Mediterranean spreads for office lunches, events, and family get-togethers. Generous portions that feed a crowd without the fuss.

Ordered filet skewers and now I have standards I didn’t ask for. Ridiculously tender, actually flavorful, and gone in about 3 minutes. They don’t skimp on sauces (rare, appreciated). Kid-friendly, easy beach parking, no logistical drama. Yes, it’s spendy —but it’s filet mignon. Let’s stay grounded. Staff was genuinely nice, which almost felt suspicious. Annoyingly worth it. Will be back.

I honestly thought I was ordering from a restaurant when I placed my to-go order, so I was a little worried when I realized it was inside a liquor store 😅. But after stopping in and reading the other reviews calling it a hidden gem, I felt better — and they were absolutely right! The staff were so kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. The chicken was hands down some of the best I’ve had. The rice and hummus were out of this world, and the green dipping sauce with…

This food is so amazing!! Everything is always cooked to perfection and they also have great sauces. The green sauce, and garlic sauce are very good, along with the hummus and greek salad. The rice is also to die for. Everyone that i tell about this place absolutely loves it. The plates are around $20, and definitely worth it. So good!!

If you do not eat here you are doing yourself an injustice. My only regret is that I only tried this place on my second last day. I'll be back tomorrow and any subsequent trips to the area. SO GOOD! Splurge on the filet mignon kebab. So tender.

Ok so do not miss this place it is in the liquor store and amazing. We have eaten a lot of Middle Eastern food and I cook a lot of it. We were blown away, we got the chicken shawarma with humus and baba ghanoush was honestly the best I have ever had anywhere. The Greek salad with the chicken kabob, amazing. The staff was wonderful such awesome and great people running and cooking in this spot. Don't miss it go in the store and to your left is Middle Eastern food heaven.
