| - The Vegetarian Combo Platter, from the appetizer menu, included the best FALAFAL I've ever had. It was lovely and moist inside, crispy outside. I have always sort of liked Falafal, but I didn't even know it could be that good. And I would be really torn to have to chose a favorite between the eggplant thing (ZAALUK) and the tomato and roasted red pepper thing (SHASHUKA). They were divine! 4th on the Platter was the Hummus which was a little different somehow, but also excellent.
My husband also ordered the Poutine (if you love gravy on french fries, this is the best you'll find).
I ordered the Beef Tajine (with Prunes) and it was lovely but not the best choice for me because I'm sensitive to onion and although onion isn't listed on the menu it's a MAJOR player in this dish.
My husband ordered the Lamb Chops which were absolutely perfect! These little meat gems are easy to dry out, but they were spot-on.
Then we splurged for dessert and sadly they didn't have any gelato that night, but we ordered the Marinasmir - which was a combination I would never have imagined, but it worked pretty well.
Our waiter was right there with information when we needed it, and described things well. Unfortunately, I didn't ask him about my dish before I experienced the onions, but that's my bad.
In short, service was good, the food was delightful. I would return just for the Vegetarian Combo Platter ANY day of the week, but don't stop there!
