Kish is rated pretty highly on Google, but not on Yelp, which is surprising because the food is absolutely fantastic despite its price. Honestly, might be one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants I have ever had. We were surprised to see that there wasn't many people in the restaurant and were seated immediately.
- Falafel / Hummus - Coming here, I would not have expected to order this dish as I felt like falafels are quite a "normal" dish, but this was absolutely fantastic and may or may not be the best falafel I have ever had. I feel like usually, falafels are quite dry, but not this one. It was a bit moist and the seasoning they put on the outside elevated the dish completely. I really appreciated the yellow dressing they put on the salad too, every so slightly sweet which compliments very well with the bitter vegetables.
- Tschelo Kabab Torsch - I got the mixed chicken and lamb kebab and each piece of meat was so delicious and tender. It also wasn't very dry which I was a bit worried about. I appreciated the rice quite a bit too although I wish the entire thing was saffron rice instead of just the top. The additional yogurt dressing that we ordered helped a lot with the dish.
- Complimentary Dessert + Tea - Not sure what this dessert was in particular, felt a little bit like gelatin and bean paste but it was pretty good and I was surprised that it was complimentary. I liked the tea a lot more though as the sugar cube really elevated its flavor. I appreciate that they gave it to us boiling hot as well.
Overall, very solid meal at Kish and I would definitely back again. They are really elevating Middle Eastern food like no other.
