Terrific cocktails, attentive service (except, as seems prevalent everywhere, when it comes time to settle the tab - you’d think it’d be the opposite). Convenient ample parking. Ambiance not the greatest when there are loud customers adjacent, but I put that to “socio-economic entitlement”. (As an aside, one finds this entitlement when driving through Tenafly. Every 4-way stop is a ‘Thunderdome’ experience). Pricey but fine for a special occasion. Food’s not wow but flavorful and well prepared.

It was very popular for a Monday, but I definitely enjoyed the ambience and the food was delicious, we had the dip sampler, the chicken and the short rib; everything was cooked and seasoned well! I’ve also been here for ladies night on Thursday and they have a good happy hour menu and a live DJ, had a great time!

First time here. Nice Mediterranean cuisine. Well prepared. Wait staff was mostly Turkish and was helpful in explaining menu choices and recommendations. Bottles wine choices were marked up a little higher than I thought they should be. But that is not a reason to avoid this Mediterranean gem.
