My partner and I came here for date night and really enjoyed it. We are middle eastern so we are familiar with the food, and I think it’s nice to be able to try little bites of different foods with the silk route feast. We felt like the food was good, and it was a nice date night experience. The live music idea is good but the particular one the night we went wasn’t that great. Their service was really good, and I particularly appreciated that they would clear out empty dishes asap, as they would see them walking by. We will definitely be back.

East is East delivers a sensory experience to delight and entertain today's demanding patrons. The popularity of this restaurant is well deserved.We were a party of five and had made reservations in advance. It was busy and walk in dining could not be accommodated while we were there. The restaurant is open and decorated with natural woods. Peppered throughout the restaurant are art and curiosities in a respectful nod to eastern traditions and culture. Everything is impeccable, tidy, and clean.Service was excellent. Our waitress was friendly and well versed in the menu. As I mentioned, East is East is a busy restaurant and our waitress was running to keep up. She remained friendly and approachable throughout the meal.We also loved the live entertainment. We started with a Vietnamese musician playing a 16 string zither. They were followed by lively flamenco dancers. It was fun and complimentary to the ambiance of East is East.The food was varied and delicious. It is based primarily in middle Eastern traditions. We had the Silk Road option, which gives unlimited small portions and you can try all the different flavors on offer. Spices are layered and complex, with a decidedly softer tone compared to Indian cuisine in my opinion.This is a dining experience and well worth your time and effort to try. There is a two hour dining limit and street parking can be a challenge in this area; but neither of those factors should discourage you from trying this excellent restaurant.

The moment you enter, you are greeted with nice & warm cup of chai. Food was good, i felt it is more on expensive side if we compare the meal with other good restaurants. There’s live music, and they charge $3 per person in your final bill. Turned out to be an expensive meal for sure.

Warm and relaxing atmosphere! I was impressed with the way you order your dishes. Practically you can try everything they have in small portions. Amazing idea. Smiley and courteous staff. Pillows and cussouns on seats. Delishous food. Will return with family or friends! Recommended!
