Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and accommodating, and their kindness really stood out throughout the evening. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor, and you could tell a lot of thought and care went into each plate. I tasted the Khachapuri flat bread, Wild Mushrooms, Lamb Lollipops, Kurobuta Pork Chop and the Braised Lamb Shank. Also pictured, the Duck Risotto and the Tomahawk steak. Between the exceptional service, delicious food, and inviting atmosphere, this was a truly memorable dining experience. I would absolutely recommend it for a special occasion or simply a great meal, and I'll definitely be back.

So we both ordered and he got the shrimp/chicken/beef Kebobs and I got the Mediterranean golden rice with broccoli m/mushrooms/onion and Greek salad plus homemade hummus which was delicious. The owner took our order and then waiter took care of us for the entirety of the meal. It was nice night out and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this establishment.

A couple of years ago, they stopped opening for Saturday lunch (which was the only time I ever went there..), so I stopped going there. Earlier this year I heard that they were once again open for lunch on Saturdays, and I've been there twice since then. As I mentioned, the food has always been good; pitas generally come with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles (middle-eastern), and tzatziki sauce, along with your protein of choice. I've had the chicken shawarma, the gyro, the kofta and the falafel; all were good. Today, I noticed that there is also an "eggplant pita" on the menu. Eggplants are a fairly common element in middle-eastern cooking, often sliced and grilled or roasted, sometimes battered, but often not. Sounded like a good idea? No, it was not.. What I got, instead of eggplant slices was just COLD baba ghanoush! Put on top of lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and a ladleful of rather runny tzatziki sauce, and what you ended up with was one COLD, SOGGY and WET mess inside a pita. It was dreadful, PLUS it made an unholy mess dripping all over everything! How can they call this an "eggplant pita" when it's just a cold baba ghanoush salad with runny dressing stuffed into a pita which can't handle that amount of liquid? BEWARE OF ORDERING THIS PITA!!!!!!

Food is excellent service was very good as it's just cafeteria build your own bowl, kind of thing. But the staff was friendly. Very casual atmosphere. They had the World Cup playing on one of the TVs in there. That was a lot of fun to watch. The spanakopita it was delicious the build your own bowl was very good too. I really liked the falafel. Whatever they do with the sweet peppers that I had in my bowl was awesome. The tabouli was pretty good.

Employees left personal hookahs on tables, which caused confusion -- we thought one belonged to our group, and they tried to charge us over $40 for it. That's misleading and feels like a setup. First-time customers automatically lose when there's a "gray area." Drinks were overpriced -- a shot of Remy was $17 and turned into $20 just because it became a mixed drink. The "religious" excuse for not making drinks, while still allowing someone else to do it, just to make money, shows no moral consistency. We planned to stay 20 minutes but left disappointed. This place cares more about image than honesty. Better hookah lounges in Rochester treat people with respect -- this one's not worth it.
