Very mid and expensive… small portions
One of the very best Mediterranean restaurants around. The beef kebab was the most tender and juicy one I have ever had. The Lule and chicken was also very tasty and not dry at all. The portions were large and had great value. The interior is mainly a bar and there are lots of drink options, with plenty of seats and beautiful design.
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
Lunch was not crowded. Food and service was good. The waitress took it upon herself to bring a candle with dessert to help us celebrate a birthday.
Honestly one of the best mediterranean restaurant’s I’ve ever eaten at. The music is great, the service is great, that black bartender is hilarious, blm ✊🏽. Anyways would definitely recommend!
Went with a friend and her husband. They have been there several times I have not. It was great the Middle Eastern food was fantastic and the drinks were amazing.
Absolutely incredible place! Fresh and inviting atmosphere, friendly service, and the authenticity of the food is an A+. I'm out of state but I'm totally coming back with family and all on our next trip. I highly recommend it!
Been a here couple times for dinner and food is always good!

I got a to go. Walked in and just got looked at. After a bit I got handed the menu. Stood there to order and just bypass me wateriest are rude. I came to try it out for the first time and last time. Rice was soggy, hummus was bland the beef was the only thing that was good. No garlic was given nor utensils.

Went here for dinner. I can tell you that the food was delicious, but the service was not pleasant at all. To be honest I would get take out from now on…..
the staff , servers can be more attentive and more polite when talking to their customers. Our server belittled my brother when talking about the different meats ….. very disrespectful. To the manager maybe you should re-train your staff and servers on customer service ….

Such a delicious and wonderful atmosphere. The highlight of it all was the owner coming to chat with us about our meal and making friendly small talk. We ordered the beef Shawarma, chicken kebab, and falafel. Everything is always delicious, and I can't wait to slowly make my way through the menu. To our surprise, we were given complementary baklava at the end of our meal. Overall, we've had only great experiences 10/10

This place was comfortable. The bartender was friendly. He really was the beginning of a great time at this restaurant. ( I dont remember his name , but he was physically in great shape.) The service was great!! I was there with my family and it was a good time.

Food and drinks are amazing here. Warm and friendly atmosphere. The owner, Lucy, is super sweet and attentive to the guests. Look for Mike at the bar if you want some good drinks (weekends). This guy is a master at his craft! Perfect person to talk to if you want to explore new drinks. Don't forget to finish with the baklava!!!
Parking: Multiple parking lots around this area within walking distance. Fridays gets tough because of the farmers market setup so all of Myrtle will be blocked off. Look for street parking in the surrounding neighborhoods
