    This was my second visit to Aba in the week because we were visiting and the food was so fresh and good the first time. All the staff were once again great and the food came out very quick for brunch. Would recommend if you like fresh pita and great dips.

    Staff, food, ambiance… everything was perfect. We were lucky enough to get 2 seats at the counter overlooking the kitchen. The ballet was spectacular with all those chefs working together. We had an early reservation and when we left, we could see that it was a trendy place as lot of young preppy looking were coming in. I highly recommend 🥰
