Pasha, Millenium Blvd - Closed

I had lunch at this Middle Eastern/North African restaurant on Saturday. I had a shrimp wrap for $9. It was good. The shrimp (6) were about the size of a women's thumb. They weren't overcooked. The herbs and spices along with a little flame induced smokiness made it savory. It came in a traditional wrap with lettuce, tomato, onion and tatziki sauce. They were fresh. It also came with a nice field green salad with some cousin of a creamy Italian dressing. It was a simple, but, tasteful plating. The service was good. The place seats about 60 in the main room. They have a bar and and roped off private room. It was about a quarter full. It is decorated appropriately. The have: murals of Middle Eastern locales, hookah pipes, faux window sills and a seating area merged with a stage for belly dancing. It gives it a very rococo feel just shy of tacky. The menu has Middle Eastern type meat plates and wraps and North African tagines, etc. Most plates were reasonably priced. It's a fine choice for a more upscale Middle Eastern experience.
