    Stunning interior. The salatim platter was very flavorful and a great appetizer. The chicken kebab was amazing, juicy, and flavorful. The complementary tea was nice. Would 100% dine here again. Great food, great ambiance.

    The food is delicious and the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous. But the three times I have been there the service was subpar and took a long time to get orders in.

    Loved this place! The food and ambience are incredible. Only thing that can improve is the lighting. It’s pretty dark which i understand is for ambience but we could hardly read the menu lol. Other than that, 10/10 loved!

    Don’t take any of the late reservations. 9:30p was the only time we could get a reservation…and by the time they sat us, and finally greeted we were told the kitchen was closing and we had 5min to get everything in. Ambience & food were great, but maybe don’t take late reservations or at least make sure that’s communicated prior.
