I started with the "Birds of Paradise" cocktail, which, while not bad, didn’t stand out I wouldn’t have guessed it had pineapple juice if I hadn’t read the menu. My friend ordered the "Marrakesh Garden" and absolutely loved it, calling it one of the best cocktails she’s had in a while. For the main course, I had the lamb shoulder. The waiter mentioned it was meant for two people, and that was accurate especially when paired with a side dish. The meat was tender, and the presentation was well done. My friend chose the short rib kebab, which unfortunately didn’t meet expectations, the meat lacked flavor and seemed poorly marinated, though the dish’s presentation was the highlight. We shared a side of fries, but they were extremely thin and dry. I did enjoy the bread, though it could have been more flavorful. Overall, the experience felt average, and considering the price point, there are definitely better options out there in terms of quality.

The food is normally great, but they changed their desert menu, which is a real disappointment!

This is one of my all time favourite restaurents in Toronto and only a short walk from my residence. The food is beyond divine...especially the Crispy Shrimp and the Tomato & Feta Salad. For dessert our wonderful waiter recommended the Saffron dish which we will definately order upon our next visit!!! The only serious complaint I have is with the choice of music...so much effort is put into presenting authentic Eastern Mediterranean Cusine and a decor to enjoy it in yet no effort is made to ensure the music compliaments and adds to the Mediterranean experience!!! Shameful!!!

Food is outstanding but overpriced. The air wasn’t working and we couldn’t get out of there fast enough! Shame. Will cross this one off my list.

Good evening Lesley, thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. I apologize with the extreme heat and humudity over recent days, our system had a hard time keeping up. If you could kindly reach out to me via our restaurant e-mail I would love the opportunity to chat with you. While our system was working, just not well, you'll be glad to know we made some minor adjustments which have made significant improvements to the air flow. Thanks again for your feedback and have a great long weekend! Peter (GM)

Pros: * Classy ambiance and elegant setting * Short rib was incredibly tender and flavorful — a highlight Cons: * Music volume slightly high; lowering it by ~10% would improve conversation comfort Overall: * a great dining experience
