These guys are really really struggling and have been for quite some time. If you haven't been you are really missing out as I personally believe they have the best middle eastern food in town. I eat there pretty frequently but one person or family can only do so much.

The owner just posted on FB that he's on the brink of going outta business. If you get a chance stop in and support this locally owned establishment!

My personal favorite is the chicken shish and gyro combo over rice and salad in case you are a little green with middle eastern food.

Babylon has improved tremendously over the last couple years with their food. Big city level good now.

I know there are a couple other establishments in town but as far as I'm concerned it's Zands and Babylon then a big drop off.

If you are going to check them out, I would do so ASAP. From what they posted, it seems they may have basically until next week before shuttering.

And please DON'T use DoorDash, GrubHub, UberEats, or other courier services to get your food. These companies can charge as much as 30% in commission fees to the restaurant and can hurt their bottom line considerably.

I'm sure they are going to be very busy today and throughout the weekend.

Does anyone know if they sell gift cards so we could pay today and enjoy the food later when they are less busy?

They raised the money to stay in business.

Hopefully this created enough awareness to get their business rolling for good.

I'll say it again since it was removed - I don't think "staff" should be referring to a local business in a derogatory fashion such as this. Not professional at all.
