The fried trout is amazing. the grilled shrimp was okay - not too unique or Mediterranean-esque. the lamb entree looks like three turds on a platebut it is spiced and spicy which I really enjoy! Highlight was the whipped feta, and the watermelon carpaccio. Outstanding, delightful, refreshing The cocktails are above average - the old fashioned (sept 2026 menu) was exceptional. The other ones, despite a list of unique ingredients / blend, tastes not much different than a mainstream, common cocktail i have had elsewhere. It’s not bad just saying I wouldnt order a cocktail again after trying 3 different ones tbh. The service was decent but each time I went, I noticed it got very slow towards end of the meal (eg getting the cheque or to get our plates taken away) because dinner time was picking up, and the server got busier and busier sitting other tables down and taking their orders, which takes a lot of of time, so those of us who arrived earlier than the rush would have to wait longer as dinner goes on. The atmosphere is nice in the internal decor is really cute. Especially the dog Polaroids wall I’d definitely be back for the trout! Price per person: $60–70 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5

Underwhelming food and service. The food was just fine. It wasn’t terrible, but the “protein-centered” dishes have no sides and are covered with overpowering sauces which take away from the flavor of the options. Also, the prices do not match the size of the portions or the quality of the meal. Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3 Order type: Dine in Meal type: Dinner

Truly one of the best. I can’t wait to go back. We had the Hay Maker & Happy Tears cocktails with Ajja platter with bread, GF bread and cucumbers. Then the chicken tawook, cauliflower & broccoli, and an eggplant tahini with blackberry dish - all amazing! I’ve never tasted tahini like theirs. We’re all still talking about the deliciousness. It was a wonderful way to celebrate turning 51!
