I love this place and so does everyone I take here! This is a family owned middle eastern restaurant and oh boy. My husband and I have ordered everything on the menu now and we LOVE it all. It’s a little hole in the wall that is divine.

This is the best non chain donut joint that has held their colors true for so many consecutive years. They’re local, they come fresh and fast and they sell out before 2pm. Don’t be Tardy!
