Had lunch here with the delightful Haneen O. We both had never tried out this place before but we excited to eat here based on the reviews. I decided to go veg for lunch and got the vegetarian combo which includes 3 falafel, baba ganoush, hummus, tabbouleh, grape leaves, and pita bread. It was a ton of food! It was also served to me seemingly in the blink of an eye it was that fast. My favorite part of the plate was the baba ganoush. It had a deep smoky flavor and had a more neutral taste vs. super acidic/lemony versions I've had at other restaurants. The hummus with smooth and well balanced, the tabbouleh fresh with a light lemon flavor, and the falafel had an intriguing flavor due to the incorporation of whole coriander in the filling.
As if my mountain of food weren't enough, they were nice enough to give us free baklava at our table. I was so full I ended up taking it home, but I thought it was really well executed when I finally ate it. The layers were crisp, buttery/flakey, and the filling wasn't too sweet.
The one major negative for me at least was that this small space doesn't get really good ventilation so it felt really warm to me when we were dining here. There was A/C but it didn't seem to be circulating throughout the whole restaurant well.
Overall it was a pleasant experience with great company. I'll be back!
EDIT: The owner messaged me saying they fixed their A/C system so there's cool circulating air to welcome you if you go there to eat now!
