Visiting this long-standing Middle Eastern restaurant in Itaewon felt like a true culinary escape. I started with their homemade hummus and baba ghanoush, scooping them up with endless pieces of soft, warm pita bread. The white garlic sauce they serve on the side paired flawlessly with everything on the table! For the mains, the lamb kebab was delightfully smoky and tender, and the lamb leg with couscous came in a generously portioned, mild tomato-based sauce. Be aware that the chicken dishes contain some unique spices that might not suit everyone. The owner is incredibly friendly and handles orders perfectly in English. Remember that they do not serve any alcohol.
