Kefi offers a cozy and trendy setting perfect for a relaxing dinner! 🌟 We started with their delectable small plates - the chicken and short rib were bursting with flavor. The standout was definitely the homemade baklava with pistachio ice cream; simply divine!

While the service was top-notch, I'd recommend sticking to cocktails, as a few dishes didn’t quite meet expectations. The atmosphere is inviting, and the staff genuinely care about your experience. A great spot if you're looking for drinks and dessert! Can’t wait to go back... 🍷😊
