The place is well decorated and looks quite good however the food was a big let down. After eating here one gets an impression that they are just trying to masquerade as a Middle Eastern (ME) joint when they don't have any intention of running it as such. For us ME food is all about freshness and the vivid flavors but this place was far from that.The pita bread they served was stale, hard and cold. The humus was boring and bland. The biryani was bland and poorly presented. Portions are small and a bit over priced but I guess you pay for "sitting" in Starhill Gallery I guess.We have had Middle eastern food before but not like this. We rather prefer the Al Amar inside Pavillion mall on the 4th floor, the experience and food quality there is so much better and truly Middle Eastern.
