Great tasting food!

I had heard about this place for years. On the way home I wheeled in and ordered take out: Chef Samir salad, spicy potatoes, fried cauliflower and he threw in a lentil soup. I took it home and holy cow it was good. The menu is clearly marked for the vegetarian options. So, it makes it easy. Some of the vegetarian options are probably vegan. I feel certain that everything I had for dinner was vegan. I will totally go back.

worest food and customer service

This is the worst place you can eat at, the food takes more than hour and half to get ready we entered this place at 7:00 pm and the server takes almost 20 minutes to get our beverages order and then we asked for appetizer and it takes more than hour to get the appetizer done it was moussaka and livers and fried calamari , we got only 2 appetizers and then after 20 minutes it got us the livers , when we looked angry and we want to leave she told us that our main dishes will come quickly this was after hour and half waiting for our food it came warm not hot , we said its OK lets eat and leave and after they got us the checks and split the checks between 2 families and after we paid we find that they added extra items we did not order when we tried to talk with the server they got angry and samir the owner came out and shout to us and we told him that this is wrong just give us a copy of the receipt and he refuses , how 1 person got 2 receipt for the same order for 2 different amount we already paid the first one he send to our table and the other family paid and then we find a third receipt for the same order i already ordered and paid for it and when trying to ask why is that samir shout and yell and say you are not polite and he told me that he can not get the receipt again they tried to double charged me without my knowledge
he is so rude and his food is getting worse and worse he is trying to cook by him self as a signature leaving the customers wait for hour and half and more for warm food not good even i was his regular customer but this is the last time for him in my favorite restaurant all he want is just money with bad taste and more than that very very bad customer service

Nice Meal

I came here with another vegan for lunch one day. It was a bit busy when we walked in, but we were seated and served quickly.

We ordered a bunch of the vegan appetizers and had a tapas style meal. It was a nice way to try a lot on the menu.

All of the food was really good. I plan on going back again if I'm in the area.

Pros: Good food, Good Service

enjoyed

I enjoyed chef Samir. My friend and my husband, who don’t like to stray outside their comfort zone, didn’t like the restaurant. My food was good and the staff was very nice and accommodating. I’ll go back.

AMAZING

This place is all around awesome. Chef Samir clearly puts his heart and soul into his restaurant, and he even comes to talk to all those who come and eat there! The atmosphere is friendly and it is very nicely decorated. Everything about this place is perfect, but the food is the best part. The food is INCREDIBLE.

Pros: The food, atmosphere and staff

Cons: A little pricey
