It was late after a show we were hungry with no place to go. We googled restaurants and found this spot. What a refreshing little place. The food was fantastic, the service was fast, the place was clean, and the owner was a wonderfully kind man who met our every need. I highly recommend anything on the menu as well as the hot tea and all the wonderful deserts.

Stopped in town for lunch. I will tell you Remi runs a beautiful shop with delicious food and amazing hospitality. The combo platter was filled with a nice combo of items to try the lineup. It did not disappoint in the least. Remi was hospitable to my party and I would recommend you or any of your friends come have a sit down. Don’t forget to wrap up with some tea and baklava.

The food was delicious, the waitress was very professional, and the rest of the staff were friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended!
