I am not from Pittsburgh but was here on business. I had a craving for middle eastern food. When I asked at the hotel, they couldn't think of any place. This restaurant was only .3 miles away, surprisingly, the hotel staff didnt know of it.
Called in a take out order. When I went in to pick it up, the family invited me in to wait with them. I was introduced to the owner and his daughter, who seems to be the manager. Her daughter is the server. They were very friendly, asked where I was from, etc. I got a very good vibe from them.
The hummus and Baba-Ganoush were delicious and came with a large amount of nice thin pitas.
The Kefka (sp?) dinner came with a large salad and rice pilaf. The salad was just okay. The rice was very good. The Kefka itself was a little on the bland side. Not bad, not great.
I plan to go back and try a few other things on the menu. Given the authenticity and warmth of the owners I want to give this place another shot.
