Reviews
- wine_geraniumI've been here a few times before and stopped by again since I was in the area. The lamb skewers are still super tender, perfect balance of fatty and lean, and not greasy at all. The grilled eggplant is crispy on the outside and soft inside, seasoned just right, just as good as I remembered. The chicken skin wasn't quite as mind-blowing as last time, but honestly still pretty good overall. The place was pretty packed, lively vibe, felt like nothing had really changed. Same familiar taste, will definitely keep coming back.
