Hayat Cafe

The food was delicious, but sadly the service is absolutely terrible! They had one server for the whole restaurant, so everything took forever to come. Be prepared to wait a long time for everything if you go.

This place was empty when my coworkers and I came for lunch (only one other group here). Service was quick and the waiter was nice and helpful, if not too chatty. I got the koobideh kabob. The portions here are huge. I think the plates should be a little bigger bc cutting your meat and eating was a little messy with the rice spilling off the side. The tea was very strong and delicious. The restaurant itself was beautiful with patterned tables and chairs and pillows. They also offer hookah here and have a stage in the back for live music/performances. Can't wait to come back!

It's a hidden gem for sure!! When here you must order the lamb shoulder! Enough to feed 4-5 people, delicious sauce, unique presentation and it's an experience!

I call before I came drove thirty minutes no one was here I was the minor of magnificent colour lighter shade I own the right this term Yvonne T. Mitchell the waiter was about to sit me and the with rotten yellow teeth ask for my number just in case they have open reservation they will call me

We had an enjoyable lunch here recently. The three of us shared the Testi Kabob which says it is for two but was more than ample for the three of us girls for lunch. It is a lamb stew cooked in a clay pot which is brought flaming to the table and makes for a dramatic presentation. It comes with three appetizers so we chose falafel, yogurt with cucumber and baba ganoush. The last was exceptional with a delicious smoky flavor. Our server was friendly and attentive. The paper menus don't offer much detail but if you scan the QR code on the table you get a more detailed menu with pictures that was very helpful.

I love this place!! The overall ambiance is perfect for a get together with a couple of friends. Maybe some tea time, lunch, or hookah sesh.Or if you prefer a more energetic vibe, you can come on a Fri/Sat night where they have a belly dancing performance and live Dj! I've seen it get pretty lively some nights with people dancing and having a good time.Hookah is great, just what I'd expect. And I'm always pleased with the kebabs. Chicken, beef, you name it; they are all quite delicious. It's hard to pick a favorite dish...but the chicken options are my go-to.Overall, I can easily recommend this place. I've been here plenty of times with friends+family, and I will continue to return!

Where should I start? Low quality food, music so load which we had problem talking to the waiter, or the fact that they charged us three times for one check?Let's start with the most annoying, the day after we did the mistake and went there for spending some time with friends, I saw two transactions on my credit card for the same check, and obviously I disputed one of them and obviously the credit card company canceled one the transaction, but here comes the fun part. Next time one of my friends went there( without me) the owner told them that you disputed the transaction for last check and now you owe us money!!!! And they paid them again. So I would call this super bad management or theft and robbery in day light!!!Stay away from this place as long as and as far as you can!

this place is a ripoff, cash only. Otherwise, you must pay 20% CC charge and the tip is enforced to %18 like or not. wondering, cash is encouraged, is owners trying to cheat IRS.

Fkn terrible they lucky I can't give 0 they want 25 as a entrance fee In weekends bullshut

Terrible service!!!! Worst waiter i have seen over the last few years. Ground meat kabab was not fresh made from old meat. Kunefe extremely dry with no syrup. Not going to this restaurant again!
