In Short – The large, bright dining area is modest but tastefully decorated with pictures of Middle Eastern scenes on the white walls. The decor allows casually dressed and business-suited diners to feel right at home. The appetizer combination allows five starters, including stuffed grape leaves or baba ghanoush. Dishes such as foul medamas, a coarse puree of nutty-tasting dried fava beans, are delightful journeys to less-familiar gastronomic territory. Finish with the flaky baklava and bracing, cardamom-scented coffee. –
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- As if the food here isn't enough to capture your attention, there's belly dancing every Saturday night.
- Know Before You Go:
- A second, upstairs dining room has a full bar and can easily accommodate large groups at a long communal table.

Excellent food at an excellent price

The dishes are all spectacular! I've visited this restaurant on 3 seperate occassions and have tried 3 different entrees and appetizers. I have yet to be dissappointed. The kafta is excellent, all appetizers are delicious, and the baklava is to die for! I cannot find anything bad to say about this establisment. I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who like mediterrenean food.
- Pros: Excellent food. Excellent service. Reasonable Prices
- Cons: Coral Gables parking in general

Great Experience!!!
by bee0079 at Citysearch
I went to a baby shower there recently and the service was great! The food was very tasty and the ambiance is very nice and comfortable (no sitting on pillows or uncomfortable chairs). The food was presented very nicely and tasted great. I normally do not like lamb and the lamb was delicious. As well as the hummus, babaganouj and the salad.

Great all around!!

My Boyfriend and I absolutely love this place! The service is quick, friendly, and attentive. I've never been dissatisfied. The food comes out fresh and hot. The bread is served warm and the salads cool and crisp. I LOVE the lamb medallions and the hummus and babaganouj are out of this world. You get a lot of good quality food for your money. Whenever I go there, the owner is always walking around asking everyone how things are...and no one ever has a complaint. Its a good place to go either with just your significant other or a big group of friends as they have lots of different appetizers to share and each is authentic and DELISH!
- Pros: food and service
- Cons: nothing
