    We made a online reservation. Upon arrival, we were seated immediately although there was people waiting as walk-ins. Our server treated us promptly for our drink orders. He was kind and friendly answering all of our questions regarding the changes on the menu. I normally get the brick chicken, but it wasn’t available anymore so I decided to go with the lamb chops. Food was flavorful and delicious. I don’t recall the server name, but our receipt says Bereket. He deserve 5 stars.
