    Second time around! Really enjoy Indian, Mediterranean, Greek, Italian, and Turkish. Food/Drink: Entrees were amazing, everything tasted fantastic. The flavors and the smells were intoxicating! I had the lunch buffet. Bread and Apps: The garlic naan mmmm mmmm! Small dish of the samosas were to die for. Dinning Area: Pretty Small, and cramped. A little drafty. Prices: Relatively cheap. Wveryhing included for 14.99 plus a drink. Parking: street parking stinks. Bathrooms: Bathrooms were clean and smaller in size. Atmosphere: During the weekday Dinner rush, pretty busy, but not unmanageable. I did not wait long. Staff/Attendants: Staff overall was Great, family owned and operated I presume. Extremely authentic, deep accent. Awesome experience I will be back! 7/10

    WHEN: Thursday @ 6pm Fairly busy evening with 25% tagine dishes on Thursdays. We were able to grab a table for 3 upstairs right beneath the AC. The restaurant gets very hot from the hot tagine dishes and the 85 degrees weather outside. WHAT WE ORDERED Fish & mixed veggies tagine Chicken & potatoes tagine Chicken vermicelli tagine Baklava Every dish was very flavorful, full of spices and blends. It was my first time trying out a Moroccan dish, everything was so interesting. From the mint tea that the server pours in the beginning of the meal to the pita bread that can be dipped into the tagine to eat. The tagine portion was fairly large, I had a good amount of leftovers to consume the next day. The baklava dessert was delicious, it was a large slice so I shared it w 2 other ppl.
