Yummy food and nice people. It's quite close to the zoo, and walking to it wasn't too bad even though we were tired after visiting the zoo. We tried chicken and veggie platters, both were flavourful and light. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. We also brought their baklawa home and loved it.
Awesome place to get shawarma, hummus, and fresh pita. Salim, the owner, was super nice and welcoming and the staff overall were just wonderful. Prices are reasonable for the delicious food you get and portion sizes are large (see pics!). Highly recommend this place if in Cleveland Park!
Hopped in for a quick lamb pita while apartment hunting and was not disappointed. Lamb was tender and very flavorful and I loved the tahini sauce on the lavash. I will be coming here again!
Great food and friendly staff. Had a lunch with falafel, and chicken gyro, and both were excellent. The $38 price point for two entrees and four beverages was a great deal. High value and good food in a friendly and low-key space makes it a worthwhile stop.
Delicious shawarma and baklava. Seems family owned, great service, a little market section for grocery items and easy fresh to-go food in a case. This might sound silly but I love that they have a sink for hand washing outside the bathroom, what a great idea.
Absolute local gem. The food is delicious, especially the shawarma! All of their dips and sides are wonderful and fresh. Generous portions and a great price point. 10/10
EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING! Great tabouli, very fresh and high quality olive oil. The chicken was crispy, juicy, and even had a wonderful texture. The baklava was crispy and not overly sweet. This would def be a go to place to eat if I lived here.
We tried a bunch of things and everything was extremely delicious! The lentil soup is phenomenal and the falafel might have been the best I’ve had.
Cozy nice place close to the National Zoo, serving authentic Mediterranean food. Staff was courteous and food was fresh and flavored.
I absolutely love this place. Falafel is flavorful and tender, hummus is fantastic, the pizzas are really good (roasted eggplant is 10/10), and their baklava is perhaps the best I've ever had.
Delicious food!
They also have a variety of items like Sesame sweets, tahini, rose water, Turkish sweets, preserves, among others.
I cannot speak enough AMAZING things about this locally owned establishment! We had the chicken platter....YUM! Owners are super nice and helpful, located north of the Zoo right near the Metro stop. HIGHLY recommend you stop in here!
Fantastic local spot, always clean, always good food. The beef shawarma is my go to.
I come to this place for lunch as its adjacent to clevland park library. Today i tried one of the egyptian meal named ‘kushari’ and i loved it. Its really affordable and welcoming.
This was my favorite place to eat! The spicy chicken pizza was DIVINE! The atmosphere is so cozy and the owners are so nice. If I lived in the area I would be a regular!
The food here is delicious and affordably priced. Would recommend the pizza and the kafta!
Pita sandwiches were delicious. Especially the chicken which was excellent.
