I was in the mood for Mediterranean food, and last time I was at Kabob Palace they took sooo long to get us our food, so we decided to check out Lily's. Upon entering, we stood there for about 5-10 mins. before anybody even noticed that we were there. There was a big table w/ about 20 people, so I guess the waitress was busy.
After we were seated, it took a painfully long time to order and even get our water. I was getting so impatient that I wanted to leave. We actually walked down strip mall to grab a menu and check out Amena Bakery, and FINALLY when we got back the waitress was giving us our drinks.
I think they realized that we were getting impatient so they started bringing out our appetizers and were quick with our order. Once the food came it was very good. You couldn't have asked for better grape leaves, hummus or baba ganuche. The falafel was a little dry, but they gave us a free order of tabbouleh, so that made it a little better. I was pretty stuffed after the appetizers, but my companions were raving about the food.
I would have given Lily's four stars, but the wait really put a sour taste in my mouth. It just goes to show that you never have a second chance to make a first impression.
