"This place has a great selection as you can order Mediterranean food as well as a burger or a pizza. I usually go for Mediterranean. I ordered the usual the shawarma chicken plate, their version of ice tea and thier dessert blacklawa. The chicken shawarma is on point, the ice tea is the real deal and the blacklawa is amazing. They have sofas and longe areas which makes the experience more enjoyable. The only thing is that food can take a while to be served and the sofas could use a good deep cleaning. The waiter was very attentive and kept refilling our ice tea. Definitely recommend!"
