Went for lunch with my wife. The ambiance was warming and inviting. We ordered mixed cocktails, all were unique with a Mediterranean flair. We just wish that had some of the classics. Food had great flavor and came out in good time. However, we did find a large hair in our food which brought my rating down a bit.

It was good. Value wasn't there for us, but it for sure had a great vibe. Service was great. Food was good, but kind of let down with the portions and value.

I have been here several times. The food is always outstanding. It was too noisy and we asked to have the music turned down which they did. This is my go to Israeli restaurant. I think it’s way better than Safta

Everything was fresh and flavorful. A couple of our favorite items were the Brussels sprouts and halloumi and panisse. So many layers of flavor! Their fresh baked pita and roti were also delicious and there were a lot of gluten free options including pita. The atmosphere is relaxed and bright. Great happy hour menu too. We will be back!

Everything here was exceptional. This was my second time back here. The food does not disappoint. We arrived before 5pm and were able to order off the happy hour menu. The falafel is a must try 10/10. The hummus was alright, it had good flavor but drowning in a bit more oil than I would have liked 7.5/10. The steak kebab was alright 6/10. I would say that the chicken kebab is much better with better flavor 8/10. The za’atar French fries were very good, great seasoning and flavor 8.9/10. The NY strip with potato was very good 9.5/10 and the braised lamb shoulder was good (but not as good as when I had it before) 8/10. We finished off with the honey spice cake for dessert. All in all it was great meal. The staff were friendly. The restaurant has a good vibe on the inside. I look forward to coming back again soon!
