Nice restaurant! The food are really good. We ordered a grill combo plate and it’s perfect for two people. The appetizer is eggplant salad and the flavor is really balanced! Also, waitress service from Tubga is fantastic!! She’s thoughtful!

Just wanted to try a new spot for Greek food and saw this place juat opened up so we decided to go check it out. Glad we did. Our server Tubja (sorry for mispelling) was so very nice and offered great choices for us to try. The food was awesome and the drinks were even better. Bit pricey but its worth checking out.

Tugba served us tonight. We were seated promptly & throughly enjoyed every dish! We ordered the lentil soup, arugula salad, Turkish meatballs, followed by a lovely Turkish tea & Turkish coffee. But I must admit I was astounded by their beautifully presented Kunafa dessert. It was absolutely delicious.

We're from the eastern part of the country; come to visit, and they're definitely better than most restaurants in the US. The mixed appetizer platter quickly became our favorite. The cocktails were also great. The service was smooth, everyone was friendly, and the atmosphere and location were perfect. I'll definitely be back; it's a must-try.

The food here is amazing and affordable! Our server was super friendly and helpful, and the food arrived fast. We had the cheese borek with feta and mozzerella (delicious--different than other boreks we've had in that this one was flat), the Mimoza Appetizer mix (lovely!) and the chicken wrap (amazing!). The rice pudding with cinnamon was a highlight.The atmosphere is decent as well, though perhaps a bit kitsch.Generally, I'd absolutely recommend this place!

Mimoza Mediterranean really left a great impression! Devram and Emily were incredibly pleasant and genuinely friendly, even on a surprisingly busy weeknight. Everything is made to order, and you can truly taste the freshness in each dish.We tried the falafel plate with a Majestik Syrah, the grilled Kofte paired with an oatmeal stout, and a warm, comforting lentil soup. For dessert, the Havuc baklava and Turkish coffee were the perfect ending.The place is cozy, easy to find right in downtown San Diego, and definitely worth the drive. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely time here. Our barterders were very friendly and made it fun to sit at the bar. We throughly enjoyed our cocktails. Chicken Adona was tender and nicely spiced. Falafel was really tasty! Everything was great except pita bread wasn't as good.

Fantastic! The food was amazing, as was the ambiance and service. The falafel & hummus appetizer and lamb shish kabob plate were both delicious. I accidentally left my camera behind at the restaurant, and the owner went above and beyond in getting it back to me. Parking was easy to find in the very cute Gaslamp Quarter, and it is a short walk from waterfront hotels. Highly recommended!
