We were there a couple of weeks ago and I enjoyed it. I had read the bad reviews too and wasn't sure what to expect. We got drinks (sangria) and a bunch of appetizers, including the Kouzzina sampler. I will say that the skewers on the sampler were very spicy! We got the lamb meatballs -- I was toying with ordering the lamb burger but if it had the same level of spice as the meatball I wouldn't have been able to get through a whole burger. The service was fine -- our waitress didn't stand out either way in terms of the service -- not above or below average, just fine. I'd probably go there again because I enjoy that type of cuisine.
