    We had a wonderful time dinning here on thanksgiving. Food was fantastic. We got the eggplant appetizer, the butternut squash soup and their signature ground lamb appetizer. The lamb was my least favorite because it was just too gamy for me. I’m middle eastern and eat a lot of ground beef like that but this one just wasn’t one i would ever order again. For dinner i got the bone in fillet which was also wonderful. We had the chocolate baklava and it was delicious. Definitely a great restaurant. I had the Aegean margarita, so delicious.

    My experience at this restaurant was awesome. We receded under a minute. The dinner came out about maybe 20 minutes later with the appetizers after ordering, but it was well worth it. We got the Mezze platter. It had all eight apps in a small portion, so A scoop of every appetizer best way to sample the whole menu for the apps. Shaven Lamb with the sauce was great a entre.
