Utica is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Utica follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Delicious food and friendly service at this family owned Lebanese restaurant. The chicken shawarma over rice pilaf was excellent. The homemade hummus was among the best I’ve had.

I just received a door dash order from here. The baba ghanoush was more tart than Smokey. I bought a large. It was alright, but they only send SIX and I mean only SIX small triangular slices of pita with a large order of it??? Six?!?! Only six. It’s too bad. Going to order from One Arabian night instead from now on- they give a gianttttt piece of pita with their baba ghanoush. Way better

This a beautiful family owned business located in the heart of the city. From the outside it looks small but on the inside we found amazing food, warm-hearted, kind, and friendly staff with a cozy family-oriented atmosphere. The food is very reasonably priced and plentiful as well as DELICIOUS. We loved the experience and highly recommend.

I used to be a regular here about ten years ago or more. Then, I moved away from the area. Well, I just came back for a trip through Utica and had to stop. I got the shawarma gyro, garlic French fries, and falafel. My eyes were definitely bigger than my stomach, but the aroma of the place got me crazed. Fries were hand-cut and the garlicky bits on top were addictive. The chicken was tender and very flavorful. Tzatziki was delicious. Generous portions. Best of all (next to the food) is the friendliness of the staff. Very fun sense of humor of the staff contributes to the overall feel and atmosphere of the place. Delicious, warm, and happenin’.

This is a weird little hidden gem restaurant. You enter from what looks to be the back of a take-out place and walk through to a small dining area. Family-run with friendly staff but sometimes communications breaks down... we didn't have any knives at first. Grape leaves and pita was fresh and tasty. Falafels were very flavorful. My husband had the gyro on a salad. I was happy to close the meal with a slice of baklava and Turkish coffee. The owner was excited to provide us with "edible" sweet spoons made of cookie biscuit, and quite the novelty. The food was excellent, and the people quite lovely. Be warned though, access to the restrooms are narrow and not for the handicapped.
