Nice and plenty. KOSHER! Meat on skewers a bit tough here and there. Cauliflower was overcooked way before it was served - was taken off the bill! SERVICE WAS AWESOME! All were helpful, pleasant, efficient. Made you feel good.

A friend and I had a lovely lunch at this place new to us. It was so good and friendly, we started composing our YELP review before we finished eating! I can't wait to tell you about the great menu, quality of food, friendliness of the servers, and unique experience we enjoyed. All meals are freshly prepared, ample in size, and perfectly spiced. The Israeli menu is delicious and a welcome addition to our list of restaurant favorites. Located in a strip mall in Rockville, the owners have created a well decorated and comfortable oasis that you will feel fortunate to discover. Each dish is well conceived and beautifully presented. Don't miss a chance to visit a yummy kosher restaurant with easy parking and the best food west of Tel Aviv!

Update October 2023: We were there twice recently. The service is much improved. The food was back up to their original standards. We had a good meal and a good experience both times.Formerly Our favorite restaurant.June, 2023: Our dinner tonight was such a disappointment it rated another review. The service was worse than what you would get at McDonald’s. As soon as we got to the table, she offered to take our order. Then she never came back. We had to keep asking for our server and asking for food. We had to find someone else to get us drinks. Three out of four people got dinner. After waiting we tried to flag down our server three times. We finally got someone else who works there to get her for us. Everyone else had their food for half an hour and she never asked if we needed anything or noticed that she didn’t bring out the fourth meal. We had to beg to get the last meal. It then took an extra 20 minutes. Our server finally brought it blurting out, “it’s not my fault.” no explanation, no apology. When we asked why she didn’t check on it she simply said it wasn’t her job. We couldn’t get her to bring us containers for the leftover meal. We couldn’t get her to bring us a bill. When someone else finally brought us the bill we declined to tip because the service was so poor. When we got the credit card receipt, a 20% tip had been added. We asked them to take it off and they would not.Dietary restrictions: Strictly kosher with lots of gluten-free options.Wheelchair accessibility: Not easy to get around with a walker or wheelchair if they are busy.

The absolute worst experience dining out ever.Took 30 minutes to get seated. silverware on table was dirty.The abundant salads that they advertise, they ran out of.The hummus tasted off, we sent it back. Instead of removing the charge from bill, they pro-rated it since we ate some of it. Ridiculous thinking on their part.Burger was not juicy, it was greasy.The bathroom was beyond filthy. I waited until I went outside!After arguing with manager, hummus charge was removed from the bill, but!!!, she added a 20% gratuity fee.On the menu, it is clearly stated a 20% gratuity charge will be added to parties of 8 people and up. We were a table of 4 adults and 1 child.Sneaky and highly insulting.Many of the staff were wearing shirts from Motis marketThat's really tacky.The wait staff ignored our table.Again, this was my absolute worst experience eating out.Not worth going to.Owners should be arrested for impersonating restaurantuers.Don't waste your time!!Better choice would have been to go to bed hungry.Awful!
