Such a hidden gem in Albany! I love Mediterranean food and I got the shawarma plate. My friend got the Mediterranean which comes with pita on the side! For drinks, we got Midnight on Solano and See You Sousse. Personally, for almost $20, these portions were huge so I am not complaining at all. Drinks wise, I thought I love sweet alcoholic drinks but after tasting my friend's Midnight on Solano, I realized I am truly into refreshing alcoholic beverages. The vibes of the restaurant were awesome. Lots of people sat outside but since I like to take pictures, the inside setting made sense. Now, I hate ordering dessert from the same restaurant but like my friend was gassing up the crumbled baklava...
Delightful Mediterranean selection in the Mazza Platter, including creamy hummus, smoky baba ghannouj, and zesty tabouli. Eggplant salad and falafel added satisfying crunch, creating a well-rounded introduction. Halloumi Salad combined salty halloumi with fresh greens, pomegranate, and bean sprouts, tied together by zesty garlic vinaigrette—a refreshing interlude. The Outstanding Mansaf: Braised lamb shank in sheep's yogurt over rice, lavash, pine nuts; tender lamb, unique yogurt twist—an unforgettable combo. We had the Crumbled Baklava, containing walnuts, pistachios, vanilla ice cream, and caramel, as our final dessert! Overall, an exceptional experience; though slight saltiness in dishes...
Absolutely delicious and so many tasty and well-thought out and executed vegan options that feel like a whole meal and not the pale and weaker sibling of the meat version. My husband, who is not vegan, also loved his beef and lamb shawarma and my in-laws loved their chicken and couscous platter. Customer service was excellent too and we did not find it to be over priced relative to the quality and portion sizes. Had a wonderful birthday dinner with my family. We dined outside as it was a bit too cold inside (my only small complaint! but next time will make a point to bring layers so we can enjoy the beautifully decorated indoor space. Thank you to the wonderful staff and will be coming back.
Ordered the chicken kebab, with rice and salad. Chicken was bone dry, rice was wet, and the salad had almost no dressing on it. Not a great choice. The only reason I gave it two stars is the restaurant is very clean, and the service was ok. But as for the food, at least what I ordered today, next time I'm in the area I'll try the tacos up the block.

A Mediterranean masterpiece! The menu's thoughtfully curated, showcasing the chef's pursuit of perfection. Perfect spot for large gatherings. While the main courses aren't hefty, the starters are bursting with flavor definitely share those delights! The inside is also well designed and uniquely.
Good but can get better Mediterranean food for much cheaper at same level of delicious. Baklava ice cream dessert was top notch though. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $30–50 Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4
Probably would have been better had I been hungry. I got the fattoush salad with falafel, plus a mezza platter on the side. Everything was very fresh and well-seasoned, but not mind-blowing, especially for a vegetarian.
They do some great and tasty dishes. Freshly prepared dishes for all tastes. Support local businesses. Worth trying if you have an adventurous palate
