We've only done takeout but it's been great. The ambience of the restaurant seems good- when picking up you have to enter the dining area. The food is delicious! We haven't experienced dine in service but take out was fine.

Fantastic spot. If you want an authentic cultural dining experience, go on one of their music/belly-dancing nights. Food was amazing, and the price very reasonable.

Service here was excellent, platter for 2 was filling and well worth the $76. Belly dancing 9pm-12am on the weekends make a resi you won’t be disappointed as the falafel and the kibbe nayye was excellent. Garlic sauce is a must ask. Looking forward to returning.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Byblos last Saturday night. The food was incredible but the service was even better! Our server, Katherine, was so sweet, personable and accommodating! She gave us great recommendations on what to order as it was our first time in and she continued to check on us throughout the night refreshing our drinks before they were even empty and clearing dirty plates as soon as we were done with them. We really enjoyed our time! The only thing I would say is get rid of the carpet!! It’s kind of gross to have carpet in a restaurant but other than that 10/10!!

Byblos does not disappoint. They offer Boston's Lebanese food's gold standard. Lovely entertainment. My only complaint is that I don't go often enough. Maurice, the owner, checks on every table with genuine Lebanese hospitality. The servers are professionals. Impeccable food and fine dining. I'm always proud to bring friends to watch the live music and dancing along with beautiful food and first-class service.

Very nice restaurant. Food was very good. We were a party of six plus a child and ordered a variety of foods all of which were generous in portion and very tasty. The service, however, could have been much better. I asked for a wine list. Server came back after a while and said they did not have enough wine lists, all are being used, and are waiting to get some and will be back. I finally got the wine list and ordered a bottle of wine. The server came back after an extended time with a glass of wine. I said I did not order a glass I ordered a bottle. Waited a while again and finally got a bottle for the table. I also told the server at the beginning that I would like the check as I am treating my guests. Well, when the check came out she put it in the middle of the table instead of giving it to me. However, the big snafu was when I got the check. Total bill was something like $375 which I thought was reasonable. I put down my credit card and the server came back with a charge of $525 or something close to that without any explanation. When server was called over and questioned she said she had given us the wrong check originally. We told her she should have explained that to us. In a final analysis, I think I just had a very inexperienced server. I would definitely go back as I do not believe the server's poor performance was a true indication of the good quality food.

We had a great choice for 4 of us to sample everything. It was really good. We also got to enjoy some fun entertainment - music and dancing. The people there were super friendly and gave us great recommendations.

Overall, this is always a great experience with amazing food and the added treat of music & belly dancing. We did wait 20-30 minutes before a wait staff was assigned to our table. Once Ryan was assigned, he was the perfect combination of attentive but not hovering. Our friends, who had never been to Byblos, seemed to really enjoy it. We were glad we could still hear the music and see the dancer, but were glad we were in the quieter non music room. We will return!

Really fresh, wonderful food. So delicious. The menu can give a lovely meal for vegetarians, vegans and omnivores. Recommend the family feast #2! A welcoming atmosphere for everyone.

Very disappointed. I've been coming here for many many years. I can no longer afford to eat here. No more luncheon specials and everthing is now a La carte! I found an old menu at home and everything is at least $7 less. All entrees used to with hummus and salad. Now salads are $2 extra and they even charge $1 for feta cheese! On the dessert menu the mamoul has gone from $7 to$12. I can buy a package around the corner for $12. Unfortunately won't be back unless it's for appetizers

Byblos is always fabulous. Shrimp kabin, salmon, and beef kabobs were had. We always wonder how they make the hummus. It is absolutely the best any of us has ever had. And celiacs are absolutely safe.
