4.8 / 5.0(1,114 reviews)
What a good restaurant. Very warm atmosphere and delicious food. I tried fajitas and chicken Napolitana BBQ mashed potato. I recommended it. Also thanks to Mr.Mokhbat for he’s hospitality and good service The best humita empanadas! I felt like I was back in Argentina eating them. Same flavor, excellent! The chicken empanadas and the sweetbreads were okay. The chimichurri delicious! I would return for the humita empanadas and to try the beef empanadas, I hope they’re not sold out next time! And very good service from Toukir, the guy from Bangladesh. Very cordial, kind and attentive. The best sourdough for complimentary, softest as tastiest chicken fajita we’ve had in awhile. Service of the staff is amazing as well. Shoutout to Mohkbaht for our amazing experience during Qatar boat show. Bonus part is the fireworks as our background.
