This place is so good that I'm willing to make the occasional drive ( 45 mins) for it. Everything was on point. The service, the... pita bread, the drinks and the food. Took a to-go plate because for once I knew I would finish it later. Although the place ishuge, I feel like they divide the ratio of servers per tables pretty well. It's that or they have well experience servers who dotheir job efficiently. Maybe a combination of both? Lot of parking and other areas to go to after eating. Great location andatmosphere. Read more
Wow. The food is top notch here. Quality of the meat is one of the best for Mediterranean food. We got the beef shawarma, the... lamb kebab, and the vegetarian plate. We were full and satisfied. The service is also VERY impressive and wonderful. There ishappy hour menu too. Read more
I can't say enough good things about this place the staff is very attentive. We went for brunch recently and the endless mimosas... really were endless and they filled them very consistently. Happy hour is throughout the entire week and it's not cheap food andcheap drinks in the sense that they are not worth having or not tasty. Everything that is offered during happy hour is reallygood. The place is casual but it can also be fancy enough for a date night or a group of people looking to have a niceevening. Last time my boyfriend had the lamb shank which he loved and I had the shrimp pesto which is very delicious. Read more

I came out here with 3 other girlfriends surprising one of them for her birthday. The birthday girl wanted mediterranean but... with a nice ambiance, so I found this little gem as a mid point for the others we were meeting. The restaurant is located by acorner and has large outdoor seating. We made it just in time with 1hr left for happy hour that ends at 7pm. This was on aThursday night that we dined in. They allowed us to order multiple drinks per person, taking advantage of the happy hourcocktails. We actually ordered a tremendous amount of food and everything was delicious. The chicken/salmon kabob was a favoriteas well as the cheese rolls! The food, the service, the happy hour was all worth the drive from north Hollywood and Pasadena! Read more
Went here for my parents anniversary, and on a Saturday night even with a reservation we had to wait 10-20 minutes. Inside... seating is highly limited but outdoor options are plenty and comfortable. Our service was quick polite and personable, givingAshley a shout out here. I highly recommend their calamari for an appetizer, it is one of the best I've had yet. For the maincourse we had the family platter and for 5 people it was more than enough. A great variety and all the meats cooked toperfection, the lamb was most enticing to me and if you're Ala Carte ordering I suggest the lamb skewers. And I would go herejust for their baklava.
