My family and I have been visiting for years, and love it every time. The chicken shawarma with hummus is my go-to, and tonight's was even better than usual. I added the cucumber yogurt salad to my order for the first time, and its crisp cucumber, tangy yogurt, and spices were refreshing and tasty, a great complement to the savory main dish. The family who run this restaurant are kind and dedicated, and their food is the best!

This is my 3rd time ordering from here. The food is good. The tastes are consistent. The price point is good for buying a small sandwich type item or buying for a family or guests.

The chicken shawarma pictured isn’t what you get, although it has good flavor it isn’t flame broiled at all. I can also never guess how their fries are going to come out when I order gyros. They’re usually cold and not flavorful so I stopped ordering those. Pricing is also pretty high, the falafel sandwich alone is $9 and it doesn’t even come with a side like the rest of the sandwiches do.

It’s a family owned restaurant. The mom and the son are the ones who make all the food including the deserts. Everything is made fresh. I’m giving it 4 star since there aren’t many choices if you are vegetarian and the falafel I had was too dry but I’m sure that can be different. The flavor of the food felt just like home. In other words I highly recommend trying this place and make sure you leave space for a desert.

The plates have too much rice. For an $18 veggie plate, there was not enough actually food and more than half the plate was rice. After I was done eating the hummus, baba, etc. there was so much rice and bread left. Ratios are all off

The food, delicious; service, excellent; the atmosphere, pleasant! We will definitely return!

Delicious food at a reasonable price with friendly service. This is one of my favorite lunch spots downtown.

Great place! Delicious lamb kabobs. Baba & hummus really good. Reminded me of home! Sitto would approve, totally! Thanks for a great meal and conversation. Whenever I'm in the area this is a must!

Lentil soup was awesome! My niece had the best gyro. It was moist and spiced up, not plain. My sisters shish kabob on rice however was very dry and plain. Love the hummus light and fluffy and I like the extra garlic one but others in the group didn’t. Lots of take outs going on, but not a lot of diners.

When a friend recommended this place years ago I was a little skeptical because of the location in Colfax, but they quickly proved me wrong! Great lunch spot. The hummus is my favorite in town. Love the gyro pita sandwich as well
