Incroyable expérience les oeufs 65⁰ sont 11/10 quelle idée extraordinaire. Les pancakes baklava sont aussi délicieuses. Ça vaut vraiment la peine de prendre plusieurs plats à partager pour les brunchs. Le staff est aussi très professionnel & attachant. Kat, Pam & Audrey je les engage n'importe quand !! Seule chose que j'ajouterais est un DJ.

This was our favorite restuarant / meal of our vacation. Atmosphere-wise - it was more fancy inside than I thought it would be. Not to say that my jeans were out of place, but it looked very high end. Our service was outstanding & our waiter was very attentive & gave great recommendations. The manager even came over to see how everything was. Food-wise - we got (in order of preference): Armenian Kebab; Mouhamara (red pepper / pomegranate); Lamb Kebab; Brussel Sprouts. The combination of all of it was a lot of food - so next time, I would ditch the Brussel Sprouts - which was our least fave. It wasn't to say that we didn't like them - but compared to the other outstanding dishes, they paled in comparison. The Armenian Kebab was fantastic & a huge dish with potatoes, too. The Mouhamara was different than what we had in the States - but even better. The Lamb Kebab was also delicious with the pickled red onions. We loved the restaurant & would recommend it to all!

Recommended by a friend & we went there for dinner. Definitely lives up to its recommendation. The food was flavorful & delicious with amazing mix of ingredients. If you get Audrey as your server take her recommendations cause she is amazing & she knows what pairs well with the food you are trying to order. I would recommend getting the falafel & the amazing hot drink (genie's cup) that we tried. Also be ready to share food its more of a sharing thing but on your table only 😊

Nous avons eu un excellent service de la part de Pamela. Elle était attentive, drôle, aimable & très rapide. Elle nous a bien conseillé & expliqué le menu. C'est sans aucun doute l'un des meilleurs services que nous ayons eu. Merci Pamela pour cette expérience incroyable !
