Make a reservation or show up super early and hope for a chair on the counter. Down the street from us- walking is two blocks. Great vibe and even better food. Share the Shawarma sandwich and definitely the humus. Skewers are pretty tasty too, my fav was the chicken Shishlik. Save room for desert or/and grab a pre dinner cocktail.
