    Words cannot begin to describe how incredible this place is. Ammoora is an experience. From the waitstaff, to the cocktails, the atmosphere, each dish, is complex yet true to its Syrian heritage. Dean took incredible care of our party ensuring that our waters were full, we had a place to put our purses, and that our meal was appropriately coursed out. The manager made his round to us and enjoyed long conversation despite the restaurant being full. we never felt rushed or like a burden. The staff was thrilled to share their space with us and we were thrilled to receive every aspect of it.

    We enjoyed a pleasant experience. They are brand new and just getting started. The seating was indoors but in the open. The server was very nice. She checked back to clear plates and check on us. The food came out at different times, so it was staggered. It tasted very good. The kids did not like the vegan cheese. But the pizza was well received, as was the soup.

    Although it was a Friday evening, the restaurant was not very busy which was nice as it was quiet. Service was prompt and courteous and was paced just right. It is a beautiful restaurant that has a nice size bar. All of the food was top notch and delivered the Mediterranean flavors we were looking for. Definitely a place we will return to.
