I've reviewed restaurants around the world, and this one surprised me. The warm bread with garlic spread was mouth-watering! AND THEY BROUGHT MORE! The small hummus we ordered on the side was not small at all and some of the best hummus I've had. Rivals what I had in the Middle East. Finally, the feast for two was wonderful and more than we could eat. To my surprise, we were given take-home containers that held enough food for another meal. When we got into the car all I could do was to turn to my wife with a big smile and say, WOW! Do yourself a favor and enjoy a meal here. You deserve it, and they deserve the support.

Dined in for lunch and was absolutely amazed by the impeccable service, fresh and delicious food, and spotless cleanliness of the restaurant. Lynee C. was our server today—friendly, professional, and truly one of the best I’ve ever had! I even ordered takeout to bring home, and the food was just as fresh, hot, and beautifully presented as it was dining in. An all-around exceptional experience—highly recommend!

I absolutely loved the Saji Diced Chicken Salad. Add a side of garlic and hummus. You won’t be disappointed. TikTokers yall need to get on this salad. My Server made me feel like I was her only customer. I’m in need of good staff as a manager, I’d snatch her up in a heart beat. Rachel the manager came over and made sure everything was ok as well. What excellent customer service. My only recommendation is that you switch to Coke products. Coke Zero is the wave Now back to the salad. It’s a must.

My sister and I came to this restaurant yesterday with our family for her 21rst birthday. We came an hour before they closed and we were still there after they were already closed. They were professional, kind and extremely welcoming . The food was exceptional. They make everything fresh along with the bread . We had NOTHING that tasted old or left over!!! Our salad was even fresh !!! Not to mention our food came out steaming hot !!! Loved everything about this restaurant . Including how hot the food came out. 10/10 highly recommend .
