Great Mediterranean food, but it is usually empty

Excellent meat dishes and baba ganoush and hummus, they did an excellent job preparing a large catered meal also.

Service was very good .
We ate Turkish kebabs , it was really nice.

The food is EXCELLENT!!!!! Flavorful, healthy, fresh, and presented well. The meal is also presented quickly. The atmosphere is very casual and relax. I enjoyed dinning outdoors.

The staff is very friendly. However, the only reasons why I have rated them 4 stars oppose to 5 is because I was there on a date. We were having an intimate and engaging conversation while eating our meal. Which could easily be observed by how were engaged with one another. Body language, direct eye contact etc.

However, about every 3 minutes our conversation was interrupted by a staff member to ask if we were alright? Do we need anything? Or for small talk.. I know they were being friendly but dude...they were totally disturbing the vibe. I tried to politely tell them they are doing an excellent job and if we needed anything we will call them. But they did't seem to get it. And continued to interrupt our conversation and laughter.

Another thing....they kept coming over filling our glass with water even when we said we were fine. And just took 1 sip from the glass.
Besides the constant interruption the waitstaff reached across our plate of food to pour the water oppose to simply walking to the other side of the table which was closer to the glass to pour.

In conclusion. I would highly recommend this restaurant because of the cleanliness, excellent food, great location, cool relaxing atmosphere, Decent price. Friendly staff that means well. The issues with the staff can be quickly resolved with proper training from management.

Great spot to dine at with friends, family, co-workers to have a casual conversation.But not recommended for a date. Tooo many annoying interruptions. It will most likely kill the mood and memories you are trying to create.

Terrible wait staff! Food isn't all that great. Powder mash potatoes eghhh! What turned me off the most was being given a service charge on my bill. In other words they decided for me how much I had to tip them. While the people at the next table near us did not get a service charge. I cannot think of any reason what the thinking behind the decision was to put in the service charge to our bill. Other than maybe financial discrimination perhaps. Because when I asked the waiter Ahmed why it was added he explained it is added to everyone's bill when it obviously is not.
