TL/DR: Food was good, but on the pricey side. Service was terrible.
We had a party of 4 at 6:45 pm on a Saturday. We didn’t have reservations. I guess the move is to make reservations. There are only 9 tables in the whole restaurant and there were a few open, but apparently all were reserved. So we sat outside, which we wouldn’t recommend because the tables outside are not meant for eating on. We were not a priority and were forgotten about. It took forever to get a menu and to get our food. We ordered the Roasted Cauliflower as an appetizer, but it still hadn’t come even after we got our food, so we canceled it. My meal came out a solid 15-20 minutes before everyone else’s meal. The whole ordeal took 2 hours. I could go on about the terrible service, but I understand they’re short-staffed (they had a sign posted that they were hiring for 4 positions), so I’ll give them a break for that. The owner was apologetic and gave us free baklava, which was nice. They really have to do better though.
Here’s what we got:
- Hummus Falafel ($14): Falafel was good, but only came with 3 falafel balls. Definitely needed more, especially for the price.
- Shawarma Platter ($20): It came with a good amount of food, but $20 feels like a lot for this. The meat was so good, perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. We tried it with fries and rice, and the fries were the better of the two.
- Lamb Burger ($16): I didn’t try it, but was told it was tasty.
The food was really good. But we won’t be back to dine in for a long time while they get their act together. We would try takeout though.
