    AMAZING EXPERIENCE! The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful and very clean. Our Waiter NATHAN was very welcoming with incredible suggestions that were truly delicious. The food was very clean and fresh from the salads to the sweet potato latkes. The brisket is not super spicy just for taste and flavor. The honey cake was made in house and tasteful. Be prepared for expensive prices but satisfying food. Everything is shareable and for lunch it’s a good choice.

    We ordered 4 small plates for the table of three women (one was hummus appetizer). None of the food was amazing. It was good.
