    Oil from a piece of eggplant through napkins
    Haku M.

    This place was horrible! Never had such bad kebab, the meat was so mushy! I dropped 1 piece of eggplant on 2 pieces of napkin and the oil was saturating the whole napkin and on the table! Soooooo bad never go back there! Fries were so saggy and full of oil!

    Wonderful Azerbaijan and Turkish food I ate here and it reminded me of my country.

    Poor man was all by himself but he is great! He was very sweet. The food was delicious. My husband got the plate and really enjoyed the rice. I got the wrap and it was delicious.

    This is what I got! It was so tasty and the veggies were juicy. My grandpa got a sandwhich and he enjoyed it as well. Very well served again

    I have been here before the food is good but I feel like whoever takes your order does not really understand what you want ordered that's a bit frustrating as a foodie. I feel like they're stingy with the schwarma in my opinion I got a wrap and I feel like I got more vegetables than meat. The fries are good and not really sure about other plates. The place is not too big plenty of parking and bathroom clean. Prices are so so compared to other Mediterranean places in SLCC. I'll just say it satisfied the craving.

    Stopped by and got a spicy beef wrap and a spicy chicken, fantastic as usual. Really one of my favorite places to grab a healthier option on the go, fries were crispy and hit the spot! The owners here are so kind as well, we will be back!

    Order here

    Found this place on Yelp and so glad we gave it a try! They have a shared private parting - it's a small restaurant but great food and really nice people! We got the Doner Kebab full size with only salad and bed lamb. The roasted veggies were so good! The beef/lamb was also very good! We got the mini DonerKebab with fries and a small salad so good. We were impressed with the freshness of the food and will be back to try more!

    I would give this place 10 stars if I could. Wow, it is amazing. So much flavor in every bite. We will be coming back for sure.

    Food was delicious and service was excellent. We sat and spoke and are therefore over 2 1/2 hours and we weren't rushed. Simple place and great food. Will be back soon.

    Decent but definitely not worth the food poisoning. Meat sits out for a long time and gets warm and then gets served--yikes!

I personally afraid to order chicken since most restaurants I went to always comes out dry, but the chicken was cooked perfectly. I would definitely come back when I visit Salt Lake City again. A lot of parking space. I think most people order to go, but they have a lot of tables to sit. They also have booths where the table is low and looks like you can sit on the floor.

This was REALLY outside of my comfort zone, but I'm trying to push myself to try new things. When I walked in, I was warmly greeted. The whole place felt very inviting. It was fairly empty for lunch on a Friday but more people did filter in throughout my meal. They are a Pepsi establishment, and my Diet Pepsi was pretty good! I ordered the mix koobideh kabob which comes with one chicken and one beef kabob. It also comes with rice, onion, and basmati rice. I also ordered a side of plain naan since they were out of garlic. The meal comes with soup. The soup smelled amazing and looked nutritious with lentils and vegetables. I'm personally not a soup person because I don't like mushy foods, so the texture was hard for me but I thought the flavor was great. The kabobs smelt AMAZING and the flavors match it. The meat on both was incredibly tender and juicy. The flavors really came through nicely. I also really enjoyed the grilled tomato. Overall, this was a really good experience for me especially since it was so far out of my comfort zone.

    My wife and I stopped in for an early dinner on a Saturday. They had New England Clam Chowder as a…read morespecial and we ordered a bowl to share. I ordered the Beef Shawarma and my wife got the Musakhen with fries. The Clam Chowder was good. I've certainly had better, like at Market Street in town or at the Brigantine in the San Diego area. The server was kind of stumbling over his words when he described it and until it arrived I wasn't sure if it was going to be New England clam chowder or Manhattan. He proclaimed that it was the best clam chowder you'll ever get at a Middle Eastern restaurant and I can't really argue about that. The Beef Shawarma is served in a wrap that is open at both ends and cut in half. They put a small portion of pickled items on the plate and dust everything with sumac powder. The beef is thinly sliced. I really didn't enjoy the flavor. The greens in the wrap were extremely bitter and in my opinion it made for an unpleasant flavor. Maybe I just got extra bitter greens on mine but it was overwhelming everything else. I didn't like that the wrap was open, I had to lean over my plate as I ate because the sauce was dripping out and I didn't want to get it on my clothes. Eventually I gave up and used my fork to pull the meat out of the other half so that I could avoid the bitterness. The Musakhen (that's how it is spelled on the menu) was also a wrap. I tried a bite and I liked that better than the beef Shawarma but I still didn't really like something about the flavor. The fries were nicely crispy and fresh but there is a seasoning on them that really wanted to be on my fingers more than it wanted to be on the fries or my napkin. Like no matter how hard I tried to wipe it off there was still some of it on my fingers. Once again there was something about the flavor I didn't really like. My wife eventually offered up some of the aioli and it made it a little better but once again I didn't really like the flavor of the aioli. So for whatever reason the flavors there just aren't for me. My wife on the other hand was very excited about everything and was talking about all the things she was going to try the next time we visited. I didn't want to be a negative bummer during the meal but I was thinking she was going to have to come back with someone other than me. The restaurant is nice and they have very good service. There were a few other tables of large groups and it seems like this is a place that works well for get togethers. Parking is not adequate at all. We got a spot but only because we got there at 4:50 for dinner. I overheard other people talking about the trouble they had finding a spot.
