Favorite of ours when visiting Hanford! Let's be honest, this town lacks an abundance of good places to eat; However, this is one of the few! This place offers a sit down, relaxed atmosphere with attentive service and tasty food. Best part? It's all very affordable for what you get!If you are looking for dinner in Hanford this is your best bet.

Ambiance: Very nice! 3 separate indoor dining spaces--1 next to bar, another in back & 3rd is banquet room (where we were. Note: Banquet room isn't accessible. 2 steps on both front & back of room). Otherwise, rest seems accessible. Service was very good. They had the Yelp Elite offerings printed as a menu. Order:Greek Salad w/Beef: So so good! Lots of beef that was tender, well-seasoned & cooked beautifully medium-rare. Nice size salad overall. Gyro & Fries: Gyro meat nicely moist, well-seasoned & tasty. TONS of fries...so many fries! My tiny critique is more veggies & tzatziki sauce would be great. I asked for extra sauce & no problem. Great value for the price. Hummus & Falafel Platter (substitute hummus for baba ganoush): Baba ganoush was tasty w/chopped tomato garnish. Falafel were nicely crispy outside & light & fluffy inside. Good seasoning!Overall, I see why they're so highly rated. First time to Hanford, came here from Fresno (50 min away) for a Yelp Elite event. Cute, busy Main Street area. Food was good enough that we'll come back here again.Also, got free plastic wine glasses from Yelp.

I've been wanting to try this place as I haven't come across many Mediterranean spots in Hanford, and I finally was able to on a Sunday afternoon. It wasn't busy, and the servers were friendly and attentive. It's a very casual restaurant with plenty of seats in the back. My family and I ordered the grilled tilapia and lamb chops. The lamb chops were delicious! The grilled tilapia was good too, but the mushrooms that came with it were way too tart. It also came with hummus and pocket bread (pita), and we enjoyed it. I didn't think the rice pilaf was as bland as some have mentioned--it was just right to let the flavors of the meats through. For the price, I wish there was a bit more meat/fish in the dishes--the plates were big because they came with a lot of rice & salad. I would come back if I was craving Mediterranean and wanted something local and to try their other dishes.

This is the second time I ate here. This time the rice was cooked perfectly and everything was great. We wanted to try the Dubai chocolate which is what brought us in. I think next time I would get the chicken kabob dinner option as it comes on a kabob and I feel would be more flavorful and juicy that way and then just share it since it is a large portion. The kids are picky so daughter had cheeseburger which she said was good and other use the coconut shrimp and absolutely loved it. Definitely will be coming back.

Friendly service. Quiet atmosphere. My First time here but my son loves it. Large portions. Food was amazing! Reasonably priced.

I had an amazing dinner at this Persian restaurant! The service was impeccable, with friendly staff who made great recommendations. The food was incredible - the tender lamb chops paired with saffron rice were a perfect match. The fresh herbs and spices made every bite burst with flavor. The ambiance was just as impressive, with soft lighting and Persian music that added to the intimate feel of the place. It's definitely a must-try for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Persian cuisine.A Perfect Persian Feast

I came in close to closing time and was greeted by friendly employees. I promptly ordered a spicy chicken Greek salad, which came highly recommended by an employee. My salad was both delicious and filling. Of course, I saved room for dessert and had the baklava, both pistachio and walnut. Overall, an amazing restaurant!

This was my first dine-in experience with Mediterranean food. Our waitress was sweet and offered us great recommendations. Appetizers:-Yalunchi: Pretty good (not sure if served cold is normal)-Burak: Fried. Cheese. Need I say more? Yummy!Entrees: (comes with salad and rice - one plate had yummy fries instead) - Ask for the dressing on the side. It seemed like ours was too heavily dressed.- Mosakka: Eggplant was good with the meat, cheese and nuts on top. I probably would've eaten more without the skin?- Combo Kebab: Chicken and the Lamb/Beef was good. Steak a little tough Dessert:Mouse pie to end it on a yummy, rich note **Not bad for the price we paid

Came here for lunch on a nice Saturday bc I saw it had lots of great reviews. Ordered the Kafka kebab and the kid had the combo. Hit the spot. Friendly service and love the chill music in the background. Will come back the next time we are in town.

I love coming here for their lamb chops. good staff and amazing food. I do wish their dessert display on the counter was more appealing. I'd probably take the entire box . Haha
