" Cafe 28 is a cozy oasis offering authentic food. I ordered the mixed grill platter, which was delightful, though the portion size was smaller than expected for the price. Service was slower than ideal, but the quality of the meal made up for it somewhat. I will return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don't think I would return. The food was average compared to the reviews. The service was unfriendly and dismissive. I expected a lot more authentic flavor from the shawarma and was disappointed in the portion sizes. " (*Curated Review*)

" An unforgettable experience! My friends and I had a dinner party at Cafe 28, and we were extremely pleased. The lamb shank was so tender that it fell off the bone. The desserts were exquisite too! We felt welcomed and cherished by the owner. Just a note: Do make a reservation as it can get quite busy, especially during weekends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was good, but I felt the service didn't match the quality of the meals. I loved the beef kofta and the dipping sauces, but it took a long time to receive the check after finishing our plates. I understand it's a one-man operation, but a little more attention would go a long way. " (*Curated Review*)

" Really charming little spot. I brought my family and they all enjoyed it! The decor is lovely, and the food is packed with flavor. I did expect a little quicker service since we were one of only two tables there, but overall, a great dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a hidden treasure! I couldn't imagine that one person could produce such amazing flavors. The lentil soup was perfectly seasoned, and the baked rice pudding was heavenly! That said, the portions were a tad small for the price we paid, feeling more like fine dining than casual eating. However, it's definitely somewhere I'd recommend for quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Rich in flavors and full of heart! The chef truly cares about each dish that comes out. The vegetarian options are a highlight, especially the stuffed grape leaves. Even the atmosphere just wraps around you like a hug. Slightly long wait, but totally worth it! " (*Curated Review*)
