They have HUGE portions! Please order mindfully—get a couple of things and share!
Nice vibe with live music

Normally one of my favorite restaurants but tonight was one of the worse experiences I’ve ever had at any restaurant. Food came out an 1 1/2 late. We ask for bread four times to 3 different people, my husband’s food was cold, my portion of food was cut in half (I always get the same thing and normally I can’t finish it) I left still hungry. I told a waitress that my food was a smaller portion than normal and she said she would handle it and I didn’t get that either. We only saw our waitress twice. The list goes on. I’m extremely disappointed especially because this was my husband’s and I Valentines dinner. I was obviously complaining to my husband and I’m sure someone heard because our waitress then asked us if we want a free dessert, I declined. Didn’t want to wait an extra 45 minutes for a slice of cheesecake.
Contacted Ray, the owner whom responded to this review and left him a voicemail. Never heard back from him. Very disappointing. I was really looking forward to talking to him and letting him know about my experience and getting his feedback.

Took my wife there for valentine's. They had a limited menu, which to be expected, but extremely pricey. Our food was absolutely terrible. Our filet mignon wasn't even edible, and my wife's lobster was way overcooked.I spent three hundred eighty five dollars on two people for dinner.We'll never go back to it again.Try olive garden.

Food was very good, but service was very poor. Our table was oddly positioned at 90 degree angle so I was elbowed twice by the gentleman trying to eat behind me. Took ten minutes to get bread, but no water was poured! Another 10 min to get our drink order and had to request more bread and an initial water pour. Water arrived about 25 min after being seated; drinks ten minutes after that. One dish was cold in the center. Food was very good, but due to the poor (and pour) service. I doubt I’ll be back.

I was greeted by a nice girl but there was a older man look like a manager we were ask if we had a reservation we did not have it so he offered the patio when I know there was plenty tables available and what he tell us that we need to leave at such time we both felt offended my patience is an attorney and no one deserves to be judged by their look he is in the wrong business I will not recommend this place and definitely we took our business elsewhere bad reputation

Nasty food garlic bread hard as a rock. Business overcharged my credit card even after I zeroed out the tip. Waiter charged me anyway and ran my cc twice
Great service since you get in and leave. Large selection and portion of foods. Very clean and servers are attentive & always check if we need anything.
Local restaurant with decent food and attentive service. Couple things lower this rating significantly. First the brunch menu vs. lunch menu has at least a $10 more on brunch than lunch. Fish and chips $28. Vs $18. same amount of food but brunch has a glass of wine. Second, the lunch menu offers a soup or salad for $7.00 after inquiring about a specific soup, I was told it was covered and soup was delivered. Bill came and soup is $12.00. Waiter was questioned and after talking to management I was told that only applies to soup or salad of the day, which was my original question to him. He accepted responsibility but management refused to honor his original statement to me. So, I won’t return and I will tell family and friends about the management choice to refuse to honor said pricing. All this for $5.00. BTW, tip was in full because service attendant was excellent, its management that is lacking hugely.

The seating was tight, atmosphere was ok, and the food was good. However, as someone with allergies to weird things it was not easy to get food that I was able to eat. Overall it was still good, but not a great experience.

Delightful, very classy ambiance. Well themed both indoors and out. House musician who can play just about anything.
Fireplaces inside, torches outside. Very attentive staff from the greeter to management. Excellent drinks, wide variety of appetizers, could have an excellent night just sampling the apps and having a couple of drinks. One thing I would take note of, the $$ rating on Yahoo is unrealistic. I couldn't see someone having dinner here for less than $50-$100 per person with tip included. Worth it? Yes, just be prepared ahead of time.
Wheelchair accessibility: Strip mall parking, generous lanes between seating

They have vegan options and it’s marked on the menu, but they no longer have falafels. The waiter was very helpful in addressing menu questions about vegan items.
This was a terrible experience. First time at this restaurant. Made a reservation and requested to sit inside. They decided to sit us outside next to a water fountain. Wait staff was slow and food took more than an hour to come out after we ordered. The appetizer we ordered was the artichoke jalapeño dip which tasted fine but the pita chips they served with it were burnt over fried and soaked in oil.The waitress admitted that happens all the time (why would you even serve it like that). When the food finally came out it was cold and over cooked. Seems like it was sitting out for awhile ( not very safe). We said something about the appetizer and about the entrees being over cooked and cold. Waitress took the appetizer off the bill. ( again why would you even serve it). Wish I took a picture so everyone could see how gross it was. Paid full price for the rest and ended up not eating anything. They didn’t even offer to redo it or not charge us. All we got was excuses about being short handed ( that would explain the wait time ….but what about the overcooked cold food?).
Don’t go here. I have lived in Santa Clarita for 6 years and this will be the first and last time at this restaurant
We all got Charbroiled Salmon Persian kabobs. They were good but the pilaf rice was dry and not that great. They serve you a huge serving of pilaf but we didn't eat it since it was so dry. The pita bread/ lavash bread thing was at the bottom all soggy and honestly not enough pita. It was a nice place for a date and for wine lovers. I went for the food but unfortunately will not return. I can get these kabobs from food trucks at a much cheaper price. Very pricey but we like to be fancy sometimes.
Kid-friendliness: They have a whole kids menu. My child got chicken tenders with fries. The chicken was un seasoned and kind of burnt but the fries were good. He ate those with ranch. ?
