Sorry to say, we were disappointed. It is always crowded and has such good reviews, plus we love Mediterranean food, so we thought it would be great. We did not realize that it was family style, until we got our doggy bags-and saw family style written on the bag. Normally the waitstaff would alert you. Ours did not bother to. We enjoyed the mezze and fresh pita, the hummus was really good, but the entrees were just ok,not seasoned or flavorful. Mint tea and desserts were good....

What a wonderful little place! They were so sweet, we wanted a baklava and they let us in and gave us the dessert in the house! They said happy thanksgiving and we had one of the best baklavas of our life.

Excellent middle eastern restaurant.
With all the classic dishes like hummus and tabuleh, and good quality shawarma. They don’t have lamb but chicken and beef.
Beet salad was excellent.
Combination appetizer platter was excellent too - recommend it highly.
Overall, a nice experience and great food.
