A Middle Eastern restaurant specializing in cold and hot mezzes (small plates to share), kefta brochettes (minced lamb, nuts, onions and spices), various meat and poultry dishes as well as vegetarian specialties. Weekend brunch.
Kazamaza is viewed as a bustling, welcoming spot for Lebanese and Middle Eastern flavors, offering generous portions, a wide mezze and main lineup, and solid value. The food is repeatedly praised for authenticity and bold spices, with standout dishes such as hummus, fattoush, baba ganoush, kafta, lamb shank, rekakat cheese rolls, and kebbeh; the cocktail list and Arak options also get mentions. The atmosphere is described as cozy and lively with warm decor, though it can be very noisy and seating tight when busy, and online reservations or table arrangements can be confusing. Service is often highlighted as fast, attentive and friendly, but a few experiences report slow or impersonal service and limited knowledge on dietary needs, plus occasional issues like cold pita or uneven portions and, in rare cases, hair in a glass. Despite these inconsistencies, the overall impression is a memorable, shareable dining experience with flavorful, well prepared food and good value that makes many diners eager to return.
Artfully reworks traditional Levantine recipes into fresh, memorable, & orignal creations. It offers great variety. Nice atmosphere & attentive service.

Food is good but I did not appreciate being told to vacate the table 30 minutes before my allocated time of 2 hours on my reservation.
Because of this I will hesitate going back there.

La nourriture & le service étaient excellents. J'ai moins aimé le hindbe qui donnait l'impression que les feuilles étaient réduite en purée au lieu d'être une belle salade.
Belle ambiance, bon service, & nourriture délectable. Seul hic, réservation prend seulement deux heures (pour le souper), & donc il y a un sentiment d'être poussez vers la sortie & de ne pas pouvoir profiter pleinement de la soirée. Politique qu'adopte plusieurs restaurant depuis la COVID. Dommage.
Belle ambiance , bonne bouffe & bon service , prix au marché , inaccessible pour les personnes en fauteuil & difficile d'accès pour les parents avec poussette & enfant en bas âge (j'aurais aimé avoir cette info avant ) , l'espace est optimisé pour la restauration entre adulte, peut-être bruyant si plein .Merci .
Chicken was not cooked through fully I mentioned it to the waitress who made it seem like I didn't know what I was talking about. The chicken was pink :/. They did nothing about it so we just ate our other food. They also made us move tables as they said they needed Our table for a group of 6 but they moved us only to seat another couple in our place which was rude & frustrating. I came here for my birthday with my husband & I've been here before but this experience made me feel unhappy. Overall food was good the service was not the greatest.
