    Loved the whipped feta, short rib and salmon skewers. Didn't love the staff advertising promotions and then dropping a coupon on the table.

    Food and ambience was great. Service was good, but I wish my waitress would come by the table and refill waters. Service could’ve been a little bit better. But overall, everyone was polite and nice

    The lamb and beef kebabs were just meatballs not very good. The rice was sooo lemony very hard to enjoy. The only delicious food we tried at today's visit was the hummus. You can't order from the happy hour if you are sat at a table so we didn't get to enjoy more choices.

    There is no more beautiful patio in Austin. Ashley was our server and had the perfect touch. Ordering an assortment of items for everyone to nibble from along with a good bottle of wine makes for a great Sunday afternoon. Our favorite place.
