All Kebab choices are prepared nicely and taste good.I wouldn't recommend the Döner,so do NOT order the ABA Combo,it includes Döner and costs twice as much. Ask for Turkish Tea afterwards, No alcohol

The chicken shish kebab was so moist and delish. Hummus is the best in the city that I've found. Best rice also and fantastic service. Will def return, especially for the affordable prices

Iskender kabab is the best and the portion is huge so you'll definitely have leftovers.
