The food was absolutely delicious. Went with the green shakshuka and it was tremendous, as was the hummus and the house bacon. Our server was also an absolute gem of a human and took excellent care of us. A bit pricey but worth it. Would definitely recommend.

Had the salatim, cauliflower, and the Frankenmuth to drink. All were delicious and flavorful! Our server was kind and answered all our questions. Really nice atmosphere too. Great for quality one on one time with someone. This was my first time here and already looking forward to coming back and trying the eggplant next!

This is a beautifully designed space and the staff were lovely, from the hostess to the servers. The sazerac cocktails were great. Unfortunately the food was unusually disappointing. Most disappointing was the lamb shank, which was so tough we could not cut it with a knife and did not eat it at all. The server asked about it and we politely said we couldn’t eat it because of toughness. We didn’t ask for it to be taken off the bill, and they did not take it off, but they really should have at this level of restaurant. The roasted potatoes also went uneaten—Dry and unflavorful. The halloumi was good but not as delicious or rich as I’ve had at a middling greektown place. More spicy than delicious. The hummus was fine but did not approach Avec’s. The lamb kofta and eggplant were excellent. But those successes were overshadowed by the mediocrity of the rest of the meal. Sadly we will not come back.

With all the Mediterranean options in the city, this one does not miss. Starting with making your own cocktails (or mocktails) from fresh juices and home made sodas and the hummus is a must. The smell of the brick oven baking naan was just adding to the clean floral atmosphere of this bright restaurant. All the flavors popped in every dish without being overpowering. This is a fantastic spot for dates, especially in the summer. Can't wait to go back!

This was my first but won't be my last trip to this lovely neighborhood spot in Andersonville. We were greeted warmly and the service was lovely and efficient. The food was terrific, and given the aromas when we arrived, that was no surprise. Very reasonably priced. The restaurant was full on a cold March Tuesday, which says a lot.

Beautiful restaurant, cool menu. Food was fantastic, host is the nicest guy ever. Could you ask for better service? No. You can't. Owners, psh. The best. Schnitzel was probably the best I've ever had. Bar is gorgeous too. If you don't go here. We'll, you suck. Period.

I just walked out because my waitress straight up forgot about me, walked up said “I’m your waitress, I didn’t know” and then walked off and forgot about me again. I was excited to eat here but I’m not begging to be served.
