A cafe/heaven where they give you so much food for the right price. And that they have great customer service. Always go when you are hungry, I promise you will be full at the end.

The food was definitely on the upper-end of quality when compared to other middle-eastern restaurants I have eaten at. The rice was spiced very nicely. The garlic sauce was creamier than other ones I've had, which was different, but I liked it a lot. I also liked the sumac on the hummus. I'm from Ontario, and that is not very common in Ontario (at least not where I've eaten), but I think it adds a good flavour to the hummus. Also, the baklava was dense and had a lot of nuts in it. It was a little pricier than I would have expected, but because of this I felt it was worth it. Very nice with tea after the meal. Overall very nice meal. More...

Absolutely one of the best restaurants in Haliafx with no doubt. I have been to the restaurant too many times and never was disappointed. Steady food quality and service no matter what time you go.I have tried most of the menu items so far and I can confidently recommend Chef Abod. They have great lunch special with variety to choose from.The customer service: outstanding and never disappointed. Chef Abod himself is a very polite gentleman and he comes out from time to time. John is another story, highly skilled and very decent in dealing with customers. New staff member Eli is also very nice and respectful and always wear a smile.In a nutshell, Chef Abod is a must try restaurant if you live or visiting the city. More...

Very tasty middle eastern, syrian restaurant. The lamb mandi is a favorite. Fall off the bone, juicy and tender lamb shank with a charcoal and cardomom scented rice. Pair with the appetizer plate for a sampling of smaller items. The portions are quite generous and you can usually split one meal or have lots of leftovers. Mmmm... little basic salads accompany the meals that are uncomplicated, fresh, but not the main event. Definte recommend and intersting lunch or dinner catering options. Restuaurant reminds of a quaint, authentic middle eastern cafe. More...

Very nice and traditional food with a lot of choices. Cozy environment. The customer service is best. Food portions are good and well cooked. Giving 4 stars because of sweet dishes especially the kunafa it wasn't that good and cheese inside it was hard. More...

They have the best lamb (mandi, kebob, kabsa) in the city - I drive all the way from the valley for their food. Great service, offers delivery- huge value in terms of portions vs. Price.
