    As I have described in my review for La Fontaine, this restaurant also on Castro St. is a great place for a night out. They have limited draft beer options but their bottled beer offerings feature exclusive beers from Greece, Armenia, Turkey and such other mediterranean countries. They have reasonable options for vegetarians as well and the servers are extremely professional and friendly.

    Food was good but appetizers r just ok. I reserved the top table for valentine's day but they give us a very small table that we didn't have any space. They charged $40 per person for valentine's day but they created the menu that was not worth the money! we couldn't order what we liked! I feel like I've been overcharged !! But at the end they give each lady a rose which was nice.

    The food in general was good. The Brussels sprouts as an appetizer were really good, but the fried calamari were just o.k. I ordered Musaka, and it was good, but I don't think I would order it again. It was our first time at Ephesus and it was a good and a nice experience. I may give it another try, but I think I would favor other options before this one for Mediterranean food. The service was very good and attentive, though.

    I had lunch and it was delicious. The baba ganoush was lemony and the lemon chicken soup was smooth and perfectly seasoned. It’s a lovely restaurant for any meal. I’ve had enjoyable dinners here as well. Always good food and atmosphere.

    Loved the place. Food was excellent. The only thing there could be more beef dishes. A lot of lamb but enough choices of beef.
