I went here with a group of friends after falling down at the ice rink so many times. We had a late lunch but my food experience was sub-par. Walking in you're greeted by a nice lady who graciously took our orders one by one. She was nice and prevented this from getting a two star rating. I got the mixed kabob platter, and I was hoping for a bit more food for the price I paid for but it was very lackluster. You get chunks of chicken, steak, and Kafta which is Kofta in other countries but it's ground beef with onions, spices, parsley. The food came out a bit cold and I was a bit underwhelmed honestly. The meats, they were cooked fine but again just not for the price I paid for. Rice Pilaf was great, but you don't get enough of it. The salad is well, salad. Can't really complain there. If there's anything I do have to mention, it's this tomato sauce that's under the grilled meat... I really hate to say this but it reminded me of Chef Boyardee. I'm not really sure how I came to that conclusion but I didn't like it. The pita with the garlic paste, it was good. You get a lot of Pita and I'm just surprised that I got so much for such small of a dish I had. Would I come back here? Probably not. I think there are better options in the area and this wouldn't be it.

My daughter, and I stopped by Leb Tav for dinner. I ordered the Shawarma platter, and my daughter ordered hummus and the falafel basket. I'm used to fresh Middle Eastern, cuisine, and bluntly, expected to be slightly disappointed. I'm very happy to say that the food was much better than expected. The platter was fine, the falafel was fresh, and the pita was hot from the oven. There was a slight error in that the Shawarma I wanted was lamb, and I was given chicken, but since I didn't specify when ordering, I don't feel it was the restaurants fault. The best thing about the restaurant was not the food, but the attitude of the lady taking the order. She was professional, helpful, and very positive.Even my daughter commented on her pleasant nature, and that we should have tried this restaurant before now. I would rate the food, a four out of five, and the service of five out of five.

My family and I came out to this particular restaurant so I could get a specific dish that is not at the other cafes. There is no restaurant close by. The only dish I wanted wasn't available and the other food was pretty gross. It was my kids introduction to Lebanese food and what a disappointment.

Food was very bad! Food was cold as it had been cooked the day before and just slightly warm when served to us, giving the impression it was just microwaved. In fact, as we ordered it took only few minutes for it to be served... same time as it takes to heat in microwave! Disappointing!

The food was divine, but it felt unusually lonely in there. A place totally worth going!

This is a fast casual version of Lebanese Taverna where you can get the same quality of food for a fraction of the price! The restaurant itself was comfortable, and completely empty when I was there on a Sunday night. They serve complimentary pita bread which was soft and fluffy and delicious, and paired so well with the hummus. I got the beef shawarma platter and will say that the beef was a bit too overdone for me, but the flavor was definitely there! The salad and rice were delicious and the hummus stole the show! Staff was kind and accommodating as well, and I am looking forward to trying more on their menu!

Purchase is not required for sitting at the tables, so it's great for loosely organized events.
