Desert Rose

I used to eat here at least once a month, but I've noticed a difference in the food and atmosphere. They've changed the menu a bit, which is fine, but it kinda lost it's authentic and simple feel, which added to its charm. The menu used to be simple, the food was good and the service was hospitable with conversation, but it's not the same now. Had the spicy chicken with rice. The rice was hard from being reheated. I did not experience the burst of spices and flavor that I used to enjoy. I truly hope they don't change too much.

Generous on the chicken but it was fatty and overcooked a little. Hummus and salad were delicious and fresh.

Some of the best food in the area, all prepared to order and obviously with a lot of love and care by the chef. Authentic Israeli cuisine made with fresh ingredients, it really doesn't get much better than Desert Rose.

That shawarma platter though. I was so stuffed that I didn't wanna drive, but it was too good to put down. I'm definitely coming back.

A delightful stop in Media. We visited for dinner on a very very cold evening, so Media itself was quiet, and Desert Rose had just a few tables. Our falafel meals were delicious, and dessert was great as well. A very comfortable casual dining atmosphere, makes it easy to want to return!
