What our guests are saying

Amazing spot. We had beef and chicken kebob. They come with rice, marinated cabbage, and onion. You also get a little bowl with spicy, very aromatic herbal sauce. Plus, amazing honey cake (medovik, like in Eastern Europe) and Napoleon. These 2 are hard to find in the US. Highly recommended!

I’ve seen this place on social media and finally had the chance to check it out, and the food, service & atmosphere did not disappoint! We got a bunch of food items, and some of my favourites were the Mirza Ghasemi, Tachin, & saffron ice cream. The drinks, including the Lavashak cocktail, were really tasty as well. The ambience was low-lit and intimate, and the waitstaff were lovely.

Incredible restaurant. Appetisers, bread, dip and main courses were all superb! Waitstaff is very friendly. Food comes out in a timely manner and is cooked perfectly. The atmosphere is well decorated. Great for a 3rd or 4th date spot. The cocktails are crafted carefully and taste delicious!
