    This is the second time my wife and I have eaten at this restaurant although it is not anywhere close to our home. The Mediterranean food was excellent! Love the gyro! Order the flaming cheese just because it’s so impressive as an hors d’oeuvre. Our waitress was wonderful. She brought a beautiful happy birthday free baklava for us.

    We always have an enjoyable meal at Ansari's. They have a great selection of vegetarian food and alcoholic drinks, and throw together a pretty nice brunch buffet. We'll be back.

    It was very noisy when we arrived; noise abated as we dined. The food was well-prepared, with generous portions, as always

    The music played for the belly dancing was ridiculously loud. No one at the table could hear anything being said to each other. Isn’t it time to end this altogether? Objectifying women is not done these days.

    We enjoyed our visit to Ansari’s. The food and service were very good. Generous portions, affordable. Great option for Mediterranean food. The one off putting thing was that the belly dancer came to each table with a tip basket after her performance. We don’t usually have cash on us and we did not expect this so we found it embarrassing and felt very on the spot. I wish I had known ahead of time that tips would be expected so that I could have come prepared. But also that practice of literally having her stop at every table felt tacky.

    Service was really off. The potato chips served with entrees are usually always good but they were not edible and bitter. Couldn’t even eat them. Water glass had a massive crack through it. Sprite refill took 30 mins. Disappointed.
