The lamb shish earns singular praise for its tender, smoky perfection, while the overall vibe is one of unpretentious, hearty satisfaction that feels like a genuine Kurdish welcome.
“With the lamb and the lamb fat in there, it's going to be outrageous. It's taking me right back to our experience in France at L'As du Fallafel. The bread is bubbly and gorgeous. The lamb fat does all the heavy lifting when it comes to flavor. It was grilled by Beelzebub — absolutely stunning.”

Kurdish Shawarma
Oh my god, that is meat. Smoky, juicy, charred, delicious sauces. The freshly cooked bread is delicious — so beautifully chewy but soft. Those sauces elevate everything. We might be looking at a 10 out of 10 kebab here. I didn't expect that.
Lamb Shish
