About

Daou delivers an authentic exploration of Lebanese culinary traditions through a menu defined by robust flavors and precise preparations. Patrons encounter a wide array of classic mezze including velvety hummus, smoky baba ghanoush, and crispy falafel that anchor the traditional dining experience. The kitchen emphasizes the use of fresh herbs, high-quality tahini, and charcoal-grilled meats served alongside warm, pillowy pita bread. Each dish reflects a commitment to Middle Eastern seasoning profiles featuring sumac, zaatar, and garlic. The interior space offers a straightforward environment focused on the functionality of the meal rather than decorative embellishments. This establishment remains a dependable destination for those seeking consistent, culturally significant preparations of regional staples. The menu focuses on high-volume production of staple plates that prioritize structural integrity and traditional spice blends over modern fusion techniques.

This Restaurants has been around for decades, & it because the food is made with care. This is homestyle Lebanese cuisine, most dishes are served family style. Its our go to place for family dinners & with friends. Recommed the Fattoush salad, hummus & babaganoush, the warm vine leaves filled with meat & rice, & a mixed plate of chicken & filet mignon cubes, with Fries ( to die for) & some rice. If you have room for dessert, you didnt order enough 🤣 its clean healthy food with so much flavour, made fresh to order.

This is an old school & traditional family run restaurant. No glitz no glam, simple & straight forward. We ordered traditional hummus, which was super smooth & tasty. Fattouch & tabouleh which were fresh & well seasoned. We also got the coriander potatoes which were drowning in lemon juice along with shish kebab, kafta, lamb & salmon. The meats & fish were all cooked perfectly. We did find that everything was salty & overall all had a very citrusy taste which isn't necessarily bad but lacked diversity. The waiters are friendly & quick & we left feeling quite full as the portions are very generous. The other customers were all Lebanese so i think this is definitely a favourite for some.

I have been a regular at this restaurant for many years. I am vegan & they have a large selection available for vegans. I recommend the yaprak vine leaves (vegetable), fattoush, tabbouleh, vegetable kebbe, hummus tahini, loubieh, & the Hendbeh. The food is fresh & the service is always very friendly & efficient..this is why it continues to be one of my favourites.

I live in the area & have always heard good things about this restaurant so I finally had a chance to check it out.

I can't believe I took so long to discover this little gem. Food was fresh & well prepared.

Service was very good. We had a new waiter but a more experience waiter kept an eye on things & it all worked well.

A little pricey. But I don't mind paying for good food. I'll be back!
