Great middle eastern food in a nice atmosphere. Warm and friendly staff. Tried the kebab sandwich with lentil soup. Loved both. The tahina and date dessert was also delicious. Surprisingly good bar for middle eastern place.

I'd go back if I were local.

This resto is a personal favorite. The only thing I've not liked is their falafel, which is a little dry and grainy for my taste. Their dolmas are outstanding, seafood and meats wonderfully seasoned and grilled, and their tabbouleh is easily the best I've had - heavy on the parsley and light on the garlic. Proprietors are as hospitable as they come.
