Very Good
I went with a friend for a pre theater dinner. We arrived around 5:30 PM on a Saturday and it was packed by 7:00 PM. I could understand the reviews that said it was loud but we were near the entrance so it was fine. The food was very tasty and filling. However, I think the wine at $13/glass was a little pricey for the quality. Overall it was a great experience and would go back.

Great find
Terrific restaurant. Not pretentious. Good service and diversity of food. Excellent wine list. I've been there twice and will go again for sure.

Great Find in Hells Kitchen
We stumbled upon this little gem of a restaurant. We ordered the 17 different mezes with whole wheat pitas, basturma and goat cheese, the greek pork sausage with orange peel, and the highlight, the lamb sausage. We also ordered the bureks, one spinach and one beef, which were light and not greasy. The food was very tasty and the portions generous. The service was helpful and attentive and the atmosphere and music very European. No complaints about the bill either. Will definitely be going back.

The family loved it.
There were 4 of us so we were able to take the 17 spread plate. We liked all 17 of them. The Burek was a little dry, but the Chicken Soup was delicious as was the Beef Au Gratin dish. We had Efes Turkish beer and a Vogolier White White which was the recommendation of the day. It was crisp and tasty with the food. The Greek Leucanika sausage was good and not fatty. The Baklava and Halvah were top drawer. We will be visiting there again We were there Sunday at noon and the service could not have been better. Attentive and very pleasant.

Unbelievable jazz, food, and atmosphere!
We come here at least once a week--they have the kind of food your grandmother would cook, soooo cheap, but the atmosphere is so lovely. We come mostly Tuesdays and Fridays to hear the most wonderful jazz duo (voice and guitar). This is truly a hidden gem. Can't recommend it enough!

Awesome!
The owner is very nice. He greated us at the door and sat us down. He then told us a funny story and helped us pick out what to do eat! Food was very tasty and got two free glasses of wine. You cannot beat that. We are going back tonight!

Order the sampler!
Delicious! Beware that w/o asking they added $2 to my barek order for the cucumber sauce. We never asked for it & never ate it. I know its only $2 but I expected it to be $5 per piece, not $7. Which ultimately was an extra $4.
