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.

I have been recommended to try this place long time ago . We went on a slow day which was good for us. Thr food is typically lebanese , old school. I ordered a lot of appetizer, most of them were great. The fatoush however could be enhanced & was salty, it lacks too many items if I am comparing to thr remaining app. The Main dish had chicken( excellent ) , kafta ( don't try it ) & meat ( ok, but could be better). I found it too expensive for what I was getting. We ordered app & one main dish with 2 soft drink & a beer. The service was good & friendly. The only downside of this place is it is tooooo old, urgently need à to be revamped, but I guess people likes it that way. I always compare resto with the one from dubai & believe the difference is crazy.

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.

Food is good. Although too expensive for what you're getting. Daou used to be more affordable but now I feel is no longer worth it. Shame I won't be going back as often.

Tout était délicieux ! Nous avons particulièrement aimé les feuilles de vigne & le filet mignon. Nous y retournerons certainement ! Par contre, toujours la même chanson en boucle sur la télévision...
