Carousel Restaurant@Glendale ★★

Middle Eastern/ Mediterranean Food. I have been waiting to try this restaurant 10 years ago because of their raw beef. The raw beef tastes too much like cheese. I think Korean raw beef tastes better. The Cheese Turnover is good. Their best eggplant dish is Mousakka. I think it's so-so. All these 3 dishes are appetizers.
