Such a beautiful outdoor courtyard dining area. Entrance could be hard to find. On Melrose, there is a small hallway that leads up to the courtyard. The ambiance was so sweet and charming, and everything also tastes amazing too. Their burrata toast was my favorite. Definitely suggest it. Parking is street parking.

We had a birthday dinner at this cute restaurant. Food and service was amazing. Outside patio is nicely done. True mediterranean tastes in style, probably better than most of high end restaurants in Los Angeles. At least it was the best mediterranean food I have had in LA so far. Highly recommended!
Fantastic and amazing food and atmosphere. Super bummed to learn they are closing forever the next day after we just discovered it. I know restaurants are rough, but you gotta plan at least a year before they catch on. The name of the restaurant should have more direct reflection on the food. A Turkish word or two. The name as it is with the tree and wishes doesn't stick. Terrible signage. Terrible name. Incredible food. Beyond amazing service. Perfect location.

This place is sooo cool Modern Mediterranean! Love the ambiance, amazing food, and the people! Its a "hidden gem" for sure in Melrose!

This place is so good. Look how pretty my food is! Unreal. I got some beet hummus on my pants and it actually made my pants look better haha!

This was so disappointing. I read great reviews. On the plus side, the restaurant was beautiful. Garden setting. Heat lamps. Even blankets ion request. The service was atrocious. The server did not know what was on the menu. She had to leave every time we had a question so it took a while to order. The dishes sat on the table in between courses. To be clear, there were plenty of staff members because the place was not even half full. It was as if no one was not trained and it was their first time at work. All this could be forgiven if the food was great. It wasn't. Meh best describes it. I should note that my 2 friends both had stomach issues after dinner. But the worst part was ordering dessert, being specific about my food allergy and then receiving the cheesecake with berry sauce. Luckily I ended up noticing it in time and I did not end up in the hospital. When I informed the manager he was completely nonchalant. I chose to let it go instead of making a scene. I'm sad to leave this review. After eating at home for 18 months, I'm excited to get back out. These type of experiences make me want to go back to my tried and true spots and not take chances on new places.

Great atmosphere and food!
We celebrated my wife's birthday here and it was awesome. The outdoor seating is fantastic and definitely reminiscent of Mediterranean dining. The patio setup and music were fantastic. The food was excellent and also good portions. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. We'll definitely be back!

Beautiful secluded courtyard, lined with mature trees and plants. Vintage French pop/lounge tunes gently caressing your ear. Attentive servers. Beautiful unpretentious fresh flowers on every table. Relaxed vibe. Comfortable seating. We ordered brunch mezze for two and drinks. The Mutabel was outstanding and the beet hummus delightful. The warm pita fluffy and comforting. It felt like I was transported to another place and time for an hour in the midst of busy Melrose. I was on a Mediterranean vacation right here in LA. I didn't leave a wish on their olive tree. My wish already came true.
you can hang your wishes on a tree. it has a charming space. food is scrumptious. i had humus, salad and rose wine. extremely satisfied

the mezze was good. The tree of wish is a fantastic idea. The food could be better but it was the first day for brunch. Omelette was yum, rest was debatable

Excellent Mediterranean/Turkish cuisine in a lovely courtyard with great service. What's not to love about Tree of Wishes? Enjoy.

This dining experience was the best I've had since the Pandemic. Everything was exquisite. From the food to posting wishes on tree. This is a jewel I will return to over and over again.
