Highly recommend this place.🎯🎯🎯
Have dined at this local cafe several times. Love their Yemen latte with oat milk, Fasuliya (spiced bean and tomato stew), zatar labneh flat bread. The spreads are also very good.Mandy K. 3/26/2023
Whoa! Just had their chicken kabob meal..Motoki Y. 10/06/2019
Real tender chicken. Tasty rice and salad. This place won’t disappoint. Happy I work nearby.
Can’t wait to order again!

I had the “Eggs Benzatar” from the brunch menu; two poached eggs with smoked salmon, on top of fresh pita bread, served with potato hash and a salad. The food was very good, you could tell the ingredients were fresh and everything was made in house. If you sit by the window, you also get a good view of outside. read lessWet S. 8/08/2022

The atmosphere is comfy and warm, although the door to enter is a bit hard to operate. I particularly liked the Bulgarian Waffle, it took the cake for the best waffle I've ever had. Their real maple syrup only added to the powdered sugar wonder that was that waffle. I'd recommend this place to anyone who wants something delicious to eat. read lessMichael B. 11/03/2019
Amazing food! I order the falafel sandwich (with feta) at least once a week.Lamar R. 2/05/2021
- BEST BROWNIE IVE EVER HAD. All of their dips are amazing too. And their flats bread. They are so consistent with the quality as well.Michaela M. 1/11/2021
Liked the ambience. Friendly service. Food was very good. Liked the lamb segar. They have sitting arrangements on the back. Overall it was a good experience 👌Faria A. 11/07/2020

You walk in, seat yourself and go up to the register to order your food. The cashier was very friendly and helpful, and when I completely spilled my tea he served me a new one.
The atmosphere and mood are both laid back and the food couldn't have been fresher. Prices are fair, my pizza costing $11 and my fiancé's dish costing $12. This will become a regular spot for us! read less

The Zatar fries was freshly made and it was so crispy and absolutely delicious (you have to wait for the best). The chicken kebab was moist and flavorful. The salmon kebab and white rice was cooked just right. Lamb chop was moist and delicious. My friend can't stop talking about it as she takes every bite. Falafel was crispy and pairs nicely with sauce. Strawberry lemonade is my go to. Prices was reasonable. Service was good. I usually call ahead to check if they have tables available before going. read lessKate w. 9/06/2021
Just WOW. Staff is warm and attentive. Food is absolutely amazing. I'm picky about my coffee and their regular medium roast was delicious. The zatar fries are the best I've ever had!Carolina G. 5/22/2021
Food is always amazing, one of our neighborhood go-to's. Service is a bit less consistent. I like it better as a lunch take-out spot than a sit-down place.Robin T. 6/01/2022
- N Z. 9/23/2019 I liked this place a lot. Excellent value for money for a place to grab a quick bite to eat. Definitely will be going back sometime in the near future for lunch or brunch.
Diana D. 2/22/2020 Perfect fries. Eclectic menu. Laid back atmosphere. No alcohol. Can get crowded during weekend brunch.
The food was amazing. The pita bread was steaming when we got it. Not only was the meat nicely seasoned and tender, but the portions were quite big. I enjoyed every bite. Highly recommend!Tetiana A. 4/01/2022
