“Everything here had plenty of flavor and hit the spot!”
Received a Yelp Review of the Day badge (per source note, dated Aug 6, 2009). Roger's pomegranate soup was hearty and distinctive; also had a lamb chop dish, and his friend had a beef or chicken dish mixed with fruit. Indoor seating plus an outdoor patio; order took 15-20 minutes.
An East Village Middle Eastern spot with live music and hookah that Roger found after The Kebab Shop was already closed, praising juicy, well-seasoned kebab plates and generous portions.
A Gaslamp shawarma and doner spot Roger uses as a late-night alternative to taco shops, noting the food isn't as authentic as overseas but is quick, cheap and filling, with the advantage of staying open later than The Kebab Shop.
