The restaurant has the slowest service I have ever experienced. We arrived at 7:15pm, were seated at 8:00pm.....can't belive I even waited this long. It's 9:04pm now and we are still waiting for our dinner. Had to ask a waiter to take our order and bring bread 20 minutes after we were seated. So disapointed. Hope the food is good.....

This is a diamond in the rough: a wonderful restaurant buried in a strip mall in northeast Philadelphia.Riza Canca and his wife, Gul are the creative and culinary force behind this Middle Eastern-style restaurant. Everything is made from scratch with careful attention to the quality of ingredients. Riza is a trained Nutritionist: his menu is targeted toward the health conscious foodie. Fish is expertly prepared, as are all the side dishes. Choose the Bronzini - a Mediterranean Seabass - similar to a Red Snapper. If you have 2 or more choosing this fish as an entree, Riza will select a large one and serve it on a board, surrounded by vegetables. Rice pudding, when available, is fabulous!The only reason not to assign 5 stars is the location and the underwhelming restroom. The service is incredibly attentive; you are encouraged to BYOB.
