The food was bland. We ordered the lamb shank. While the meat was really soft and buttery, the meat and the rice were bland and spiceless. Basically just a chunk of meat and rice.

What delicious food! If you want to try authentic Mediterranean food, come here and enjoy this family restaurant... Come back soon??️
Looking for a delicious Mediterranean meal? Step into this charming little restaurant. We chose to start with the mezze platter and there is a special mention needed for their bread, which is fresh out of the oven. The entrees include flavor packed thick stews and delicious lamb! It was so good we didn't have a chance to take pictures of it. Great date spot but also family friendly. The restaurant has this warm, friendly ambience - and is so welcoming. The service is exceptional! We are fortunate to have been served by Elaine a few times - she was incredibly warm, always thoughtful in her suggestions and elevates the meal. She always goes above and beyond!
Incredible!!! The food, the ambience, the staff, our server were all amazing! Very attentive and it was a lovely experience! So glad we took our family visiting from out of town. It really was really one of the highlights of the day!
We are visiting from out of state and decided to go for some Mediterranean food recommendation from my cousin. She impressed us with this amazing salad and chicken with rice. Super tasty and full of flavor. Ishmael brought our food out right away was super helpful and quick!

I don't eat out a lot because of dietary restrictions, but my family was planning to eat at Marlaina's prior to a concert. I emailed the owners, Jackie and Musa, asking if it would be possible for them to adjust a menu item for me and they went over and above to accommodate my needs. They did an entirely different marinade for the salmon (which was delicious) and were very gracious about it. They checked in with our group several times to make sure everything was to our liking! Truly wonderful humans and delicious food. I highly recommend!

This was my first time dining here. They bake their own pita bread, which tasted so good with the hummas plate.The food was excellent. Service was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is a nic esmaller dining room that feels warm and welcoming and authentic.
