“This award is incredibly meaningful to us because it comes directly from the community,” said Kinalilar. “Our goal from the beginning was to create a place where people could gather, enjoy authentic Mediterranean cuisine, and feel at home. We’re deeply grateful for the support we’ve received from Marin diners.”
