I'm glad there is a Turkish restaurant in the area that doesn't just serve kebab as a takeaway, and…read moreI like their dining hall, so there are a couple of pluses to be had here. And the patlican is credible enough, though the lamb in it is nothing like what you'd have in Turkiye (and the waiters don't speak Turkish). But the mezes are a catastrophe - a misguided tasteless hummus; a cacik that could break a fork; and a saltless oilless carrot salad in yogurt, all framing a desultory house salad.

Missing pictures…read more... Quality/Quantity - Just follow the line. Just look for the longest and busiest line and it will be there. Actually, there are two lines, one for take away (on the left) and one for sit down. Both lines are just as long, but the take away moves much faster. Fairly organized. For the take away side, an employee takes orders while you wait in line, to expedite the process. (If you are from CA, think of an In and Out burger drive thru business model). Overall the food is good and reasonably priced. And great advertising seeing everyone walk around with your "sandwiches." Ambiance - Crazy busy. Both inside and outside. But plenty of employees (again both inside and outside). Fairly organized considering the volume. Service - Good. Price - Reasonable.10-15 Euros for a pita sandwich. $11.60 to $17.50 US. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1978.

Probably the second best falafel I've had in the world and the hummus and labneh were excellent. Honestly the entire menu was fabulous. I would love to go back!

They put the shawarma in a panini press to lock up all those delicious flavors and it doesn't sit heavy on you afterwards. The manaaesh- omg the manaaesh!

Their food is Lebanese and Middle eastern staples- a good collection of Mezzes (Hummus, Babaghanoush, Moutabel, Tabbouli, etc) with pita bread. We tried a 3 course meal which came with mezzes initially followed by a HUGE portion size main course (I had a halloumi cheese grilled wrap) and then desserts. In hindsight, the quantity was large and we should have ordered lesser- but food was top notch. There are also ample Vegetarian options across the board. Nice place, thank you to everyone for their service and tasty food. Will be back here again when we visit Paris
