talk to us. We definitely felt welcomed like family. Such a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Just can't say enough about this place and how they run their business.

    Life changing is all I have to say about this meal. Went to the Eid feast where Chef Summer…read morecollabed with Chef Heidi and prepared the most amazing Palestinian and Sudanese feast. Let me tell it to you this way: I abhor feta cheese; I've never had lamb that I liked that wasn't gamey; and I loathe mint in my food. And the dishes with those ingredients were some of my FAVORITES. There is so much love that goes into these meals and they are so well balanced and so flavorful. And do not even get me started on the homemade pita bread - life changing. I've also never felt so welcomed and comfortable eating somewhere that wasn't my own home.

    We stopped by here on a weekday because it was one of the dog-friendly restaurants near Rosie's Dog…read moreBeach. They have multiple outside seating areas where you can sit with your doggo. Ambiance (5/5): Although we didn't sit inside, it was super cute, with classy boho vibes. The restroom was clean and well-decorated (although, not gonna lie, I don't know how I felt about the big mirror facing the toilet). The outside patio area was airy, and although right by the street, I didn't find it unpleasant. Service (3/5): It was just so-so. They sat us down quickly, gave us our menus and checked on us maybe twice. It wasn't super busy, but we had to wait to ask for things like extra plates and water for our dog. Food Overall (5/5): Food was delicious. We got the beef shawarma lunch special and got fries for the side (extra charge) and also the chicken shawarma lunch special with the hummus side. Beef Shawarma (4/5): It had a nice toasty flavor, perhaps from the spices, and the pickled veggies really complemented it. My only complaint was that I wish it had a bit more of the white sauce (maybe adding more hummus would have helped). It was also strangely a bit watery, maybe from the veggies. Overall, it was still a yummy wrap. Chicken Shawarma (5/5): The chicken shawarma tasted more balanced to me overall. I don't recall the meat being dry, although I did also slather it with a bit of hummus. I thoroughly enjoyed this wrap. Fries side (5/5): Their fries are made in house and it tastes so fresh. It was crispy on the outside yet still gooey and moist on the inside. I'm not sure if they make their own ketchup too, as it looked clumpier and tasted really fresh too. The kids gobbled this up. Hummus and pita (5/5): It came with a generous amount of both hummus and pita. The hummus was well flavored and blended, and it really complemented everything on the table. The pocket pita bread was not what I had in mind (I'm used to thicker ones), but the kids really loved it overall. Ice cream (4.5/5): We ordered two scoops from the dessert menu. They were both really thick, creamy and almost chewy like liquidized mochi. It was a very interesting texture but nonetheless a nice tasty treat on a hot day. I much preferred the vanilla bean, as the pistachio tasted and looked rather artificial (and I'm a pistachio ice cream lover). This place had so many to-go orders during the afternoon we were there. I can see why. Food is super fresh and tasty. I think we will be back the next time we are visiting.

    The Lebanese food was perfect. The Shawarma had the perfect amount of seasoning, the hummus was…read moredelicious, and the salad was amazing! The shawerma had great quality and wasn't over seasoned. The waitress was so sweet and charged my phone because it was dying! The ambience is really cute and quiet!
