Grabbed dinner with friends, ambiance was great! Many things labeled as GF. Shared fryer so nothing fried is an option. Our table shared baba ganouj, hummus, dolmas and the water melon cheese salad (which was amazing!!). I got fresh veggies for dipping, the table got pita. The entree’s are all served with the fatoush salad (not GF) and rice pilaf (not GF). It was easier to order a salad and add chicken than substitute to make the entree GF. I had the heirloom tomato Mediterranean salad and added chicken. It was fantastic!!! It was such large serving sizes that I could have easily shared. I definitely try to order things that should be GF as they are instead of trying to modify. The pita bread is not warmed on the grill where they cook the skewers. Other reviews made me worry that cross contamination would be a concern, but I am celiac and feel fine. I will definitely go back!

I've eaten here twice now. The food is fantastic and the ambience of this outdoor restuarant is very fun! Most of the appetizers are gf (clearly labeled on menu) and almost every entree is gf, even though it doesn't explictly say so on the menu. I get the lamb skewers with extra salad (the rice pilaf contains gluten) and always end up with leftovers. However, I only give it two stars because this place is not safe for celiacs. The kitchen is too small for them to have a safe space on the grill without pita, so if cross contamination is an issue, I do not recommend. We found this out the hard way when we tried to eat here with my celiac brother.

I ordered the lemon chicken. Since the rice pilaf has pasta in it, I opted for a big salad to go with it as they wanted to charge me $6 more for fries. The salad was good, but not filling as it was mainly lettuce. The chicken breast was small and was very dry. I left hungry. My gf son also had a chicken dish and complained of it being really dry. The server let me know that it's a shared kitchen and may not be safe for Celiacs. We took our chances, and today (the day after eating here) he doesn't feel well. Not sure if it's from being glutened or if he's coming down with something. Overall, it was just OK, and I do not plan on returning.

Excellent food, great service. The main gluten-containing items are the pita bread and croutons on a salad. They can easily adjust all the entrees to be gluten free. It’s difficult to get a seat, so make reservations!
