About

Amara serves authentic Lebanese cuisine focusing on traditional flavor profiles and fresh ingredients. The menu highlights classic mezze selections including creamy hummus, smoky baba ghanouj, and crisp falafel prepared with aromatic spice blends. Hearty grilled meat platters feature marinated tawook skewers and seasoned kafta served alongside fragrant rice or warm pita bread. The kitchen emphasizes time-honored cooking techniques that produce deep textures and balanced acidity across every dish. Fresh vegetable salads tossed in zesty lemon and olive oil vinaigrettes accompany savory pastries filled with spinach or melted cheese. The functional setting centers on the delivery of consistent, high-quality plates that represent the core pillars of Levantine gastronomy. Diners engage with a menu designed to showcase the inherent richness of Mediterranean culinary staples through simple and effective preparation methods.

Review Summary

Amara offers a polarizing dining experience following its recent change in ownership and renovations. While many patrons praise the restaurant for its fresh, flavorful shawarma, generous portions, and welcoming atmosphere, others express disappointment regarding increased prices, smaller servings, and inconsistent quality compared to the past. The majority of feedback highlights the establishment as a clean, friendly, and authentic destination for Lebanese cuisine, though a segment of customers remains critical of recent operational shifts and occasional issues with food preparation or delivery service.

I've been ordering Lebanese food from this restaurant for a long time, & it recently came under new ownership. The restaurant has been completely renovated, & the place is now very clean, modern, & welcoming. The new owner is very friendly, kind, & attentive.

The food is fresh, delicious, & offers a more variety of authentic Lebanese dishes. The portions are a little smaller than they used to be under the previous owner, but they are still generous enough, & the prices are very reasonable for the quality & quantity. Hopefully the portions will become a bit bigger in the future! 😊

Overall, we had a great experience & will definitely be coming back. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for fresh & authentic Lebanese food!

I had a Lebanese beef shawarma plate & honestly, every bite was amazing. From the tabbouleh to the fries & the juicy beef, everything just melted in my mouth. The place was also very clean, & the staff were really friendly with great customer service. One of the best shawarmas I've had!💯👌
