Wonderful authentic Mediterranean cuisine, great service too
Everything we ordered was outstanding. The Taboulleh was crisp and fresh, the Chef Borek perfectly flaky, and the Shrimp Saute with Lemon Sauce was bright and flavorful. The rice pilav was the ideal pairing. The Seafood Ravioli with Shrimp was rich, creamy, and full of flavor without being heavy. Service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. You can tell every dish is made with care. Highly recommend Alihan’s for anyone who loves fresh Mediterranean food done right.
This place is awesome! We're not from Pitt but every time we're in the city, we hit up this place. Simply outstanding.
