Sunrise Cafe

My husband and I went to Sunrise Cafe last night. Greek/Kurdish food is perfect for summer (and fall, spring...), and My Big Fat Greek Restaurant doesn't quite hit the spot. For quality, authentic Greek (and Kurdish) food, Sunrise Cafe is the place to go.

The restaurant has small tables, and a casual atmosphere. You order at the register; your server then brings your food to you. The tables are plain, but the bench areas have cozy pillows, and the wall decor adds a little ethnic flair. My google searches intimated it was a Greek restaurant, but the history and culture art pieces were Kurdish. I will have to do some research to determine the difference between these geographic areas and cultural groups! We'll be going back for breakfast and Turkish coffee!

Our selections: Shwarma plate (beef/lamb) and the combination plate. Both were well portioned- enough to fill you up but not leftovers. Every dish was cooked to perfection- the rice had an interesting nutmegy seasoning, the dolmades were the best I've had, and the Schwarma was divine. Even the hommas had interesting flavors and was good on its own.

Pros:
DELICIOUS food. Great Baklava! Friendly servers.

Cons:
Small/medium menu selection.

Price Point:$7-17
Atmosphere: Casual, Indoor/Outdoor eating

Verdict: Go there!

Sunrise and Kolb

My husband wants to state that"They lacked large spoons for the rice."
