Overall, if chicken kabobs were on the Cheesecake Factory menu, this version would be on the skinnylicious menu for those counting calories and preferring a healthier less indulgent version since flavors seem muted and textures appear lacking due to insufficient oil/grease.

At one point, when my friend and I mentioned that we had been waiting a long time for our food, a staff member responded sarcastically, saying, "We can't give you a ride in a car to bring your food." This kind of response was completely unnecessary, disrespectful, and unprofessional. It made an already frustrating situation even worse Mr. Atif and Kashif's behavior was even worse. They seemed frustrated by the crowd and ended up being rude to us.

I called the restaurant & spoke to a very kind gentleman who I assume is the owner. He said they offer an open buffet at 7:30 pm (call for details) & will consider more things for customers in the weeks to come. I am hoping music & dancing will become part of their late night offerings! I expressed this interest while on the phone. Welcome to Woodbridge, Rayhan Grill!

It's well-seasoned and lightly crisp. The side of rice tasted really good, too. I like my falafel crispy so I give this one 10/10. My husband would like to add that lemon mint juice was also 10/10. The inside ambiance was little too quiet lol. I think next time we're going to sit outside because outdoor seating looks so cool with cute little lights. I would come back to try more food and sit outside with hookah. PS: I hope they add more salad on the menu.
