- SShilpaNashville •3 reviews5.0Dined todayWhat a good dinner experience! The food, the ambiance, service -everything. The host was very warm and welcoming which actually kick-starts your dinner experience on a good note. Everything we tried on the menu was delicious and so flavorful. Their lamb is really out of this world. Wine list (bottle and by the glass) is big and spans a range of $$ which gives options. Desserts were great too and different than what we’ve tried (same type). It’s a bit on the expansive side. Overall, an amazing dinner experience and will def go back again.More infoEvviaPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Palo Alto•4.8
- LLoriSan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWow, what an incredible experience! It was our first time here, and we were celebrating my guy's birthday. Honestly, I’m not usually into Greek food and thought Turkish cuisine might be pretty similar, so I was a bit skeptical going in. But let me tell you, I was absolutely blown away! The flavors were a delightful surprise, and I loved every bite! The service was top-notch, with fantastic recommendations that our whole group raved about. And those cocktails? Just as delicious as the food! The ambiance was electrifying, setting the perfect mood for our celebration. I can't wait to go back for another unforgettable meal!More infoMeyhouse Palo AltoPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Palo Alto•4.8
