“This was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. I don’t have anything bad to say. We ordered 75% of the menu, both desserts… different cocktails, ALL of it was astounding.

Our highlights were the short rib, tuna tartare, ricotta & honey, the BAKLAVA. But honestly, there probably isn’t one bad item on this menu.

It was absolutely incredible, fresh, flavorful, and delicious. Our server Alex was so kind and fun, we had THE BEST, time and meal. We live in Columbus and we will certainly be back, It may seem extreme, but it’s worth the drive.“

The Mezze Board was fantastic with all of the Mediterranean dips and veggies , The Shrimp Cossoult is to die for . The braised lamb /risotta/feta explodes with every bite. The best of all is that it was our first time dining and and I felt like family with the service from Nimo and Bryce , Coming back next week for the Swordfish . 6 stars !!!!!“

“I love this restaurant. The food is fresh and the portions are huge. I don’t like ordering salads when I go out to restaurants because they are generally small and boring but not here! I beg you to never order another salad at Panera until you try this place. I also love the lemon chicken soup and beef gyro. The cookies and baklava are also very good“

I ordered the Ali Baba Grill Mix 3 so I could try a few things at once. The food was excellent! Really high quality. Well-seasoned and the meat wasn’t dry at all which can sometimes happen with kebab meats at other places. I will be returning for sure!“
