" We had a lovely time at Gundis. The food was flavorful, and everything seemed fresh. We enjoyed the authentic Kurdish breakfast for two, and it was more than enough food! The server was friendly and quick—though at times, we felt a little rushed since it was quite busy. The environment felt nice and intimate, perfect for brunch with friends. I’m looking forward to coming back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I visited Gundis for the first time and absolutely loved it! The atmosphere felt inviting, and we were greeted warmly at the door. We ordered the mixed appetizer platter, and it set the tone for the evening with its vibrant flavors. The Kurdish breakfast was more than enough for two; the variety kept us exploring. To wrap things up, we tried the baklava crepes, and they were... divine! I can't recommend this place enough to anyone looking for authentic, hearty meals. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to a quality Armenian or Kurdish meal, but unfortunately, Gundis didn't hit the mark for me. I found the lentil soup very bland, and the chicken shish was overly dry. On the positive side, the service was impeccable—our waitress was pleasant and kept checking in on us. The atmosphere was cozy, albeit a bit too dim for my liking. The prices seemed a bit high considering my meal didn’t impress me. However, based on what others around me were eating, there’s potential here. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here was amazing! I really enjoyed the lamb shank and the Kurdish tea. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, perfect for a romantic date night. However, I found the portion sizes a bit on the smaller side for the price. Despite this, I plan to return because of the delightful service and fantastic flavors. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Kurdish cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve tried Gundis multiple times, and it keeps getting better! Their Kurdish breakfast is a must for anyone visiting. Everything was freshly made, and the assortment made it a feast. The staff is always welcoming, making you feel right at home. I especially appreciated their effort to accommodate gluten-free requests without hesitation. This place has a wonderful balance of flavor and comfort, and I'll be recommending it to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Quite the delightful experience! The ambiance is wonderfully cozy without being cramped. I had the veggie platter as a vegetarian option, and it didn't disappoint. Each dip and side was bursting with freshness. The staff were attentive and friendly, making for a great dining experience. I appreciated the focus on authenticity down to the little details! Looking forward to my next visit to try other dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gundis is a lovely restaurant that offers a beautiful atmosphere and flavorful dishes. However, I was surprised by the portion sizes which felt slightly inadequate considering the price. The vegetarian dishes were really tasty, and I enjoyed the experience overall. The tea at the end of the meal was a nice touch! I'd consider returning to give it another shot, perhaps during brunch.
