I had dinner with a group of friends and we got to try almost all of the hot mezze and some of the cold appetizers- cheese burak are a must try!! highly recommend ordering family style if you come with a group. Mixed grill was flavorful and cooked perfectly. The owner was super friendly and she made sure everything was to our liking and gave us free dessert (homemade baklava).

Had dinner here a few times and it was great!! Really enjoyed the variety of mezze for appetizers but especially the hummus it is so fresh and creamy and DELICIOUS! The space is really nice and cozy so it's both a great date setting and restaurant to meet with a big group of friends for an amazing time

The grilled meat platter was very juicy. Lamb chops and kebab were cooked to perfection. We also ordered a number of dips but finished them off before taking pics. Highly recommend the hummus it was delectable!!

We found this place by reading the good reviews. It did not dissapoint! Food is amazing. We took 6 appetizers, dessert and drinks - everything was fresh and delicious. The staff and owner went out of their way to accomodate and provide an excellent service. We will come back again for sure to try other food. Place is cozy and not expensive! Highly recommend

I came here today for lunch and I have to say this place is amazing. The waitstaff is so kind and polite and the food and cocktails are fantastic. I had the crab cake appetizer and the salmon as my main. Prices are very reasonable and you get a good portion of food. The overall look of the restaurant is clean and very pretty. Even the outdoor seating looks great as well. I will definitely be back again!

Came here with some friends for brunch and had a wonderful time!! We ordered some breakfast pastries, pita, dips and cheese burak which are my personal favorite. The falafel was crispy and our food was elevated with the atmosphere and attentive staff. Definitely recommend this spot!
