Tried this restaurant out this weekend and so glad I did! The service, food, and atmosphere of the restaurant was incredible. Some of the best food and drinks I have had in a while. The staff was so kind and welcoming. Such a hidden gem! Definitely coming back!

Such a great experience! Everything we ordered was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. Our server, Seth, was amazing - super friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the menu, which made the experience even better.

We started with the octopus, which was cooked perfectly and seasoned perfectly. The lamb chops were hands down the best I’ve ever had (and as a self-proclaimed lamb chop connoisseur, that says a lot). My boyfriend ordered the prime rib sandwich and said it met all of his expectations - he was very impressed. We ended with the pear dessert, which was so unique and absolutely delicious.

10/10 experience. This place is seriously underrated, and we will definitely be back.

Latin Mediterranean infused restaurant. Fresh ingredients. Unique recipes. Clean and spotless atmosphere. Wonderful Martinez Cup appetizers. Great Hangover soup. Incredible Lemon Chicken with delicious veggies. Yummy Baklava fresh crunchy. Would definitely make the drive out of my way to come back again.

Cute spot with really tasty food! We had a couple of sandwiches that had great flavor and they have my favorite type of fries. Prices fair and portions were good. Staff was kind and attentive. I’d definitely return to try other items!

Wow just wow. This place was randomly found on Google and glad that we found this little hidden gem! The food is amazing. Had the Grilled Octopus and the Martinez Cups. Perfect portions. The lambchop dinner was amazing the lamb was made to perfection and the fries soak up the juices no ketchup needed 😋 and let me tell you about the Argentinian steak so good with chimichurri great texture and good flavor on the veggies. And our waiter Seth is so kind. Was asking how each meal is, making sure everything was made to our liking, and is very informative. Just overall great customer service. Will be back again and will tell family and friens to try this place. And what very different and interesting was that the owner came out to speak to the clients and ask how the meal were. & Thank you for my birthday dessert the Baklava was made to perfection. ❤️ Oh and great choice in music 🎶

If I could leave more stars, I would! From the moment we walked in, we had a great experience. The ambiance was perfect. Inviting, clean, and warm. We had the pleasure of being taken care of by the owner himself. In true small business spirit, he not only greeted & served us, most importantly he prepared a gorgeous meal for us. We started with the roasted red pepper spread, by his recommendation. It was DELICIOUS! We also got the Latin Salad as well as the Phoenix Flame short rib burger. That burger is better than any sandwich I’ve ever had. Truly a must try!!! We will be back

Delicious food made fresh to order. Friendly, knowledgeable and attentive staff. We were served a four course meal with perfect timing between dishes. If you are into Mediterranean and Latin food this place is noteworthy in every regard. The perfect place for a savory sit down experience. Compliments to the chef who came out to greet us and make our anniversary meal delectable and unique.

Had the shrimp skewers. So good. The salad with feta was nicely dressed. Fries crispy. Unassuming locale but worth stopping in.

The restaurant, only two years old, is sparklingly beautiful and feels brand new. What really captures the eye is the large mural on two opposing walls—a delicate, beautiful work with clear Mediterranean influences. We were fascinated to learn it was created by the chef.

Our dining experience was excellent, with one minor exception. We started with steam bun pork belly sliders and red cabbage, which were wonderful—perfectly balanced between sweet, savory, and smoky flavors. My husband's chicken soup with hand-pulled chicken and Greek yogurt was another outstanding dish. I had the grilled octopus next, which was disappointingly tough and chewy. However, my husband's main of white fish with crispy grilled vegetables and an eggplant-tomato sauce was superb.

Overall, it was a wonderful experience. Meeting the chef and hearing the story of his mural was the perfect finish to the evening.
