I was surprised at the portion sizes for both of them, actually. Food was flavourful and extremely filling for me; it sufficed for two meals for me. The place was cute with the seating and decor.

The ordering is quick, off of digital pads or the cashier and they bring the food out fast but also freshly prepared. A few small tables and two tables for larger parties fill the small space, but it feels comfortable rather than cramped. The staff is very nice, and routinely checked with all the tables. The falafel was great, small balls crispy on the outside but not still soft, and the hummus is nice and light. The homemade hot sauce isn't very hot, but it adds a nice flavor. This was a random stop-in for me, and I'm very glad to have found it!

It was like someone was trying to convince me that the place was great. Beet salad was incredibly underwhelming, and even looked unappetizing upon arrival.

This Mediterranean treasure sitting along the Alexandria waterfront is everything a great restaurant should be. The concept here is simple and beautiful: recipes passed down and made completely from scratch. Don't skip the traditional hummus. I was skeptical about the halloumi goulash because of the fruit but somehow... it works! Both entrees: salmon and lamb chops were delicious. Allie was both the perfect server and drink (ask for her signature punch). They also create award-winning martinis; ask for one!

Their happy hour is called "golden hour" and it's Mon-Fri from 3-7pm, and also have daily specials. I loved their dip + drink for $10 as you get to pick one of any of the dips with unlimited bread. I enjoyed the three dips I tried: minty labneh, grilled red pepper dip and havuc. Only their house wines and draft beers are the drink specials on the happy hour menu, however they have cocktail specials depending on the daily special. I definitely will come back for happy hour again, or try a meal next time.

I ordered the chicken platter with potatoes. This also comes with a small parsley/onion salad on flatbread on top and a larger piece of flatbread on the bottom. The chicken was well seasoned but was less lean and was a smaller serving of meat than at most similar restaurants. The parsley/onion salad on flatbread was an interesting concept but tasted a bit like cilantro on stale bread to me. The roasted potatoes were also well seasoned but because they were pre-cooked and reheated, they had the consistency of leftovers from last night that were reheated in the microwave. Finally, the piece of flatbread on the bottom seemed to be I heated and right off the shelf at the grocery store. That or perhaps it was just stale? Either way I wasn't impressed.
