- ★★★★★Rawad W.
I ordered the kofta tahini, and it tasted incredibly authentic. It was honestly the closest I’ve had to what I grew up eating back home. The flavors were rich, well-balanced, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The sujuk & halloumi manakeesh was another standout.
- ★★★★★Bashar D.
The food was very, very delicious and honestly brought back the feeling of eating back home. It has been such a long time since we tasted food with this kind of authentic, homemade flavor here in Canada, and I’m genuinely so happy that we finally found a place like this.
- ★★★★★Kate M.
I had the chicken and lamb kofta platter and za'atar flatbread, finished off with some mint tea. The portions were generous and the ingredients were fresh. The space itself is bright and welcoming with ample seating for groups, large or small.
- ★★★★★Jennifer Y.
Food was hot and fresh, chicken was flavourful and not too salty, and most of all not dry! Hummus and garlic sauce was equally delicious, and loved the freshly made and still warm, fluffy and puffy pita bread that came with the meal.
- ★★★★★Omar A.
Everything was done beautifully. The chicken was delicious and grilled perfect but still juicy. The rice was soft and flavorful. The salad + dressing, hummus, and garlic were all fantastic as well.
- ★★★★★Jhon S.
Everything was absolutely delicious, the chicken was juicy and the skin was perfect and seasoned really well. My girlfriends shishtawook was also amazing. Overall really recommend it.
