| - I wanted to like this place a lot but all in all I was disappointed. This middle eastern haven was well reviewed and was quite genuine located in an inexpensive part of town in a strip center with several Middle East food trucks parked adjacent which actually looked quite interesting. Next door was a kabob place that looked like it had possibilities and s hookah bar which did not, at least to me.
This business is supposed to consist of three aspects: a bakery, an ethnic grocery store with a butcher and a restaurant. I think the restaurant is an exaggeration. As best I can tell. It consisted of s couple tables where you could eat what you bought at the bakery.
There was a great guy working the counter in the bakery. He was very helpful and willing to answer each of my ceaseless questions. There were not too many goods to look at. The Syrian bread, the impetus for my visit was really pretty good. I would have loved to taste them warm fresh out of their brick oven and I wondered how long they had sat there bagged. But still, all in all, pretty good. I also bought for if their pies which are small and with pretty pastry. There is a minimum of four. The spinach were pretty delicious, the chicken which was pretty good and the beef which was better than just okay. They also sell s variety of baklava which they didn't have, a variety of macaroons which I took a pass on, something they called pizza which didn't look exciting to me, yogurt which the guy who worked there said was made there and similar to but thicker than Greek yogurt but still didn't sound too enthusiastic about, and that was about if. I had been hoping to take Home some of the delicious side dishes that the middle eastern cultures are famous for.
Then into the densely crowded and stocked grocery store. It was filled with items I was unfamiliar with and had there been anybody to ask I'm sure I would have purchased snd tried a few items. I had been in particular been looking forward to the butcher shop area. They advertised goat and lamb and I was planning on bringing home some goat chops and some interesting cuts and maybe some advice. I got none of these. There were only a couple things in the counter and some frozen things in a heap on a cooler. There was a guy working there but he ignored me so I took a pass. There was a sign quoting forty bucks to use their saw which was certainly unique to see in s grocery store. I wonder if that was s good price. On The way out, a guy carried in s dead goat. That was also unique and I wonder if it was headed to the saw!?
The guy who checked me out (I did buy a bag of coos coos) was not very outgoing do I failed yo learn as much as I wanted on what were the true possibilities of this business. I probably will try it again sometime maybe in a Friday when I hear the bakery is better stocked. So, I'd say I am disappointed based on other reviews which had brought me here but still hopeful.
