We were greeted by a wonderful young lady who happened to also be our server. We were a group of 5 guys visiting from another state and craving some middle eastern food. This place did not disappoint. Excellent service, apps and main dishes. The food was portioned and priced perfectly. It also served one of the best Turkish coffees we have had.

Wow!! This spot is so well decorated and the food is incredible! We loved the baked feta and goat cheese! The bread is so thin, delicious and covered in delightful spices. Their house made sodas were a favorite as well. They also take tap to pay which was lucky for me! I forgot my wallet!

Would recommend. Stopped by for a late lunch after spotting a lamb chop option on the menu. Their lunch players are excellent and more than enough for a simple stop. The saffron rice was delicious and the lamb charred but juicy, great to bite into. The house salad is fantastic as well, alongside their smooth hummus setup.

A great new addition to the magazine st corridor! The menu is straightforward and varied. The hummus is exceptional and in my view better than both Shaya and Saba. The Saj bread is more akin to a light naan and a more flavorful and useful option than a traditional puffy pita. They are still working on hiring additional staff so the service may be a little slower but it’s absolutely worth it!

So delicious! The food was flavorful and fresh! The staff was super nice! It’s BYOB! So bring your favorite bottle of wine. Cute for a date night or a nice dinner with friends! I can’t wait to go back!

It’s a nice little place with a relaxed vibe. Baked Feta is quite good, we liked their Paella and Hummus too. Loved their Saj bread, more like a paratha(Indian flat bread). But I find their Turkish coffee sweet to my taste.

Very nice ambience and decent food. Small but diverse menu and tasty options. Love everything! As a Turk I just wanna advise them to use more garlic and lemon in their hummus(just a friendly advise). Best Mediterranean Restaurant in Garden District. Will definitely visit again.
