They have only a very small selection of middle eastern food, the rest of the menu was donuts and deli sandwiches. The donuts looked great also, but I was only interested in the middle eastern food. Great little place to stop. It's a very plain little deli restaurant, no esthetics. The staff were two teenagers, I'm guessing family ownership. They were polite and got the job done. I would definitely eat here again when passing through.

Fresh food in a welcoming environment. Tucked away in beautiful colchester with a private parking…read morelot to make access easy. When you enter there is a good sized dining room followed by a breakfast and lunch menu. The front cases display a variety of donuts and some baked goods. There is also a refrigerated case displaying freshly made hummus etc that they not only use to make their menu items but that you can purchase to take home similar to How you would at a deli. Once you decide on your order it is placed at the counter. You are able to sit down and the order is brought out. After eating you pay for your meal at the counter. This is a casual and relaxing dining experience with lots of flavor that you do not want to miss. "Now this is what Colchester needs."

What a great place! They deserve your attention…read more... Small intimate dining with amazing food and service. Everything we had was delicious. Interesting cocktails and beer.... Delicious manhattan made with touch of vanilla and bitters I'd not heard of Mussels, hummus....grilled octopus to start. Mussels with delicious broth/sauce...especially good. Grilled octopus amazing again the sauce made it all the more better. The 'bread and spread' which included hummus and a spread were also very good. Main course... Pork chop (excellent), strip steak with some kind of tahini sauce... cooked perfectly medium rare (Excellent) and lamb beef skewers ( excellent) Shared a Caesar salad... Not the usual...better flavor. had to be the dressing? Service from the start was also excellent. friendly and attentive, but not suffocating. The small space is very welcoming. Intimate but not stuffy or overcrowded. I was surprised that other people's conversations were not flooding into ours. Don't miss this unique place in Mystic. We'll have the oysters next time at the start.

Just wow! From the ambiance, drinks, service, and food, it was a 5-star for us. Cute and quaint,…read morefitting the Mystic vibe. The staff was all very friendly, pleasant, and helpful. The food was excellent with abundant Mediterranean flavors. We ordered some small plates to share (mussels, shrimp, lamb mousakka), including the pork chops. Even the "sides" that came with the plates were delicious. Wish we lived nearby so we could dine there again!

Last night we went to dine at Pasha. It was genuinely a very pleasant experience all throughout…read more Pasha is a Turkish restaurant. The interior is elegantly styled and comfortable. They had a beautiful Turkish Moroccan Mosaic lamp hanging right at the front. I was surprised they had cocktails and alcoholic beverages available. This is not typical in Middle Eastern restaurants. The prices were very reasonable I had to do a double take that they weren't mocktails. Their menu features plenty of traditional meaty options, some fresh salads and appetizers. I first started with their mojito. This was fresh and minty. A delightful cocktail. Their complimentary bread, was pillowy and fresh. Be careful, it is easy to overdo it with this delicious bread. For an appetizer we got a serving of their Babaganoush. This was an excellent pairing to that bread. This was incredibly tasty, you could taste the the eggplant, the olive oil and the lemon juice, together they created a super dreamy creamy combo. I got their version of a Gyro Quesadilla. This arrived with four very generous portions. It was filled with tender lamb and melted cheese. We got a Greek salad to share. This salad was very generous in its size, it was very fresh and tasty. We concluded with their chocolate cake. There were plenty of other traditional dessert options. This cake was very chocolatey and fresh. The top layer was very dark chocolate to me. We had a very pleasant first time at Pasha.

Welcome to Pasha! This place is now a year old! I haven't been here since last January! It's the…read moresame server too! It is located at 397 Broad St. in Manchester, CT. I have not been to very many Turkish restaurants. I believe the last one was in Springfield. They play Turkish music and the employees are all Turkish (I think). The place is really big. There must be [at least] 40 tables in here. Do not be deceived by the small store front. It is very deep. It's incredibly clean. I could even smell the cleaning chemicals at first. They start me off with a complementary carafe of water. It's nice. I don't believe it is tap water. It must be filtered. They also serve complementary bread with either oil or butter. That's a LOT of bread. A meal in itself! For my first drink, I am having the J.W. Black Label Old Fashioned. This is made with Johnny Black Walker, Elderflower liqueur and Angostura bitters. I've never seen an Old Fashioned made this way. This is classy! They use a circular ice cube to minimize the dilution tine. It is perfectly balanced, nicely garnished (two lemon peels) and has a very unique taste (thanks to the elderflower liqueur). This is good! The menus are very nice too and include pictures. The drink menu does not have prices. The decor is nice with a few ethnic paintings (and a few not filled yet). I like the [artificial] trees in the dining area. They hang cool lights on the walls. Nice, colorful, low hanging chandeliers too. For my soup, I'm having the mercimek (lentil). Mercimek çorbası (lentil soup) is the most popular and widely consumed soup in Turkey. Ingredients are typically red lentils, onion, carrot, potato or tomato, vegetable or light meat stock, olive oil or butter, and spices such as cumin and paprika. This came out quick! This is piping hot! The soup is delicious! Good portion. I like the addition of the crushed red pepper for a little kick. Be sure to sprinkle that lemon on it. I love the elongated spoon. They also bring out complementary bread and butter. No butter for me. The bread is good! For my salad, I am getting the Tabbouleh (this is Arabic not Turkish) made with parsley, tomatoes, bulgur, scallions, lemon juice and olive oil. Look at this monster salad! It is huge! This came out real quick! This comes with a lemon to sprinkle upon them. They have great presentation and tastes fantastic! Be sure to sprinkle the lemon. It's like a chopped salad. The Tabbouleh had a LOT of parsley. For my next drink, I'm having the Classic Martini made with gin, dry vermouth and olives (garnish). This is made with Greenall gin. I've never had this before. It's not bad! The taste is a bit off but is still fine. There are a lot of small, floating ice particles, but I don't care. It does , keep it cool, and melts quick. It has a nice olive garnish skewer too. Very good overall! For my appetizer, we are having the Mized Meze. Meze is a selection of small dishes served as appetizers in Arabic and West Asian cuisines. You know me! I loved samplers! This includes humus, babagannush, eggplant salad, haydari, havuc tarator & antep ezme. Hummus is a Middle Eastern dip, spread, or savory dish made from cooked, mashed chickpeas blended with tahini, lemon juice, and garlic. Baba ghanoush, also known as baba ganouj or muttabal, is a creamy, smoky eggplant dip that originated in the Levant region of the Middle East. The dish is made by blending roasted or grilled eggplant with tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and seasonings. Haydari is a type of yogurt dish similar to a thick cacık, made from certain herbs and spices, combined with garlic and yogurt. Antep Ezme is made with tomatoes, hot peppers, green peppers, onions, garlic, walnuts and olive oil. Look at this! You have to love the carrot slices dividing the individual items. There is paprika scattered on top. The server lays down the spoons as he describes each one. This goes great with bread! Wow! Is this good! I love the variety of textures and flavors! For my entree, I'm having the Chicken Kofte (flat chicken meatballs). Spicy please! Chicken meatballs aren't easy to find. This is the best! That jalapeño is hot! The salad has a nice light dressing too. I love the grilled tomato! This flavor is unbelievable! It was also nice to have a few minutes to chat with the owner! For my dessert drink, I'm having the Turkish coffee. Turkish coffee is a rich, unfiltered coffee made from finely ground beans simmered in a special pot (cezve) with water and sugar, resulting in a strong brew with grounds that settle at the bottom. It is extremely fine, like powder, much finer than espresso. Black, for me. I like the metal cup, this way it's not too hot in the hands. This is thick and yummy! For my dessert, I'm having the Pistachio Cake. This is a first for me. The plate is nicely chilled. This is real good! This place is incredible! There is no shortage of leftovers. I have at least two more servings worth. What a fantastic meal!

What an excellent restaurant - authentic, well-made dishes with huge portions at reasonable prices…read more I've been here several times now and it's been consistent each time. Food - Authentic and well made. For apps, normally not a fan of grape leaves, but theirs was very good. Melitzana was also delicious. I'd skip the falafel next time. Their gyro plate and chicken gyro plate were both excellent (the chicken gyro is essentially a chicken shawarma plate). You can get it with grilled vegetables which I highly recommend. Overall, amazing food. Service - Overall good, can't complain. Tables slightly small if dining for 2 given how huge the plates are, but that's more a testament to their huge portions than anything. Ambiance - Casual yet elegant. Works for a quick bite or a date night. Overall, highly recommend. Great establishment

He and my sister both had the Lamb Gyro. They both loved it. My first time trying the Chicken Souvlaki, it was delicious! Everything here is so flavorful! It's hard to decide on what to order. It was busy and a good kind of noisy. Nice vibes!! Can't wait to come back and try something else.

Zohara is classy, surprisingly affordable, and the food is absolutely delicious. Definitely go with the Meshta (feast) if you are going for dinner with a group. You'll get to try a wide assortment of the menu and it really serves as a fantastic method to savor the different flavors available to you at this restaurant. I've done it with just one other diner and not been upset. The feast includes a ton of appetizers, a few mains, and desserts. If you're going in for lunch, I suggest the mixed grill plates. Although I usually enjoy beef and lamb, and those are fine, I think the salmon with pomegranate really shines. I'd strongly recommend it for lunch. All of the cocktails I've had here have been nothing short of at least solid. They are inventive enough without going overboard. Service has always been stellar as well, and they were even accommodating of my dog on one visit. Overall, this is the best restaurant in West Hartford by a fairly wide margin.
