Came here for my husband birthday on a Saturday night and we enjoyed ourselves, so it's a win with an infant at home, happy getting a babysitter was worth it!
We were seated on the second floor, corner table by the kitchen, gave us a good view of the restaurant to people watch. The crowd was a little bit older than expected. Vibe was good and background music was great. Server was attentive, until near the end, when a larger party was seated beside us.
Drinks: hubby got a on tap negroni, and while the other cocktails looked interesting, I went with a virgin garoub, which was syrupy, but nice. He also got two glasses of white wine.
Food:
Beets appetizer - was really a labneh (house made yogurt with honey) with a sprinkling of beets. But the labneh and bread was great on its own.
Brussels spouts - with haloumi (one of my faves), was a pleasant side
Majedra rice - awesome. You have to get a rice, any rice.
Branzino fish - the most expensive item, but most disappointing. Wrapped in grape leaves, but was relatively bland. The eggplants topping was the best part though.
It was more than enough for the two of us, so we actually skipped dessert, but each got an herbal tea, which was served in nice Turkish glasses and was a nice finish.
Total bill before tip was $150. We would return to try out more small plates and sides.
