    Every dish (BABA GHANNOUGE, HALLOUMI PIDE, TURKISH STYLE PASTIRMA, SMOKED BEET SALATA, SEA SCALLOPS, GARIDES ME ANITHO, KOFTE KEBAB, HUNKAR BEGENDI) that we tried was devine! The spanakopita we ordered had way too much salt and when I provided the feedback to our server, he was not only kind enough to share the information with the chef, he did not charge us. In addition they gave us 4 complimentary desserts. We probably would not have tried dessert this time due to how full we were. And that would have been a missed opportunity!!! The desserts, especially the Greek yogurt with apricots (I don’t even like Greek yogurt), by far, was one of the best desserts I have ever had!

    One of the best restaurants I have been to lately. The balance of flavors in all of their dishes is superb. Saltiness, acidity, spice… all create a beautiful harmony. The cod salad was out of this world. Would go again and again.
