Amanda TuAugust 11, 2013Shawarma sandwich was gross, it was greasy & chicken was dry! Overall a chill place to hookah, plus it's BYOB. Heard midtown location is better.UpvoteDownvote

Lloyd MMarch 11, 2012They use cheap quick light coals which effects the flavor...not a fan. Real coal is betterUpvoteDownvote
Jaz-meanMarch 16, 2011The service is horrible, they take forever to seat then to come around and take your order as well deliver it. The waitters are not friendly at all.UpvoteDownvote

"The tents are awesome. Hookahs are good, and the occasional live music is nice."

"The hummus and baba ghanoush are quite good. The bean salad is great, especially with the red hot sauce. Fried fish and gyro meat are the best meats. Great choices for vegetarians & meat eaters alike."
