The dining room is on the smaller side and has a combination of booth/table seating. Our server was very helpful and happy to answer our questions on menu items. We all ordered wraps for lunch and were very happy with our selections. I ordered the shish kabob pita. The grilled beef was tender and juicy and paired well with the garlic sauce. The wrap did not come with a side but we added rice for an additional 6 dollars. The rice portion was large and able to be split among two people. We learned Dalia's is a family owned restaurant and were given insight on the work that goes into the selection. The special desert item of the day was a home made Dubai chocolate bar. Our server told us about the process of perfecting the bar and how the family worked for a few months to get create the perfect recipe. The chocolate bar was $15 dollars and was large enough to be split among the 3 of us. We were very happy with our visit and would love to return. The food was authentic and delicious.

The mixed grill had beef kabob(4/5), chicken kabob (1/5 too dry), and beef kofta (4/5), salad, hummus, and the utter star of the show garlic sauce.

If you're looking for a casual, affordable lunch spot, Fattoush is a great choice…read more I ordered the eggplant pita and was so impressed. The pita is clearly made fresh and somehow stays sturdy without falling apart. Ask them to cut it in half to make it even easier to eat. The eggplant is savory and perfectly balanced with fresh veggies and tahini. The portion size is just right for lunch. It's counter service, super casual, and the staff are incredibly friendly. Great quality and value all around.

I wish I had a sixth star to give…read more One of the best meals we've ever had. We had: Flatbread, the one with the raw egg yolk on it. Wow, so delicious with the spices, the tangy cheese, the creamy egg, and the dough which was tender and flaky. Eggplant 'steak', also a banger. So many different flavors and textures presented in one delicious dish. And the lamb shank. Holy crap, one of the best meals I've had, period. The meat itself is meltingly tender and perfectly seasoned. All of the other stuff on the plate, the dill rice, the red stuff, crispy chickpeas, fava beans, some green sauce and parsely, it might sound like too much but it works so perfectly. Each bite containing a whole odyssey of textures and intense flavors. We got the signature dessert, a nest of phyllo with cardamom mousse, saffron syrup, fresh raspberries and more I'm forgetting. An absolute show stopper, and perfect with a turkish coffee. Even the turkish delight that came with the coffee was delicious. Service was helpful, prompt, and abundantly kind. This might be the best fine dining ROC has to offer.

Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and accommodating, and their kindness really stood out throughout the evening. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor, and you could tell a lot of thought and care went into each plate. I tasted the Khachapuri flat bread, Wild Mushrooms, Lamb Lollipops, Kurobuta Pork Chop and the Braised Lamb Shank. Also pictured, the Duck Risotto and the Tomahawk steak. Between the exceptional service, delicious food, and inviting atmosphere, this was a truly memorable dining experience. I would absolutely recommend it for a special occasion or simply a great meal, and I'll definitely be back.

The restaurant is situated in a little square, yet its plain facade hides the delicious food that awaits you inside. There is plenty of seating around the room, with a sizable section in the center that is ideal for gatherings of friends and family. Honestly, the casual, unassuming ambiance and modest decor may make you pause at first. I implore you, nevertheless, to not judge a book by its cover. Take a seat, put your order, and get ready to enjoy a filling dinner. Halal meat is a key element of the menu, which is a big plus for people who value this dietary choice. My family selected the Chicken Kabsa, but I went with the Chicken Mandi. The fact that both dishes were served hot and fresh was evidence of their quality. It takes a little while to prepare the cuisine, but the wait is definitely worth it. Be patient. While the Chicken Kabsa had the ideal balance of spices and soft chicken, the Chicken Mandi was juicy and flavorful. I added the given sauce and hot sauce to take the dish to the next level, adding an amazing depth of spice and flavor. We couldn't help but sample the Basbosa dessert after our main course. This dessert was the ideal way to cap off our meals, giving it a traditional Yemeni sweetness that left us feeling utterly content From beginning to end, the meal experience is made pleasurable by the attentive and helpful staff.
