We made reservations & started with Moussaka as the appetizers. For the main dishes we had the Omnivore with chicken, Carnivore along with Piri & it was so delicious ❤?❤? We particularly loved the garlic sauce & the basmati rice & lentil rice 😇😇 The chicken & beef were so well-made & had moisture & each bite was a gourmet's delight ❤?❤?

Recommended by a friend, we tried out the food recently & loved it. We had the chicken DJAJ pita roll & it was moist & tasty. We ordered a combo (which included amazing cold lemonade, great garlicky potatoes (batatas) &/or fresh Fatouche green salad). Dining room is spacious & there's even a terrace in warmer weatheView more
Ordered a beef sandwich & a shish taouk plate. The beef was very good while the chicken plate, not so much. It was dry, tough & under seasoned. Too bad, the beef tasted just like the one you get in the Plateau so I was expecting the same for the chicken..but for some reason, they didn't season it very well.View more

Always a warm welcome & smiles from all staff; servers, cooks & kitchen staff. Joyful & pleasant decor, lots of REAL plants...tastefully decorated during holidays, but not overly so. Don't feel rushed to leave whenever is over, ok to linger, whether alone or in a group (had a small group gathering of ladies in our 50s in the winter & we appreciated being able to actually hear one another speaking unlike many other restaurants where to noise level, music or acoustics of location make it difficult to have conversations). Some of us are of mixed Lebanese origins so we really appreciated the homemade Lebanese & fusion dishes. My personal favorites are the samac (fish) sandwich & the Thai fusion (chicken instead of beef) sandwichwith peanut sauce. Love the homemade lemonade with hint of mint.View more
Amazing fresh food & great ambiance. Their omnivore chicken plate is to die for. We also had the djaj combi with potatoes & garlic sauce. Very clean place & the plants add a great ambiance. We will definitely be backView more
The food was amazing, the atmosphere was lovely, but I have to take 3 stars off because the staff doesn't understand the importance of allergies. I told the server I couldn't have dairy & asked what on the menu were safe options. They said some dishes contained mayo (mayo does not contain dairy 😑) & when I suggested the salad & chicken wrap she said those were fine. Cut to several hours later & I've been dealing with the consequences of an allergic reaction... Maybe the chicken was marinated in milk/yogurt? I would have much preferred the server say that they don't know, or ask the chef, instead of having to spend a sleepless night. It's luckily not an anaphylactic allergy, so I was willing to risk it despite the sketchy answers from the server, but I can't recommend this place to anyone with dietary restrictions. Tasted good though.View more
I am not Lebanese myself but I love their food! It is a good throwback to the middle east. They serve all kinds of foods but what I chose to order for my first time is potatoes with garlic, freshly squeezed lemonade & a pita chicken sandwich. The food was delicious & felt homemade, the service was excellent & the restaurant was clean. Overall very nice experience!View more
