Lovely food, great customer service and a nice and quaint atmosphere. They give you a complementary turkish tea with some sweets Ordered 4 dishes and all of them were amazing, each came with a salad and a side. The ribeye steak was especially nice, very tender and delicious. The price was your average restaurant price about £25 per person but its absolutely worth it, would come again.

Had an awesome time at this Mediterranean spot in Brighton today! The vibe inside was so chill and cozy. Loved how fresh the food was and generous portions, for a reasonable price (we particularly loved the rice!!) If you’re around Brighton and want something healthy and tasty, this is your place.

Cosy and friendly restaurant, with authentic Mediterranean food. Staff is super friendly, the prices are very reasonable (we spent £56 for two people), and the food is excellent. My husband said it was the best hummus he’s ever had! We will definitely go back

I had one of the best Mediterranean meal here. I had ordered pan-smeared salmon fillet with rice and salad - the salmon was so fresh and tasty and the rice was cooked perfect! Loved the salad dressing as well. The guys there are so welcoming and the service was great. When I was about to leave I saw a tempting dessert in an oven tray (was warm and fresh) & I bought it. The owner was very sweet & explained me how he made it and offered me an extra on-the-house fresh hot walnut baklava. The best baklava I've ever had in my life. So yummy!

Really excellent. Tasty, well-presented food. Lovely relaxing ambiance. Great music at just the right volume level, clean and fresh decor. Friendly staff who understand how to be attentive without over doing it. So good, I’ll be back again during my short break, as I didn’t have room for dessert this time around.

Amazing food and lovely atmosphere. We had a delicious meal - cocktails, a few starters and shared two mains. The staff were so kind and welcoming, our waitress was very accommodating with explaining what was gluten free on the menu. Such good value and large portions, we were so happy (and full) leaving!

I loved this place! Cute place and bright vibes. Also I wanted more salad instead of potatoes and rice options, and he was flexible to change. Aubergine with beef was also amazing! Baklava and tea and it was the best baklava I had with lots of pistachio. If I go back to Brighton, I will totally visit again :)
