Restaurant lied about being halal over the phone. Was double charged for a place and food quality was questionable (random hard bits when eating).

Had a Cosmo at the bar while I waited for my chicken shawarma plate. Bartender did his thing. Best one in the city! Also tried the hummus with pita. Yum!

WHOEVER LEAVES A BAD REVIEW YOUR TASTE BUDS ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT WORKING. I GREW UP ON THIS FOOD. IT BROUGHT ME BACK TO MY NANAS KITCHEN AS IF I WERE A CHILD AGAIN EATING AT HER TABLE. THE CHEF HIT EVERY NOTE WHEN IT CAME TO SPICES. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT! ? THE EXPERIENCE LITERALLY MADE ME EMOTIONAL BECAUSE IT MADE ME FEEL LIKE I WAS HOME AGAIN. VIVA ???Dietary restrictions: I think twice about going out to eat as I can only have limited amount of fats. I did not have any special requests here because I know how healthy lebanese food is and I knew by the way the food smelled and presented it would be perfect!
The restaurant offers a fantastic dining experience with a commendable staff, albeit on the higher end in terms of pricing. One notable aspect is the lack of clarity on the menu regarding the side accompanying the kabobs; predominantly comprising rice, had this been evident, I might have opted to substitute it for a refreshing salad. Nevertheless, the red pepper dip added a delightful touch to the overall culinary experience, making it an ideal spot for romantic dates.Parking: Not many, about 10 spots

food not tasty at all. $30 plate contains very less quantity of rice. No mayo, no sauce, no salad dressing.

Had a fabulous lunch yesterday.. we started with hommos, babba ghannoush, fattush, grape leaves, andArabic bread. Everything was absolutely delicious. For our main course we had lamb kebabs accompanied with roasted vegetables and rice. The lamb was tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked to a medium rare. For dessert we had baklawa and coffee. My only complaint was that the coffee wasn't hot. The server remedied that for me. All in all it was an excellent meal.

I have visited your restaurant several times over the past year. While there have been moments of culinary delight, there have also been many instances of disappointment and inconsistency that causes me to reconsider returning.During my initial lunch visit, I found the food to be rather dry and it seemed like it may have been leftovers from the day before. This experience left me hesitant to go back. However, a few months later, I decided to give it another chance with a couple of my co-workers. To my delight, the food was absolutely amazing! We couldn't help but rave about the delicious and fresh flavors.Since then, I have returned to your restaurant a few more times, particularly when I have business meetings with clients from the nearby hospital. Unfortunately, during my most recent visit, I found the food to be once again dry and seemingly reheated from the day before. This inconsistency in the quality of the food makes me think twice about having lunch at your establishment in the future.As a suggestion to the cook, please consider alternative options if there is leftover food from the previous day. One option could be donating it to those in need, taking it home for personal consumption, or disposing of it. Considering the price range of your menu items, I believe it is fair to expect fresh and delicious food, rather than leftovers.At this point, I have decided to take a break from dining at your restaurant. I hope you take this feedback constructively and do something about the inconsistency. It's important to note that most people won't complain, they just won't return.
Very fine scratch cooking with a flavorful explosion in your mouth that lasts! Incredible food!

Decent ambience. Some of the items were really good like the grilled salmon with rice and veggies was exceptional. The chicken with salad was pathetic and chewy and cold, would never order that. The appetizers were also good, especially the Moushaka. The one thing that folks should be aware of is they add the gratuity on the bill even if it is for one / two people and they don't even mention that on the menu or anywhere else. I'm not against giving gratuity (understand if it's for a large group but not for a individuals or couples) but I want to decide how much I give and not be forced upon like this. One of the big reasons for a lower rating. Would I go again......Maybe not sure
