Description

Tucked in Brooklyn, this relaxed Mediterranean spot serves generous mezze, standout lamb dishes, pitza and baklava, with attentive service, craft cocktails and indoor/outdoor seating on a sunny terrace. Guests praise quick, friendly staff, event-hosting capabilities and complimentary water; portions are plentiful and salads large. Occasional inconsistencies—spotty servers and variable dish execution—are noted, but overall the restaurant charms with lively ambiance, great views and reliable brunch and dinner options for dates, groups and celebrations.

Lots of outdoor seating and saw some people inside too. For two people- we got the lamb sausage, mezze plate, zaatar bread, and baklava- delicious and very filling. Waiters/waitresses were all very nice. I look forward to coming back!

The food was great! Service was good too. Went with a friend and we were seated quickly. The establishment was clean but we opted to sit outdoors. Food came out shortly after we ordered. I got the leg of lamb with some pita. My friend got the vegetable pitza which she enjoyed.

The food here is delicious, and the service is quick. You even get a complimentary large bottle of water! You can choose to sit either indoors or outdoors. The salads are generously sized, and both the chicken and shawarma are incredibly tasty. The staff is friendly and very attentive. I truly enjoyed my meal here.

Pretty mediocre experience. The server came to us immediately and asked what we’d like to order. We told her we’d just sat down and needed more time. Every server seemed pretty ditzy. The ginger ale tasted like canned Schweppes. The beets in the beet salad tasted canned. The hummus was runny. My lamb had no flavor and the chicken shawarma sandwich my partner ordered came out as a plate. Wish the food and service lived up to the rating. Food: 3 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2 Price per person: $30–50
