While visiting San Diego, we decided to have dinner at this Mediterranean restaurant. The hummus was decent, and the falafel was quite good. The doner kebab wrap was a little dry on its own, but the tahini helped balance it out. Tugba, our server, was incredibly sweet and exceptional—she made the experience even better. We especially loved the desserts: both the künefe and kazandibi were outstanding and easily the highlight of the meal. Overall, a pleasant dining experience with good service and delicious desserts.

We had a lovely time here. Our barterders were very friendly and made it fun to sit at the bar. We throughly enjoyed our cocktails. Chicken Adona was tender and nicely spiced. Falafel was really tasty! Everything was great except pita bread wasn't as good.

Fantastic! The food was amazing, as was the ambiance and service. The falafel & hummus appetizer and lamb shish kabob plate were both delicious. I accidentally left my camera behind at the restaurant, and the owner went above and beyond in getting it back to me. Parking was easy to find in the very cute Gaslamp Quarter, and it is a short walk from waterfront hotels. Highly recommended!

We had a reservation for 7 pm on a Friday evening, it was quite busy so glad we had that reservation. Initally walking in, there is a very nice vibe and decor to the restaurant. We ended up ordering the Beef Borek as the starter. This we did not like as much, we were fortunate to try some really nice authentic borek over the years but this one seems to be a very health conscious version of it. For the main dishes we ordered the Adana Kebab (served with rice and green salad) and the Iskender (doner with fried bread, tomato sauce and yogurt). I've been looking for Iskender for over a year and this definitely hit the spot. For dessert we ordered Kunefe which was made perfectly. It had the right amount of Syrup, a good amount of cheese inside and the crispiness was on point. Overall great service, great food and great restaurant!

I stopped by this place with some girlfriends before we watched a comedy show at Balboa! Service was quick and efficient, food was delicious, and the restaurant was nice with plenty of indoor and some outdoor seating. Parking is difficult in this area per usual, but there are plenty of paid lots nearby. Food/cocktail review: Summer rose: (3/5) It was OK. It was refreshing but the flavors didn’t blend well. Pistachio espresso martini: (5/5) I personally cannot drink coffee, but I did take a sip for review purposes lol. I really liked the foam on top, very tasty and different than anything I’ve tried before. Hummus trio: (5/5) The different types of hummus were delicious! It came with plenty of pita for dipping. Dolma: (5/5) Delicious!! They’re the perfect size and are very refreshing and tasty. We ended up ordering 2 of these because they were so good! Mimoza house salad w/chicken: (5/5) Refreshing, tasty, and a good portion for sharing. I could’ve eaten this as my main course, the dressing was delicious! Cheese borek: (5/5) Cooked to perfection. It was flaky, warm, and soooo good!! We ended up ordering the spinach one as well (not as good, in my opinion)
