One of the best restaurants I’ve tried in Berlin! Great taste and beautiful calm atmosphere. Love their decor.
We ordered sujuk dish and a cranberry meat dish as well as fattouch salad and everything was so tasty. It was my first time trying the meat in cranberry sauce, and I loved everything about it. Not too sweet, just the right amount of sweetness and tartness! It was delicious!

Absolutely delicious food with friendly service. The mezze are delicious.

We got the moussaka which was fresh and light and packed with flavour. The vegan shawarma didn't taste like shawarma since the mushroom was quite strong but delicious nonetheless. And to end it on dessert, their knefe is fresh and tasty without being too sweet.

The real stars though were the double fried potatoes which were stuffed with a coriander chilli flavour, and the lamb chops which were chonky Bois and incredibly juicy.

Definitely a place to check out in the area.

A really nice discovery. Great restaurant, we probably had one of the best hummus ever. Great selection of wine and in general all the courses we choose were unbelievably good and prepared with love. Staff is nice and kind too.

Very tasty food. Hummus and baba ghannouj were quite nice. Chicken and lamb were very tasty! also the 2g+ was very well controlled. Minus one star is only cause the portions are quite small for those prices.
The “limon nana minte” is yummy!

Tasty but not worth the price (60€ for these 3 dishes -the lower one is composed of pita bread with 4 pieces of aubergines and a couple of cashew nuts for 15€!! - plus a small water and a small lemonade). service could be less chaotic too.

I am usually not hard on ratings, but unfortunately the experience did not live up to my expectations of the restaurant. The service in general was great and I like the atmosphere of the place, however, there were small details that made the rating 3 star.

We were two and was reserved a table among all the big ones with lots of kids around. I am generally happy with kids in restaurants but I feel like the setup could have been a lot more sensible. The wine menu is quite limited and I had a feeling that the waiter was not so comfortable when I asked for a recommendation, which is strange to me for a restaurant of this price range. The food came in large quantity, but unfortunately was just average to my taste. I have to be honest I have had similar or better food of the same type with a fraction of the price. I feel like the restaurant has focused more on the branding and displays but not the food quality.

We paid €70 for 2 including 1 salad, 1 vegan shawarma, 1 main dish, 2 drinks and a bottle of water. That’s quite expensive compared to what we got in terms of the whole experience.

Unfortunately I don’t think I will come back.
