"A family-run, old-school Middle Eastern home-style restaurant that began in the market shortly after statehood and has returned to the market’s heart over time; it has no website and retains a traditional, unfussy appeal. Beloved by a broad cross-section—from hipsters and foodies to longtime market regulars—its reliably excellent comfort food draws crowds, so expect a wait; the stuffed eggplant comes especially recommended." - Diana Spechler
