“ The best Lebanese place to eat high quality, fresh, versatile, imaginative, beautiful dishes with wonderful staff . Set in an opulent setting. Marble decor and rose tinted chandeliers. Superb Lebanese wine. This place can cater for any scenario . Recommend calling to book but if you get lucky you can walk in and have a wonderful surprise. Great for family, friends and ding forget to try the milk pudding. One of the few places to serve a platter of fresh fruit at the end of a meal . Don’t miss it. ”
“ Outstanding. Extended family meal, for a birthday celebration. A fantastic room, beautiful building, and a huge round table made us feel very special. The service was superb, just the right amount of attention without being overbearing, and everyone was lovely. The food really hit the spot - a selection of sharing plates, some mains, all really well prepared and presented, delicious. The price for what we had was very reasonable too. We all had a lovely evening, and this place was really the key to it. Can't recommend highly enough. ”

“ What a fabulous restaurant. Beautiful building, fantastic food and great friendly service..... Thoroughly recommended, tried the Hommos Beiruty, for a mild kick. Then the Lentil Soup with crispy Lebanese bread topping and fresh lemon juice The Batata Hara and fried vegetables was lovely and all these came as generous portions... The Maroush Mixed Grills was divine, with perfectly cooked meats and bread with vegetables plus the usual table dishes to share too.... yummo Plenty of table water and the Lemon Juice drink was delicious..... finished with a coffee and some baklava Definitely put this on your "must visit" list ”
“ I had a fantastic meal here yesterday. It was a birthday celebration for almost 30 people. Chadi was fantastic in helping to organise the food order and making sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious. The staff were very attentive and the cost is great value for money. I thoroughly recommend having a meal here in a relaxed atmosphere and staff who go out of there way to please you. ”
“ It is delish... a friend took me there.... The baba ganoush, the wings, even the simple salad. They give, I think what is baklava at the end if the meal... so good... not too sweet... ”
“ This stunning restaurant not only has beautiful interiors but serves up some of the most delicious Lebanese food. We started with their creamy, smooth hummus and refreshing tabbouleh, packed with fresh parsley, tomatoes, onion and bulgur. The falafel and batata hara (spicy potato cubes) were tasty, while the halloumi had the perfect smoky flavour, paired with fresh veggies. For salads, the fattoush with its crispy Lebanese bread, sumac, and pomegranate molasses hit all the right notes. For mains, we savoured an aubergine and chickpeas casserole with rice. And for dessert we indulged in their signature knafeh (that delightful cheese with vermicelli) alongside baklava and a comforting rice pudding, all finished off with a refreshing cup of mint tea. Highly recommend this spot for any Lebanese food lover! ”
“ The food and service in here are fantastic! Everything tastes delicious and the dining area is absolutely beautiful. The prices are very reasonable and you are so well taken care of. It’s a little bit off the main path, but it’s totally worth it to make the trip! ”
