if you want generous portions of traditional lebanese dishes in a warm, welcoming family environment, this spot is a classic win. the garlic sauce is legendary, the kafta is perfectly seasoned, & the atmosphere feels deeply nostalgic & comforting. the only thing is that the interior decor feels a bit stuck in the past
