We had a very nice time watching the belly dancer and enjoying the crowd. The good was on point. I had the meat sampler and it was very tasty. Unique hidden gem.

I came here for late lunch a mini day date with my husband... loved it! The food was oh so mega packed with taste and so many layers of flavors ... nothing was overpowering, just the right hint of spices. My lamb shanks were oh so mightily tender and boosting with flavor! I definitely recommend it, I am very very satisfied with the experience and pricing. Will definitely come back!

Great Lebanese food. Loved it! They even have house pita bread that I haven't seen outside the middle east! Excellent!

First of all, great service. Jack was humorous and provided fantastic service. For appetizers, the baba ganoush and hummus were good. We didn't like the steak tartare. For mains, I got the ouzi lamb and my husband ordered the lamb shank. I didn't really enjoy my ouzi lamb. It was fairly tough lamb stew with very watery "gravy". However, my husband's lamb shank was very good! It was tasty and flavorful and melt-in-your-mouth soft! So in short, do not order ouzi lamb and just get lamb shank instead. Photo shows my ouzi lamb and then behind it you'll see my husband's lamb shank.

A beautiful place walking in. We wanted to try something new. Water was brought to us, we were asked if we wanted wine. My boyfriend & I don't drink, we declined and wasn't offered anything else. So I'm guessing it is what it is there ... Thank you for the great food and experience 🙏 Not sure what the puffy little breads that were brought to us were called? But they brought a lot of joy having the pleasure to taste them. Yum! 🤗 (Always get cheese as an appetizer anywhere you go!)

First time dining here and did not disappoint. My fave was the Lamb Chops, so tender and tasty. Fattoush was excellent, not too sour like the other places. Bread was soft and perfectly made. Clean restaurant.

What a top grade Lebanese restaurant! Must try! I feel lucky to have found this place. It's only my first time here but will definitely be back and with more people. Music is nice and calm, atmosphere is very organized The pita chips and yogurt were complementary and a perfect crunch to start the appetite. Following with the savory cheesy stuffed pastry bites and the delicious seasoned rice wrapped in grape leaves. Next came the kofta sandwich and rice. Perfect combination. Rice has fresh nuts ontop and mixed with the yogurt from before, becomes devoured. The sandwich is also amazing, zesty pickles and delicately seasoned beef all grilled in a toasty wrap. Your missing out still reading this, get in here!

Expertly prepared authentic Lebanese cuisine in a family run restaurant. Wait staff are friendly and the atmosphere is comfortably rustic-modern. Attentive but unobtrusive service - we were checked on and had our water topped up at least three times during the course of our meal. The food is fabulous! We had the halloumi appetizer plus the chicken, lamb and beef. Mouthwatering seasoning and perfectly cooked meat. They also offer take out and can accommodate large groups with advance reservation.
