The food at this restaurant is exceptional. I highly recommend it and will definitely be coming back. We absolutely loved the tender pan-fried calamari, honey-glazed eggplant chips, and a delightful salad with peas, broad beans, mint, feta, and freekeh. The cheese and spinach croquettes were also fantastic. For dessert, the halva ice cream and perfectly cooked baklava were outstanding. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience.

This restaurant offers a wonderful atmosphere, outstanding service, and a welcoming staff. Mary, you truly do a fantastic job. It's unfortunate that you'll miss Rosemary and her friends so dearly, especially since you have been there quite frequently. The food is exceptional. - Glenis

Disappointing evening. Were “kicked out” because of closing not asked but rudely told to leave. We were told closing was early “because it’s the suburbs”. One diner had to take his drink with him to finish on the way out. Outrageous charge for corkage applied to everyone in party even diners who hadn’t drunk wine. Owner (I assume) was rude and abrupt. One member of our party did not receive meal until 30 minutes after everyone else and only after he had to ask for it. Definitely would not recommend.
