    The food was good and the ambience was really nice, we had the seafood linguine and the burger I’d say it was a 8/10. The hookah was nice and the selection of music was good too. Staff was nice and we were able to be in a secluded area for our anniversary dinner.

    We had such a pleasant dinner. We ordered several tapas (fried goat cheese, stuffed red peppers, shrimp and tuna), and we both had pasta dishes( Malfadine al Nero and Papardelle with pork ragu) . Everything was very tasty and well cooked. Even the pasta was "al dente". A wonderfull approach to Italian food. Brian was very professional, helpful and kind. Ask for him for a better experience!!!!

    Was looking for a good mediterranean/Turkish restaurant in the area. This was a great find!!! My son has put this as the top of his list of places to eat in Decatur GA area. Food was fantastic and waiter was fabulous. Don't forget the desserts - what a way to top off the meal. Definitely will go here again when visiting my son.

    Ela was amazing. The service and food were outstanding. The only issue was that it was VaHi restaurant week and with only 3 items on the menu - it was disappointing that the main item, the skewer, the restaurant was out of at 7p. But, it was our first time there and other than that we had a great time! Would highly recommend!
