This was our first time eating there. We were told when we were seated that there was a "sharing" fee of $8 on top of entrée if you shared it if you didn't order an appetizer. This was a little wierd and confusing. We were a little put off by it. But we got an appetizer and an entrée we got the meat grape leaves as an appetizer, honestly it was too meaty. I love stuffed grape leaves but the menu said vegetarian and I am used to a lot of rice with a little lamb for flavor. The entrée was the Shish Combo, the lamb was so good, it was one of best lamb kabobs I have ever had, to be sure, the chicken kabob was also Very good, it is very special when you can get the chicken fully cooked and still moist and tender, seasoned to perfection. The meat kaftan kabob was extremely flavorful. The grilled vegetables were totally worth the $1 upcharge. Would have probably given a 5 star if it weren't for the "sharing" fee. It is like if you are not big eaters like my wife and I, you are penalized. Just charge more for your big entrées. Maybe we will get food to go. Haha.

I’m usually the one giving 5 star reviews, but not here. Overall 3 star rating for, atmosphere & food was outstanding! Only concern was the service. We had a 5:30 reservation. For the appetizers We got falafel, bread and hummus. All was very good - we got this food right away. Now for the entrées We waited roughly 90 mins - I believe our waitress didn’t put in our order! Then she realized overtime we didn’t have food. We had a 5:30 reservation, I had to end up leaving to take my kids home to bed cause they were getting tired. Probably a few minutes after I left my fam got their dinner. I ended up eating my dinner at home, it was very good and flavorful! A few of us ordered salads that we wanted with the meals, but they ended up coming out roughly an hour after we ordered, so random. Simply our orders were all messed up and quite disappointing. Don’t know if we’ll return, but the food overall was delicious.

I had read reviews in Nextdoor, a community newsletter so we decided to try it with neighbors. On a Thursday night, the place was packed. It is a new Mediterranean restaurant from Michigan with another location in Coral Springs. Huge menu. No bar or wine list so you can bring your on wine without a corkage fee. Started with the Starter Combo, A Combo Pleasing to Everyone: Hommous, Baba Ghannooj and Tabbouli. Served with small pitas, very good. For mains, I opted for the Lamb Kabobs, 2 Skewers of lamb marinated and grilled. Ordered medium and it came out well done , also lacking taste and flavor. My wife selected the Mousaka, eggplant , baked with fresh tomatoes, onions, green peppers, garlic and seasonings. Not the Greek style but they said an Egyptian style. Both dinners come with a choice of 2 sides, soup or salad. My wife chose the Chicken Vegetable Soup and I got the salad, not descript. For an upcharge you can get Fattoush Salad, Greek Salad, or Tabbouli Salad , should have ordered the Greek Salad. Other sides are Rice Pilaf, Fries, or Grilled Vegetables for a $ 1 upcharge. The food is just ok but the portions are large . That's why they are busy, a lot of over 55 communities in the area.

Interesting fairly new Mediterranean restaurant with emphasis on Turkish or Arab delicacies. I had basically a salmon dish which was squares of salmon grilled and cooked with a,special sauce. It came with a choice of sides and soup. My favorite lamb chili soup from Turkish or Kurdish taste took me back over 30 years to Gulf War experiences. Everything was hot fresh and tastefully plated. A special treat was a heart shaped pita bread in honor of St Valentines day though there was a beautiful calligraphy of Quran on the wall
