- SKSuchitra S. Karnani4 days ago5.0We were a group of 5 and I would say the entire dinner experience was delightful. Our server was ready to explain things from the menu and she always got back to us if there was any doubt. We started ofcourse with the wines, spritzes etc. The Daiquiri was a wee sweet ...but great đź‘Ť The highlight for me was the babaganoush....it was outstanding - especially it's garnish ...it was so well done!! The pastas and the chicken that followed were lip-smacking.....we asked for spicy sauce - on the side - and were readily served ! The desserts need special mention - the chocolate babka as well as the cheesecake were DIVINE...must try both...
- JWJordan WalkerMay 13, 20265.0Great hummus and happy hour wine selection
- JHJulian HaltonApr 29, 20265.0Outstanding in every way! This is a hidden gem of San Diego. Top-notch client service, coupled with organic, local ingredients, a superlatively delicious meal and a nice glass of locally sourced wine is a recipe for excellence. Run do not walk to get to this restaurant!
- AOA. Reed (Oomfie)Apr 19, 20265.0I loved the baba ghanoush and the catch of the day!
- C9Caroline 901Apr 11, 20265.0Food is absolutely amazing, ordered the steak and a side of fries! I can’t stop thinking about how delicious it was! Highly recommend
