that's for 6 people, quality restaurant fed, for less than $20/head.

it's ALL about the BYO!
i over-estimated, the six of us got out of there for 88 bucks, all in!

we feasted like kings on hummus, babaghannouj, tabbouleh, falafels, dolmas, rice, grilled veggies, and beef, lamb, chicken, & kafta kebabs.

and so freaking tasty! family style platters are such a great way to economize.

as is BYO. we paid a total of $6 in corkage fees for our two bottles of wine.
