| - Bringing my mother here was a joy for me, for "every bite reminded me of my childhood". Raised by an Armenian father, the dishes and flavors served were what she was raised on. And they are delicious bites indeed!
White linen dining, a sommelier, and knowledgeable servers serving rustic, Old World food. Elevated and refined, yet the food is not fussy or modern. It is as my mother remembered.
We had reservations, but on a busy Wednesday night, the restaurant was full. We waited a long time to order, both our wine and our food. But once we did, our server was apologetic and attentive, and the food flew right out of the kitchen. Absolutely get the large kibbeh. Bring home all the leftovers. Our server threw in an extra bag of pita for us to take home: I just wish we had ordered double of everything!
