RENO, Nev. (CitizenWire) — For the second year in a row, Naan & Kabab has earned the prestigious CMUS Talk of the Town Customer Satisfaction Award, garnering a 4.5-star rating in the Restaurant category in both 2010 and 2011. The award, presented by Talk of the Town News, Customer Care News magazine and Celebration Media U.S. (CMUS), honors companies and professionals that provide excellent customer service as reported by their customers through no-cost, user-review websites, blogs, social networks, business rating services, and other honors and accolades. This data is analyzed by a team of researchers who calculate a company's CMUS Power Rating(TM). Only those that receive a 4-star to 5-star rating receive the CMUS Talk of the Town Customer Satisfaction Award.
Naan & Kabab, Reno's only authentic Mediterranean restaurant, opened in February 2009 and is owned and operated by Chef Maurice Afraimi. With more than 40 years of experience, Chef Maurice is an accomplished chef who discovered the need for a Mediterranean restaurant in the northern Nevada community, where he moved after spending more than a decade teaching culinary arts and restaurant operations in Northern California.
Chef Maurice envisioned a cozy, friendly, fine-dining atmosphere, and applied his passion to make it happen by creating unique Mediterranean fusion cuisine. "We welcome everyone and work to accommodate any budget or occasion," says Chef Maurice. The menu includes lamb, Black Angus steaks, seafood and chicken. Additionally, there are a host of vegetarian dishes ranging from traditional hummus, baba ganoush, falafels and dolmades to modern fusion dishes such as Vegetarian Pasta Athena (penne pasta with our house-made saffron tomato and lemon sauce).
"Naan & Kabab serves healthy and flavorful food for a great price, and we plan to support the local arts and entertainment by hosting various events," says Chef Maurice. This includes belly dancing, cooking classes, and wine and beer pairing events. A schedule of these events is available on the restaurant's website.
"Not only will the food and entertainment impress you, but so will the service. The chefs and servers will greet you at the door with a warm welcome." Chef Maurice also spends time each evening to meet with his customers to express his gratitude and assess the quality of their experience.
While paying special attention and detail to the food and providing a magical experience to those who visit, Chef Maurice also maintains a very close relationship with his employees. The employees and faces of Naan & Kabab have been together since the restaurant's opening, and have equally shared in Naan & Kabab's success. "I strive to be as transparent and honest as possible with my staff to cultivate a shared responsibility for all aspects of the business – quality food and service at a low price," he says.
Located at 2740 S. Virginia St. across from the Peppermill Hotel Casino, Naan & Kabab is open Sunday-Thursday from 11:30 a.m.-9:30 p.m., and from 11:30 a.m.-10:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. For more information, call 775-825-3113 or visit online at www.naanandkabab.com .
