  We tried this new restaurant after the Christmas holiday. I have wanted to try it for quite some time. Everytime we drove past the restaurant there was hardly any patrons; however since we love Mediterranean food we decided to give it a try. Well we tried it... and don't need to try it again. The food is not bad but its not all that either. The Chicken didn't taste like it had been marinated overnight - at all. It had a slight crispy burnt look and taste. The Baba-ganouj was ok but too much lemon was added. The stuffed grape leaves were decent. The only good thing was the hummus and the ice water. Prices were average priced - not too expensive but not too cheap either. I mean for a glass of soda it was $2.19! I think we could have purchased (2) 2-liter bottles for that price. The ambiance of the restaurant was admirable but it's still lacking soumething. Maybe some table candles or maybe some curtains might help afterall our window view from our table was the parking lot. The parking lot is not the most breath taking view for enjoying a "traditional" mediterranean dinner. The table service was okay. For a new restaurant there wasn't much excitement from the staff. I left them a nice tip to cheer them up. Out of 5 Stars Overall I give them 3 Stars 1. Food 3 stars 2. Service 3 stars 3. Prices 3 stars 4. Ambiance 3 Stars

  I echo the comments on the reviewer above. I just tried this place. The hummas was definately the best dish of the night. If you like Hummas, definately order it. The pita bread was fresh and very good. The main entrees we had (chicken with a side of rice and the skirt streak with rice) were below average. They were not very tasty. They may have other entrees that are good but I probabbly won't be back to try. Hopefully, the chefs at this place can work on their dishes and make them more tasty. The wait staff was friendly.
