One of the best Arab restaurants in Minnesota! We drive 45 minutes just to eat here for the 1st week of Ramadan, and it’s always worth it. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We truly enjoy coming back every time. We even opened our fast here this week, and the food and presentation were phenomenal. Everything was beautifully arranged and tasted amazing, which made the experience even more special. The only downside was noticing quite a bit of food spilled around the buffet table by other customers. It’s such a beautiful setup, so it was a little disappointing to see that happened especially during Ramadan month. Overall, we highly recommend this place and look forward to coming back again!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Had dinner here with my husband & son, everything was amazing! Food was hot & everything was freshly made, nothing was off or stale, big thumbs up! Staff was amazing & very helpful, my sons platter had toasted almonds on top (traditional), we didn’t realize it comes that way, he’s allergic to nuts, the staff immediately made him a new platter in no time! Great dinner experience, highly recommend!

Showed up with a group of 7 around dinner time. The service was perfect off the rip, Rumzi took good care of us. It was our first time and he helped us navigate the menu. We got the Large patter for 6 to 8 and it was plentiful. Generous portions with high quality and presentation. I highly recommend. Everything was fresh and made to order.
