    We had a great time. I had the gyro and Hubby had the Wings. All was delicious. The waiter was attentive and efficient. Happy hour prices are really good!

    Definitely a step above a typical shawarma / gyro place with a full menu of Mediterranean dishes. It is also weirdly enough a local watering hole with an extensive beer and cocktail menu and a lot of folks hanging out and playing pull tabs. I would recommend making a family style meal of the many small plates available so that you can try a little bit of everything. If you are already familiar with the mezza table, the food is solid and a fairly basic representation of the cuisine. There are certainly more authentic/gourmet places to eat, but probably not at anywhere near the very modest price point of this establishment. For two of us with a drink each and a sampler platter to split (which was perfect for two modest appetites) we walked away for 40 bucks, which is hard to do for a sit-down meal these days. . The atmosphere is a bar, and not particularly romantic or a great place for a quiet conversation. It is a good place to get together with a bunch of people.

    We are regulars at Ansari's. It is our preferred place to hang out after our Friday night volleyball games. Beer selection is always new and interesting. There are great options for food. Late Happy Hour is a favorite of ours. They are always accommodating to our group size, which could be 4 people up to 15. They know what our preferred items are, and the staff are able to offer suggestions of new things to try based on what each person likes. Some weeks are loud and packed, and others like last night were quiet.

    The quality of the food and service was outstanding. We also enjoyed watching the dancer, who used scarves, a sword and finger cymbals during her routine.

    Food was fantastic and really a great menu with many options. Loved it. Our server was great. There was no live entertainment at the time/day we went so the noise level was quite low and we could have easy conversation.

    Everything everybody ordered was excellent. The steak bites, cilantro jalapeño hummus, and Greek salad were my favorite. There’s no question as to why this place has been open so long, made it through COVID and a recession. Large portions for a decent price. Go here, you will not regret it.
