| - I pass by this place every day and I always wondered what it was about and so apparently they've reopened after a long time and are back in business.
I took my food to go; but I ordered the chicken shish dinner special which comes with rice, salad, and pita. I also got an order of their baba ganoush. The chicken was really good, moist, well-cooked and certainly not dry. The rice has some nuts in it which I wasn't expecting but was also very good. Both were piping hot when I got them. I think my favorite was the salad, which was super delicious, fresh, and light. And they give you a huge portion of it too. The pita was good but by the time I got home it was already hard and dry, but that's probably my fault for getting it to-go.
Not a huge fan of the baba ganoush, it did not taste bad, but it was my first time having it so I guess it just wasn't what I was expecting, flavor wise. I might just stick to the hummus next time, but the consistency and texture was really good.
Since they just opened a little bit ago, it's rather quiet so I didn't mind that. Everyone was super friendly to me and did nothing but smile. And it seemed like some of the diners were return customers from a long time ago, so it was nice to hear the owners having friendly conversation. It makes the already inviting environment, even warmer. Prices can pretty steep in my opinion; my order came out to around $27 but I'm also a poor college student so... yeah.
