First a review of the place. It's pretty medium-sized and has some awkward seating with two big tables that can hold 6-8 and then a bunch of 4 person tables. Has a Mediterranean feel with those big tent things that are kinda comical since it's indoors. You can also see their custom kabab grills on the other side of the counter which was cool to look at.
Our service was pretty bad, but we also came during lunch time so it also seemed a little understaffed. Took about ~10 minutes to finally put our order in, but they tried to keep us entertained with a complementary eggplant appetizer with baked pita chips. That was actually pretty good.
Onto the food.
The menu has the usual variety of mediterranean food, including the meat combos, humus, falafel with some additional indian biryanis mixed in there. My friend tried the quail dish which was the first time we tasted quail and it had a TON of flavor. They did a good job of marinating it in some lemon juice and mediterranean spices...combined with the smokie bbq flavor...oh it was good. Except it was a little harder to eat than chicken because of the size and the bones.
I had the meat combo which I enjoyed but the steak meat is definitely better than the chicken (a little dried out). The humus that came with the combo was also especially good, one of the better ones i've tried. Both come with a good serving of friend rice that is more than enough.
Next time i'll probably try the Meat Arayes along with the arayes with cheese and falafel sandwich. Overall decent food, not bad for champaign, and worth another visit. Not awesome, but definitely worth trying out.
