Being a Google Maps reviewer specifically for restaurants, I always think that my learning experience in restaurant industry will be limited but every time I learn something new. I found this restaurant on my Google map search and since it’s rating was 4.9 and the pictures of Lamb kabab was very tempting for me to ignore. Me and Wifey decided that this should not be missed. So we came for a dinner on our short trip to Orlando.

At first, we were not expecting that good ambiance, so Kudos on that to owner to maintaining it that good. Now let’s talk about the unique experience I had. Usually in restaurant either we get good or bad for service or food, but this place I was surprised that food was awesome and service was not bad either, but my whole experience turned down because employees were not trained up to par. Let me explain. The server I talked to didn’t understood that I want the Uzbek rice (not the white rice) with my Lamb Kabab. He mistakenly ordered Uzbek rice main course dish, which I had to return. Second the Kabab didn’t came hot, they were barely luke warm, which was surprising for BBQ item. Either they stayed in kitchen longer or something else. I asked for medium temperature and it was medium. Overall my feeling was if employees got proper training on communicating with customers, the experience could have been better. English is my third language as well, but speaking to servers was hard as I was able to see they were struggling to communicate (at least two I spoke to).

Food on the other hand was good, it was pricy TBH, which is normal for any Halal Restaurant, we muslims have to pay Zabiha Premium price. I wish I can come here again if the employees are trained by that time.

Pros: Good Food Taste Family friendly ambiance. Nice and clean place

Cons: Untrained staff (specially for communication) Food temperature was warm (should be hot) Price is high Portion for white rice is very less

Food Ratings: Lamb Kabab: 8 / 10 Beef Kabab: 7.5 / 10 White Rice: 7 / 10 Uzbek Bread: 7.5 / 10

I believe this format best justifies my review, so I will hopefully continue using it for all my future reviews.
