We love MidEast cuisine and were hoping to love this place. There's a fixed first course of "7 Salads", and a choice of about 5 mains for the second course, followed by a date cake with a salted ice cream as the 3rd course. We chose the Lamb Neck for the entree and included the wine pairing. The first wine was a 3 oz pour of a Bandol Rose with the salads, then a 3oz pour of a Moroccan Syrah with the lamb and a dessert wine with the date cake. The Rose and the Syrah were fine. For our taste, a dessert wine, no matter how good, is too much sweet on sweet to go with a sweet dessert. Also, a 3 oz pour of wine is fine if there are several courses. However, with just 2 savory courses, I found myself running out of the Rose during the first course and with a delay before receiving the lamb, I was already nursing the last drops of Syrah by the time we received it. I could have made more effort to order another pour of Syrah, but it would have been nice if they had noticed I was low and inquire (before we were finished with the lamb). My recommendation would be to skip the wine pairing and just order a full pour of your preferred wines. It would have been a better value and more enjoyable to get a full 5 oz Rose with the Salads and use a full pour of the Syrah for both the Lamb and as a contrast with the date cake. Or, replace the dessert wine with another pour of the Syrah. The Lamb was excellent and enough for us, though the serving may be a little light for big eaters. It comes with a token amount of deep fried veg which for us was too heavy and insufficient. We'd have preferred some lightly cooked vegetable and the inclusion of some Farro or Couscous. It would have been a fairer value, rather offering them at extra charge. For the "7 Salads" we liked the yogurt with trout eggs and the small serving of fresh vegetable but would have preferred a fresher take overall. Along with 2 "Miro" oysters and tip, our meal for 2 came to $350.
