Excellent
This place is a gem. It has a clean modern and fresh decor with a covered outside patio. The food here is excellent. I have tried several items on the menu and I have enjoyed every one. I used to come here strictly for the Gyro sandwiches, but now I've tried almost everything. My favorite is an eggplant dish called moussaka. I've recently had family in from out of town and they travel to the Middle East and Turkey several times a year and they said the moussaka was excellent. The hummus is excellent, best I've had. One surprise is the pizza, I'm from New Jersey so I am very picky about my pizza. The pizza here is superb. Another item that many overlook is the cocktails that Wael serves. I would rank them as good as if not better than any craft cocktail joint in all of Houston. They also has a Lebanese beer which has become my favorite. The baklava is as good as any I've had. During lunch on weekdays he has a serving line where you can pick and choose from a number of menu items, it is not a self service buffet so the quality of the food is much better than you'll find on any self service buffet. I try to come for lunch when I can, and the price is unbelievably reasonable. The service is also outstanding. Kelsey works mostly days. Very attentive and handles a busy lunch crowd with aplomb. Virginia works mostly nights and has always treated me like I'm more than just a person eating a meal, a very welcome difference than most other places. Then there is Aiden. I guess I would call him a floater, helping the waitresses. But also waits table at times. He waited on my family last week when they flew into town and I must say I was impressed with his service. He's quiet but very confident and gave us excellent service. Try this place. It is definitely worth the time.
