We waited a long time for this reservation and were not disappointed -- the food was delicious and for the most part we loved it. Still, the fish wrapped in grape leaves was a whole fish with a lot of tiny bones -- while delicious, we found it hard to navigate in the dark and a warning would have helped us order something else. The rice pudding also had lovely flavors and details, but the rice itself was cold and waxy. In all, while we had a really lovely night, part of the beauty of Mediterranean food is its affordability. We loved the restaurant, but the food felt overpriced.
