Reviews
Kashkaval Borekas | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Crunchy, cheesy, and packed with flavor – this dish instantly transports me back to Eastern Europe. The grated tomato in the tahini is a brilliant touch, adding a vibrant burst of flavor.
Jerusalem Bagel w/ Labne and Zaatar | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolute fire. The bagel was toasted to perfection – crispy on the outside, soft and pillowy inside.
Avocado Toast | ⭐️⭐️⭐️½
Not sure if the Muhammara is the best base for the avocado, cucumbers, and other toppings. A labne base might work better for balance. Also, upgrading the bread to a high-quality artisanal sourdough instead of the standard, “wonder bread”-shaped toast would elevate the dish.
Lamb Pita “Arais” | ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️½
Beautifully seasoned with amazing flavors, but the lamb could be improved. Using succulent lamb shavings instead of the current kufte-style filling might take it to the next level.
Tea & Coffee Service
Impressive variety with great choices.
The servers feel more like unmotivated food runners than true hospitality professionals – they simply drop off glasses and dishes without much engagement and move on. There’s little effort to create a welcoming experience, which takes away from the overall vibe. It’s a shame because the atmosphere itself is lively and inviting, but the impersonal service dampens what could otherwise be a fantastic dining experience.
Very limited menu. The food we tried was all very good, including the falafel sandwich, the shashuka, the eggplant toast, and the burekas. The Hummus was amazing. Things are a bit pricey for what you get, but that is like most restaurants today. Most menu items are vegetarian. It’s definitely worth visiting.
