| - I've read over some of the reviews, and I feel like this place is getting a beating by my fellow yelpers.
I wouldn't say I'm a Mediterranean food connoisseur, but I know good food.
This place has good food.
My fiancé and I stumbled in there for dinner on Christmas day. We had celebrated with family on Christmas Eve and all day Christmas and we wanted to "get away" for some "us" time. We walked in and were seated right away. They were slow because EVERYTHING in Summerlin was closed that day and people probably figured they were too. I was surprised that they had a HUGE FULL bar, a karaoke stage, dance floor, huge projection tv, and the blue lighting made the place seem fun and festive. I could definitely see a birthday party there.
Anyways, we ordered the hummus and pita, lamb shank plate, and lamb gyro. EVERYTHING was good. the hummus, the pita (which we got more of at no charge), the lamb, the GYRO was amazing, and the rice. Dang that rice was good!
I am giving them 5 stars because the food was AWESOME. Yes, the service could probably be better (waitress had to be reminded of things, but was SUPER nice), but we're talking $11-$17 meals. It's not an arm and a leg ...and you're getting generous portions in a fun environment with relatively nice service. So, I would gladly, GLADLY have the "okay" service and awesome food for that price.
After all, it's all about the food isn't it? :)
