What our guests are saying

Ok! Found this little "local" gem!! I kind of think the locals won't really want me to spill the beans but the food here is DELICIOUS !!! It's a little hard to find because it's actually in the back end of this market! There's a decent bar section in the back where you can get beer and a glass of wine... if you're in the area, check this gem out and enjoy the middle-eastern food here!!

Amazing Mediterranean food. My favorite Greek slaad-the dressing is delicious. Plates are plentiful. Meats are always juicy and flavorful. One of my favorite hummus to eat as well. Online ordering is available.

What a little hidden gem. Wanted a place where I could get a proper wine, watch playoff hockey, and eat great food. Hit all 3 here. Authentic, unpretentious, spot. Don't let the market out front fool you!
