How have I never heard about this place until last night? My usual go-to for Mediterranean food was Mad Greek and since they closed down, I have tried a few places in the hopes that I would find one to fill the gaping hole that Mad Greek left (lol)
My boyfriend has gone here before with his parents but failed to mention just how good it is here. Last night he said we should eat dinner here so thankfully it's about a 5 minute drive from my house, I believe this location is in a complex on Flamingo/Rainbow beside a hookah/vape shop.
There's a wide parking lot in front of the restaurant so don't worry about finding a spot. Upon entering, the first thing I noticed was that there was live music to my right. An older man with a piano was playing and singing in another language. At first glance this place looks like it could be or was also a ballroom. It's a wide open space with no counters or cash registers or anything that would indicate this is a restaraunt.
Tons of tables, tons of people. Compared to the almost always empty Mad Greek (and I loved Mad Greek) I had high hopes that this was going to really raise the bar for me. I brought in my service dog and was very pleased when there were no questions asked, aside from the expected staring from other patrons.
Well lit, simple decorations on the wall, music as we eat... Nice! I searched through their menu and to be honest, I was so hungry I really didn't focus too much on anything other than the words "SALMON SHISH KABOB" because, SALMON?! I love Salmon and I've never been to a Mediterranean restaurant that served Salmon, so obviously guess what I ordered? My boyfriend ordered the chicken Shish kabob. Our order took awhile to arrive, assuming that the chicken and salmon take longer, and the only reason I noticed it was taking longer was because people who had arrived after us had received their food first.
I didn't mind, because as soon as my glorious plate was placed in front of me, I couldn't think of anything else. It's a really large plate of food for the price. Same for my boyfriend's plate. The salmon and the rice almost melt like butter in your mouth, I couldn't stop eating! The salad was delicious although I could care less about the pepper and the roasted tomato.
Naturally I couldn't finish my food, although I would if I could! We were given to-go containers to pack the rest, but I will definitely be coming back and bringing some friends along with me! I have finally found my go to spot; you guys will be seeing me quite often ;D
