Pretty disappointed based on some glowing reviews of the food. (With respect to service, it is definitely a good idea to call ahead to make sure the kitchen will be open. They say they're open until 9 but the kitchen clearly closes at 8 on slower nights, so you'll be SOL if you show up a minute past then.) The food was incredibly bland; didn't expect to have to throw a ton of talk and pepper into a couscous dish, but it didn't seem to have any herbs or other seasoning. The same was true of other appetizers. Wouldn't return.
