Misleading. Called ahead and asked what portion size the mixed mezza platter. It was 40.00 and he said it was appropriate for four people. You decide where to spend your money I guess. I would've have paid 75-100$ if it was for food appropriate for four people. That's too bad.

I Finally had a chance to eat at this location. It's been a while since I ate at the Ferndale location. There's not many options in or around the Lake Orion / Oxford area for Middle Eastern food. My wife and I didn't have a reservation but our wait wasn't bad. (about 20 minutes as promised by the hostess)The middle eastern fare here is prepared using fresh and wholesome ingredients. We started with the fried cauliflower appetizer. (Tip: go with the zip sauce. It's amazing and not overly spicy) I ordered the baked Kibbeh that is served with tabbouli, fresh hummus and very tasty rice pilaf. The Kibbeh was good. My wife ordered the gyro plate that she thought was just ok. All in all our food was good but not great. I'll return to sample other entrees in the near future. It's great to have this local restaurant where the staff appreciates your business and that translates into their service.

If you live in the area and want some middle eastern food, this is probably the best location where you can enjoy this type of food. The restaurant is always clean and the staff is generally friendly. They have many of the classical favorites and the food is always fresh tasting. They also have a small roof top area that can be enjoyed in the warmer months as a bonus!!

This place is surprisingly DELIGHTFUL!We went here this past weekend bc we drive by it all the time and was looking for a lunch spot after spending the whole morning in the hot sun.When we walked in, I was impressed by how clean, well lit, modern, and airy the place was. Large windows and cute green tabletop plants really warm up the place but the neutral gray tone made it all super chic!This sounds silly but I knew I loved this place the moment I took a sip of my ginger ale. It tasted like it had a splash of vanilla in it. It was super refreshing and delicious.The menu has so much I wanted to try it all. Everything was very reasonably priced! Wraps for under $10! My husband and I opted for the mezza plate for two so we could try everything. Again, super reasonably priced meal. It would definitely feed three people, we took leftovers home. I love how they brought out the cold plate first before the hot plate so that we could munch quickly bc we were so hungry. The tabbouli was delicious. So was the chicken. The pickled vegetables were a great palette cleanser.We really enjoyed ourselves and would recommend everyone to come here. Even the music was fun! We are definitely coming back.

I'm so disgusted. We ate here tonight and both mine and my daughter's chicken was raw. She ate a whole tender before I noticed and then I checked the other two and they were translucent. This is so dangerous. When I called the woman on the phones response was "well I didn't cook it" and "im just surprised because the chicken is pre-cooked".. well it's obviously not. My stomach has been upset all night. Ugh

I'm so bummed. It's hit or miss lately with Anita's. Today they burned my falafel to a crisp. It was a lunch carry out so I'm stuck eating the sides only. Hummus was good. I might just stop doing carry out altogether.

One of my favorite places to eat in Orion. I get the Chicken Feta Fattoush salad on a weekly basis. I often get takeout, but they have a comfortable space and well-stocked bar.

Had dinner there yesterday. As a Mediterranean restaurant and seeing I've eaten this style of food for 40 years, their take on it was different. The shawarma was served almost in a gravy like grayish coating ? The chicken shawarma was equally in impressive. Only good proteins were the kabobs. Rice was far too soggy and over cooked, the majadra was equally disappointing. Way over cooked and lacked the proper plating.Overall not what we expected and left totally underwhelmed.Service was great, food quality and flavor is what was lacking. Bring back Lashish!
