The food is suuuuuuper fresh and delicious. Lots of vegetarian and vegan options which is a must for me. We probably ate at some sort of “off” time because there was nobody there. The ambiance is a bit… I don’t know what to say… empty and aging, like nobody cares about it. But the food is fresh like from your aunt’s kitchen and very delicious. Would not recommend for dinner but definitely a good spot to grab lunch sandwiches and appetizers.
This is my go to lunch spot in the design district. The owner is super nice. He even recognized me from previous orders and asked my name. We had a nice conversation. I normally get the chicken wrap, which is delicious. I'm going to try more items off their menu.

Excellent salad and kabobs of chicken and lamb. The rice was different from what I was used to at first, but it eventually won me over and I really like it. The hummus is similar. Their kunafah dessert was also extremely tasty. The waiter's dismissive and hurried demeanor initially turned me off, but by the end he appeared to have warmed up. I'm hoping he just had a terrible day because I'm excited to try this restaurant once more.
