    Consistent and great food. Been going there since they opened. Lots of the same wait staff and they recognize me immediately. Very much a neighborhood restaurant. Lots of regulars the noise level is just people having fun. It was not too much. Only issue, as with everything on Greenville, is the parking issue.

    The food is always delicious and they are so hospitable! Best hummus in Dallas, highly recommend the dinner for two, and end the night with Turkish coffee.

    Café Izmir is arguably the best Mediterranean restaurant in Dallas. Had my birthday dinner there Monday night, and they made it so much fun. Every dish was outstanding. Our server was amazing- gave great recommendations. My favorite Hummus in Dallas, probably the country. Lamb Chops seasoned and cooked to perfection. I don't usually rave about vegetables, but I do here. The Asparagus was also as close to perfect as you can get. Thank you for a great evening.

    WONDERFUL experience here for an anniversary dinner. Staff payed attention to special requests, and the service was relaxed, almost as if we were eating somewhere in the Mediterranean. Food was well-prepared and expertly seasoned; even had a few twists on standards that were fun to try. Portions are manageable for the tapas plates, but come hungry, for sure!

    One of Dallas’ best restaurants, a hidden gem. We are foodies and while different cuisine, the food quality is similar to Uchi, Georgie, and other hot spots. Quaint, family-owned authenticity. Casual but romantic. Great date spot.
