I really wanted to love this place, I wanted it to be a grubby, undiscovered gem in NE Charlotte. You know how some seedy ethnic takeout places have first-rate, mind blowing food? I think this just may not be one of those places. Or maybe it was just what I ordered. Kofta Tagine. The daily special. Should have been awesome, was just mediocre due to everything (rice and meat) being kind of dried out. However, their cafe au lait was really good, and the Arabic music videos on the teevee were very entertaining. I'll probably give it one more try sometime just to see if they make a decent bastilla.
