It is hard to find good grape leaves but Ali's are good. Our group was happy with the food overall. Nice little joint with good outside seating.

Coco curry at Madena for First Thursday. I was at Madena for my first time on First Thursday and it couldn't have been a better night. Centrally located in the Pearl District, lots of great people watching. I had the coco curry which was tasty. They do have outside seating but it is limited to only a couple tables. The service was prompt and we got our food very quickly.

Try the chicken coco over rice. Marvelous! Falafels come with pickles inside, which I like but that might not be to everyone's taste. Sauces are refreshing. Gyros are tasty. Prices are good. Try it!

ate here a couple weeks back for the first time. the food was good, and the service was pretty much perfect. the pita and hummus was simple yet memorable.
