Outstanding authentic Mediterranean food. I had the Lamb Kebab and it was superb. It does come with a lot of side dishes which I didn't know so I ordered a salad as well which was also excellent. The atmosphere is very relaxed. I'll definitely be back. I think they have the best zhug I had since my exposure to middle eastern cuisine. Kebab is juicy and flavorful. Turkish coffee is strong. Pita is fluffy and warm but expensive if you want more, it costs NIS5! But overall the price seems reasonable. Slightly pricier (big hummus was less quantity) than opposite (Kaspi) but still enjoyable experience with quality fresh food and services. It was packed when we arrived for dinner (slight wait when we finished dining). Mixed grilled has a lot of internal organs (not recommended for those don't like them). The hot iron tray levantine is very flavourful and good portion, suits the pita very well

Easily one of the best restaurants in Tel Aviv. Came here 4 times during our trip. Everything from the salads, appetizers, and skewers is to die for. Also, the chocolate cake is one of the best I’ve ever had. You are making a big mistake if you don’t come and eat here !!!
