The salad and the chicken kebab are just great!! Nice service. I've been coming to this restaurant for the last 10 years and it does impress me that every time the taste and flavors are just the same

Food and service is AMAZING! The lamb is cooked to perfection and I highly recommend the hot teas and the baklava with Turkish ice cream for dessert . And the food is SO fresh ????????

Caro

The chicken here is very good, and it comes with garlic sauce ! Big portions so order slowly. They're hummus is probably the best in town , just the right mixture of ingredients and excellent texture.

Timothy Kwong

Hummus is amazing and creamy ???? special item to get is the baklava with Turkish ice cream as well

When they say it's the best hummus in town , that ain't a lie. Must try! I'm from the middle east and I should say that I haven't tasted a better flavor than this hummus . :)

Their hummus was insanely good, you could put that hummus on a sneaker and I would eat it. The baklava was so yummy too! Can't wait to come here again

Pita & hummus is our go-to. Check out their garlic sauce and hot sauce too.

Shawarma was the best I've found since living in Bahrain. Great prices and portions. Hummus was great.
