We went there with in-laws. First of all, it is not very spacious. As a second thing, we were served dirty plates and utensils. They changed it when we asked them to do so.We ordered a combo for 5. It comes with a salad and 2 choice of side dishes. The food was delicious but a but oily. We also got fries, baba ghanoush, and Iraqi salad. The portions are HUGE though.Overall our experience was OK. Maybe will come again, maybe.

Best Iraqi food and great friendly service. Love the authentic flavor of the food. We tried all 3 meals here and it was the greatest idea the food is so good, highly recommend to try their food. Love the customer hospitality here. Wish they had more options though.

Food was good but not great. The chicken kebab was excellent but the other types of grilled meat weren't that great. Server was excellent and she's the reason I'm giving four stars and not three

I haven't had Middle Eastern food this good in a while! Really authentic spread and delivery of the food in large portions. The prices are unbeatable as well!

Terrible terrible terrible!!! One for dirty restrooms! One for server unprofessional and cleanliness and one for we left the place hungry because of the clean and service no1 for us !! for food quality don’t worry you’ll get best delicious food another place because you are in El Cajon !!!

Fresh, authentic Iraqi food! The olive salad was to die for! The Lentil soup was good, but was not served hot. The Beef kabob was another winner! Definitely recommend

The only reason I gave it 3 stars is because of the quality of the bread they serve, it is dry and it feels old but other than that the customer service is great and the food is amazing. Specially the qozi I love this plate. I recommend this place for anyone.

Hands down El Cajon's best Middle Eastern restaurant. Great service, value and food.

The ace has some great varieties. It's small but that's okay. It's intimate.

It’s the best and my favorite ?
