We enjoyed a variety of salads, dips, falafel, and skewers, with the Baba Ganoush being the standout dish, although very garlic-heavy. The grilled chicken skewers were preferred over the lamb, as they were tender, juicy, and served in generous portions. While the meal was a bit pricey, it was a satisfying dining experience overall.

The bread wasn’t very special, maybe because it’s already cold by the time we got the food

The schnitzel is crispy and flavorful, and I also recommend trying any of the skewers as they are all well-seasoned and cooked perfectly. The salads and laffa are fresh and straightforward.

Unfortunately our experience was tainted by a male waiter who was really quite arrogant. He missed our tabouli order, which happens,. but he argued and was adamant we didn't order it. When he collected the bill folder with our payment his way of asking if it was ready to take was to say nothing, raise an eyebrow and point at it and when he returned with our change he didn't make eye contact or acknowledge us in any way. I will go there again for the food but will ask for a different staff member if he is there.

The chicken with hummus and salads were excellent, and the Laffa wrap bread was fantastic. The lunch menu had a good variety of options at reasonable prices.
