It's kind of hard trying to find a spot open on Sunday downtown. This is the first time I've been to THIS Spot 🔴. I chose to order a bowl and he asked if I wanted 🦐 shrimp or salmon, I said add it on BOTH plz ✅. Fresh off the Grill, Excellent Choice 😁.

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.

Worst dining experience ever! We visited on Labor Day, drawn in by the good reviews. Big mistake. The moment we walked in, we were hit with an unpleasant smell and the atmosphere was unwelcoming, with two loud fans blasting. The staff seemed put off, like they were doing us a favor by taking our money. The final straw was the food - burnt black fried chicken that looked and tasted spoiled. The fries were soaked in oil. We spent $40 and couldn't eat it. Needless to say, this was our first and last visit. Still wondering how they racked up those good reviews... Never again. This food is not for human or animal consumption. Total garbage.

This was my first and definitely last time ordering from here. I chose this place because of the good reviews and because I was craving shawarma, but the experience was extremely disappointing. When I arrived for pickup, the restaurant was empty, didn’t look very clean, and had an unpleasant smell. That alone should have been a red flag. I ordered a shawarma, chicken quesadilla, chicken tenders, and fries. The total was about $50, which is outrageous for what you actually get. The portions were very small and not worth the price at all. The food was almost completely flavorless. The chicken tasted old and dry. The shawarma was the worst I’ve ever had—literally just chicken and fries wrapped together, with no sauce, no salad, and no toppings whatsoever. The chicken tenders order came with only two small pieces, both dry. The quesadilla had no flavor either and came in a soft, soggy tortilla. Overall, this was a terrible experience, especially for the price. I gave it a shot, but I won’t be returning and wouldn’t recommend it unless serious improvements are made.
