I went in a bit hesitant because of the 3.9 rating, I was in the area & did not have many options around. but it turns out that rating just isn't fair anymore. it's based on an old menu! The new menu is full of creative Arabic-fusion dishes with really balanced flavors.

We tried the matcha pancakes with white chocolate & labneh sauce & they were incredible (& I'm not even a matcha person!). The falafel salad with egg was excellent the falafel tasted authentic & the tahini dressing was great. The Turkish eggs with labneh had amazing flavor too, served with fresh-baked pita with za'atar & herbs that was next level.

My advice: don't judge this place by its old rating give it a chance, you won't regret it

Just pick a different place. Extremely slow, so far 45 mins for poached eggs & they are still not ready. If you sit in the interior be ready to have a headache, loud music & zero noise absorbing elements!

Beautiful space & very friendly, accommodating servers! The food was nothing short of phenomenal! Our party got the Avocado Toast, Turkish Eggs, Halloumi Plate, & Chicken Waffles - we recommend every single one :)

The drinks were a bit underwhelming, unfortunately. They have a variety of specialty coffees, but the flavours of the Miso Caramel Latte & Almond Croissant Latte didn't stand out. I'd say it's best to save the money on drinks.

It can get quite busy, especially on weekends, so make plans to arrive early or make a reservation!

I ordered the turkish eggs & my partner ordered the chicken & waffles. Both meals were absolutely delicious & I would go back there again. This was my first time having turkish eggs & it was a pleasant experience & it was well balanced out with the bread. My only complaint about this place is that we waited a while at the entrance to be seated even though there was no one in front of us.

This place has been consistently good for many years. Matcha pancakes & Turkish eggs were very good. Highly recommend, not sure why the ratings aren't higher.

Chicken waffle (7/10): Good but was a bit too sweet
Matcha pancakes (5/10): You don't taste the matcha very much
Falafel eggs (8/10): Pretty good
Latte drinks (3/10): Got the sésame & miso Caramel but they're both very gimmicky & are nothing special, you can barely taste the specialty flavors

Their matcha drinks were sold out by the time we got there at 12pm. Would try that & the hallumi dish next time instead.
