| - We had the vegetarian feast and the manakish appetizers for lunch. I would not recommend the zaatar manakish. Not that it wasn't good, but it is exactly like what they bring to the table for free. I tried one of each topping (spinach, feta, zaatar), and definitely the spinach is the way to go because it actually has both spinach and feta on it. The vegetarian feast itself was plenty for two to split as a meal, especially because they bring unlimited breads to the table. I think the hummos, baba, tabouli, and falafel actually all taste very, very similar to Aladdin's. I probably prefer Aladdin's vegetarian combo because it also includes dawali, which Taza's does not. But on the other hand, Aladdin's does not give complimentary pita and zaatar. But no matter what you order, definitely ask for some of their outstanding hot sauce!
I've been wanting to check out Taza for a long time, and they did not disappoint. That being said, I probably won't go out of my way to come back any time soon. The food was good, and there were many other things on the menu I want to try, but the service was pretty slow. There just wasn't enough positives to overcome the hassle involved with eating out downtown (traffic, parking, etc). If I'm already downtown and looking for a place to eat, that's another story!
