  • I was initially surprised with the food as the restaurant does not look like anything special from the outside. Great food, try the house made bread.…

  • Amazing every time…

  • I've been coming here for a few years and love the food. The chicken schwarma is top notch; meat is moist and I recommend having it in a samoon instea…

    Great food, but overpriced. Either give more beef, or the quality should be better. A little tough.

    After seeing this restaurant in as a favorite of the reviewers in Buffalo Spree’s Cheap Eats I decided to finally check it out. As it was, I’d been craving some middle eastern food, so I stopped in with my boyfriend. The restaurant was vacant for the middle of the day on Saturday but it was a nice atmosphere anyway. My boyfriend ordered the shirwarma chicken sandwich in a pita wrap, and I had the kebab sandwich in the Iranian samoon bread. We also ordered some of the hommus. I have to say, it was pretty tasty. I had never had the samoon bread and it really great as a sandwich. Nice taste on the food all around. The free tea was steamy and hot, and wonderful on a cold day! For the price of $15 it’s totally worth the visit! A truly great cheap eat!

    I’ve been here twice. Once good, once bad… I’ll give them another chance sometime.

    Great food, great prices. The food was great, the portions were very generous, and the people were polite. Really, that’s all I want, good food at a great price. Will definitely be going back. I suggest trying the sampler/mix for $12.99 and getting a taste of the different kinds of meat. The roasted chicken is delicious!

    Cheap, delicious and unique. I love to sample new foods and I was stoked to see this place serves some Iraqi items. The samoon sandwhiches here did not disappoint. Super cheap but amazingly delicious. I got a falafel samoon, my date a chicken shiwarma and both were amazing (my second favorite falafel after Falafel Bar). The samoon bread is a football shaped pod, lightly crispy on the outside & super soft inside, that is slit down one side and stuffed with your choice of filling, veggies and tahini. It keeps the fillings in really well, plus the soft inside soaks up the delicious juices. We also got apps – hummus for him and baba ganoush for me. Both were large portions and very tasty, served with a basket of pita and another samoon. They also offer free, selve-serve hot tea that is quite yummy. Service was fast and friendly. Restaurant was simple but cute and clean.
