I've been ordering food from here, and I can confidently say that I'm absolutely enamoured with this place. After a long search for decent Lebanese food in Edinburgh, I finally found it. This restaurant ticks all the boxes. Their Sabanikh is outstanding—I've never tasted anything quite like it.

It's a lovely dinner I had at a Kurdish restaurant. We were served by a Bengali person with Arabic music and Turkish food, and Kurdish tea. Edinburgh Scotland north England

Splendid meal! Best food we’ve had in two weeks of travel! Kind and helpful staff, most tender lamb shawarma, pockets of tasty veggies and fresh cucumber salad with amazing sauces! Baklava and mint tea so nice! Highly recommend you make the stop! Enjoy!

Our second time in the last month. I was looking forward to coming back again. This restaurant was very memorable: a very friendly, smiley waitress greeted us and recommended to try the rice which I thought later was to die for. The chicken shish dish with the tasty rice had so much flavor, so nicely cooked that I was taken by a surprise. It is very hard to find a dish that meets your expectations. This time I ordered extra Okra as a side dish and a bottle of Lebanese wine. We had a lot of fun drinking it while waiting for the tasty meal to be prepared. There is a lot more to try and I am looking forward to my next visit. Thank you very much for trying so hard. I really appreciate it your effort.

We had Kurdish dinner for the very first time and it was really worth it. I had Lamb Shish BBQ and my girlfriend had Chicken Shawarma. It was so good. You could taste all the different Kurdish herbs and flavors. This is really high quality food. We can really recommend this secret restaurant.
