From the moment we walked in, we felt warmly welcomed by the ambiance & the staff, but what truly made our experience exceptional was the personal touch provided by the owner, Maurice. The vegetarian entrée options at Aya are simply amazing. Each dish is crafted with care, bursting with authentic flavors that transport you straight to Lebanon. We started with a variety of appetizers, & every bite was a delightful surprise of rich & fresh ingredients. Maurice went above & beyond to make our visit memorable. He personally ensured that our main courses were tailored to our preferences, creating the most delicious falafel I've ever tasted & a wonderfully flavorful okra rice dish. It was clear that he takes immense pride in his restaurant, & his passion for serving high-quality, authentic Lebanese food shone through in every detail. The combination of outstanding food, warm hospitality, & a cozy atmosphere makes Aya Lebanese Restaurant a must-visit. Whether you're a vegetarian or just love good food, I can't recommend this place enough. We'll definitely be returning to experience more of Maurice's culinary magic!
This restaurant has literally ruined Lebanese fast food for us. It is so above & beyond good. I think it took 6 months before I had Amir or boustan. The sauce, the meat, the sides. I don't like fatoush salad, but that one, I cleaned the bowl. Get the sample menu, try everything. Get a bottle of Lebanese red to wash it down. Ask for another basket of their HOMEMADE breads. The portions are very generous, so come hungry. I'd have one constructive criticism, it would be nice to finish the meal with a nice Lebanese coffee or Arab tea. But I'm nitpicking here.
Super bonne cuisine !! Le Chef Fernando est super sympathique. Tout est savoureux.
