The food here is delicious. Really good, very fresh and flavorful. The meat was extremely tender and the hummus was some of the best I’ve ever had. 5 Stars for the food alone. The restaurant is also very nicely decorated. Looks very cozy, clean and modern.
Yes, this is a QR code menu restaurant. I saw at least 3 people leave because they didn’t have a menu. I will say; it doesn’t cost much to have a single menu printed up and posted on the door or sitting at the front desk. Most places will at least have the option of a single physical menu for people to see as they come in. It makes a bigger deal than you’d think for business.
During my visit; they were out of a lot of the menu items as well. Not a huge deal but they should let you know upfront. Which leads to my main and only issue – the service. I know they are a new business but it was quite slow considering there were only two other people in the restaurant at the time. I feel like it’s one of those places where you have to go out of your way to get the attention of the waiter or server. They don’t check in with you; you just have to get their attention or else you’ll be waiting there forever. I ordered coffee and they forgot it and I actually just left without getting it because it was taking so long and so much effort to get them to come back to my table – I just didn’t bother with it. They were very polite and professional just not super attentive.

We went on the first day of soft opening. They were still working out some of the kinks. I’m not going to say anything negative about the service because it was his first day, but he was very nice. This restaurant is beautifully decorated but was missing a few things, like a trash can in the restroom and salt and pepper shakers. We opted for the lunch special and be warned- it was SO much food. We ended up sharing most of the dishes and took the rest home for dinner. I LOVE carbs and the bread basket they brought out was incredible. We will definitely be back!

Great job what they did to the old Texas De Brazil. The food is top notch. My wife had the doner and I had the shish kabob. My boy loved the Adana kabob. The Turkish ezme? and falafel were tasty too. Highly recommend. Fresh bread basket is special with the app.

Flawless execution. The best Mediterranean food I’ve ever had as well as my companions. The lentil soup was rich and delicate. It was flavored perfectly. (I added a touch of salt as a personal preference) The hummus was pretty standard but the Baba Ganoush was light but punchy in flavor while not overpowering. The lamb Adana kebab and the lamb kebab plates my friend and I had were executed flawlessly. Both were seasoned well and perfectly cooked as well as the salad and rice. The dressing on the salad was something I’ve never had before. I have no idea what it was but I wish I could take a bottle home with me. Even the tahani sauce was perfect. Smooth and light and not overpoweringly tangy like you get at most place. There’s a number of Mediterranean restaurants here in town and I’ve eaten at them all. But only one has the taste that makes me think someone’s “teta” is the one running the kitchen. And that’s this place.
It’s also connected to the best dessert spot in mobile. Yummy! Is the name of it.

Soooooo let’s just say I was excited about trying this place out and I was not pleased.. My husband and I went for dinner and when we arrived there was hardly no one there . Guy greeted us.. about maybe 10 mins later a waiter came over to take our order. Placed our orders and asked for water…. next thing we know, he’s outside… NO WATER. And this after at least 10 more mins went by….. So the guy that greeted us came over we told him about the water. He apologized and brought us these small glasses of water. NO REFILLS even after he looked at our table several times… So I finally turn around and we looking eyeballs to eyeballs.. I said do you not give refills on water and he was like sure and trys to go get us some. At this point we wasjke we don’t even want the water now because you looked over here several times.. keep your water bring out check… Service was horrible.. food was not all that. Rice was cold. Honestly we were not please… I don’t have the desire to go back.

It is with regret that the restaurant appears to have closed permanently. We had the opportunity to visit a second time, only to find it no longer in operation. We truly appreciated the authentic cuisine and the wonderful atmosphere it provided.

fantastic new spot. Food was great, service was attentive, and it retains the atmosphere of the old Texas de Brazil which was very nice. Planning to return repeatedly.
Best baba ganoush and Turkish coffee in town
