Abraham AlamJuly 17, 2017Everything from the moment I entered was superb: service, quality, and experience. I was treated to a free app and Adana Kabep was great. Free WiFi and music was also nice. Will be coming here again!
Sajad NozariJuly 14, 2017Lovely place very near to Blue Mosque. Very polite and helpfull middle-aged waiter you can ask anything from. Definitely "Ali Nazik" food worth to try. Go and try ..
