Great experience, good food, awesome service. There staff was very knowledgeable and took the time to make suggestions, and made sure our group had a great time. There twist on the Old Fashion was really good! The scallops, brussel sprouts, and Lamb kabobs were really good, same for the desserts. This wouldn't have been my first choice, but glad I went.
Vegetarian options: They had some really good options for vegetarians and pescatarians
Went there with friends to celebrate. I recommend both mezz plates, lamb kebab. Both desserts were also amazing. Service was excellent. Great place also for vegans.
Beautiful restaurant and delicious food, worth a visit. I wish the bar was separate from the restaurant.

Food was soooo delicious! The waiter was very sweet. Beautiful space. The outdoors decor is boring and unassuming, but then you walk in and wow!

Sifr’s vibe and service is on point. However, the food is not so much. The food was very underwhelming. We got a variety of things on the menu and all were under par. The only reason I am giving this restaurant 3 stars is because the service was great and the atmosphere is good for a nice dinner. But the dinner itself was not nice. It was a different sort of middle eastern fusion with other cultural foods but the fusion didn’t work. I would not go back because nothing we ate was worth it.

A great meal for a date night out. Nice ambience and friendly service. Not an overwhelming amount of food, but all high quality.

I recently visited and was quite disappointed with both the service and the food quality. The service was incredibly slow, and it took a long time for our orders to be taken and served. Despite the restaurant not being particularly busy, we had to wait excessively long for our meals.
To make matters worse, the lamb chops I ordered were served raw. I specifically requested them to be cooked medium-rare, but they arrived almost completely uncooked. This was not only disappointing but also concerning from a food safety perspective.
I had high hopes for this restaurant based on its reputation, but my experience was far from satisfactory. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and makes the necessary improvements to ensure a better dining experience for future customers.

Great atmosphere, great appetizers, portion sizes not that great, for the large shareables I’d recommend one plate per three people. Not 5 people to one plate as the server suggested. Everything was good except the Large shareable plates we had ordered was the BRANZINO… fish was so charred… I would compare it to eating a lump of charcoal as far as the flavor profile goes. The roast chicken was super underwhelming and not well seasoned.
As far as service goes, we got our order in and never saw the server again until the check came. She didn’t even care to check k in on us.
The MAITAKE was good though and so was the smoked LABNEH. Other than that I’d say nothing is worth what was charged. Had to stop off elsewhere to actually eat some more food.
Came here for my birthday with reservation and large party (10) Food was truly excellent!!! Service was lacking and left room to be improved on, really wished for a bit better since was for a celebration.

Not sure how this place gets away with calling itself a middle eastern restaurant… so far from the truth. Walked in and walked right out.

Was there on a Saturday night. Service was outstanding by the bar. Kebabs were great. Very pricey for one kebab. Halloumi cheese was dry and sweet. Pretty terrible. I think there are better places for Mediterranean food in the city. Very pricey for portions!

Nasty, the food is nasty. At minimum, I expect a good pita, nope, not here. The place is beautiful though, seriously great aesthetically, but bring your own food.

We were really excited and the upstairs patio was beautiful, but the food just didn't live up to the hype. It was perfectly good middle eastern food - but at those prices for the size of those plates, perfectly good isn't enough in a city with amazing food (and better middle eastern food at similar and lower price points - Galit, cedar palace, aba, ema, and Noon-o-kebob come to mind). I am not upset I tried it, but I can't image going back again.
