Feedback
Great food and service - we are back. Very recommended!
The quality Malik puts in to everything he cooks makes it worth what he charges. He has created a special place by making the dining experience special in every aspect. It is hard to find any fault to the whole experience.
This is a little gem of a restaurant tucked away in an unassuming location off HWY1 in Aptos. Greeted with a lovely glass of bubbly rose’ and seated with a great kitchen view and sweet live piano in the background, we enjoyed a delicious multi course meal of a quality that is hard to find in Santa Cruz. Wine list was simple, but perfectly paired. Foodies, this place is for you! Expensive, yes, but the quality delivers.
Very good food and service. A local strong point for great food carefully prepared.
Week night so not crowded or noisy. Excellent service. Very good food. Nice ambiance.
