Radairis Diaz

Such a great spot! It was cozy and the food was delicious (we only had appetizers ). Their customer service was truly one of a kind. I recommend and will be back.

Bárbara

Great lunch special : delicious spicy sausage lentil soup and a fantastic quinoa chicken salad ! Plus a frozen sangria .. A little bit of autumn with tiny bit of summer:-)

Hannah Nicdao

The octopus mezze dish was amazing!!! Happy hour until 7PM with $7 beer and wine and discounted bites like hummus and babaganoush . Great little cozy place that’s great for catching up with a friend

Geoffroy Bablon

New kid on the block! The ratatouille is fresh. The lamb chops with potato gratin is delicious. Nab the table on the edge of the room and you'll feel like you're sitting outside. Or just sit outside.

Anechka M.

Today’s treat: octopus , feta dip , burger and shepherd salad with tuna . So tasty! The service is excellent too and the place is so cozy .

Alexis Bendjouia

Awesome vibes. Great date spot , intimate , or come to chill with wine and food. Large bottle menu, less by the glass. Spicy feta dip was pretty good. Kind service (look for Charlie)

Ernesto Gutierrez

Consider the octopus appetizer , spicy feta dip and the lamb chops entree. Ambience makes it a perfect place for date night .

Great food and even better service! I came here with a large group for my birthday and the staff was incredibly friendly , patient and accommodating!

Food is good but unbelievably packed. Don’t go if you have claustrophobia. The grilled meat platter is good for 5-6 people. We went for a group dinner with rsvp and they didn’t have table ready

Mehdi Morrani

Best wine and ambiance. Delicious soup and lamb chops ! Highly recommend.

Christian E.

Sandwiches are a great lunch , and they all come with fries . Get the lunch special so you can try the sausage lentil soup .

Brochettes , zucchini pancakes , artichoke dip and the mezze platter ! All delicious!

Carlos Olivieri

Killer atmosphere. Great service. Fantastic service. Mehdi runs a tight ship and the place is still pretty new.

Food was good. Kept bringing out dishes we didn't order, had to remind them of a drink we ordered too. They took the extra plates and drink off the tab which was nice. Maybe I'd go back. Romantic spot
