   Amazing service, amazing food! We loved the hummus, the Brussels sprouts, the pepper spread; a refined journey through Greece, Lebanon and Turkey!

   Visiting for the week and booked a table for an early dinner with family from Maryland who drove in for the day. They were in delayed in traffic and arrived 20 minutes later. We were then told that we had be done by 6pm because they needed the table. I understand restaurants need to turn tables, but 90 minutes at a place like this seems stingy. The staff made arrangements to move us which was appreciated but the whole thing just made for an unpleasant experience, especially since the first waitress was incredibly rude to us after we moved tables - seriously unprofessional and immature. I really expected better.

   Have dined several times and always found the food excellent. However it is a popular spot in a busy area and service can suffer as a result.

   Extremely loud and crowded. Arrived for 730 reservation at 725 and were seated at 750 after spending the time being jostled by staff due to poor space and watching others who arrived later be seated. Staff is overworked and inattentive as a result. Looks like the goal is to simply churn out high volume and money. The food was well prepared but everything else really a disaster for a higher end restaurant.

    The food was excellent!! Service was ok but they were very busy. It was loud and cramped. The tables, upstairs especially, were so close together it was hard to get in and out of your seats. The outdoor seating looked really nice but we made reservations a month in advance so we didn’t know the weather. I would definitely recommend it!
