Bought food for my family. Wow we were all blown away. The flavor of the rice in the beef shawarma plate blew our minds. The side salad was delicious and the fattoush is always good. We also got chicken kebabs, a pound of chicken shawarma meat, and a shawarma sandwich. Great portions lovely people. The cup of chai made the experience a 10/10.

Best middle Eastern food in San Diego. The salad is amazing, the chicken and beef kafta are delicious and the rice is just on another level. The garlic sauce is also a must. It can seem a little pricey, but the portions definitely make up for it. The ambiance has family vibes and the service is great. They have indoor and outdoor dining areas, you can also order to go.

If you want authentic Syrian food this is hands down the best spot in California, if not America. The customer service is also top notch.

One of my favorite Persian food in East San Diego! Authenticity and quality is what one always looks for in a good restaurant. The service here is great, they have indoor and outdoor dining. It is one of the places where one should come when eating with friends and family. Sharing is caring! Recommendations: Family combos! Hummus Fattoush Tabbouleh And the kabobs!

Mal al Sham or taste of Damascus is always a treat! this middle Eastern food in El Cajon can't be beat! so settle in, order some soup, shawarma, kofta and any variety of meat. great service, well priced options incomparable flavor all to eat!
