It's a fastfood joint. The food is good, but expensive for what it is.
The salad base is swimming in dressing & doesn't pair well with hummus - go for the rice instead.
Ambiance is clean & bright, with real dishes & metal cutlery - so, upscale fastfood.
One word: outstanding.
I have been following this Lebanese restaurant since their very first days, when they were operating mainly as a kitchen & doing takeout only. Then came Time Out Market, & now Crescent. From the beginning, their food has carried that real Beirut soul - honest, warm, deeply flavorful, & made with a level of care you cannot fake.
To be very honest, whoever is leading this kitchen is not just good; they are beyond talented. The food is not simply'delicious.' It is emotional. It tastes like memory, family, tradition, & Beirut itself.
My only sadness is that they never expanded the way they truly deserved to. But maybe that is also the fate of many family businesses: they give everything, they stay humble, they work with heart, & one day they either get tired, close, or sell. & when that happens, you realize that to taste food like this again, you either have to fly to Beirut… or visit it in your dreams.
This place is a rare gem. Respect to the family, the chef, & everyone behind it.One word: outstanding.

Je préparais une soirée à la maison avec 12 personnes & j'avais envie de faire différent & de manger du libanais. J'ai appelé au restaurant afin d'avoir de l'information sur ce qui convenait le mieux pour une gang comme la notre. Nadim a pris le temps de me conseiller & de me donner de l'information sur chacun des plats pour m'aider à faire ma commande! La commande est arrivée à l'heure convenue & avec quelques petites surprises supplémentaires, les invités ont tout simplement adoré le menu ❤? Nadim a d'ailleurs pris le temps d'appeler afin de vérifier que tout était bien arrivé. Un suivi EXTRAORDINAIRE, comme j'en ai rarement vu!
