The food was outstanding - I highly recommend the manti. The dumplings were so soft and chewy and the yogurt was so creamy. Omar was my server and he was so attentive, nice and helpful.

Too hot climate, it was really uncomfortable and we had to ask three or four times the waiter to do something because we were sweating even though outside temperature was 10 degrees! Too noisy with bad acoustics. Nice view though.

Great food and service in an authentic atmosphere. The pomegranate and pistachio mezze is refreshing and tasty. The olive mezze is addictive. All of the grilled dishes were tasty and cooked just right. The doner and lammcun were my favorites. We also tried chicken kebap and pistachio kebab. Luckily, there were 5 of us so we could share a nice variety of food. Would definitely come again.
