Two of my friends and I waited in the bar for our third friend to arrive. Finally, he was running so late that we gave up and got our table. The main server was personable and not the worst server ever, but she was a little intrusive. So were the associated waitstaff. Just a little too noticeable, if you know what I mean. \r

We ordered two meze for the table: the wood grilled octopus and the selection of spreads with pita points. I knew that I wouldn't like the spreads, so I didn't try them but the others thought they were ok. The octopus was very tasty. I had never tried it before, so I didn't know what to expect. Our main courses were a little disappointing, I think. I had the lemon chicken, and it was basically two chicken wings on a bed of barley risotto. I liked the flavor of the chicken, but not the risotto. My friends seemed to enjoy the food more than I did, though they also remarked on the service not being the best. I spent $40, and ended up eating a bowl of cereal when I got home because my stomach was growling too loudly for me to sleep!
Pros: tasty food, complimentary valet parking
Cons: obtrusive service, small portions for the price
