    I sat at a table outside under an umbrella and it was really nice. Food was delicious and a good value. Service was a little slow but everyone was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu.

    Food was great and good portion size! The service was a bit slow and chaotic but overall it was nice. Do note that if you want to seat outside, people so smoke hookah so if you arent about that its best to be seated inside the restaurant.

    On our visit to Dallas, we heard great things and this place and wanted to check it out. OMG! What a great treat for an out of towner. Staff was engaged and food was phenomenal. The whole bronzini fish was outstanding. Stuffed Dates, hollumi? Cheese dish and beet salad were to die for. Highly recommend you stop in and chk it out. Sit on HUGE outside seating area if weather permits.

    We got there and they had a shift change, so we were left on our own for a bit. Food was great and the porch made us want to stay (like we were visiting grandma’s house). We’ll definitely be back!

    This was wonderful. My dad had his birthday lunch there. It was so great that we could talk and hear our conversation. We were a party of 8 so we were upstairs. It was like being a special guest in someone’s home. The food was outstanding and desserts a great surprise. We will definitely return.
