“ Nice restaurant and setting in Pacific Grove. Casual. We had a couple of appetizers and they were pretty tasty. The service was good and friendly. My only complaint would be the pita, it was not fresh, homemade or warm and makes me wonder about some of the food that looks rather uniform and too neat ... how much of the food is homemade or not???? ”
“ Service was friendly and attentive. Lamb shank melted in my mouth. Combination platter was excellent. Halva from the dessert menu was to die for! Great ambiance m, very intimate with relaxing music. ”
“ This place is fantastic. Hands down don't miss going here when in town if you like Mediterranean food. Service was great. Ambiance is super cute and authentic. We had Gyro pita and chicken pita.
