    Came here with a party of six for dinner service. Ambiance of the restaurant was beautiful and authentically Persian. I had the shish kabob, which was delicious. We finished up our meal with a saffron tea which was soothing as well.

    Valentines Day dinner on the enclosed back patio. The service was exceptional, especially for a very busy night. The ambiance was fine given that I reserved fairly late and got a table on the back patio instead of the main dining room. The patio is very nice in cold weather, warm enough and protected from the wind. It is also pretty quiet. The food was great as always. We were not rushed. Altogether a great experience on a night that can be a nightmare for restaurant owners and workers.

    Excellent selection of authentic Turkish dishes, well executed and delivered with beautiful simplicity. Very gracious but efficient and professional and attentive service. Ambiance is lively and we loved the Turkish music at a level that still allowed for conversation at the table. Really enjoyed our evening and will be back!
