Although I cannot speak to authenticity, I can speak to deliciousness. I highly recommend the Raki plate, especially the ispanakli borek, a spinach pastry--amazing! The four stars are due simply to service, which was unfortunately unattentive (almost to the point of avoidance). Definitely don't let that deter you though, because the food really was fantastic. And, ultimately, that's what we were looking for. This is a great place to try something new and be social with friends.
