Came here for my birthday last night with my boyfriend and my two sisters. Both my boyfriend and sister had been here years ago and remember it being pretty good so I decided to give it a shot. I deeply regret it. Service: It was a Tuesday night so needless to say it wasn't busy. A few more larger parties came in after 7:30, but the dining room and bar combined was still only at 1/3 capacity. We stayed at the restaurant for a little under 2 hours. We got sat at our table and ordered appetizers and drinks within 30 minutes of being sat, but our orders for entrees were not taken for almost an hour after our appetizers came out. The server we had (Corey ??) was not attentive at all and completely ignored or missed our attempts to get his attention so our order could be taken earlier. He also did not refill our water until close to the end of the second hour, and when we put our glasses out to be refilled, he just turned and walked away, leaving the pitcher. Which would've been fine... if he had just communicated that he was leaving the water in the middle of the table and didn't see us putting our glasses towards where he was putting the water. He also never checked in on us once to see how the food was or if we needed anything during our entire time there. This led to us sitting at our table for over half an hour with empty plates, waiting for him to check in on us so we could get our bill. And when he brought us our bill, he also started CLEANING the table. Not taking plates away, like scooping some of the fallen food with napkins as we were trying to reach for the bill. Not only did he not clean up all the food scraps from the table, he didn't even come back for the plates after that! I just felt like that was an unnecessary disruption when we were already trying to leave as soon as possible because of how unhappy we were with the service and food. Cleaning the table would have been appropriate if we had already left, not while we were still seated. He seemed to be the only server on the floor, and there were two food runners, but since it was not busy at all and there were only a few full tables, I expected better and faster service. Other staff members seemed okay, with some of them being pretty nice. After all the only person who was really supposed to take care of us was our server. We still tipped because we figured that tips are likely pooled and the rest of the team shouldn't have to suffer not getting tipped because one guy did not live up to our standards. Also none of the employees there were overtly rude or dismissive. Food: We got 3 appetizers, 3 entrees, and 4 drinks with all the food being shared family style. Drinks were okay. Everything food-wise was too salty aside from the Mezze Sampler, Halloumi Cheese, and Mushroom Rakakat. Everything else we got was nothing special and not worth writing home about or spending money on. The dozen oysters we got were not fresh and painfully small for the price. The falafel was oily and had chunks of salt in it. The stew was cold. The chicken confit was cooked splendidly, and is arguably the best cooked chicken I have ever had in my life (it fell off the bone and I didn't even need to cut it), but it was extremely salty as well. Overall: As someone who's worked in the restaurant industry for a while, I think this place needs some work. It has potential and I would definitely be willing to come back if some of the things I mentioned in my review were rectified. Good luck.
