Sharon BSeptember 3, 2012Ask for Billy the waiter he's great! The food was awesome. The Brussel sprouts are to die for.
Mark RussoJune 30, 2010Food is great. Loved it. Had some middle eastern Egg Benedict. Yummy! One down side my dish came out 10 after my friends - not so good, but got a 20 discount.
chi shiJanuary 29, 2011go with a bunch of ppl so you can taste more appetizers. Everything was so good. Didn't really enjoy arak (licorice flavored liquor)
Yoriko OkamotoApril 15, 2018The food was really good, but servers' attitudes were not good. They're not welcome for us, so I was very disappointed. Hopefully, their atmosphere will be better next time.
Amazing happy hour with delicious cocktails. Fresh meadow is very fresh!
Darryl deLeonJanuary 28, 2013Brussels sprouts! Brussels sprouts ! Brussels sprouts! Amazeballs! Literally!
The best creamiest magic yogurt in the world :)
Fallon RelaySeptember 14, 2012<3 the Brussels sprouts. You can order the chicken kebab with white meat only (if that's your thing).
My favorite restaurant in the city...everything is good, but try the duck shwarma

Fanny ChanApril 27, 2012Exceptional customer service, even in the bathrooms. Food was pristine if you're into Mediterranean
KMASHJanuary 16, 2016I wasn't expecting it to look like Arabic Restaurant. It is more like a fancy bar or hotel lobby.
