    Delicious cafe for tea, coffee, pastries and mezze and salads/wraps. Love the red dragon iced green tea with sour cherry as well as the swarma wraps. The menu is extensive for its square footage.

    I tried the Allston location before finally visiting this location and I prefer this one much better. It's smaller but I like the cozy feeling, and the fact that it doesn't feel as loud. We came on a Sunday and managed to snag a table for the two of us, but people cycle in and out pretty frequently.

    I ordered an iced chai and two pastries. The chai had a great mix of spices and the pastries were pretty filling. I got a Persian Spiced Kouign Amann and the Za'atar Man'ouche, which satisfied my sweet and savory cravings.

    This place was recommended and after receiving a gift card I went with my mother to check this place out.
    While pricey, if you’re willing to cough up some cash it is well worth the money for the quality you will get from this food.
    We had ordered the Turkish style breakfast which had a soft boiled egg wrapped in an ingredient I do not know the name of but it added crunch and mild sweetness to it. There were cucumbers, olives, tomato that was mashed and sweet yogurt which was topped with seasonal spoon sweets. You can refer to the image but this was one of my favorite things with the blend of refreshing vegetables that were light and paired with sweet creamy substances. It was filling yet not overbearing.
    Geno’s egg sandwich was worth the getting my hands messy as the egg was cooked just enough that the yolk broke upon first bite adding extra flavor that brought out the halloumi cheese and tomato concasse.
    The granola bowl was another favorite being served in Egyptian carrot jam and labne that made it stand out compared to other granola bowls.
    We had purchased the Turkish coffee which we felt was decent but not as good as Andala coffee houses especially when comparing price and value.
    The desserts were the date almond ma’amoul and chocolate tahini tart. The tart was smooth, rich and not overly sweet compared to the breakfast Items which was a nice change.
    Lastly, the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. The music was middle eastern and not so loud that you could not have a conversation.

    Absolutely worth the trip. One of the best bakeries in the greater Boston area. You know it's the real deal when the owners have their own cookbook. Service was kind and attentive. Will be coming back to try more things!
