| - Hadn't been here in quite a while and could tell immediately that the restaurant was under new management from both the looks of it and of the folks running it. We were the only ones in the restaurant, ; we sat out on front patio which is new, apparently. The inside was changed a bit, incorporating couches at an attempt to increase the ambiance. It's a nice start, makes things cozier--I like it.
The owner and his chef waited on us, and they were very attentive, friendly and accommodating. They brought us surprise lentil soups, after we had munched on our hummus for a bit. Hummus was very tasty and garlicky, a bit chunkier than I'm used to, but delish. The pita bread was SUPERB, fresh, warm and certainly homemade. My husband ordered the lamb shank and said it was very tasty. My Greek salad with gyro meat was fabulous, rivaling any I've had, and both of our meals were so large we ate less than 2/3 of them (granted, we'd eaten quite a bit already between the hummus and pita and (requested) cucumbers and the lentil soup). We felt we got a very good value for our money.
We chatted with the owner and the chef a bit and enjoyed them immensely. Apparently, Chef H (who had a restaurant in Gilbert previously, Chef H Restaurant and Grill) was very recently hired and is a stickler for fresh ingredients and is working help turn things around there.
We really our enjoyed our meals and of course the delicious baklava at the end. We will be back!! Give it another try if you haven't been very recently or a new try if you've never been.
