    The service was very friendly, we wanted some time to talk before ordering food. She got and brought our drink order and checked in periodically until we were ready to order. She continued to check if we needed anything until we were finished. The burgers and grilled cheese were excellent.

    Ate here with friends and family. It’s new at this location and not very busy yet. My husband and I really enjoyed the food in northern Greece and Anatolia when we visited there last spring. This is described as central Asian food on their website and the meat stews on the menu were similar to dishes we had in those regions. There were a lot of menu choices including stroganoff and perogies. Large tables are good for groups. I would definitely go back. We went to a movie after and the location is convenient with lots of parking nearby.
