Not worth it!

by Mamta Nanavati at Citysearch

I went to this place last night and the owner behaved as if he was mad that I arrived at his door. He was exceptionally rude and dint answer any questions properly.

He said it was time to clse the kitchens and so I should order all that I wanted to right away, and so i asked him if I had to order deserts too and he said no deserts were fine and I could order the deserts after finishing my entrees.

But once I was done with my entrees , he came to my table with the check and I hadnt even asked for it yet. So, i asked him if I could still have the dessert and he screwed his face and said that all i could get was Baklawa.

Dont ever go to this place if you wanted to be treated well.

The entrees on the whole were ok

Great lunch spot in Downtown Mountain View!

Accompanied by my husband, we went at lunchtime and the place was already getting pretty full. We were seated immediately and a busboy proceeded to bring us water and pita bread with this delicious tomato based dipping sauce. Not even three minutes later our server came and informed us of the specials. We opted for the hummus as an appetizer, and we both ordered the Doner Wrap which consisted of lamb, beef, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers and a delicious yogurt-garlic sauce amidst it all. It was served wrapped in a very warm pita type bread and accompanied by either fries or salad. My husband got the fries which were wonderful--not too greasy or salty--just right. I got the salad which was basically just some arrugula and spinach leaves drizzled with vinaigrette. Not too impressive, but enough to fill you up with some greens!

I also thought the price was fairly reasonable for the quality of the food. We spent $25.00 out the door which included 1 appetizer and the two wraps. I feel that they should offer some type of lunch menu. The menu we received appeared to be their general menu for both lunch and dinner which of course, reflect dinner prices!

All in all, there was plenty of food, and accomodating and efficient service from everyone. We would definitely return seeing that the experience was very positive!

• Pros: Great service, very efficient for a lunch hour! Food was excellent quality--all very fresh!
• Cons: Don't have a lunch menu, so you pay dinner prices at the lunch hour--yuck =(
