Not very good not very bad looks more like average street cafes! There's nothing that special their food n drinks are not bad but you'll kinda feel it's old from days ago ... The staff are friendly you'll be independent n cozy feeling too ... I wouldn't repeat going there for sure ...

We really loved this café. The vibe is great, there are screens to watch football matches and games to play. It would be great if they make cards and chess available. We liked their food however the drinks need some improvement such as the fruit juices ( carrots and orange juice was almost tasteless). Shisha’s are great 😊

Nice small cafeteria food type nice snacks , nice atmosphere

Nice Cafe in ankawa in erbil , we ordered shisha / Nargela and koktel juice, recommended to visit

Very delicious food. Good prices. Deserve 5 star

A well priced and comfortable restaurant with nice staff, a varied menu and a good atmosphere. WiFi, shisha and sport available.

Nice place to meet a blind date or bluff a coworker or close a bargain but don't think an average family or person can visit again

Clean, comfortable, and has a wide range of food to fit all tastes. The food is not all to my liking, however. The alfredo pasta had more garlic than I prefer. The lazagna dish was a bit messy and also had more garlic than I would prefer. It was served very hot, however, which I liked a lot. When I ordered delivery: The Zinger is not that spicy, there were blackened lettuce peaces that looked as though they were not properly cleaned. The supreme was perfect and the Shawerma was excellent but not the best there is

I love this cafe, it’s kind of working place for me.

My new favorite place in Ankawa especially to work

Takes too long to prepare the food, but the food is great with reasonable prices

Nice place in a nice street, delicious pizza, tasty shisha, great for fruends night out or family

Good cafe and very good shisha and good food And nice staff.

Very good service, good quality for shisha, good food

Good food, and good service.

Good seating, good food and fresh drinks and not expensive

All in, not nearly worth the price we paid. Steer clear! Go anywhere else!

It ok good location but need better test of goods

Highly recommended . very good meals

The food was very good and I specially liked his Potatoes Putin, despite the current controversy on the name. But the service is somewhat slow and of course the problem of no dedicated non-smoker zone

Nice service and good food

Please ignore this place, everything was bad. And the service, horrible.

Good food and sevice but the prices were better before

Good Service, Good beverages, Good Food. Very nice place to hang out with friends and to do some work.

Nice place but the meal not very good

I wanted to watch Bayern Munich contra Liverpool in the APAYA Restaurant. So I went there one day in advance to ask the manager if this is possible?! He assured me that everything is fine and so I even made a reservation for me and my friends. Eventually the next day when we entered they were about to show the Barca match against Lyon. I asked them to change the program but they refused. I told them that I made a reservation, that all my friends came with me to watch the game but they just responded that the other guests want to watch Barca. This was so rude and annoying... Worst: When I asked to speak to the manager THEY FLAT OUT LIED to me that yesterdays manager today is not the manager anymore. They were rude, disrespectful, impolite, which is awful! But the lying was the worst. I can not stand a lie and I will never ever go back there. - Fortunately the CASA Nostra in the same street displayed Liverpools grand victory.
