Wow! First time to Oxford and my son suggested eating here. Very cool vibe, great outside eating area, fantastic food - tons to choose from. Cocktails were as good as the food! Was crowded but didn't take long to be seated. Highly recommend checking it out.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Do not eat here if you are vegan. Falafel and the pita has egg and there’s literally nothing else you can get. There’s also no tahini. I’ve never experienced anything like this before with a Mediterranean place. Such a bummer. Our waitress always sweet and amazing though. She checked if anything we ordered had animal products before sending the order to the kitchen. Very grateful for her help but still will never come back.

Awarded the best margaritas in town, they are half price on Saturdays, super friendly staff. All around a great experience. We did get there at peak lunch time with a party of 7 so we had to wait for a table. A party of 4 or less is practically no wait at all, even during peak hours. Food was great and I don't think we had any leftovers, which is strange for my family. We tried the pimento hummus as an appetizer and it was surprisingly delicious.
