    Restaurant is super cramped. Can’t even walk between tables. Waitress was super apathetic as were the hostesses. The bus boys were great and saved the experience. Also don’t appreciate the BS ‘ the chef wants you to put in the whole order at once nonsense’. A scam to rush you out of there and to over order. Been here many times before but this will probably be our last. Don’t like greedy and unappreciative restaurants.

    Great brunch! Middle eastern dishes that everyone liked. I have never seen my family scarf up cauliflower so fast. It was delicious. Egg dishes were all excellent too. Beautiful room and attentive service.

    The food is incredibly over-salted, and didn't taste like it was fresh. Grilled octopus seems like it was pre-cooked/packaged and just reheated (gelatinous/rubbery). Greek salads are typically on the salty side given the feta, but this was like a plate of salt with vinegar poured on top. $38 for grilled market vegetables that had one single brussel sprout and the whole dish was drizzled in zig-zags with a foul tasting tahini sauce. We said we didn't want anything wrapped up, they did anyway, we threw in the corner trash. Very very disappointed in the whole experience, will never return.

    Food is always good and service is wonderful. Sometimes it gets very loud and tables are quite close to each other
