This is the third time I've eaten here in the last few months and it was outstanding, as usual! While we didn't love where they seated us (even though we had made reservations over a month in advance - but now I know what to ask for in the reservation), the food and service were great. The roasted beet hummus, muttabal and fresh-from- the-oven pitas were probably our favorites, but everything was great. Last time I came here, I ordered the roasted beets salad with grilled salmon (also amazing). We also tried two desserts, the knafeh and osmalieh ice cream, both were excellent...and they went great together! I'm looking forward to my next visit!

Ally and Isabel were very helpful and accommodating. I had called in advance in order to coordinate the menu because our party of 12 was limited on time. Excellent customer experience and the food was excellent. Fresh and savory!

Great service. A bit loud. The nook to the right next to the register should be designated for families with kids.
