The service was absolutely terrible. The restaurant was nearly empty and had a dismal atmosphere, with stained chair cushions and peeling paint on the walls. The worst part was the waiter, who clearly seemed unhappy. He made us wait to be seated while he served customers outside, and only came back a few minutes later to show us to one of the many empty tables. After taking our orders, we waited 40 minutes without any sign of our appetizers or food. To make matters worse, the waiter passed by us multiple times without acknowledging the long wait. Meanwhile, he was busy fulfilling online orders and other tasks while we sat there in disbelief. This place has no place in the service industry. T...

After trying their food for the first time, this restaurant has become my favorite place for Mediterranean and Lebanese cuisine. I immediately recognized the quality of their food when I tasted their hummus, which was rich in flavor and full of aromatic depth. The rice was also delightful, perfectly seasoned with spices. All of the other dishes I ordered were well-prepared as well. Although I only tried takeout, I found myself missing fresh pita; however, the delicious flavors of the dishes made up for the absence of warm, soft bread. If you live in the area and enjoy flavorful cuisine, this place is a must-try!

I would rate this restaurant a 3 out of 5. The seafood is fried in oil rather than grilled, which alters the flavor from what you might expect from Mediterranean cuisine. The customer service is mediocre; the staff doesn't seem to pay much attention to the patrons. Additionally, there is a pervasive smell of frying oil, so be prepared to change your clothes afterward to avoid smelling like a fast food establishment. On the positive side, the location is great and beautiful, and the atmosphere feels friendly. There are hooks available if you need them.

We dined at the restaurant and had an outstanding experience. The food was excellent, and the service was exceptional. The restaurant manager demonstrated great professionalism, and our server, Fatima, was fantastic. Her warm smile made us feel truly welcome. Overall, we rate the food, service, and atmosphere all as a perfect 5.

The prices are too high, so make sure to double-check your bill because they might charge you for more than what you ordered. The service was very disappointing, and we were the only customers there.
