The decor and atmosphere here is unexpected gorgeous! Definitely a place where you'll want to take someone for a little bit of the 'ooh' factor. The faux stone relief and statues at the entrance really sets the tone that you're entering somewhere exotic. I love the slightly kitschy look!
I was expecting poor service based on the reviews, and while there were a couple of things (had to ask twice for a missing set of utensils), the service was decent. There were so many servers that my dining companions commented on it.
The food was average at best. We loved the flat bread that came in beginning. The Bademjoon Kabab eggplant appetizer was yummy, though I thought there was too much stuffing and not enough eggplant. We tried this yogurt drink and I can't say that I liked it at all. We all tried different kababs - chicken, beef, veal and also a salmon steak. It all came with choices of rice/fries/salad. I would stay away from the fries to be honest. They weren't quite crispy, or limp (like McD fries which I love), but somewhere in between. Portions were large and we all left very stuffed.
