My husband and I have driven here twice now as we make a stop at the Biden Welcome Center to charge our electric car as we drive from DC to NY. It's about 5 min away and well worth the slight detour. The food is fantastic and a freshly prepared in the kitchen and yes some other things best middle eastern food I've had. We've had the lamb gyro, chicken schwarma sandwich a d last time we stopped there we each got kebab platters which were huge. Greatest value for the money too!

This place is by far the best middle eastern restaurant on the East coast. Just the right amount of spicy, great flavors, and overall very delicious. The prices are not bad at all, and portions are fair. We order kibbeh, arayes, and samosa (mixed) all melt in mouth, you can taste the flavors of the spices with a hint of hot. The eggplant stew is to die for. Their dessert (basbousa) is the best I've ever had, tbh I've never tasted anything with just the right amount of everything. It wasn't saggy, it wasn't too sweet. Try their Moroccan tea it's a different kind of green tea. Over all I'm glad we stopped here, and definitely will come back on our way to Philly / DC.

Food is great but the service needs major improvement. The old man at the front desk doesn't know what he's doing. The kids from the kitchen had to come and help to get me some food! I didn't even get what I ordered but I need food for lunch quickly. In less than 5 minutes my plate came. Altogether, the food is great but the service is not good.

I had the grape leaves platter - baba ganoush, hummus, a salad and grape leaves? Yes please. Everything was good, but not mind-blowing (which isn't a fair bar for anyone). The fresh mango juice hit the spot! I love that there's a shop attached to the restaurant. Many of the patrons seemed to know the server and be regulars, and the shop is handy for picking up staples like cous cous (SO many options) and some necessary but hard-to-get (in my neck of the woods) items like grape leaves for when you want to make your own

Asked Yelp for help to find a middle eastern eatery while driving on I 95. Despite being off the highway with a strong desire of a fellow passenger we decided to go here. In a shopping center. Looks eh from outside. Freind insisted. So went in. I ordered chicken shawarma. Maybe I was to hungry but it was delicious. They had this tangerine drink - was amazing. Had 4 of them. Liked it and was worth getting if I 95 - good substitute for a lousy burger at the rest stop.

I stopped in this restaurant/grocery store a little too early for the lunch buffet, so i opted for the falafel appetizer and a gyro sandwich. The falafel was crisp on the outside and very tasty.. The gyro was pretty good also. Although the pita that it was served on tasted like it was either frozen or premade, it wasn't a bad meal. Inside the store there was all types of candy, spices, gifts, clothing, drinks, and frozen products. I wish i had more time to just hang out. But i will stop in again the next time that I'm in the area.
