• Best hummus with mushrooms (I could bathe in this stuff) and my first time trying lamb tartare!

• Trendy spot with delicious, steamy pita bread. The labnah with fried cauliflower and grilled octopus are winners.

• Order everything..food is excellent and they have some fun cocktails too. Great place though a bit pretentious at times..they open at 5, so if you have early reservations..all food is put in at once

• I highly recommend lamb or beef tartare, grilled octopus, lamb chops, and cardamom affogato. You can skip the brown butter cake, and Moroccan baked eggs.

• The cardamom ice cream affogato tastes like ras malai as it melts into the coffee- so good

  by sheela t.

  
  

• Start with the shalosh- a trip of Mediterranean spreads and pita. The pumpkin carrot and housemade labneh are terrific. And a Turkish delight

  by sheela t.

  
  

• The grilled octopus is a religious experience.
