Upper Lake​のベスト中近東料理レストラン

We came for a birthday lunch. David provided us with the excellent service.

Found this gem in downtown PA. The meal was excellent! We tried the sweet and sour shrimp and hummus for starters. The cucumber and tomato salad was delicious- very flavorful. We shared the halibut special and ribeye. Both were excellent choices. The presentation and recommendation of how to eat the ribeye (roasted garlic, salt, and butter) - two thumbs up!!!

My friend and I both ordered the prix fixe lunch menu, and we agreed it was a good deal for the quality of the food. Appetizers and mains were especially good. We both had branzino as the entree, plus a dip and dumplings for starters. My baklava for dessert was just OK. My only additional complaint is the upcharge for several items on the prix fixe menu. I ordered an appetizer with an upcharge that I hadn't noticed, and I'd rather that everything was simply offered at the same price, even if it means leaving some items off the prix fixe menu or offering smaller portions. But overall we enjoyed our meal, and in fact, I preferred the lunch experience over dinner given it is a bit quieter in the restaurant and easier to converse.

The staff were so lovely and the food was delicious!

The food is delicious and creative,not the usual predictable far. The chef owner is from Turkey. The breaking of bread appetizer with various Turkish spread like hummus, smoked red pepper compote, olives and pickled vegetables was such fun to share. I had the Anatolian pasta dish with mushrooms, hazelnuts and winter squash while my friend had lamb ribs.
