Terrific Mediterranean/Persian food in a comfortable atmosphere. Service was friendly, helpful with explaining the unknowns, and prompt. We sat outside, the location is closer to the lake, so dress appropriately for the weather. Inside is clean, a bit dated, but who cares as long as the food and service are great. I'll be back for sure! App: hummus creamy, awesome! Soup: Lentil it's vegan, but not a concern of mine. So good! Dinners split with my wife: Red Snapper, whole Awesome!

Wow, what a gem! We were visiting relatives near here and had taken the train in from Chicago. We were looking for a good place to eat and we love Mediterranean food, so we decided to give this restaurant a try. Again, wow! We live in South Florida and have access to several Mediterranean restaurants in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale that we've eaten at; this place is as good as the best and is better than several. The staff is very polite and professional, and the owner is a delight to talk to. (For us the mark of a good restaurant is when the owner/manager walks the floor and actually speaks with the customers to see how the dining experience was) If you like Mediterranean food you have to give...
Both the food and service were wonderful. The appetizers and entrees we tried were all delicious. We had trouble selecting among the wide variety of items on the menu, so we can't wait to go back and try some other dishes. The portions were sizeable, so we're looking forward to enjoying some great leftovers. The waiter was very attentive, and even the chef stopped by to ask how we were enjoying the meal. We definitely plan to go back.
This was the worst food I have ever had. The meal was absolutely inedible. The meat (lamb?) was terrible. I frequent Pita Inn and Kabul House, and this restaurant is not even close to their level. We ended up throwing out the food and ordering Chinese instead. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this place. It's worth spending an extra 20 minutes driving to Pita Inn instead.

The food was ICE cold and the fish was Unedited!Worse, was the way the staff acted, very defensive! The table beside us sent all five dishes back. This isn't the quality of the previous owner: he served fabulous food and service.
The food at this restaurant is fantastic! I got takeout for a family dinner and everything was incredibly delicious!
Pita bread served in a soiled napkin. Lettuce in salad was somewhat brown liking old. We would not go back.
