    The morracan lamb sliders are the best hamburgers we have ever had. We had the hummus and olive & pickled veggie appetizers which went perfectly with a beer flight.

    A big grocery store with a ton of freshly prepared options. This is a pretty cool place for lunch; if I worked nearby I'd eat here everyday. Try the Shawarma and get a craft beer from the bar.

    Credit the long, sleek marble bar and its eccentric wine and beer selection, or the gelato case and menu of Lebanese-inspired pizzas.

    Great place to grab a bite before a show at Toyota Center, but the kitchen can get overwhelmed by big crowds.

    Brunch @ your own risk. IMO, very pretentious menu. Not sure if they're just trying to hard but the lamb & waffle didn't work. The $2 surcharge for kielbasa on the scramble got me 3 slivers of sausage

    The queso and chili was pretty good. The halibut was over cooked and sent back. Meh.

    The service is awful!! Be prepared to wait a hour to be served, have your food come incorrectly & have to go to the bar & order drinks yourself.
