This quaint, charming restaurant gets my vote for the most awkward, slow as molasses service ever. They are seriously understaffed. I'm guessing one of the servers called out for whatever reason but one server and one hostess or busser for the whole restaurant on a weekend?! It took forever for everything. Good thing we didn't have plans after dinner.
We went with the four course meal for two for $40 which includes soup or salad, one appetizer, two dinners, and one dessert. You also get complimentary pita bread and a thyme and olive oil dip. The food was not something I would come back for. I didn't like their lentil soup. I only enjoyed the baba ghanoush. Their signature dish, Farooj (baked chicken) was cooked well with the garlic, citrus juices but it just didn't do anything for me. It wasn't terrible and it wasn't out of this world. My husband liked their baklava.
The server was visibly overwhelmed by all the tables and people kept trickling in. The hostess or busser wasn't much help. She would just tell the server someone needed her instead of asking us what we wanted.
The whole thing was a trainwreck to witness. The two employees arguing with each other and the expected mishaps that can occur when you're understaffed. I'm not sure if I'll be back. Most likely not.
