The 3 dips came with one pita bread, would have been nice to get at least 2. For our main courses we had the stuffed artichokes, cooked to perfection, they were very tasty and the portion was big. Chicken platter was also very well seasoned and tasty, came with a garlic dipping sauce and I chose rice with lentils. The restaurant was clean and all the servers were incredibly friendly! Can't wait to come back.

Our breakfast consisted of a large set spread of savory and sweet Egyptian eats paired with a coffee ceremony (baba, pastries, pita, you name it). Our table of four gobbled up every bite. This spot feels like you're eating in someone's kitchen - very cozy and homey. This is a great spot if you're looking for a healthy meal, vegan options, family-style eating, etc. The service was somewhat slow but warm - no complaints. Bonus: We also loved the educational decor in the bathrooms.

The person who took my order was very helpful and informative. He was patient with me while I was flip-flopping between what to order. One of the other team members was also helpful with making sure everything was OK with my order. Teamwork is clearly something that is practiced at this location. I ultimately decided on the seafood platter with extra fish. I opted to replace both the fries and the salad with rice. I asked for the white sauce on the side along with hot sauce. I was pleasantly surprised. My food was good and seasoned perfectly. I will be back sooner than later to get a shrimp platter. They were the star of the show! The only recommendation I have this go around, is that the fish be fried just a little bit harder. Unfortunately, it was a little soft/soggy and not crispy. But the taste was on point. Again the shrimp were fried perfectly. As per my last visit, the restaurant was very clean. I will be back!

You can definitely find something here that you'll like. My go-to is The Loaded Philly and WOW. It's a Philly cheesesteak with onions and peppers, plus mozzarella sticks, chicken tenders, fries, and a homemade chipotle sauce all stacked together. It's messy, over-the-top, and absolutely delicious. Don't skip the Blazin Sunset drink either--half strawberry, half mango and super refreshing. Perfect balance to the savory food. If you're hungry and want something fun, flavorful, and different from the usual, this is the spot. I'll definitely be back (with extra napkins).

As soon as you walk in, be prepared for not one case of decadent cakes but two cases. So make sure you leave room for dessert. Our entrees included a very traditional Uyghur Pilaf with Lamb and the Goshnan. The Goshnan is like a flat meat pie stuffed with flavored beef and lamb. Even though the menu says it requires an additional 10 minutes to prepare, this dish arrived before my rice pilaf. The rice in the pilaf was one of the most flavorful dishes I have had in a while. The carrots and cumin spice really added so much taste. Now I'm on the hunt for a recipe so I can try at home. For dessert we had the baklava cheesecake. We love the fact that the baklava is incorporated in the cheesecake and not just a topping on a regular cheesecake. The bottom crust is baklava sprinkled with nuts on top. Where else will you find this? Service was attentive. Parking: Extremely limited street parking in front of the restaurant. We ended up in the Tax Analysts Building garage on Tinner Hill Road (turn right on S. Maple Avenue after you pass the restaurant). Signs were not very clear whether parking was permitted but because there were businesses listed on the sign, we assumed it was okay. When we asked the staff in the restaurant, they were not sure. Our car was not towed so this is a possibility if you can't find street parking.

I'd recommend getting the spicy sauce on the side if you're sensitive to spice (I love it, boyfriend does not). Good portion size, I made two meals out of it.

The food came out very quickly & we watched as he hand made our orders with care. There is limited inside & outside seating and all orders come in to-go containers.

The service is fast but not interactive - no complaints. Overall good place to try! Not sure if I'd make the drive to it again but if it's on uber or if I'm on the area I'd stop in to get a bite.

There were almost 0 customers and I was order #4 at 6 pm.... The staff were just waiting for customers. There's nothing wrong with that but there's a reason why it's empty. No where is it advertised that the burger is more of like a burger seasoned with kabob spices burger. So if you want a standard burger this isn't the place for you. The burger was fine if you're okay with spices. I liked it but I felt a little tricked. The fried cheese was also good but it was Super spicy. I didn't notice but my friend couldn't eat it. Also there was 0 hVAC so I was freezing and did not enjoy the sit down experience. I love my friends but it was so cold I just wanted to leave. I would literally give it more stars if they called it "specially seasoned burgers" and fixed the heat.

I first tried the assorted kebabs. Unfortunately, the chicken had dried out and the kofta felt too crumbly. The chicken rice dish had quite aromatic rice but underseasoned chicken; seasoned rice alone can't substitute bland chicken drumsticks. The lamb rice dish had both aromatic rice and juicy, well seasoned lamb. I ended up combining the lamb pieces with the chicken rice. Out of curiosity, I tried a piece of their fried chicken. It proved juicy and not too oily. It would do well as a standalone appetizer in most restaurants. I also tried something that looked like lasagna, but without tomato. It tasted, to my uncultured palate, like a lasagna with some sort of cream or bechamel-like sauce. I quite enjoyed it. For dessert, my friend convinced me to try what I had initially passed over as oatmeal or tapioca pudding. The Omi Ali proved quite delectable, like a cross between bread pudding and oatmeal but with more nuanced spices and sweetness. I added it to my short list of desserts I enjoy, since I don't have much of a sweet tooth. Overall, I appreciated the breath and variety. Some hits and misses are to be expected at a homely, ethnic neighborhood style buffet.

This establishment seems to be Egyptian owned, as the walls claim that Egyptians created bread, cupcakes and falafel. The service was fine, though the tables could have been cleaner. I appreciate that they allow you to substitute some of the rice portion for lettuce/spring mix although the spring mix was wet. They also offered both spicy and regular options for rice and chicken. I got spicy rice with spicy chicken, and for my toppings I got Mediterranean salad, hummus, and tzaziki. I didn't realize you could also get white sauce, green sauce, etc, so I probably wouldn't get tzaziki and get olives or something else next time. The chicken and rice combo was a bit overly spicy for me and upset my stomach slightly. I'd probably get regular for both the next time. I also got tiramisu which they recommended over all the other "cupcakes" which they claim (via the wall) is Egyptian. The tiramisu was surprisingly good. There was soft music that seems Arabic-speaking. They have fountain drinks as well as bottled beverages. They also include a service charge - it was like $0.42 for me. I don't regret stopping by, but I wish my stomach was more settled. I just came from a restorative yoga class and I was thoroughly at peace.
