| - Went there for my first time today for lunch with a few friends who have been raving about this place.
Environment was very nice and clean. Staff were also very friendly and helpful. It was really busy and our waitress kept going around tables and back and forth from the kitchen but she was still very on top of our orders and requests (for extra pickles, water, hot sauce, and bread several times) and made a small friendly conversation with us.
We all got the hummus plates, one minced lamb, one chicken shawarma, and one roasted mushrooms. Out of the three of them I liked the lamb the most which had pine nuts on them that added a great touch to the texture. Tried a bit of my friend's mushrooms plate and although it tasted fresh, it wasn't something as good as the lamb for the same price. All three hummus dishes were $10.99 which was very reasonable considering the portion and quality of the food.
On a side note, their hot sauce and pickles were sooo good! The hot sauce is home made and very different than regular hot sauce at most restaurants (which are mostly just Sriracha). Also, all their dishes were nicely decorated, even the ones I see others have at their tables which makes it more appetizing.
Just one tiny thing to end off. We were in a group of 4, all ordered hummus plates but we only got 2 pieces of bread (naan bread?) to start off. This was obviously not enough so we had to reorder (which was unlimited) several times because each time they only give you 2 pieces. I felt bad for our waitress for walking back and forth for us so many times. They should probably distribute the quantities according to the table size and/or the dishes ordered at the table.
But I'm ready to go back already to try other stuff on their menu :)
