What GREAT fries! The truffle fries were fabulous! The gyro was very good also, but the fries....I can't say enough about them. My wife had the falafel wrap, which was also very good. The young lady (Ana?) that took care of us today was very friendly and pleasant. We will definitely be going back!

Clean eating! Everything was so fresh and nicely spiced. I had the chicken kabob entree which came with salad, rice and pita. It was delightful. My husband had the Branzino which was so flavorful and beautifully spiced. Our server was very nice and very attentive. Do not pass on the baked goods. The cakes, the Baklava and other Turkish desserts are delicious. If you are just looking for something besides pizza pasta and fried fish, this is a great place to go.

We found this place in passing and were struck by its Mediterranean food offering. It is a small, pleasant and cozy place. Well decorated, simple, comfortable and easily accessible, with a rustic style and elegant appearance. The food: starters of falafel and humus that really surprised us, you can see the care in the preparation, the flavor is very well balanced and they use spices that combine very well to achieve unique flavors. The octopus, although the dish is expensive in relation to the size, is really delicious and worth trying. It is a place that you can enjoy from the moment you enter!

Great spot for Mediterranean/Turkish food! Highly recommend. its unassuming exterior belies its stylish interior. Thanks for the delicious meal and thanks especially to Glen for taking care of me on a busy lunch rush! I recommend the nice patio in sunny Florida if it’s not too hot!

Neat place for Turkish food! I had a iskander plater entree to share as well as the eggplant dip. Both were great. I also had the beef tenderloin and I don’t think the price was really worth the amount of meat you get. Turkish tea and dessert was great! There is also a loyalty system in place which gets you a bit of a discount after a couple visits.

Feta And Kalamata Olive Spread with pita was a great lite starter, while awaiting our shareable Sultan Feast. The service was outstanding. Glen’s recommendations and knowledge was a breath of fresh air. Loved the quiet tucked in scene.

Melt in your mouth food, super delicious & they even have their own bakery! I wanted to try everything! lol, but I had the swordfish & the arugula & beet salad that were both delicious My son had the tenderloins & the lamb chops & he ate it all! He said it was very tasty & the environment is very pleasant! They had a live belly dancer performing, it was spectacular! Definitely try this place, we’ll be back! The staff were all super friendly & helpful! They also gave an outside patio, it definitely is bigger than it looks when you pull up on the inside.
