Great food; great service. Simple but pleasant ambience. They allowed us to linger at the table--no rush. Look forward to returning.

From outside it’s almost un noticeable. The service was great. Atmosphere was cool and easy and friendly but the most important thing the food was excellent. The Turkish coffee was excellent. Tea was excellent. We really enjoyed it and bubble baklava for dessert was superb.

My husband and I met friends here on a beautiful Sunday evening and enjoyed a delicious meal. Three of us ate the salmon and it was cooked to perfection. The service was welcoming and gracious (I believe our server's name was Jacqueline). I highly recommend this restaurant!!

This is a nice little restaurant with the friendliest staff and best Mediterranean food! We needed a place to kill some time before a flight, so sat there a bit longer after our meal, the staff was super nice about it and even served us extra cups of tea.

The quality of food was good, however it was on the bland side & not enough food was served. Also the bill was very expensive and gratuity was added on.

I understand the area is pricey & wouldn’t mind paying for it, but the food should be great not ok & the quantity should be more not less.

Place is okay, it looks promising but then turns mediocre during the experience. Biggest issue I had is that we (group of 9) followed the owners “advice” that he will treat us well and sets up a good table, and wanted to make sure we leave a 5star review.Also made it seem like that first drink is on the house, but wasnt true.
The food wasn't bad but portions weren't huge but heftily charged. basic beers are 13 bucks including tax and gratuity, and the final bill for each of us with 2 drinks average was 90 bucks a person, what a magic trick! he even had the audacity to “divide by 9” and round up the last 16 bucks, insane. Sorry, yeah you had okay baklava “not even close to European standards though” but I ain't paying 5bucks per piece (I say, per piece, not per plate).
Evade this place and find something better and exclusive for the money, or same quality for half the price. Never will come back sir, but that was your business model anyway i suppose; pluck ‘em while you have ‘em.
