The food was delicious, and I appreciated the opportunity to choose a keto friendly dish. The keto bowl is quite tasty, and very unique! It’s nice that there are a variety of proteins available for this dish. I do wish there were more keto friendly options, but having this one is definitely a plus. Our server, Robert, was, as always, very attentive and quite friendly. Unfortunately, because of the rain, we had to dine indoors, which can be very loud. I love the patio area, though. Overall, I would label this a neighborhood gem!

10/10 Stars When I first arrived to the restaurant I was greeted by the hostess who had a great personality. Upon being seated I was immediately greeted by my server who suggested her favorite meal which was the lamb chops with mashed potatoes. My meal was cooked to perfection and the service was excellent. I enjoyed the ambience and great music!

What a phenomenal meal. The food was fantastic but the service put this experience over the top. Our server Rachid was knowledgable about our wine selection and food pairings and his general hospitality elevated this visit above and beyond. I’ll be going back the next time I’m in Chicago!

It was our first time. Four of us each had different entrees and they were all so delicious! Our waiter was super sweet and professional. We enjoyed the vibe very much. It was a Thursday night, not crowded but still cozy and intimate.
