Knickknacks from abroad and artwork decorate the sandy stucco walls. The dining room is welcoming and so is the service. A sampling of dolmas, hummous, baba ghanoush and tabouli in the Mazza plate is best scooped up with homemade pita bread. Souvlakis and kebobs are popular entrees. Breakfast is a melting pot of American and Mediterranean dishes such as eggs with gyros and pan-fried potatoes. Delightful baklava may be ordered individually or by the dozen. – – High Marks – "The chicken and lamb kabobs are well seasoned and grilled...with the best eggplant and hummus I have…

Premium food, warm, friendly service

by Kerrikter at Citysearch

This place is just all around solid.

The food is fabulous. George puts a great deal of pride and love into his profession and you can tell. It is obvious that begins with fresh, high quality ingredients, and is committed to excellence in preparation and service.

Try the Kashmir Chicken...it is devine, thedescription doesn't sound like something I would enjoy, but tried some of my friend's once, and now I am an addict!

It isn't cheap, it is high value. You can't touch food of this quality for the price. The prices are comparable to other restaurants in the area, probably lower. George cooked for dignitaries back in Lebanon, he created the Kashmir Chicken/Shrimp created for them.

The atmosphere is modest but elegant and romantic.

They always great me with a warm, GENUINE smile, like they are welcoming me into their home. But I must say that I do come in smiling and have been there several times. Still, like other people have said, it doesn't take long for them to know you by name. They are extremely humble and perhaps uncertain socially until they get to know you. They are dedicated to your dining experience.

excellent food...poor service

by drdisco at Citysearch

My wife and I went on the recommendation of many here.

The food was excellent, some of the best here in Dallas.

However, the service had a lot to be desired. It's a family run business...I get it. But, is it too much to ask for the waitresses to simply say hello and thank you? Is it too much to ask for them to have a smile on their face?

They looked like they didn't want to be there. Their attitude made that clear.

I'd say to the owners, be careful, many of us go out to eat for both the food and atmosphere. You have the food down, but your service may cause others like myself, to choose another place to dine at.

  • Pros: food!
  • Cons: service

Great place to eat

by centerdallas at Citysearch

I love their salad, pies, kabobs and hummus. The lady who served us was very friendly. Decor could be updated a little.

  • Pros: Great food
  • Cons: Not open very late

Not trying to start anything but the picture for "starlight93", I can't help but notice that you are an employee at Sevan. I have been in there many times and I recognize you from your picture. While I know you must be proud of where you work or you would not have taken the time to come on here and write what you did, I also don't think this is a fair practice. I also think it is extremely unprofessional for you to call out other reviewers. If you offer a salad on your menu it should be up for review just as any other item is. Lastly, you are exaggerating a bit on the average price of an entree. It is not $9 but closer to $12 or $13. Not that there is a huge difference but that is misleading for potential diners. Just wanted to put this out there.

Sorry to say...

by Ameaux at Citysearch

Going off the reviews on here my boyfriend and I decided to try this place last night. We're new in town and big foodies so we're always looking for restaurants that are unique and have something different to offer.

I hate to hinder the love here but I have to say this place was a huge disappointment. This was not helped by the fact that we drove almost 50 miles round trip (we're in Arlington) to eat here.

Right off the bat I was not impressed by the menu. The food seemed like pretty simple Greek fare that could easily be prepared at home for a lot cheaper. It's not that a lot of the food didn't sound good but again I'm not going to pay $15 for grilled chicken and roasted vegetables that I can prepare in my kitchen any night of the week.

We decided to start off with the roasted eggplant dip. It was okay; not terrible, not great.

We then both decided to get the grilled chicken salad. (Not planned that way just happened to be the only thing that either of us could half way get excited about since at least it did mention a homemade dressing and an array of vegetables)

The salad was a good salad. It was plentiful in chicken and did have all the mentioned vegetables...sort of. My salad had no bell peppers whatsoever, not the first one. My boyfriend's salad, however, was loaded with them. Not even exaggerating I would say he had the equivalent of an entire bell pepper in his salad. Since he loathes bell peppers I felt really bad for him but offered to take some of them off his hands.

The place was not busy at all. Plenty of empty tables which I found odd for a Friday night between 8:00 and 9:00 p.m. Although they were not busy the service was extremely slow. I asked for a refill when our meal came and received one approximately 10 minutes later. When we were finished eating we sat there with our forks and napkins on our plates clearly indicating we were finished eating. After another 10 to 15 minutes of sitting like this with no acknowledgment from the staff I called our server over and asked for our ticket. After another 5 minutes or so she came back from the kitchen, empty handed, looked at our table and did the "Ohh" and went back to return with our ticket a few more minutes later.

Obviously I was not at all impressed by this place. The food was decent but all factors considered I was pretty disappointed to drive 50 miles and spend around $40 (drinks, tax, and tip included) for eggplant dip and two salads.

  • Pros: No wait for a table
  • Cons: Quite a few
