My wife an I are from the middle-east, so we have tasted wonderful middle-eastern food many times (basically grew up with it). Chambana locals might consider this restaurant pretty good, but based on our standards it is mediocre at best. A few reasons why as examples? The pita bread isn't homemade, and it was thin and dry. The humus was ok, nothing special.. Vine leaves weren't wrapped well and didn't seem very fresh.. Shawarma was overcooked, though the seasoning was pretty good.. And the cookies for dessert were pretty bad (though the Turkish coffee was good). It's the only choice for middle-eastern food in the area, so worth going once in a while.. But don't get excited.
