Wonderful meal. We sat at the kitchen counter and enjoyed the spectacle of the staff. The food is the star. We had the Breaking Bread, served with this amazingly fluffy pita, hummus that is smooth and flavorful, olives, a yogurt and a pepper spread. One of the best apps I've enjoyed in quite some time. The lamb dumplings in a tomato sauce was cooked perfectly and had a great balance of flavors. The trout was one of the best items we tried, with couscous, shaved fennel and anchovies. Brilliant! Asparagus with chili crunch and yogurt was a great side. Charred, spicy, cooling. Balanced. And the stacked version of baklava was scrumptious! 100% would go back.
What a beautiful venue is such a stunning area. Although the food was impeccable, the drinks were to true stars. They packed so much punch, hit so many unexpected notes, while all staying incredibly balanced. They have certainly nailed their carbs; the bread was top notch and so fresh. I think if I were to do it again, I’d skip dessert. We tried two dishes; they were good, but did not punch as hard as main dishes and drinks.
Everything about this place is spectacular. Got on the wait list last minute for a Sunday brunch. Showed up 30 minutes later and the host staff found us a spot for 2 at the bar in just a few minutes. Everything, and I do mean everything, here is unique. The food is delicious and we loved the burger. That pita is the best I've ever had. Hands down. Aside from the food, the drinks are unique and creative with some amazing NA drinks I can't wait to buy for my house. Worth a visit and worth trying everything. Can't recommend this place enough! You have to go!
This is my favorite restaurant at the moment. The food is extremely well executed, prepared with great care and dedication. I am delighted with the work of Chef Laura and her team. Everyone is incredibly careful with everything. Chef Laura and her husband are lovely people. I recommend it to everyone.
