    Great meal, great service. We sat in the bar area and could actually hear the people at our table. Their bar area is spacious. Gyros were excellent. The sea bass was excellent. Stuffed chicken was amazing. We couldn’t have been happier with our meal.

    It was generally good. Although the bartender had to cover the tables as well, so the service was significantly lacking. Fortunately, I was with the most beautiful woman in the world and didn’t notice that we hadn’t eaten yet lol.

    We went for the Thanksgiving buffet and it was a lovely afternoon. The servers were quick with anything we needed and were always friendly. They were also helpful - my husband asked for Turkish coffee and the server responded that black coffee was included but there would be an extra charge for Turkish. Totally reasonable and I appreciated not getting a surprise added charge later. The food was solid, especially the cold apps/salads, cig kofte, lentil soup, bread basket, and the two meats made from ground meat. It's tough to prepare food for such a large group, so not surprising that the chicken kebabs were drier than I'd like. I was sad not to see any lamachun available, as it was listed. But that's okay as that's also something that's better when it's piping hot. At no point did anyone indicate that they needed our table, which can be a concern both at buffets and on holidays. We were able to relax between courses and enjoy the holiday as a family. I'd happily return!
