I come back often for their chicken skewer plate. Lots of food and its so good! I usually get the garlic paste and Tzatziki dip as my sides. I keep ordering the same thing because its too good. If there is no parking on the street you can park around back and use the backdoor to enter.
The attitudes of the people serving is not acceptable. They have a hard time answering questions. Daisy was very rude.

Ordered the lamb wrap, my god the worst I’ve ever tasted. The pita, is all broken, it came with about two pieces of lamb… never going back.

The food was pretty good, though new wary of the olives if you get them. They are not pitted so if you decide to eat a mouthful like I did be warned you will bite down on seeds. You have been warned. The lamb was good thoughVegetarian options: There are grilled veggies for those who don't want meat.Kid-friendliness: Hands on food for kids to pick at.Parking: Make sure you read the signs properly and carefully, depending on the time and day the parking can vary.Wheelchair accessibility: Not many, you may need help with the door.Dietary restrictions: If you feel like going halal you can totally do that here. You may also pick out vegetarian options as well.

Good food, hookah was ok.

It's all great! My complaint.. aside from the price, would have to be that I ordered the beef filet kebab, and they cooked it WellDone. It was very tough for a filet cut and had I known that was their default, I would have requested medium rare.
Not too shabby, meaning it's good, but not great. The food is decent--from kebabs to wraps to hummus and babaganouj--it's what you'd expect from a middle eastern restaurant. The place is also pretty clean and there's plenty of seating. There is also plenty of parking on the street or in the Rite Aid lot across the street.For what it is, it's slightly on the pricey side. Oh, and please ditch the PAPER STRAWS. No one is saving the environment with those things and all it does is get soggy in your drink after about 5 minutes.

I thought I would try this place again. But nope never will go back. Today ordered a lentil soup. That was bad but i wasn't great. Ordered 2 chicken and 1 beef pita wraps meat was flavorless and by the time I got home which is not far everything was soggy. Also ordered hummus which had no flavor whatsoever! Everything was gross! Will never give it a chance again!

Previously I gave 5 stars but lately have been disappointed because the flavor of the rice has changed for some unknown reason. Also I used to order tabouleh as a side but now it's $9 extra!

Are these employees are idiots? Where's the spoons or fork? How do we expect to eat? They tied the bag and nothing inside.
