"Been to TKS at other locations and liked the food. Today I stopped for a quick pick up lunch and just got a single wrap. The San Diego style (with added French fries and feta) sounded intriguing and I splurged. The wrap had the potential for 5-stars but was 4-due to my own error. Namely h did not get extra of the OG Yogurt/ Garlic sauce. The carved chicken was robust flavor, but the French fries increased the volume and diluted the chicken flavor. The yogurt sauce was present across the whole wrap but it was hiding in between tortilla folds and had pockets of concentration and other areas lacking enough sauce. If I had an extra sauce (which I could have gotten from the sauce bar), then I would have added it where needed and it would have been great. The feta cheese added some firm texture and saltiness that paired will with the other ingredients. The romaine lettuce added a crunch and together with the tomatoes added freshness to the wrap. Total volume with the French fries was large, bigger than I expected and I have about 5 bites left when I got full. I predict that a normal wrap would have been just the right amount for a solid lunch."
"Some of the best baclava I've ever had! Perfect for parties and reasonably priced. I'd suggest ordering ahead for large platters."

"Nice place, the outdoor area and bathroom are aesthetically pleasing. The service was good and I enjoyed sitting by their fire pits under heat lamps as well. I stayed warm throughout my hookah session with my best friend. The down side is they have these paper thin cushions to sit on their marble seating and after thirty minutes, it becomes uncomfortable to sit there. We wound up gathering a few cushions of stack on top of each other just to relieve the pain. I hope they buy new cushions for their outdoor patio. The hookah flavor was picked by the worker because we couldn't make up our mind and it was good. I will probably return again if I'm in the area."
"All Panini Kabob Grills have all the right things:* a true scratch kitchen* high quality ingredients * proteins are: antibiotic / hormone-free / sustainably raised....and hence, everything is delicious. Simple and flavorful. Love.And for extra bonus points: Third party deliveries are sealed in tamper-proof packaging, for the win!"
"Today once again, I visited Sahara Falafel. The customer service was warm and welcoming. The food was exceptional, well seasoned and portions were great. I ordered the combo sandwich and my husband order a falafel sandwich along with a humus plate. Deeelicious! It was so nice to dine in and pause for a moment from our busy day. Thank you, (JazakAllah khairen) Sahara Falafel for being a halal staple in our community."
"I recently discovered the beauty of lamhajuns from other bakeries, and I was excited to try them here! They were tasty as expected, and I love that they are a light and affordable snack. We also tried the khachapuri, spinach boreg, and zaatar manaish. The khachapuri was light in flavor so we needed to add some salt and pepper. I appreciated that it was a good, simple pastry. The zaatar manaish has a fluffier dough and is drier than the lahmajun. It's good on its own, but I could see myself adding cheese to it since that seems like a good pairing. The man at the cashier is so friendly and makes you feel welcomed. The parking lot is tiny, but we've been lucky to find parking easily on our visits."
"Got the chicken while my friend had a beef shawarma combo. Amazing wrap and seasoned nicely with delicious dinner. Served very fresh to order.Fries are good too despite coming on a weekday. Love to come by and get more. Portions are generous overall."
"So good, highly recommend. Rosario was so sweet and helpful as it was first time at the restaurant! My favorite item from the chicken bowl was surprisingly the lemon garlic potatoes! Cooked perfectly! Chicken, Lemon Chicken Pita was also delicious. Hummus and rice good too! Ambiance was chill and large room to dine in. Thank you Pita Pita for a great lunch!"
"I love this healthy fast food restaurant. It is so close to where I swim laps. It is also next to a popular restaurant that I used to go to(Everyday Eatery) who got rid of their vegan options (what shame!) so I didn't go back to that restaurant nor this shopping center. Wow, now Sajj will be my favorite place to go to, here. It is a 'Chipotle' style for Mediterranean food. I know it is a fast food but it is much healthier than most. There are lots of vegan options(marked with a 'V'). A bowl with rice or salad, a wrap, or a pita sandwich is the option for vegans, with Falafels. The price is $11.75 for any of the style. I picked vegan bowl with rice then add eggplant ragout, sumac cauliflower, hummus, cucumbers tomatoes mix, cherry peppers mix, lettuce, and spicy tahini sauce on top. One can add many more from the table that is marked with a 'V' and there are a lot. The rice was tumeric rice. I sprinkled some sumac on top. The lentil soup is included with it. For $11.75 it is a huge deal! I could not finish this bowl as it is a lot of food. There were 4 falafels! These falafels are one of the best I have tried.Unfortunately there is only 1 in SoCal. It is a fast food chain or franchise restaurant and started in Northern California. We need more! Thank you so much for providing so many vegan options. My recommendation is not to go during meal times as it can be crowded. The line never stopped when I was there. It is so popular. The parking can be hard to get too during meal times too. So after 1 pm would be best."
"Buddy picked this spot after the gym and it was a great find. He ordered the gyro plate; I got the chicken kabobs and a few dolmas. Team here is quiet but friendly. Both plates were good--he said the rice was good, not great. I subbed the rice for salad which I enjoyed. Also subbed the hummus for tzatziki which I'm happy about. It was so good. Make sure to ask for their garlic sauce--tasty! The chicken was juicy and tender; the gyro meat was less exciting but did not lack in flavor. One ask would be to add a combo plate so you can try different proteins, but it worked out for us since we were able to trade. Dolmas were tasty."
"I love the Kabob Shop. This location is great. I like that they also have kids plates.We have been to several locations and like all of them. We have been to this location the most. The lamb is always very good. They give a large portion and it goes great with the rice and the Mediterranean Salad. This combo is nothing but flavor. The salad is always fresh and the olives used are flavorful!They have the yogurt and the condiment bar and you can take as much as you want without paying extra.The restaurant is clean. We are always greeted by nice people and get good service.This place is fast, easy, and reasonably priced. It is one of my favorite places to go for a flavorful and more healthy eating option.The Kabab Shop..another reason the OC is the best place to live!!!"
"If you are an expat specifically and specially from Gulf region do not miss to visit this place. I have been living in LA since 2016 and the only place I know where I can go sit and relax and can enjoy fresh food like chicken kabab, shawarma, Kunafah and most importantly awesome Karak (milk) tea so this is the place. And I am sure For Hookah lovers too because I don't drink hookah. This place has its own special vibe. Excellent customer service.If you want to celebrate cute and inexpensive surprise birthday party please just let the manager know and you can order a slice of cake (or you can bring ) he will arrange a cake with candle and a patent birthday song. I wish I can give this place 10 stars"

Very nice place, the food is delicious, everybody is very nice, the service is quick and the food is really tasty. I really liked the souses they have, the jalapeño one has just the right amount of spice and complements the meat very well. The truffle brown rice is moist and tasty. I like the ambiance and the whole interior design. Very clean.

A small hidden gem in Anaheim was definitely delicious! We got some different baklava's and they were extremely flavorful and cut into small bite-size pieces. I loved the donut holes with honey. A must spot for a sweet tooth craving! This bakery had seating and they offer cakes and drinks as well. It is a small little café, very intimate. I can't wait to go back and try out more.

Wow. I was truly blown away by my experience and am so very glad I have the memories I've created here. Even though we arrived at pretty late hours of the night, it was decently packed. There was still much parking available and we were seated immediately. The hospitality here was amazing, as expected. The server was very attentive and kind to us. I also had a guest with me who was very particular about knafeh and he said the knafeh here is really good! The live musical performance was absolutely spectacular. It was so calming, alluring, and impressive all at once. I would say it was definitely the highlight of my experience. I will definitely be returning again in the future, and bringing more loved ones with me!

My mother and I had lunch at this restaurant, following a suggestion from my cousin. We are both thrilled with our decision to visit Panini Kabob Gril. The food is outstanding, prepared with the freshest, highest-quality ingredients. The ambiance is happy, featuring a cozy dining area and an outdoor patio, where guests can opt to dine indoors or alfresco. Soraya, our server, demonstrated exceptional service, taking extra steps to accommodate my drink preferences. As someone who is particularly meticulous about the beverages I enjoy with my meals, I am deeply grateful for her dedication to ensuring that I had a satisfying dining experience.

wow Shawarma!!! If any one really understands what does Taste means , then definitely I recommend you to try Sahara Falafel . Must try it. It's really mouth watering food. They choose shawarma ingredients for the best flavor and of course for stomach healthy food. Many people make shawarmas but taste is not in everyone's hand. So go to Sahara Falafel then you will FEEL what I wrote about shawarma here for you . Bcoz I am taste lover and I know what taste means . Not by words but practically by taste of food. Owner is very nice humble person and whatever you want from him , he will make accordingly for your taste. TRY

Small, hole-in-the wall specialty bakery, tucked in a run-down small strip mall, that makes delicious Armenian baked goods, full meals and other specialty items, all hand made, all from scratch, all done the old-fashioned way. Been doing the same thing for 38 years at this writing. Accepts credit cards, but charges the transaction fee. This is not a bargain-basement operation, but a premium bakery, if you want the real stuff done the right way. Jack, himself, is usually at the counter to answer your questions personally. Note of convenience: If you want the lahmajoon, you have to get there well before the place closes because he usually sells out before closing time. Best to call ahead and see what the availability is before you make the drive. Jack will answer the phone usually.

14$ for a chicken bowl with fries for my daughter, everything is dry and salty but the customer service is friendly and I think this will taste better wrapped in the pita bread with a lot of lettuce but I ordered a la carte for my daughter... worth trying again . I'd say the best healthy food choice in the mall for Keto diet.

Very friendly service, quick as well. The lady that helped explained the menu and made suggestions on what to get! I got the chicken with lemon potatoes cilantro sauce and hummus with pita bread, so delicious! A little far from home but I have my docs appointment over here so when I come down I'll make a stop here !

"The ingredients here are so fresh, and the chicken was grilled beautifully. I got a bowl with half greens, half white rice, paprika chicken, an assortment of veggies, three dips, and topped it off with sumac and roasted chickpeas. I'm sorry the picture isn't super aesthetic, as I started eating before I took the picture. The roasted chickpeas were so delicious - crunchy and somehow slightly chewy at the same time. It feels like cava but more authentic when it comes to the ingredients and spices. The lady serving us was very kind and helpful as well. There's three tables inside the restaurant, so not too much seating just fyi. I'll be coming back again soon!"
"Randomly ran into fellow yelper B. N. and his wife who live nearby and they informed me that the address that used to have Kerostena has a new place, Taboon Mediterranean. Apparently Taboon has another location in Long Beach and Los Alamitos. The menu is large with soup, salads, cold appetizers, hot appetizers, wraps, bowls, plates, and dessert. Last Wednesday I had the day off work so figured it was a great time to try it out. They've only been open a few weeks. The employee was extremely friendly and happy to talk about the menu. He let me know they have lunch specials Monday-Friday which pretty much gets you the drink for free. I ordered the "halloumi cheese" wrap with lentil soup. I've never had this cheese before and loved it. It's very dense and doesn't melt. They grill it and wrap it with lettuce, tomato, garlic, and a flavorful sauce. The cheese is semi salty and because of the dense texture it was like eating a chicken wrap. I loved every bite and couldn't believe how good it was. I ordered one to take home for my wife and she loved it. At the end she said "I think they forgot the cheese though, it was just some delicious chicken". Her mind was blown when she found out the entire thing was cheese. The vegan lentil soup was a huge portion and loaded with flavor. It was served with some pita chips which I tossed in for texture. My wife had the fries for her side and it was a HUGE portion. She could only eat half and saved the rest for the next day. Salad was another choice for lunch special.Saturday my wife and I came back to eat there. We both ordered the Kefta kabab plate which is a blend of ground beef and lamb. It's heavy on the lamb flavor so keep that in mind if you don't like lamb. It was served with hummus, house salad, two types of rice, sumac covered red onions, a grilled white onion, grilled tomato, pita bread, garlic sauce, and tahini. HUGE portion. Neither my wife or I could finish which is rare for me. I usually devour everything. Every single thing on our plate was fantastic. Loved the two different types of rice. One was very herbal tasting. Since it was our first time here we ordered way too much food. Besides our gut busting entrees we also shared some of their fried cauliflower and the spinach fatayer which are like empanadas. Both awesome.Please try this place! It's behind Shakey's next door to the bagel place that's currently being repairs from the fire. We need good restaurants around here since so many closed during COVID. This is the perfect place for the plaza and I can't wait to try more items!"
"Excellent service, Delicious food. Super reasonable. Can't ask for anything more. I have lunch here and catering on Thursdays for family events"
"Came in on Friday nite, what a hidden gem! I ordered the chicken and beef plate which was $17.99. It's a bit pricy but kid you not...it's worth the price. The plate is big enough to share with two people. The meats are tender and flavorful. The rice is just cooked right with good taste of salad on the side. My partner ordered the falafel salad which was full of flavor also. Falafel isn't dry and not overly oily or heavy dressing. It came with a basket of pita bread huge portion. We can't wait to go back!"
"Food: 4 starsPrice and Quantity: 5 starsService: 3 starsI totally understand why there is always either a lot of customers waiting to be seated, and what the hype is about. Every time I had passed by, or was in the area, there were always a crowd of people, so I knew I had to put it on my "to try" list - though it took me a few years to visit, until Black Friday (of all days). As I was waiting for my friends to arrive (which I purposefully arrived 15-mins early to see if I could add my name to the "possible" waitlist), the restaurant started to fill up by 12:30 pm (both the interior and the patio seating). We opted to sit outside as the inside was full, and it was a bit more "airy" outside as well.Hummus Trio (A Must) $9.99Combination of Garbanzo, Spicy Red Bell Pepper Hummus (switched out for Tzatziki), and Edamame Hummus.

(TRUE VEGAN) Served with Grilled Artisan Bread.Ordering was fast, and the food came out as expected, with the Hummus Trio arriving first. With the cooler weather, 2 (out of 3) of us also asked for hot water with lemon, which they also never refilled... good thing I had water in my bag as I was getting thirsty. When the entrees were brought out, I was surprised at the portions! Those are not 1-person entrees, they are totally shareable and I was amazed at the affordability of it! (Just the other week, I had Mediterranean down the street - which I will not name the restaurant, the to-go portion was like a child's meal and it cost me in the $20's for an entrée and the quality was not even up there.) I had the Charbroiled Chicken Shish Kabob and the chicken pieces were very tender and I loved the grilled vegetables. The Mediterranean Greek Salad was fresh and very tasty. I do wish the pita bread in the Humus Trio was a bit warmer, but it probably got cold as it was sitting on the table, outside on the patio.Everything tasted delicious (quality) and we all had food (to share) or for dinner. I would most definitely return and try the many other dishes that caught my eye. Great place to meet up with friends and catch up as well. Service is a bit on the younger side, but they are very kind. Due to the smaller storefront, I see why there could be a wait for a table, so expect a wait during busy times. Parking can also be a bit difficult with the amount of storefronts in this plaza."
"We loved our experience at the restaurant. The food was delicious, grilled meat can be a little spicy so if you don't like it spicy just mention that when ordering. The service was great, and my daughter and nieces loved the decor. They have freshly baked bread which we loved. Prices very reasonable and the menu has good offerings. We'll definitely be back and will bring our friends.Also must note the restaurant owner also owns a butchery across the street called Jenin Meat Market!"
"Kebab Grill Restaurant was right across my hotel in Westminster, CA. Just had to walk across cross the street. Menu looks rather large but really it's a few main protein separated into a few choices. I attempted to get at least 10 percent of their entire menu in my belly lol. Decided to get the 3 piece lamb combo. Asked it if I go swap 1 lamb skewer for 1 beef skewer, request was granted with no up charge. Perfect. Go my sides, hummus, pita, and their Turkish Salad. Lamb kabob so tasty and tender. The beef has flavor but wasn't as tender as the lamb. The sides, spot on in the flavor department. On the way out, I decide to ask for 1 meat pie just because it was calling my name lol. Interestingly delicious. I would compare it to empanadas but it wouldn't do itself justice. This meat pie was in a league of its own. Just try it. All in all, the food was worth going back for. The next day I actually returned to try other items on their menu. I do apologize, no pics because my phone was back at the hotel charging. I ended up purchasing the lentils soup and the lamb sandwich. Perfect match. In closing, I highly recommend this establishment. The reviews speak for themselves. Until next time, eat till your heart is content."
"I've always heard about Caspian in Irvine - famous for the belly dancers but never went to that establishment. Sadly, that one is gone but in its place is this restaurant now in Lake Forest/Foothill Ranch. On Wednesdays to Friday, they have a lunch buffet. At $23.99 a person, it may seem steep, but man it's worth it! I will say that we make the mistake of lining up in the front just to realize people were queueing to pay instead of just going towards the actual restaurant part to be seated... That was stupid of us lol so if that happens, ignore the line for paying! Anyways, onwards to the food! There's bread (I didn't think it was that great), salad with a tasty house dressing sauce, yogurt sauce, hummus, rice, fries and various types of kebobs. There was a chicken one, a chicken tender type, ground beef, and the shrimps. Everything was fresh and kept coming out so the buffet was never empty.The restaurant was clean and decorated well. The lunch buffet is honestly such a good deal and left me very satisfied. My favorites were the shrimp kabobs as they were grilled to perfection and seasoned well. But I don't think you could go wrong with anything here!"
"*****Amazing Arabic Style Coffee!*****A very lovely cafe with a fresh open vibe. They have the best coffee i have had in a long time. High quality, fragrant, flavorful.They have dessert style coffee which my daughter had (white chocolate latte). She loved it. I had the Sena Coffee with Ginger, Cinnamon, cardamom,...wow! What an amazing drink. It's hot and refreshing at the same time. This is an amazing drink!Parking is easy. Customer Service is greatI would love to hav e coffee here again!"
"Easily added to my favorite take out places in OC! I got the beef/chicken plate which comes with rice, devine hummus, salad, pita bread, and dipping sauces for about $15 or so. I am actually IN LOVE with their hummus! It tastes so fresh and homemade, I would definitely eat a whole bucket of that. I prefer the chicken over the beef but both were so juicy and flavorful. The meat can be seen rotating in the heater thingymabob in the back so it's for sure FRESH! Service is quick and friendly. Oh and need I say that the plate portions are pretty big! My bf got the chicken/beef shawarma wrap which was about $10 or so? I forget! But the portion is decently sized and you totally need to get fries with this! The wrap is very tightly wrapped in an organized manner making it easy and clean to eat for those that don't like to eat messy or for first date purposes LOL. Plenty of parking in this small lot"
"Cleaning eating fresh food and healthy food! You might think this is just another place to get chicken, but the flavor and the cook is so consistently good. We had this three nights in a row when we were visiting. We are on a clean diet right now so we had the half chicken, steamed vegetables and a baked potato. We felt the portions were very good for the size and really enjoyed our meals. Even if you're not on a diet, this is as good as chicken gets!"
"Today was my first time trying The Kebab Shop. Service was excellent, very nice guy looked to be working alone, but not busy. The menu was pretty easy to navigate, ordered the wrap & bowl. The wrap was big, loaded with lots of vegetables or salad inside but very few falafel's for the size of the wrap. I also ate it like it was served & presented, I didn't add extra sauces. Taste was kind of dry. The bowl was beautifully presented & nicely portioned. The chicken was very dry and the rice had no taste. Once again I ate it the way it was presented, I didn't add any sauce. The meat looked as if it was pre cooked and not fresh maybe held in warmer too long.Ambiance & service 5 starsVegetables 5 starsPortions 5 starsMeat 2 starsFalafel 2 starsRice 1star"
"If I could give this place 6 stars, I would. My absolute favorite Arab bakery in the OC! They have the best baked goods, pastries, and flatbreads that give you a taste of the Middle East and teleport you as if you were "back home."Our go-to's are the manaeesh with zaatar, egg/cheese, and lahme (minced meat). They come with a side of pickles and olives for the perfect touch. And you can't forget the tea with fresh mint leaves to wash it all down. The owner is extremely friendly and knows his regular's very well. It's usually busy, but time's I have gone we are eating within 15 minutes of ordering. The walls are painted with pictures encompassing the Middle Eastern culture and people, and truly make you feel you are in another world. It is a mainstay for Arabs all throughout OC, and a must try if ever in Anaheim's "little Arabia" on Brookhurst St."
"I really like Mediterranean food but, this visit was a little disappointing. Earlier this year, I raved about Panini Kabob Grill in downtown Los Angeles. So I thought this Cerritos location should be very good too.On a weekend afternoon, the parking in the plaza where this restaurant shares w/several other businesses is super busy! Cars eagerly await other cars to exit. The front of the house welcomed us but, chose to seat us right next to another family only separated by the glass wall. We opted to move to another table and there were plenty of other tables available.The starter pita bread and hummus was tasty and the hubby got their namesake panini. He liked what he got. I liked my salad and falafel wrap. Just wasn't wowed by anything we ordered. The DTLA location is definitely superior to this one.Just OK at 3 stars and probably would not return to this one."
"Just as good as their Santa Ana location- generous portions. Love their Gyros, roasted potatoes and Greek salad. Kids like their chicken strips and fries. Service is friendly and quick. So glad this place is in the neighborhood. Stop by and patronize the great Greek in Irvine location."
"Quick service. Huge parking lot. Not a ton of seating inside but not bad for a fast casual restaurant. Ordered the spicy gyro wrap and love how they toast it! Also really liked the spicy cilantro hummus. Definitely worth a look if looking for a quick Mediterranean bite"
"This is a Jordanian Mexican fusion spot that incorporates flour tortillas with their meals. They have a delicious Boom Boom sauce, and the Shawarma meats are so good! I like to get the sauce on the side, but a lot of the dishes include it inside the wraps. They open at noon daily, and it can get busy, so I like to be the first in line to avoid a wait. They have some crazy and super filling drinks! Best to show up starving!"
"One of my favorite spots in the area. Great friendly service - Giovanni! Love his recommendations. Great sized portions. Plenty of proteins, sides, and topping options. Freshly made so it does take about 10 min. Everything is fresh and made to order. Clean and casual. Plenty of parking, easy to find, and yogurtland is next door for dessert! (I ordered the chicken and steak kabob to go)"
"This is my favorite Mediterranean restaurant. They have so many perfectly flavorful menu items. Even the brown rice is really good. The portions are big too. You definitely get your monies worth here. There's a good amount of locations in Orange County, LA, and two in Riverside. The Flat Iron Shish Kabob plate is my dish. It's so good, and cooked how you like it. All of the plates come with your choice of rice and salad. The Romaine Avocado Salad is the one I always get. It has a semi-light & citrusy dressing, with diced cucumber and tomatoes. Flat Iron steak is actually not offered everywhere, and it's one of my favorite cuts, so I have to order it every time I see it on a menu. So glad it'll always be here."
"Boyfriend and I have seen this restaurant many times, but they always close so early. And because of that, we've never been able to try it - until this past weekend. We decided to order ahead of time and walk over to pick it up since we live fairly close by. The restaurant itself was surprisingly super clean. We did arrive a bit early so our food wasn't ready, but that wasn't their fault. The guy that was working finished up with the walk in customer who was already there and quickly went to prepare our food. Before handing our order to us, he even read back our entire order as he was packaging it - great, friendly customer service. When we got home, the food portions were plentiful and we were ready to dig in. Boyfriend ordered the Chicken and Beef Steak Kabob entree and I got a wrap with Lemon Artichoke Hummus, Spring Mix, Pesto Chicken Shawarma, Sumac Onions, Tabbouleh, Pickled Beets, Cucumbers, Lemon and Olive Oil, and White Garlic Sauce. We also ordered a side of their Pita Bread with 3 hummus's (Feta, Traditional and another one that had some spice). And omg, everything was bursting with flavor and we were so happy haha. Because how can you not be when you're eating yummy food? We will most definitely be coming back here to try more items on their menu. Very happy we found this gem so close to home."
"With pretty good reviews I had really wanted to try this place. Pretty disappointed. Garlic sauce was good. Besides that . Chicken was dry like leather. How can u serve this? Probably old chicken."
"I was in Costa Mesa for a work trip and always love searching for local favorites when I travel. A local coworker and a Persian friend both recommended this restaurant to me. As soon as I walked in I felt like I had been transported to a world of luxury.The service was great. The food wonderful. Our server was a great guide through the menu. The decor is refined and includes white tablecloths and sharply dressed servers. Chandeliers, crystal and flowers on the tables.I ordered a glass of Shiraz, the Lamb Kebobs with rice and salad. The food was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. I am a slow drinker, so the server came over to ask me if I was enjoying the wine and if not, he'd happily exchange it for me. That really impressed me!"
"LovedLovedLoved. The guys at the front were all great service wise!They totally got me on the mint lemonade drink, ask for a sample if they don't already offer you one because damn that was delicious!!!We got the chicken shawarma wrap to share, It's big. and some baklava on the side with fries and mint lemonade. The chicken on the shawarma was a little on the dry side BUT when you get it in a wrap with all the fixings it was a perfect balance to the creamy and crunchy veggies inside that it added a different layer of texture that I absolutely enjoyed!The fries were standard and delicious with ketchup. Now. THE BAKLAVA. OMG. As someone who has had the good homemade stuff the one they sell here is AMAZING. It was so crispy yet sweet and nutty and had a perfect balance, where it wasn't too oily or too much of one ingredient. The crisp was crispy and the honey on it was so perfectly sweet. I plan to get a tray of these for my birthday this year! I will update y'all on that later when I do :)The meal was a bit pricy $35 for everything but not one bite went to waste. So to me that was worth it."
