Incredible! The owner was so kind and welcoming. We both ordered the garlic chicken platter and loved it. Don’t miss the vegan baklava. The owner told us he’s been running the restaurant by himself for 29 years! Amazing food. Get a patio seat or take it to go on the beach.

Adorable little shop with great vegan options. The food was fantastic. Accessible from the street but easy to miss if you're not careful. Gorgeous outdoor eating area. Atmosphere great. Highly recommended.

This place is pretty awesome. The food is good you order at a window there is a small outside seating area but I took it to go. The baklava is also really really good 12 small pierces for 12$. The falafel wrap was 11.25 and was a good amount of food, it felt healthy and filling. Now I understand why it had a write up from Michelin.
I will return.

Authentic Lebanese food. The owner is extremely hospitable, and the food is top-notch. The flavor of the lamb kafta is uncompared to any other around the area.
I would also highly recommend the falafel and tabouli wrap as those are a perfect dual combination. Sa5tein!

The cafe came highly recommended by the fine folks at the Kayak Connection in Moss Landing. It did not disappoint. We had the gyros and stocked up on vegan baklavas. There's limited seating on site, so take your food to go if possible.

The owner was really kind and patient with our questions about the meat being zabiha halal. The garlic chicken, rice and hummus was very tasty and the falafel wrap we ordered was also yummy. We loved the cashew baklava and really appreciate the owner giving us an extra baklava quietly without letting us know in the takeout order🙂

Delicious food, probably better ordered as take out as there's not much seating. Seemed like only one employee working at the time, but he was working extremely hard.

Great tasting kabobs and hummus, owner was very nice and we went with his recommendation of garlic chicken which had an amazing sauce and of course the baclava was amazing, dining room was closed when we went there for lunch so only patio seating

Great place, the owner /chef serves one party at a time, is super friendly and the food is great and appropriately priced and portioned. My partner and I ordered the falafel plate and the tzatziki plus two pitas, the spicy lemonade and mango nectar. Got a free baklava for spending over 40$ as well!

I passed paprika Cafe many years only because I caught up with him every Tuesday at the Farmers market but now I've noticed he is not there so here I am at his restaurant where he hand makes everything from scratch. I love it I will go to no other place. Why because I just came from Mykonos and now I know what the authentic taste is for Greece and countries that are close to it. My taste buds are craving since I've been back, my favorite is the Lamb and the eggplant baba ganoush but decided to order the spanakopita combo. Ahh it's fantastic 😍😊😘❤️

Good halal food. They know the food they serve is delicious. So the chef is not at his best with customer service. Small dining area but I would definitely eat here again.

Amazing food and the owner is awesome to deal with. Authentic Mediterranean and they even had quite a bit of vegan options including Baklava. The humus is top notch, the Baba Ghanouge is good, the falafel is amazing and the Baklava was spectacular. This is the type of local business that you want to support. It's a small space and parking is limited to street parking in front of the location. If you have more than two people, do takeaway, the food is well packaged and stays in good shape till you get it to your location. They don't skimp on the portions or things like the pita bread. Highly recommend this restaurant.

This is a wonderful spot! There is a cute little nook to sit in. The food was fabulous! The tahini was LIT and the owner was super sweet and came out talked to our family and told us about his interesting life. Highly recommend.

Food was fresh and service was great. I got the vegetarian spanokopita and falafel plate and it was delicious. The vegan cashew baklava slaps. They also have a pistachio and walnut version as well. Will be back regularly.

Delicious little spot. We had garlic chicken (absolutely wonderful) and kafta, which was perfectly seasoned and balanced between lamb and beef. Owner was very friendly and ran a great little operation. We sat on the little nook patio and felt like we were tucked away somewhere abroad. Will be back.

Best falafel in the US, I think. Plus the nicest owner. Can’t recommend this place enough! I was there constantly when I lived in Monterey, and now it’s a must-stop whenever I visit.
