Not all of the dishes were a hit, but we really enjoyed the appetizer sampler platter (baba ghanoush, hummus, labaneh) and chicken shawarma wrap Damascus style (w/ fries, garlic sauce, and pickles on the side).

The staff welcomed me warmly, gave great menu suggestions, and even offered complimentary appetizers. I ordered the lamb rice with salad and grilled bell peppers, along with their amazing bread basket. The atmosphere is fantastic, complete with a full bar and great decor.

I paired my meal with a Nepal Ice Beer, which was refreshing and complemented the food perfectly. The highlight, without a doubt, was the Chicken Chilli. The balance of spice, salt, sweetness, and Chilli sauce was exceptional--every bite was perfectly seasoned. I've traveled across four continents--Asia, Europe, North America, and Australia--and I can honestly say this is one of the best Chicken Chilli dishes I've ever had. The flavor balance and execution were simply outstanding. Unfortunately, I had to rush to catch my flight, so I couldn't stay as long as I wanted. Even so, the meal left a lasting impression, and I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town. Highly recommended for anyone looking for incredible food, a relaxing atmosphere, and an unforgettable dining experience.

All the momos were delicious as well, I especially liked the ones that were deep fried. It was a great experience and I will for sure come back! 10/10 recommend!

Unique food truck in Bay Area! This isn't just a food joint but it's an experience!…read more Vegetarian reviewer: To start with, I am not usually a big fan of too many eggs on my plate, but I thoroughly enjoyed their innovative creations. They have interesting dishes with paneer and chicken as well. We ordered two dishes- Leela lasun keema - This dish was intriguing, with cheese, grated egg, and a rich, spicy gravy. The portion size was generous; a single person won't be able to finish it with just three breads. It was very filling, we took back home the leftover and enjoyed it later with some rotis. They have another version of this- "kachu" with runny eggs instead of grated eggs.. well thought option! Volcano egg biryani- The dish is as interesting as its name suggests. The base is an omelette, and the rice is flavorful with bell peppers, finely chopped veggies, and aromatic spices. The center is with a tomato-based curry. The cheese on the side was amazing, and I loved it. The spicy guava drink is super refreshing with a playful mix of spice, salt, sourness, and the sweetness of guava. I really enjoyed it! They have music playing and the place is lit, creating a total vibe for spending time in the evening on a lazy weekend/ after work, or post-workout. The food is pure indulgence and covered our protein requirements with eggs, along with some fat to burn off. Kinda guilt free. Also, they have games, garba events and other many interesting things going on at different times. Superb vibes, never disappoints! Conveniently located in Sunnyvale - easy to find parking. Ask the owners for their recommendations based on your preferences. They are very nice to talk to and are super passionate about this truck, having brought something they loved from New York to the Bay Area.

Double Combo Plate - Turmeric Rice - Chicken Shawarma and Gyro Beef - The Works (Everything included) - Tzatziki sauce - Falafel (Side) - Waffle Fries (Side) Okay, the presentation of the combo plate wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but I looked past it. Unfortunately, the chicken and beef were lacking in flavor and were pretty dry. The portions were generous, though the gyro beef was sliced pretty thin. The veggies were actually fresh, which was a plus. The hummus was on the lighter side flavor-wise, while the Baha Ghanouj had a solid roasted aftertaste. The Achilles spread was... interesting. It was very fatty with a garlic aftertaste. It just wasn't my thang. The waffle fries were cool. They were fried well and had a good crunch, but nothing special. The falafel, though, was pretty disappointing. I'm not sure if I just got a bad batch. They were very crunchy, but had a weird dish-soap aftertaste that I couldn't get past. I couldn't finish the rest. Sorry, but I'll be on the lookout for another Mediterranean spot.

I finally was here during the day so made it a point to stop by to pick up kebobs for to go since it's a market vs. a restaurant. You choose the kebobs and he grills it right outside the store. By calling it in, we had a shorter wait but still with enough time to browse the store. We ordered extra with the intention of sharing with my parents, not realizing that most of the kebobs with house spices had a kick to it with some too spicy for me so definitely too spicy for them. So, the charbroiled lamb chops were the only ones that I was able to eat since it was only salt and pepper. Overall, great price and friendly service. Just be aware to specify spice levels if you're sensitive to heat or order ones with just s&p.

We did end up getting koobideh, heart and veggies. Everything was absolutely delicious for an amazing price. The koobideh was juicy and flavorful, better than most persian restaurants nowadays. The heart was also good, but definitely not something for everyone. I am excited to come back to try the liver/kidney if all of this was so good! You can call beforehand for takeout because it does take around 20-30 minutes for it to be ready. I called multiple times trying to place an order and no one was picking up. When I walked in I saw it was only one guy working and he apologized for not answering as they had a large order. The guy was super sweet and apologetic, which made me give the full 5 review.

My fiance and I ordered the Nagoya special with shakshuka, a cappuccino, an iced mocha, and a pistachio baklava. The coffee was pretty standard, so next time we will just enjoy their tea. It took about 5-10 minutes for our food to come out. The menu says the special is for 2 people, but we had trouble finishing everything. You could probably share this with 4-5 people.

One thing to note about the dining experience is that it was uncomfortably hot inside the restaurant.

I felt so relieved when I stepped outside.
