    The Mystique Gourmet Pasta was really good! If you are an artichoke, pesto and fried tomato fan, you should order this ;)

    Overall a great food place. The specials usually rock. Try the hummus & meat app. The ricotta pancakes keep me coming back for brunch.

    I really like this place but God forbid you sit near the door on a cold night. The way the door swings open and STAYS open...you might as well be eating outside

    I'm not sure which was better, the food or the service! Its owner, Sam, has created a fantastic combination of quality & comfort. While their Sangria is delicious, it's their crepes I need to try yet.

    Generous portions, lots of meat. Loved the bacon-wrapped stuffed chicken. Pomegranite chicken was a bit too sweet/sour for me. Overall a good meal of Moroccan flavors.

    Non effort on service. Tool for ever to get our orders in, get served and the toasts came after we we’re finished and they were cold, poached eggs were overcooked. The restaurant was only half full.
