The smell of freshly baked bread greets you. You pick a protein and your sides. I choose carmelized onion hummus (amazing), lentil salad (good), and saffron chicken kabob (delicious). Highly recommend.

Food was good. Unique concept where you can pick sides and protein. Sides were good. We had pasta, salad and spicy hummus. Pita was good but could have been better. But overall good mediterranean resturant.
