in the last weekFood was really delicious overall. The clam chowder, almond-crusted halibut, chicken kababs, and baklava all stood out and tasted excellent. The grilled shrimp was good, though it could have been a bit juicier. Service could be improved. We were a table of six and received only one basket of bread, while smaller tables of two or four were served two baskets. The restaurant was also very crowded, so getting the server’s attention in the tight space was difficult. That said, once they came over, they were attentive and took care of our needs. The ambience is more casual than fine dining tightly packed and busy.

in the last weekFantastic food, especially the pastas. We loved the lasagna, ravioli, and chicken pasta. The lamb with side potatoes were decadent and buttery. Friendly people and good vibes. If I had to give a critical take, maybe the tables were a bit small tight together, but it also adds to the tight homey feels. It’s a busy place in a busy area so would recommend getting a reservation.
