One day I had their baked meatballs ($18.00), which were satisfactory. On a different day I tried their meze combination platter ($26), which I expected a lot better of. They offer a pleasant sidewalk dining area. On a Sunday I ordered their hummus topped with lamb. The menu did not state that the chopped lamb topping was spicy, which it was. I did not enjoy it because of the spicy lamb topping. I followed that with the lamb burger, it was not spicy because it had virtually no flavor, and was dry. Although the hamburger was about an eighth of an inch thick, it was not cooked the way i ordered it, medium.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The food here is absolutely amazing! I had the couscous with chicken and lamb, and my husband ordered the tagine—both dishes were full of flavor and cooked to perfection. For our appetizer, we had the hummus topped with ground lamb, and it was delicious. We finished with the apricot bread pudding for dessert, which was incredibly soft and melted in our mouths—it even felt like it was made with babka bread. Everything from start to finish was outstanding. Highly recommend!

Nice and cute neighborhood Mediterranean spot. Overpriced for the quality of food and service but good if you want to try out tagines.

The food was really good- the gnocchi was exceptional. Kenny was very helpful throughout and his service made the experience even more fantastic. Went on Valentine’s

Food was good overall, just think their menu is a bit too pricey for what it is. Tuna tartar was really tasty

EAT HERE!!!
Thanks to Yelp, I chanced upon this fantastic restaurant last Saturday. My husband and I had dinner with a childhood friend of mine and his wife. The three of them couldn’t stop complimenting my research skills! Even the proprietor couldn’t believe that I found his restaurant on Yelp! I explained to him that the reviewers on Yelp usually shave off a point or so for higher pricing. Google reviewers are far more price agnostic. That doesn’t mean that an establishment must ignore Yelp. Factor in the price sensitivity and you will be led to the best restaurants.
The food was pan-Mediterranean with dishes from Turkey and Morocco. The attention of the staff as well as the proprietor made the dining experience very very seamless. Two days later, I’m still patting my back for landing us at a fantastic restaurant in a neighborhood that is rapidly losing its flair for authenticity.
Vegetarian options: Well, honestly, being a generational vegetarian, we know how not to make a fuss. Go through the menu, spot a couple of starters and maybe sides and enjoy them. A nice plate of starters and sides can make a lovely vegetarian meal instead of one entrée. I so much prefer this to eating at a shady “vegan“ restaurant that serves mock meat. Why would I even want to have my food look or taste like meat?!

Nice Israeli brunch spot, food is alright for the price, though service is very welcoming.
It was quite a surprise. When we reached we thought it's not really a Mediterranean restaurant but we stayed and thought of trying. It was quite surprising and the food was really good. We loved it. Their appetizers, kabobs, and entries were too good. We also loved their baklava. Their spicy margarita was also great.
Food and service was very good , we also enjoyed the deserts. A little pricey tho.

Love this neighborhood gem. Michelle, the sever, was incredible and steered me towards the Duck Rice, a newer dish, which was incredible. Great food and wonderful service!! Highly recommend!!
