a week agoI went there by myself and they were very kind to me. I got a very good table and the staff were genuinely polite. They also had live music, which made the experience more interesting. The portions were extremely generous. I ordered a fattoush and vine leaves with cow tongue, and I also got a lemonade. They served complimentary olives, spring onion, radish, and bread. Everything was very delicious. I tried the cow tongue just for fun, but I really liked the fattoush, the vine leaves, the appetizers, and the lemonade. I’ll visit this place again for sure.

2 weeks agoI go here when I am sad, when I want to show people real lebanese cooking, and when I am happy. Fast, good and cheap. Is it the most elegant and highest form of lebanese food? No. Do I want that when I come here? Absolutely not, I want someone to scream Welcome at me and have good service and some home food. Order off the specials menu and the hummus is really good

2 months agoBest food I’ve had in Beirut! The hummus with lahme was like no other, and the fasolia with meat was simple yet perfectly done. The fried chicken was my least favorite dish, as it was a bit dry and lacked flavor. We ended lunch with crème caramel, which was delicious! Overall, a great experience. The staff were friendly and warmly greeted everyone who came in. A staff member also mentioned that Russell Crowe donated to help renovate this place after Marfaa Beirut explosion. I found it really bizarre in the best way like how small the world can be, and how he came to know about this place But I’m glad he did, such a thoughtful gesture and a great story.
