    My girlfriend and I went on a Friday night and had an outstanding experience. We were warmly greeted and had excellent service from all the staff and manager. The food was delicious. We ordered the kabob plate and all were tender and juicy. We will definitely be coming back soon and recommending to our family and friends! 10/10

    Food and service is great as is the ambiance. The biggest problem is CLEANLINESS. every single dish, glass, and piece of silverware came to us filthy - caked in food dried on by the dishwasher. Truly sickening to find bits of salad fossilized into the tines of my fork.
    Faz - San JoseResponded on June 22, 2026
    Dear Susan, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. As you can imagine, this is concerning for us to read: we take pride in our food, service, and cleanliness and I sincerely apologize that your experience didn't reflect that. Please know that we are investigating internally to ensure this is addressed immediately. I'll be reaching out to you privately to follow up. Thank you, Faz Management
