I had the hearty lamb stew and it was excellent. Rich seasonings with a tomato base and plenty of lamb meat. If you are in a Georgian restaurant you need to try the cheese bread which was hot off the oven and delicious. The ambiance is that of a small cafe. In Poland I have found that service is not immediate so you need to be proactive without being ugly. I am glad l went off the beaten path for this one.

We went based on friends recommendation and we have nothing good to say about them. The food we…read moreordered didn't look even similar to what they have on the picture and it tasted like it was stored for a few days before serving. We got stale bread and when inquired about, the "waitress" took it back and brought fresh one without saying a word. The "waitress" was more a bus girl, who could not make recommendations or engage in any food related conversation. Place is small and tries play on cozy / exclusive, while comes across as cheap. Prices for Poland are on a higher end. Georgian beer was more like bud light. Also, not a place if you going there with a vegetarian. I would avoid it

So when I was in town recently after two years away, a friend suggested lunch. We were in the vicinity, and decided this would be our choice. We were dining at an off hour as it was quiet and not crowded. The server was really great, and we got a chance to talk to him a bit as we finished up and left. My friend and I had a lovely, relaxing conversation while we ate and the atmosphere and AC were the perfect combination for a relaxing respite in the middle of our day. I ordered pork in a garlic sauce served with rice - a Basil & Lime special. I really liked it, albeit it was a tad spicy. Presentation was beautiful, and I would definitely order it again. I also had a thai tea and enjoyed that as well, though it wasn't anything writing home about. Overall, a nice pleasant atmosphere, great location, friendly service, and tasty food. If you're looking for some Asian cuisine in Warsaw and want to get outside the center, this is a great option!

It may be a thoughtful adjustment with nice results, or a disappointing catastrophe. Basil & Lime, fortunately, does the first thing. It's probably not the curry you got on one of the Thai islands, but surely you won't regret eating it. The dishes are a little heavier than in Asia, with more meat and different kinds of veggies. But in the end, the food is tasty and fresh. Good for lunch.

Sahara restaurant was the first place we stopped by to have dinner on Christmas Day when we arrived…read morein Warsaw. Actually we went to kebab king, which was around the corner first but they didn't have any clear signs for halal food. The employees' English was not very good and it's not their fault that they didn't know how to respond to our question of halal food. Hence we landed at Sahara, where they had clear labeling of halal food. Even though the employees here didn't know a word of English either, they were extremely helpful and were able to place the order for a soup and kebab platter. Unfortunately when it came time to pay our credit card wasn't available to work with their credit card machine and I didn't have cash. But the employee was awesome and he took dollars and gave us change in Polish zlotys which helped us delay our trip to the currency exchange store. The food was awesome and customer service excellent.

We had a great brunch! I had the polish traditional soup (żurek), with sausage, ham, eggs and veggies, and then a mix french-polish dessert. I would strongly recommend the soup, but a little less the dessert. It wasn't bad, but nothing special and perhaps a little dry (despite the custard inside). I believe I should have picked one of their other desserts, which looked fabulous. The waiter had actually recommended the one with poppy seeds, perhaps you can be a better customer than I was and listen to his advice Service is very welcoming, nice, fun and hospitable. Environment is also very welcoming, and nicely located, about 20 mins on foot from the train station. Would definitely recommend!

With hanging curtains, colorful table clothes and warm color carpets, you do not feel in Poland for a moment. Waitress are dress is traditional clothes with sparkling bells. Our waitress, besides of being super friendly, spoke perfect English and Spanish! Always a pleasure. Menu is looong! you might need extra few minutes to figure out what delicious plate you will select. On the other hand there is something for everyone. An entire page of vegetarian dishes, and a few sample dishes as well if you like to try a little bit of each of the most popular dishes.We asked for one of this and included babaganoush, hummus, lamb, chicken and salad, pair with warm pita bread. It was delicious! Lentil soup was warm, not heavy and very yummy. Food was served within minutes. Excellent service indeed! They have a separate room for groups. Probably you could fit about 15- 20 people comfortably. Nice for a more private environment. Looking forward to our next visit and to try the water pipes! multiple flavors to choose from. Enjoy!

I'm rating this place a full five stars on the food alone…read more The building is small and a little dirty feeling but I really don't mind as the price reflects the ambiance or lack there of. If you have a group of 4 or more it's always a good idea to call ahead as the place have very limited seating. I ordered the Tandori chicken, chicken Marsala with basmati rice and butter naan. Everything was really delicious and well priced. For all that and a Pepsi my total came out to an even 70.00. Well over enough food and I even took most of the Tandori chicken home. The service was friendly and the food was served with lighting speed- I'm talking within 10 minutes! So if you're looking for delicious and fast served Indian food, look no further!

The shakshuka was also great, but a bit different from what I typically have in the US. This tomato sauce was slightly sweeter, and there was no cheese. I liked that it came in a smaller size and that I got to enjoy a bunch of side dishes as well. I enjoyed this meal on a sunny morning and overall it was super zen.

The mezze boards are a great way to try out a bunch of different items, and the Neve Tzedek came with 6 mini falafels, muhammara (a walnut and red pepper paste), black olives with rosemary, couscous, and three different kinds of vegetables: cumin-spiced Moroccan carrots, marinated beets, and marinated radishes. The board also came with chewy pita bread and two different kinds of sauces: a mustard aioli and a mango-chipotle sauce. I also added a ramekin of hummus to this board, which was super creamy and perfect for dipping with the falafels and pita! Next, I tried the shakshuka with "meat," a tomato and pepper stew topped with imitation gyros, tofu-feta, red onions, and tahini. Both the mezze board and shakshuka were tasty dishes, though relatively expensive for the portion sizes. Nevertheless, this made for a fun option for a healthy meal!

My favorite components of the plate were the creamy hummus and the crispy fatayer, but everything was delicious and perfect for eating with the thin pita bread on the side. I also tried the Kofta Harra, which were three spicy ground lamb kebabs served with grilled vegetables, garlicky toum, and a spicy tomato paste. The lamb kebabs were juicy and perfectly spiced, and all the flavors were on point!
