"I think this is some of the best food in the East Bay and am so happy they are also on DoorDash for days when getting out of the house is tough. I love any of pide sandwiches, the bread is so fresh and soft and the fillings are generous, well cooked, and absolutely delicious. "

The spices balanced perfectly with the dumplings and the beans. Utter perfection on a cold day.

The spinach feta turnover was good, but had a little less filling than I would've liked (but my partner loved it, so definitely just personal preference), and the cheese borek was too greasy. Overall, the espresso drinks were great, and I'll definitely order again and maybe try different pastries."

Bagels are teeny tiny and tastes like from the supermarket. They don't use real cheese on the breakfast sandwich - it's like Kraft slices. It's cheap, so you get what you pay for!"

"I wish i took a photo. Quite possibly the best burrito I've ever had. Was short and thick. Probably weighed 2lbs. They gave me a side of fresh tortilla chips - I didn't even ask for that but appreciated it. The spicy sauces they provided worked phenomenally with the burrito. I will be ordering from here again."
"I got Chips and Guac with an extra Side of Guac (4oz) just to be safe, & glad I did because the guac was excellent and the chips were edible.
I also got a Golden Burrito "Afghan style" with a fried tortilla just to see what that would be like. It was kind of like a schmancy restaurant taco salad "tortilla bowl" but with I guess fewer restricted zones. Actually tons of veggies compared to a wrapped burrito. 9/10 will almost definitely order again.
The jamaica was legit, not just red kool-aid.
Beans were under-seasoned and I was disappointed plantains weren't on the menu but hey it's not my kitchen! Respect to the chef."

"Both the Salmon Plate and Samosa (6 pcs) were very flavorful and had great portion sizes for the price. I would've loved sahawiq/chutney on the side of the Samosa (6 pcs) but thats just me"
"I always enjoyed everything l've ordered from here. I love the beef shawarma, the falafel and the kofta.
Tonight I tried the burger and fries and they were delicious. The burger was big, juicy and well seasoned. The portions of fries was huge- I couldn't finish even half, even though they tasted great. Don't sleep on thier fresh pita either- so good!"

"Chicken Shawerma Snack simple and delicious! The pickles give the wrap a nice crunch and the chicken is nicely seasoned. The garlic sauce is super garlicky, which I love! I added a side of Hot Sauce and it's great. Plenty of spice, nice and bright, not at all smokey."
"The Mediterranean Plates is very tasty: the falafel is nice and crispy, and the baba ghanoush is just the right amount of smoky. I really like that it comes with a salad. The first time I got it, I felt like it was a good bargain. The second time, there was less of the baba ghanoush and the hummus (and no olives in the salad), and this time there wasn't even half of the serving cup of baba ghanoush! The hummus was a lot less, too. They also only give three-quarters of a pita, and there's no way to order more. So, overall, good food, but inconsistent servings."
