Highly recommend this place. Enjoyed every order from here. I personally do like Baklava, so I was willing to try the interesting sounding Baklava Pancakes. It's just that, Backlash in the form of pancakes. If you enjoy both, this is a great option. First time trying Turkish coffee. I like drip coffee or V60. This was very cool, the coffee is given to you in a little pot, once the coffee grounds settle to the bottom you carefully pour it into the coffee cup, be sure to go slow to avoid getting too many coffee grounds. It has a very distinct flavor. I've never tried a Chick A’la King and wow this was delicious. Lots of spices but not over bearing, and creamy but not too thick. It was made well! The staff was very friendly and the decor and ambiance is super cool!

Brookline lunch has the best pancakes I’ve tried! The pistachio baklava ones are delicious. What a great surprise. The place is cute and small so I would try to arrive earlier.

One of the best brunch places in the Boston area. All the plates have a homemade warmth and flavour. Highly recommended!

The place gets packed, because the food is extremely good!
The service could be better, because there are only two servers in the restaurant. The restroom doesn't feel clean.
4/5.

The baklava pancakes are a must try! Their shakshouka is super delicious with their handmade pita bread! The staff is super sweet!! The place has a very casual but artsy ambiance

So good! Service was excellent. Food tasted fresh and delicious. Baklava pancakes are a MUST. I can't wait to try the weekend knafa pancakes! The chicken is halal here. This is Boston's hidden gem.

Delicious food and good portions. Definitely worth trying the baklava pancakes, although they are quite sweet!
Docking a star for the use of plastic water bottles and styrofoam coffee cups, even for dine-in. I’m not sure if this is a usual practice here, but it’s certainly not a sustainable one.
