Ordered take out via uber eats and came to see the reviews. They had the rice bowl with chicken shawarma and it was excellent. I think the only thing I didn't love was the pita bread- it's not the style that I'm accustomed to but it was fine. I would have loved more salad and less rice as an option but I don't write the menu or own the restaurant so I was quite happy with what I got. Will definitely order again.

This is a lowkey go to spot in deep ellum. They have a good happy hour and strong drinks. Their hookah is $15 for happy hour which is cool. The staff is attentive and even changed the tv to show the mavs game.

Ahhhh the vibes, gotta love the music here. Came for a lil hookah on a lovely semi cloudy afternoon and it did not disappoint. With all the hustle and bustle in Deep Ellum this was a nice escape. Our sever Ryan, was great, super attentive and patient. The appetizer sampler was delicious and the pickled radishes made my heart smile. Perfectly complimented by a pot of mint tea, thanks for everything I needed.

I'm glad I stumbled upon this spot. The decorations were nice and the music was definitely an R&B/Hiphop vibe. The customer service was really good. Our server and the hookah guy stopped by frequently to check on us and make sure we were good. I got the lavender lemon drop martini which was super delicious and my guys margarita was good too. The hookah flavor watermelon, peach, mint was good. The only downside of this place is that it gets really cold in the hookah side of the restaurant. The windows are not insulated and you could definitely feel it. The hookah sat between us did supply a little warmth though. I'd definitely go back. Edit: The management let me know that the cold weather hit them by surprise and since have set up space heaters to make sure guests are comfortable. This is awesome!

I was visiting Dallas, as I waited for my friend I decided to wait at Zåtar. The host was super welcoming and stored my luggage once I walked in. I arrived at 7pm, it was pretty calm not many people. I order mojitos, hookah and chicken wrap. Let me tell you, these mojitos were made to perfection! Perfect balance of each ingredient! I saw a few plates and completely regretted getting a chicken wrap lol but it was tasty! Staff were constantly checking in, which I appreciated! The music was such a vibe both days. Loved this place so much ended up coming back for hookah and drinks the next day.
