Great and distinctively flavored food in a nice looking space with great ambiance! Plus the food is not terribly expensive. The two person combo we ordered was less than $50. Not bad at all and it was quite filling. Great food, eyecatching dining space and ambiance...Read More

WOW! Eli and Stephanie were so accommodating. We came in 3 days before our event anticipating 40+ guests and they squeezed us in. The food was excellent, hands down best Mediterranean food I’ve had and they were so understanding and communicative. 10/10 experience!

When my business partner bit into the kebeh that we ordered he made a face of delight that I’ve never seen him make before. I laughed out loud. He said, “This is the best kebeh I’ve ever had” and I said, “I can tell!” ...Read More

I was very pleased with the numerous vegan options on the menu. Their maple syrup Baklava is a must try. Great service and really nice quality food. Also reasonably priced. Street parking available and it is only few blocks from Hollywood.

Delicious food; major bonus points for shawarma served the right way. Garlic sauce is great as is the house hummus. Service was the cherry on top, felt like a guest at a family member's home.
