“Tonight was a very special night. And honestly, it doesn’t matter if it’s a special night or not. The owner of the restaurant always make sure that we’re satisfied with the quality of service and food. I was in the restaurant business before moving onto my career. For almost 15 years. It helped me get through school and pay for a lot. So I have understanding of European cuisine fusion and other types of Cuisines that typically people find appealing. This restaurant is phenomenal. The food is always on point. I’ve been dining here takeout and dine in for two years plus. If there’s ever a discrepancy with my order? The owner always makes things right. Phenomenal service, phenomenal food, and until the day I die, this restaurant will have my business. If you’re on vacation or you’re here playing golf? Hell, if you’re a person that just moved here and looking for a great spot to call home? I highly recommend this restaurant. If I was only allowed to give them five out of five stars? They would have a solid five stars and I’ll be looking for a way to create another star. They are that good. Thank you so much for quality food and excellent service. My family truly appreciates it on this very special occasion that you guys yet again did not let us down. Love Coffey”

“As I had never ordered from here, and being new to the area, I thought their menu sounded pretty good, so I took a leap of faith! I'm really glad I did, and as I did not try out the tortillas, I had the birria tacos and birria ramen, with a chicken flaunta plate (with rice and beans) and it did not disappoint. Each came with three to an order, and the ramen even came with its own birria taco on the side; the flaunts arrived crispy and hot. The one thing I haven't been able to get out of my mind was their "Salsa Falsa". It's a green, jalapeno-based salsa, that is smooth, creamy and has the perfect hint of spice! I could put that on everything...and I didvuntil it ran out! You can order the salsas in larger portions as well, which a should've done in the first place. Give them a try, I ordered from Door Dash, so I'm not sure about the service and storefront, but verything was great!”
“I recently had lunch in Ishtar Restaurant after. The food was delicious and responding to my needs, personally served by the owner, our friend Bashar and his staff.
