This was terrible and such a ripoff. We waited an hour to order because the owner is also the chef and waiter because he's too cheap to hire some staff (at least an assistant, c'mon!) . After waiting an hour he came by and told us to hurry up and order because he was very busy. He said he'd help us out by making 3 plates and each would serve 3. Each plate was like 1 meal, one of chicken , one with lamb, and one vegiterrean.
The chicken was COLD in the middle which means it had been precooked and reheated. All in all for about $16 of ingredients he charged us $60 a plate totalling 180 just for the terrible food! They also charge you 20 bucks just for sitting down. A friend came by to say hi and have 1 drink at the end of the meal and he charged her 20 just for sitting down.
Drinks are also waaaaayy over priced and he's really rude which is a shame because he set up a nice looking business.
Please find another place, with the way he rips you off on the price, you might as well take a cab somewhere else if you need to.
