We ordered and appetizer. They took too long to serve appetizer, and when they did, the entrée was served right after. Needless to say we had to take appetizer home, otherwise, the entrée would have gotten cold. Too much food served at once. Read more Read less

Nice but smokey

Our server was very patient and good!

The food was lackluster. The french fries seemed like it was fried in days old oil.

Food was dry

Fresh and fast.

Slow service

Great staff. Clean environment

hummus was made from powder, food had no flavor, more Americans or people who can't handle spice.

service of the food was very slow we were there for more than 2 hours waiting on our food.

The food was wonderful for the price -- I will definitely return. The olive oil they use gave everything a lovely flavor... The food was wonderful for the price -- I will definitely return. The olive oil they use gave everything a lovely flavor. Our server was outstanding; attentive, classy, and sincerely helpful. It was a little bit awkward that the restaurant had more employees than customers at peak dinner hours, though. I used to be a restaurant manager, and it might be hard for them to keep such quality servers if they overstaff. (Just a hint, take it or leave it!) Overall, I will definitely recommend this place, and will be back soon! Read more Read less
