Opened 1 week ago

Agora : Formerly known as Jack’s Restaurant (American food)

Jack’s Restaurant, which is more of a bar was what we were limited to fo dinner in this are. Now we have Agora! It’s a trendy and elegant restaurant with something unique that other eateries don’t have in the neighborhood…THE CONCEPT!!!

I will say it’s more like a tapas place where the focus is on small plates of food. It’s a place you can come to after work for happy hour or simply go to share it with a friend and savor the Mediterranean/Turkish food by trying several plates in a fantastic atmosphere.

AMBIANCE 4 out of 5

FOOD 4/5 – Even though it was great, it was a little bit oily.

SERVICE 4/5- great service, waiter very knowledgeable, always someone to refill our glasses..

THE + : The bread, which was amazing and similar to pizza crust, was on the table with the tapenade .

Freebies: Mineral Water

Service: was very professional.

PRICE: a little expensive for what you have? on your plate, but with the bread that they? constantly give you can leave full…

Bon Appetit! Jonathan,
