You gotta get a pitcher of the St. Germaine-based Elderflower White Sangria . It is delicious, refreshing, and it is surprisingly potent!
A must before going to the greek! Great patio , yummy wine , hummus is xcellent, the pizza pita they serve w kaboob dinner should be an appetizer w hummus . So good. And they are dog friendly !!!
Really want to like this place, with its great terrace and alluring exterior. I just haven't had a great meal here yet.
The Chicken Kebab is my favorite kebab , and the risotto was surprisingly creamy. Espresso Martini is a must. Banana chocolate mousse was okay. Love this place!
I had the beef kebab plate and it was delicious. ????
This building once housed Cap’n Cork liquor store . It is referenced in Beck’s “Que Onda Guero” as being where the new Yanni cassette can be purchased. Cap’n Cork relocated south across Prospect.
Cute patio and good for a stop before going to the Greek theater - but bring a fly swatter as the flies here are very entitled.
Mostly patio ! There’s a vegan menu and great for bringing your dog.
There is so many fresh roses around the place, it smells so good. The patio is very enjoying....
Highly recommend the Hillhurst Organic Omelette with the breakfast potatoes . Perfect hungover brunch .
Get the steamed mussels with the bread to soak the juice in......sooooo good!
Love the Spicy Señorita, great outdoor patio , relaxed ambience .
If you like Cruzer 's pizza , order one here from their vegan menu with an organic cocktail !
Steak au poivre with mashed potatoes and asparagus ...yum! The coffee is also very good.

Look for celebrates
They serve pasta however you ask
Dirty vodka martini - extra dirty - done right. Garlic Daiya fries are perfect.

The owner seems like a tool
Don't order the vegan pizza . It's terrible. Do order the tofu salad . If you want to send something back they still charge you even if waitress suggested menu item.
Octopus tostada, crudités, Brussels sprouts, and focaccia were all fantastic. Gorgeous space - Drew Shannon

Wonderful selection of wines and beers. I've had great luck finding particular/rare bottles of wine here! - Kelly Bone
