Rahmat B.May 22, 2016This is an amazing restaurant. One of the best Mediterranean I've ever had. I arrived and was greeted with a friendly welcome by Ben. The food tasted great! I would go back every time I'm in Carmel.
Abood AbussaudDecember 25, 2018A beyond perfect experience. A great complimentary dip, very tasty main courses such as the lamb shank and Teta’s eggplant dish. Great service and hospitality. Will definitely go back very soon
Hannah RagusaOctober 22, 2018So delicious! Got the chicken Kabob and my plate was wiped clean by the end so good! Also the pita and hummus was a great starter choice
Chad BOctober 6, 2014Wanna splurge a bit? Get their Gorgonzola filet mignon and have a nice glass of wine to go with it.
Jessica ChoiJuly 5, 2014One of the few places open late. Great home cooked style Mediterranean food with very friendly staff.- AndrewAugust 31, 2016Kabobs are perfectly cooked and tender. Excellent service from the owner, who greets every guest.
Philip HubertusAugust 25, 2015The Mishmash chicken is divine. We especially enjoyed the warm hospitality of Ben and his family.- Mark MunroOctober 29, 2017Loved the live music and atmosphere. Food was very good, but not exceptional.
- Keri GarelOctober 15, 2013Service was great until the owner shook my hand, asked, "So, do you Yelp?" without letting go of it, and in reply to my "No, not really," said, "Your kind words would be greatly appreciated." Um, I I.
Fh HaJune 12, 2018The food was decidedly mediocre and portions were small. Calamari over cooked Given the previous reviews wondering why our meal (chicken was dry, eggplant missing in Teta’s) was so dismal.
Edson TakayassuOctober 11, 2017Ambiente intimista e acolhedor. O dono é super simpático. As comidas são excelentes. Só a entrada mezza já vale a visita. Mas o ravioli de cordeiro e o salmão a siciliano não ficam atrás.
