The restaurant is small and has quite a few tables that you can easily arrange to accommodate a large party. The food here is Mediterranean and is so yummy. I ordered the falafel plate and subbed rice for the fries. It was a large portion so it is shareable if two people are looking for a filling snack or light lunch. The falafels were crunchy on the outside and moist inside- made perfectly! The hummus was served with fresh lemon juice and was fresh. I asked for some sumac to sprinkle onto my plate and it elevated the flavors. The dessert was delicious. I love pistachio anything and in baklava, it's my favorite. While I prefer a buttery pastry, this one was delicious and not too sweet. They have so much more in their menu, such as lentil soup, chicken soup, kabobs, kufta, stuffed grape leaves, and baba ganoush!! Definitely coming back to try their other dishes. Enjoy!

My only disappointment was the girl taking our order asked if we wanted a half or full order of baklava for dessert. She stayed there were 2 pieces in the half order and 4 pieces for a full. We ordered the half since there were 2 of us and we received only 1 piece from a gentleman. When we questioned the one piece he stated you only get one with a half order. Please be sure this is clear with all employees so as not to mislead your customers.

It was a good amount of food, it fed 10 of us with 7 adults and 2 toddlers and a 92 year old great grandma who doesn't eat a ton. So at first I thought it was over priced for 6 people but for 8-10 I think it's correctly priced. We enjoyed it!

The server was well versed in the menu and took on 10 tables by herself. She also gave a fun fact about the ceiling. I might have to come back for the spicey chicken but splitted the chicken bowl with my boss. We liked the flavor of the chicken and garlic sauce. I'm so sorry but the salad was not good. I'm so happy I didn't get my own salad. It had minimal crunch and my rice was cool. I did not notify the waitress but to remake my food would be time consuming. Which they did have a sign that said they would fix any issues. I loved that!Overall I'm happy it was a cute spot in downtown Hanford. Oh I also got hummus didn't like cold tomato's on it but I'd order it without and maybe extra olive oil and paprika. Overall 4 stars for the waitress. She is so impressive handling tables. Things I would suggest. A hummus trio plate. I wanted to see how spicy the spicy hummus one was. They didn't have samples...

My husband had been raving about this place and asked for us to go together so i was open to trying it. The two siblings working greeted us and were so welcoming.

We were told they make it every day and it is seriously so flavorful and yummy. Our plates were equally delicious and full as you can see by the attached photo. I will definitely be back.
