About

If you’re fortunate enough to have experienced a meal in the Middle East, you know all about their warmth, ambiance and extravagance. Whether it’s on a terrace accompanied by an afternoon tea, or sipping Arak in the evening, the “joie de vivre” can’t be missed.

Having successfully recreated the magic, our chef Joe Awad and his team have put together a menu featuring traditional flavours reimagined with a modern flare.

Our friendly and attentive staff will make you feel as though you’ve walked through the fabric of time to the other side of the world. Prepare your tastebuds, they’re in for an amazing experience!

L'intérieur est beau & invitant, & la bonne musique chaleureuse rajoute sa note à l'ambiance.
Ayant pris un bon déjeuner ce matin-là, je ne voulais pas manger des oeufs à nouveau, donc la crêpe à la baklava & pistaches. Délicieux!
Le service, quoique les deux serveuses étaient sympathiques, souriantes, il y avait un peu de confusion au moment de payer avec des erreurs sur les factures, qui s'est réglée au final. C'est probablement singulier comme expérience & non habituel, par contre, ce fut l'expérience de mon groupe. Mais. Point d'un point de vue général, je vais définitivement y retourner! Je recommande!

Je suis allé pour mon anniversaire avec mes amis & nous avons passé un moment mémorable. La serveuse était professionnel & sympathique & le menu à partager de 75$ était parfait pour goûter les merveilles libanaises authentiques. Fortement recommandé!
