O MY GOD... THIS PLACE.
A friend and I literally were just looking for a place to finish our conversation (the Peet's coffee was closing super early, and the only other place in the same mini mall was a soft-serve ice cream joint!)
So we walked to the sidewalk to peek for open restaurants, saw the name ("It sounds so down-home and cozy!), and dashed across the street!
O MAN- am I ever glad that we did!!
The place was completely empty when we first walked in (midweek, around 6:30 pm) - but orders were coming thru their 'Grub Hub' alert and calls coming in for pick up.
We grabbed a table, and the man at the counter said to just take a seat, he'd bring us 'everything'.
Without even yet knowing what kind of food it was, we were served up a super yum appetizer of radishes, olives and pickles!! We were kind of shocked - placed don't even offer BREAD anymore... and here we were getting this little gourmet treat before even looking at menus!
We ordered a bunch of appetizers, including the Hummus plate (HEAVENTLY, rich, creamy, dreamy, and of course came with light, crispy lebanese pita), the cheese dumplings (O MY GOSH SOOOOO GOOD - crispy, rich, but very mellow - so good!) and the deep-fried cauliflower - which I have to admit I wasn't excited about at first - my friend ordered it saying how good this can be -
and MAN was she RIGHT!!!
Everything was a home-run. We had a couple Perriers, and it was just the must awesome surprise to have accidentally stumbled on such a find!!
They have whole full rich dinners and lunches, and I cannot WAIT to go back for those!!
If you live ANYWHERE NEAR (or happen to be in) the SFV - YOU GOTTA TRY THIS PLACE. Insanely good!
MUST GO.
Thank you.
