Restaurant Review: Agora

Their yogurt dip is SO good.
It's been a while since I've written a restaurant review but I'm on spring break now and finally have the time to write this one. I've been to the Mediterranean restaurant, Agora, for bunch twice and both times were fantastic. They have a $30 all-you-can-eat brunch with bottomless drinks. You can pick any kind of drink you want; you are not limited to just mimosas or bloody marys. Since I'm not very adventurous at 11 in the morning, I went with a simple mimosa for my meal.

Their brunch menu includes staple brunch items like French toast, omelettes, and eggs benedict but also a selection of Turkish cheeses, Greek yogurts, and imported cured beef. The waiters keep the pita bread flowing so you can use them with your hummus and yogurt dips. The fixed price menu allows you to order whatever you want off the menu so you can experiment with different foods. The portions are on the smaller side so you can share items and try several dishes in one sitting. Everything on the brunch menu is delicious and there are plenty of options for guests who are gluten-free or vegetarian. I love their selection of cheeses which are so fresh and full of flavor. Also, their French toast is incredible. If you're in the mood for more lunch items then there is a full selection of flat bread sandwiches, salads, and other cold plate dishes. I personally love their grilled cheese sandwich with a side of tomato soup.

Plus, the waiters are super friendly and attentive even though the place is bustling with patrons on Sunday morning. This place is great for a big group of friends. I haven't had a chance to try their lunch or dinner menus but I would expect that they are just as good as their brunch menu.

I can't recommend this place enough. I know I'll be going back soon!
