We got the grape leaves, baba ghanoush, and meat combo plate. The grape leaves were (3/5) because i liked how vinegary they were but the rice was a tad overcooked and I found a hair rolled in one of mine....... Baba (4.5/5) because it had a great flavor! Meat combo (3.8/5) because the chicken was a bit hard and dry but the lamb kebab was good and so were all the sides it comes with. The chicken just didn't quite have the charcoal flavor that i love. Overall, I'd consider coming back because i love supporting small, local, businesses. But our total was quite pricey to find a hair in the food and for hard chicken.

The flavor on everything is elevated and fresh!! We had hummus w/pita, falafel, and fries to start. Amazing falafel! Perfectly crispy outside and pillowy inside. For entrees, I had the lamb gyro which was one of the best I've had. The lamb is perfection and they wrap it in a roti instead of pita which was absolutely the move! The house-made pickled veggies served with it were amazing as well and really balanced the nice waiting of the lamb gyro. My wife got the Caesar salad with chicken Shawarma. That was Incredible as well! Try a side of the Harrissa in the zhug sauces to add a little fresh heat! The restaurant has great ambience with some Moroccan type vibes and a great patio. There is a 20% service charge automatically added to every check which is what it is. But for this level of flavor, it's worth it plus tip!

This place started as a 5 star experience and slowly worked its way down to 3…read more The hummus, fresh pita, shishito peppers, cocktails, and front of house service were all excellent. The bartenders and waitstaff were attentive, friendly, and professional. If I were rating only those things, this would be an easy 5 stars. Then the yellow rice arrived cold and crusty. We sent it back. It came back slightly improved but still not properly hot. After a few bites, we found a piece of plastic in it. The half chicken was a mixed bag. The crispy skin was delicious and well seasoned, but the chicken itself was served only lukewarm. Some pieces were moist and enjoyable, while others, especially toward the end, were noticeably dry. It wasn't bad, but had I known it would be served that way, I probably would have ordered something else. The kitchen issues alone would have dropped this to 4 stars. What pushed it down to 3 stars was the billing. A 20% service charge had already been added, yet the payment process still encouraged an additional tip. If you're not paying close attention, it's very easy to leave 40% on an already expensive meal. Whether intentional or not, it feels confusing and misleading. Even if it's disclosed somewhere on the menu, that doesn't make it customer friendly. Customers should not have to do math or hunt through fine print like a budget airlines to figure out what their meal actually costs. Build your labor costs into the menu price and be transparent. Surprise fees create frustration and leave customers feeling misled, regardless of how many disclaimers are printed. To their credit, they removed a couple of drinks from the bill, and I want to be clear that the staff handled the situation professionally. The problem was not the servers. The problem was a kitchen that missed the mark and a shady billing practice that leaves customers with a bad taste in their mouth at the end of the meal. Great hummus. Great pita. Great cocktails. Great service. Cold rice. Plastic in the food. A chicken dish that didn't quite live up to the hype. Confusing service fees. That's how a restaurant that could have been 5 stars ends up with 3.

It's Persian food, so not exactly the same as the menu at your standard Middle Eastern places, but don't be afraid to try something new. They do their takes on kabobs, stews and marinated meats, and they are very good at all of them. They want you to have a different experience than the typical hummus and shawarma places so let them take you to a new part of the world. There is a liquor license, which might be a little surprising, but don't forget to try their black tea as well.
