Stopped in for Dinner and Hookah. Hookah was perfectly done! Lamb Chops and wings were excellent! Great place to grab a quick dinner. Only downside was the random cats, for me personally.
Absolutely love this place. The food is fresh and flavorful, and the vibe is always welcoming and relaxing. Highly recommend
Habibi! This is the place to be. The hookah the staff the food the drinks the environment everything about this place is amazing. Good prices too. Definitely highly recommend to go here. Yalla!
I came here with my family and we had such an amazing experience. The café is decorated so beautifully, it has such a warm, cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay for hours. The hookah and tea were both incredible, some of the best we’ve had. The owner was extremely kind and welcoming, and the hospitality overall was truly top-tier. We’ll definitely be coming back!
So I have ordered half chicken, it was grill chicken but it was more like burnt chicken, no flavour no taste and service was to slow they gave us food after 30 min and it was not busy at all, nobody can speak English there, it was very difficult to communicate and we were 3 people so we asked server that can we sit on sofa, they denied and the reason was that sofa area is booked with 7-8 people but 3 people of walk in came and they satt. There was an old guy server he was ok for us to sit but other was rude. Overall, it was my first visit and last too.
