According to the Mercury News (2007), "The menu in the main restaurant is equally eclectic (compared to its wine lounge), with unusual dishes such as pumpkin borani, which features spicy peppers and garlic, and aushak, pasta filled with leek and cilantro and topped with garlic-yogurt sauce and sautéed ground beef, and simpler starters and entrees such as grilled salmon and beef, shrimp, lamb, and chicken kabobs. The owners have designed their menu to accommodate the palates of those who like spicier, more exotic dishes and those who prefer milder, well-prepared salads, vegetables, and grilled seafood and meat.” Come experience this treasure in Downtown Pleasanton in either the main dining room or our relaxing wine lounge.

    Nice ambiance, interesting cocktails, timely/friendly service and good food. The only downside is seating in an area off to the side of the main dining room that looks like a dingy corner of the restaurant. We were initially seated there and when we asked the hostess to sit in the main dining room we were told that, since we were a party of three, we couldn't be seated there as it was only for tables of two. When a waiter saw our disappointment, he told us that he would combine two tables and seat us there. After that the evening was enjoyable! Hats off to an exceptional wait staff. Customer service training required for the host.
