The food was great Didn't bother to take photos (we just don't have this instagram habit so yeah).Ordered 2 2-person set dinners for 4 people, that's 4 starters, 4 mains and 4 drinks/soups. We had hummus with bread, tabboulah, stuffed vine leaves and falafels, some chicken, beef and lamb mains, lentil soups, apricot juice and Arabic coffee.Basically everything's great, I especially like the stuffed vine leaves, tastes refreshing with its sourness and it's so soft. The tabboulah is nice too but
Ordered 2 2-person set dinners for 4 people, that's 4 starters, 4 mains and 4 drinks/soups. We had hummus with bread, tabboulah, stuffed vine leaves and falafels, some chicken, beef and lamb mains, lentil soups, apricot juice and Arabic coffee.
Basically everything's great, I especially like the stuffed vine leaves, tastes refreshing with its sourness and it's so soft. The tabboulah is nice too but it doesn't go as easy on my tongue in terms of texture as those I had in other places, still made me pretty happy though. I feel the lamb could be more lamby but I guess it's not for everyone. Chicken was great with its flavorful sauce (it's garlic-mayo-ish but has more spices and tastes more expensive), beef too (together with its onion) - not strikingly remarkable but pretty damn tender and delicious. Not a fan of cardamom but the slight dash of it in the coffee is not bad at all.
The portion was nice, we all got so full and me and my bro have above-average appetites.
Not hard to find using Google Maps. There is a short flight of stairs to go up before you take the elevator, totally fine by me, hope it's fine for you too.
Decoration was pretty The ceiling was covered with tapestry, like some other Middle-Eastern restaurants I've been to, tables are covered with cloths with pretty patterns too, and topped with a piece of glass. The lighting was warm and dim, just makes it feel cozy. A small place comfy to be in with no a/c, jut the windows open (it was about 20 degrees celsius?) Nice view looking down to a sports ground from the 11th floor which gives some space between your eyes and all the other buildings.
One small thing, I was so tired and careless that I didn't realize the two tables are not of the same height and tipped over the last bit of apricot juice by placing the glass at the edge of the table. Don't make the same mistake I did LOL
