    Phyllo feta

    FYI their hours have not been updated anywhere (Yelp, Instagram, or website) - but they're open for lunch and dinner 7 days/week now. Food and service were both great. The octopus was stellar. Can't wait to go back.

    BarVera was an excellent choice for our anniversary. We had a reservation at 7ish on a Friday and were seated immediately. We sat at a high top across from the bar and could observe the bar and staff service of the whole space. Every table appeared to get just the right amount of checkins, which is also what we experienced. The server didn't introduce himself but was very pleasant and asked us what order we wanted food to come in. We had the Octopus and baba ghanouj as starters. The octopus was perfectly tender and was topped with baked eggplant, a potato, and frisée lettuce. It's exactly what I'm looking for when I order octopus. The baba ghanouj was a perfect texture with pomegranate seeds on top and two fresh puts on the side. It was delightfully tart and the pita was clearly freshly cooked. Highly recommend both. For mains my husband had the lamb and I had the shish tawouk. The server checked before bringing out the mains and then it was just a few minutes. The lamb absolutely fell off the bone and we took about half home and it was great day two. While the chicken was flavorful and juicy, the toum on my dish was the . For dessert we had the crème brûlée and lemon olive oil cake. The crème brûlée was light and yummy. I would skip the olive oil cake if we went again. It was good in the middle but $$ for what it was. I had the lemonade cocktail and it was yummy. My husband had the pomade and really enjoyed it. Overall I'm very happy with the service and food. We'd definitely go again.

    Eating here feels like you're sitting in someone's home (in the best way possible). The service was great and attentive. The food was fresh and flavorful. GET the lemon potatoes!!! The cocktails were also very good, and definitely well balanced. I will be going back here many, many times.

    Really enjoyed the ambiance at our team's first visit to Cka Ka Qellu. It's a well-hidden gem,…read morefilled with historical artifacts and authentic music/dishes. Definitely appreciate the staff recommendations on portion sizes, plates to share for the table, and wine pairings. We enjoyed a little bit of everything: dips/salads, traditional grilled meats, roasted vegetables. It's hard to imagine not being able to find something for any type of diet/preference. Would come back again for sure, as they have an extensive list of options to try. Great spot within walking distance of downtown Stamford hotels.

Meanwhile some white diners came in, and they hurriedly ushered them smiling to a table. Didn't give us menus (but gave menus to all diners that came in after us) until I flagged someone down for them. I watched them give complimentary bread and sauce to every other table except ours. I had to interrupt one waiter to ask about it and he shrugged me off, not even stopping to look at me, and muttered he'd get it. He got us bread but not the sauce, I had to ask him if it comes with the bread he said no. Later I asked another diner if it was complimentary, he said yes. It's unbelievable, we spent more than 100$ here to be treated like beggars. I would suggest any POC stay away; we were made to feel incredibly unwelcome and uncomfortable. On the other hand, the food was barely mid. The veal was so tough it was like eating rubber. In the end we couldn't finish it because it just wasn't good. I am not even sure if perhaps on purpose they gave us expired food because afterwards my friend and I both got upset stomachs. If you must be in Stamford you should take your business elsewhere, perhaps dont support a racist establishment.

The main benefit of that being I didn't have to decide what I was having for lunch. This was the choice. I like mediterranean because it tends to be slightly healthier than some other options. This place is right up my alley because of the vegetarian leaning options on the menu, which is another benefit of this particular cuisine. Having said that, there were quite a few choices for me. They have bowls, salads, soup, sandwiches, platters, I mean, it's endless. I was planning on taco bell for dinner so had to compensate somewhat with lunch and decided to build a salad. I did greens, their mix of rice and lentils, cauliflower, cabbage, pickles, hummus, hot sauce. I am not a big fan of spring mix and I wonder if maybe something hot caused the greens to wilt but they were way too wilty for me. That was not particularly appetizing but everything else was really tasty. The hummus, especially, holy shit. I could eat that with a spoon. Two of my colleagues got the jersualem falafel sandwich and raved about it. I tried some of their fries and that seasoning is a game changer. I also got the garlic dip (to eat at home, later, don't worry). I couldn't tell you what that substance is and idk if I even want to know but it is whipped lusciousness. I am also genuinely curious to know how much garlic they put in there because it literally BURNS. No concern for vampires for quite a while. Very tasty, would definitely order again.
