First time here today and place filled up quickly. We were served the most delicious Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food available. Everything was freshly made. I'm sad I found this fantastic restaurant at the end of my stay here in Sarasota but look forward to eating here alot upon my return.

I eat Mediterranean often. This is LITERALLY the best Hummus Tzatziki, Bab Ganoush and Gyro I have EVER had. So glad the Lord Jesus Christ led me here!

This place is a hidden gem. It was very well priced, good service and the food was fantastic. If you want great lebanese food, stop by here.

The food is very fresh and authentic, but the customer service is defintely lacking. For a small "cafe", it's pretty much what you'd expect as far as decor...nothing fancy, but it's clean. They have a good variety of European Grocery & bakery items for sale, which is very nice. If you can get past the lack of customer service (everyone just seems "bothered" that they have to wait on you) the food is worth it, because the food is outstanding and delicious!

This is cafe t. It is not restaurant. The food and place are Ok. The price is reasonable. But be careful the water bottle it will cot you $2.45 that is double even the nice restaurant.

This restaurant has healthy food at great prices. I go there when I have a craving for tabouli, hummus, salad with tahini dressing. I asked them for the tahini dressing because I like it and they accommodate me which is nice. Their spanakopita (spinach pie and flaky crust) is awesome and I like that I can get it in a platter so I can get my hummus and tabouli with it . They have the best pita bread that comes with it as well. It's nice and thin and tastes excellent. It's very casual and you place the order and they bring it to you, they also sell cookies and Middle Eastern food products too!
