    The best Middle Eastern food in Los Angeles, and it's not even close. It's not cheap, but it's worth every penny. Service was excellent too. If you can get in, race to get there.

    One of the best dining experiences I've ever had. All of the food, from appetizers to dessert, was perfectly prepared and delicious. The atmosphere is amazing, like stepping back in time. The service was impeccable as well. I couldn't ask for a better evening. My only regret is I live 400 miles away and can only visit when in town. I can't wait to return.
