The first time they forgot the entire side of Rice, but shame on me for not checking your bag. The second time they quoted me 20 minutes on the phone and after we got to the restaurant and waited 35 minutes, she told me whoops, we lost your ticket. We wait 15 more minutes and even though I ordered kebab skewers, I was given weird thin grilled chicken breast with no vegetables. The other entrée was ice cold. We placed another order today, I even asked her to make sure it was correct because we've had two bad experiences back to back. Quoted 20 minutes, we get the food after 30 minutes and the entire sandwiches is wrong. So they remake the sandwich and give us french fries that are ice cold with the new sandwich. The lack of attention to detail for the cost of the items is just not worth it. Just disappointed overall... not sure what's happened there recently.

Honestly, the food is that good, and the service is great, too. When I came to pick up my order, they even gave me some baklava on the house. When the apocalypse hits, this is where I'm hiding.

Sounded so good and will probably buy it and update this review in the future. It is a small local business and the owner, mostly Turkish and Arabic speaking, was very nice and cordial.
