It looks like a family run restaurant with many tables outside and a few inside. Great music playing from the tv with belly dancing. Nice ambiance. Service excellent, the food came fast, we were a party of 3 and had appetizers (sort of spring rolls with vegetables - delicious, and cheese filling - ok, the cheese could have been more melted) and tajine chicken and lamb. Both were scrumptious. Very hot! Be careful you don’t burn your tongue. We had a nice wine from Lebanon. Arab tea with pastries followed, interesting minty taste and lots of sugar in the tea. The meal ended with complimentary mini-shots. Overall 5 stars for the food and service and atmosphere ( the only down side was the motion light in the toilet which switched off every 10 seconds ;)
