The service was absolutely perfect. We were given enough time to have our wine and look at the menu and discuss our options. The timing of the appetizer to the main to the dessert was seamless. We really enjoy not having to feel rushed through our meals and actually have a moment to enjoy every bit of our mezze options before the entree. 10/10 will be back and recommending to others!

We went for Valentine’s Day dinner and had delicious food and great service. The music was a bit too loud for a date night atmosphere. Nevertheless, we would absolutely come back for another great meal!

Wonderful meal in every way! The good was outstanding. I had the octopus as one of my 4 choices; it was the most tender octopus that I've had anywhere, hands down! Service was attentive without being hovering. They were very knowledgeable about all of the different courses. Romantic setting.
