I had a zaatar manouche and a bowl of peanut soup to start and then their ox tail, black eyed bean stew and jalloff rice and it was all amazing I loved their food and they were both really friendly as well. It was my first time here and I definitely will be coming back here with my girlfriend and definitely recommend this place to anyone else. I've meaning to come here for years and regret not coming here sooner.

Pleasantly surprised! From the outside looking in, the place looks outdated and in huge need of renos...i.e. its not a posche all day breakfast place. However, the food is what brings people back. Portions are huge, tasty, and better then the rest of the breakfast places in the area. You gotta eat here!
