A place that needs to be reworked.

A place I would go to when i have nowhere else to go to. To begin with, the staff greeted with some respect which is a great thing to do when entering a restaurant right but there was a problem when i saw the staff here, the staff here were unhygienic and didn’t wear their masks properly barely covering the mouth. The staff has taken us to a comfortable outdoor table that had a fountain nearby anyways the table was prepared with water, dates, sweets to break our fast since it’s Ramadan. Afterwards, staff has served us salad like hummus, fruit salad, cucumber with yogurt, and more but i as a hummus maniac i can definitely agree that the hummus here is a 7/10. Of to the main course, they had foods from east to west which is amazing for cultures and i ordered a steak with a mushroom dressing which was good but the steak was bit to cooked and didn’t that much juice. I’ve eaten the desserts here and my personal favourite is the milk cake which is a muahh. In conclusion, this restaurant’s temper is humid and calm but needs reworks on everything.

There's no item on the menu that you couldn't somewhere else cheaper and just as good, if not better. Credit where credit is due, the interior design is really nice and the restaurant is spacious and is good for...
