Delicious, heaping portions (had the shawarma, lamb kabob, chicken tikka), the soup on the side was fantastic! Very friendly service and the place was very clean. The baklava was terrific!

We ordered the Meat for two, hummus plate, and I think we got the lamb stew as a bonus? I heard the Kurdish got tea. Every thing was wonderful! The stew was my favorite! I'm glad it came with our order. The chicken and rice were very good, the hummus was delicious. If we lived closer I'd definitely be back for more of that stew!!

Everything is homemade. While we waited we had our hummus! Very flavorful, authentic, and unique! The owner and workers are very nice! We love the food so much and hope more people discover this hidden gem in moorhead! The dessert is to die for! Everything was amazing

This is some amazing food! It is truly unique too. While Kurdish food is Mediterranean, it is different from typical Mediterranean dishes and I personally like it much better. It is a small family business run by a local Kurdish man and his wife, so you know the food is authentic. They are both such lovely humans, they have gone out of their way to serve me as I have spent time in their store. I cannot recommend it more to anyone in the area! Please stop by if can!!

Delicious dinner choice while passing through Moorhead enroute to Alaska. Owners were very friendly and worked hard to serve a steady stream of customers. The food was amazing, the Shwarma chicken and lentil soup were great. We had to take most of the hummus with us for a car snack becasue the servings were so large. Big fans of this place!
