    House special app
    Luis M.

    Great service and very friendly staff, price is a little high for the location and ambiance of the restaurant. For those prices I would expect nicer table cloth and silverware. Food was good but the appetizer was ok you really have to like hummus for that app.

    If you're looking for a quality Egyptian restaurant (with Lebanese and Moroccan influences), this is the spot. They're specials make trying their menu affordable and the quality do not disappoint. If you have more than 4 in your party, do the staff a favor and make a reservation!

    For this dining experience, I had the mushroom soup which is delicious and the eggplant appetizer. My main course was braised lamb shank with risotto. It was delicious. The ambience was excellent with the white cloth table cloths and napkins. First class. Service from our server is excellent. I recommend this restaurant highly..

    Chicken shawarma lunch portion and chicken shawarma platter

    We were the first customers today and first time here. Our waitress was fantastic and very attentive. Thervice was amazing and explained the menu to us. The ambiance was very fancy, very classy. We ordered the hummus with pita, a garlic sauce, and a spicy sauce. I should have asked what the names was to the sauces because they were amazing! Our waitress even packed us more sauce to go lol. My husband ordered the chicken shawarma lunch portion which included pita bread and mushroom soup. I ordered the chicken shawarma platter because I'm a hefty eater lol. We ordered the baklava to. It was so much food, but we really enjoyed every bite. I highly recommend this restaurant!

    The most amazing Seabass
    Robin M.

    So let me just start by saying, this is the best meal I've had in a very long time, which actually says a whole lot because I am most definitely a foodie! Walking in I found the surroundings to be an extremely calm & relaxing atmosphere. It's most definitely clean , and the weight staff go out of their way to make sure you have exceptional service throughout your whole stay. We were lucky enough to have a young lady named Claritze. She was extremely knowledgeable of the wine menu , offered us samples, and of course we settled on a whole bottle. (They bag, cork up and put a receipt on the package of any portion you don't drink so you can legally take it to go) On dinner - we ordered the calamari for the table- it was so crispy on the outside and yet so tender on the inside. The spicy aïoli sauce was the perfect accompaniment, but if that's not your taste, they have other sauces to dip in. Moving onto the dinner - Again, Claritze was very knowledgeable of the menu. I had the most incredible, flavorful, glistening piece of sea bass with a bur blanc sauce that was perfectly balanced and smooth. The Seabass was served a top a beautiful mushroom risotto, with a side of butter poached asparagus. I don't even know how to tell you how delicious this was !!! My compliments to the chef on this one ! Others at the table had two different lamb dishes that were both absolutely amazing. That lamb shank literally just fell off the bone and was so juicy and succulent. The portion size on everything that came to the table was way more than adequate. Much larger than most restaurants I've dined in. The only problem I might have had with this establishment was the fact that everything on the menu looked so delicious I wasn't sure what to decide on, but I couldn't of been happier with my choice. I will most definitely be going back and highly recommend this upcoming restaurant to anyone in the area or visiting. Again I feel the need to complement our server, who was just so friendly and polite, very attentive to us, and very knowledgeable of the full menu. I really hope this business thrives because I don't want to lose this chef in our neighborhood!

    See all

    I had lunch with my 24 friends. No one had any complaints. I had a Philly steak and cheese sandwich and one of the best I have ever eaten.

    Wow! Add this to your must visit list. What a cool cocktail bar - maybe one of the best I've been…read moreto in the country! It's a beautiful bar, but there is limited seating and when they're at capacity they lock the door, so be patient and suggest coming in a smaller group. Humungous menu with tons of styles of cocktails for all palates, really inventive, and it does seem to change often. I got a tiki drink which was a twist on a zombie and it was AMAZING, tasty and unique plus it was lit on fire ha! My husband got another fun cocktail. They were maybe a little pricey but for fancy cocktails with many ingredients, plus the showmanship, this seemed par for this type of place. Staff is very friendly, loved our server and shout out to bartender Justin - I hope he comes to visit Idle Hour up in Baltimore! Note that they don't serve food at all and some of their drinks are BOOZY so be mindful! Overall just a really great bar with unique drinks in a swanky environment. Top notch experience.

These folks understand the meaning of craft cocktails, complete with making as many of their own ingredients/mix-ins as possible. We were lucky as we were able to just walk in and pick any table we liked at 8pm on a Wednesday. I guess it can get quite busy at times. The chartreuse colored chairs and gorgeous stained glass lights told me instantly that we came to the right place. They have an extensive cocktail list, but that didn't stop me from ordering something not on the menu. They had no questions or problems making it. My spouse also ordered something not on the menu that was recommended to her by someone that had it once here before when it was one of their seasonal specials. Once again, not a challenge for these master bartenders. Everyone was upbeat and clearly enjoying what they do. Looking forward to getting back the next time I'm in Bonita.

Our group of 8…read moreenjoyed the zucchini, calamari, and 5 spread appetizers, which were all tasty and served in nice portions. The entire table ordered grilled fish, and the Greek potatoes, which were well seasoned and delicious. The drink and wine selection was adequate, and pricey. A lower corkage fee for those wanting to bring in a bottle would be appreciated. The restaurant is beautiful and offers both indoor and outdoor seating. For larger groups or those wanting a more quiet table, I would recommend patio seating. High,y recommend.

    Love the ambiance of this Upscale Mediterranean restaurant. It was a weekday and raining out but…read morethe place was very crowded, and had high energy. Service was excellent, with the manager coming around to the tables and asking if everyone was enjoying themselves. It was my birthday and was given a wonderful table on the outside patio overlooking the fountain. Even though it was still drizzling, we stayed dry. We started with the 3 spread appetizer. It was very good, and appreciated that they included both veggies and naan. For our main entrees, we chose whole fish Mediterranean Sea bass. You get to pick your own fish, so you can decide how big of a fish you want. In addition, we added the filet skewers. The grilled whole fish lived up to the reputation of many of the previous reviews. Excellent. Unfortunately the filet skewers were over cooked. We ordered medium rare. It came well done. Even though my husband ate almost 1/4 of the kebobs, when I told the waitress it was over cooked she brought the skewers back to the kitchen. She also expedited the re-order and my husband got a medium rare kebob. Delicious, and loved the sauce that it came with. Important to note that the whole fish entree did NOT come with any sides. Since the kitchen was so busy, the waitress was honest and said if I ordered a side after just we received our entrees, we wouldn't get it back before we finished with the fish. So we skipped it. In future, it would have been nice to know that we should ordered sides in addition to the entree. We shared a napoleon dessert and coffee at the end. Overall had a wonderful dinner. We will definitely be back.
