- JJaneRaleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill •8 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoYummy choices with lots of spice and taste. The staff was friendly and mostly informative with knowing this was several diners first time there. The chicken kabobs were tender and grilled perfectly and the rice with the almonds provided the right amount of texture and taste. We split the tasting appetizer and the kabob dinner and it was the right amount for our smaller appetites. I would highly recommend.More infoSittiPrice: Moderate• Mediterranean• Raleigh•4.6
