This plate seems to impress me more and more every time I order it. The meat is chargrilled, juicy, and well seasoned. Plenty of saffron rice to go with it. Plenty of pickles and tomatoes and onions with it. And the fresh baked bread seals the deal. It's excellent.

You get A LOT of food for your money; great value! Having traveled around North Africa and the Middle East, this food brought me back there. Baklava was delicious! The Ali Baba Bread will shock you; family member nicknamed it "Passover Bread." Delicious! The kebabs and tikka were the best. Thank you.

We got the Feast For Three People and it was legitimately enough food for 6-10 people to eat their fill! It was all delicious! compliments to the restaurant. It took a little bit of time for the food to come out, but that's alright since it was all so good and was in a large quantity. Their bread is big enough for an entire family and the hummus is amazing.

We love the Shawarma (Beef) and Whole Roasted Chicken . Plenty of food for a family of 5 with a really good price! The bread is heavenly.

Lamb and rice were really good. We would definitely buy that again. Do NOT get the Quail. It was completely inedible. What little meat was there was jerky in texture and full of tiny bones, which are hard to navigate when you can't distinguish between meat and bone because the meat is so hard. I paid a lot of money for an inedible entree. Bread was tough. Ali Baba Juice tastes EXACTLY like Fruit Punch Kool-Aid. I don't have anything against Kool- Aid, but not for $3, you know? The Ali Baba Salad was ok - nothing special, and probably wouldn't order again. Baklava was OK. Clearly, I ordered the wrong entree but I'm willing to bet that other, more popular, entrees are a better representation of this restaurant's rating... Just don't get the quail.
