Have only done take out. We get the family meal. It's delicious & a great price for the amount of food you get. The photos of inside look lovely, next time I'd like to dine in.

Worst Persian Mediterranean food I have ever been served. From tge sale that was sitting old lettuce to everything that’s on it was old and soggy. Then I thought it was just the salad. I then ordered the top of the line plate the Halibut. Tge Halibut was not a Halibut it was some other fish that was over cooked dry and awful tasting.I do not recommend this place

The best mediterranean/middle eastern food. If that's not your style, they have amazing alternatives. Highly recommend giving them a try! Whether you dine in, get delivery or takeout. You will not be disappointed.

The food was delicious, from the appetizers to our entrees and dessert. The baklava was the best I've ever had as was the baba ghanoush. It's a big pricey but worth every penny! Asia was our server and she was very knowledgeable, gave great suggestions and made the experience overall wonderful! We'll be back!

If I could zero I would. This place is expensive, has absolutely no flavor. Rice is disgusting. They did absolutely nothing to it. They added a tip for takeout momma take this out to the garbage. I paid $24 for crap. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. UPDATE. THE -OWNER HAS BULLY TACTICS. I AM DISAPPOINTED BY THE LACK OF FLAVOR, dry chicken and over 30 minute wait. I always post fair and honest reviews. I pay money and expect good food. To be forced to tip, but not have the expectation of flavor is a rip off. I pray you do better because this is unacceptable. AND I HAVE HAD VERY GOOD MEDITERRANEAN FOOD THAT HAD A LOT OF FLAVOR

This is one of the few Mediterranean restaurants I really enjoy, flavor-wise. It's delicious and always consistent. After a year of ordering for pick-up only, My husband and I decided to dine-in and we really loved the service. Andrew waited on us and he was an exceptional waiter. The food was remarkable. Highly recommend this place!!

I came on Father's Day with my family as a party of 5. 4 of our meals arrived and the staff said we had to wait for the last one (a simple double ground beef koubedeh) because of a machine error. I had to wait an additional 15-20 minutes as my family finished. I asked our server Asia to get me the manager and she told me it would be complimentary since it was late and that she did not need to call over senior staff. When our bill was served, another man (tall, buzz cut) came and denied what she said and instead gave us one of our two desserts off. Overall, come here if you with the potential that the food might take a while and not be the best. It's 6pm on Father's Day and the building only has 4 other tables (about 15-20 empty ones). We're Afghan so we know kabob. I'm very disappointed.

Food is very delicious. The staff and manager are very friendly. Tables are more than 6 feet apart and outdoor dining is lovely. Its the best Kabobery in town.

The food was very tasty. Service was good. Prices relatively expensive, but we were okay with that. So far this is a 4-star review. Where they lost 2 stars, making this a 2-star review, is the $2 charge added to the bill for "COVID Tax". It's labeled on the receipt as a general surcharge and there was no mention of it in the store or on the menu (at least that I noticed). We ordered one kabob combination plate and a solvaki plate. The bill came out to $50 for lunch. I had to ask our waiter why this charge was added. Once again if not for the, in my opinion, deceptive surcharge this would have been a 4-star review. I understand that COVID might demand higher costs, rising minimum wage, etc. But tacking in charges without telling me before I order is deceptive. Other reviewers have also voiced issues with their charging system and it speaks volumes. Enjoy the $2 surcharge because you've lost my future business (worth much more than $2).

Have eaten in here a couple of times and have enjoyed it. Got a coupon in the mail for a family meal for 4 for 39.99. When we ordered the server said she needed to check with the manager because it was only good for to go orders. She came back and said she could not use it to eat in. She was very nice and apologetic. We got it to go so we could use the coupon but I think this is ridiculous. There is nowhere on this coupon that says to go only. I really feel that to keep good relations with customers, the manager would have honored this. It left a bad taste for me which is unfortunate because I like the food. My family will not be going back because we felt like our business was not important to the management.

Dropped by to eat dinner on a not crowded Thursday night. We decided instead to switch our order from eating at the restaurant to take out. Our server was nice and brought our salads out. But when my boyfriend wanted to substitute an item they wouldn't work with him and the server went to the kitchen to ask 2 times if they could switch it out. After being frustrated and very hungry my boyfriend decided to order the shrimp on the side. The salad dressing was not what I expected having eaten at other Mediterranean spots. The nice server did bring me a new salad with different dressing to go. Heads up they apparently never warn anyone or write on the menu about an extra tip on their orders. They used square cash on a portable card reader and it only says how much but it does not state the order as an itemized list. So you wont be able to see a tip until after you're charged. I don't mind extra gratuity when I'm told ahead of time so I can decide whether I am okay with that or want to go somewhere else. Which the whole time we were deciding whether to just leave or not. Probably why the place is pretty empty (considering the food is already expensive) to add an additional almost $20 on an order can be bothersome.

My family enjoyed their meal very much. The rice was great! I wanted a kabob meal but opted for the pesto pasta to try. It was good, a Mediterranean take on my usual Italian pesto sauce. I wish the 4 person deal was for dine in and not only take-out.

I will give 2 stars for the decent pricing....however when it comes to the food. I have to give it a 1 star at best. Very pedestrian flavors and even worse preparation. I ordered the Barrimundi and it was so overcooked, for the first time in my life I needed a knife to cut my fish. The Saffron rice was flavorless and the heaping mound of onions and peppers with the charcoled lemon insulted the plate. I am sorry and hate to leave a bad review but this was a Heartbreaker after the overall ambiance of the location and the descriptions and pics of the food. Side note they play off the relationship of the owner with Anthony Bourdain and strongly feel if he saw this plate and tasted it he would ask to not be associated. RIP kind sir.

As I'm typing this, I'm currently waiting on the family bundle for $39.99 which looks completely appetizing and worth the price but something that struck me the wrong way is how they charged an additional $6 tip for.....absolutely nothing. Yes, you heard that. I did not tell them to add the $6 tip. They put it themselves. I'm under the impression that tipping should not be expected but earned through going above and beyond what's asked. Doing your job by taking my order and making it doesn't qualify you for a tip. On top of all of that, the family bundle is TO-GO. So you don't even get the decency to eat inside. If this company did a better job and paying their employees, there wouldn't be need for tips. Especially for tips not given by the person who's card you take away and do god knows what while it's out of sight.
