Food Quality and Taste

Pros:

  • "This restaurant is an absolute gem, with delicately precise flavours and an authentic feel."
  • "The food was really good, well grilled meat, beautiful hummus, the okra stew was special."
  • "The mixed grill was delicious, my only qualm was that it didn't have any rice or chips with it, only a side salad."
  • "The falafels were absolutely amazing, I could have eaten an entire plate of them, definitely the best we have ever tasted."
  • "All of the food was really excellent, all the meat was cooked to perfection and had a lovely smoky taste."
  • "Succulent and well spiced mixed grill, the kibbeh were wonderful."
  • "The food is beautifully cooked and presented, my photos don't do it justice."
  • "The food is up there with the best I've had anywhere, cooked to perfection and healthy portions."

Cons:

  • "Starter- Small portion, decent presentation and quality was good but taste good be better."
  • "Salats are tasteless and sauces too greasy."
  • "The falafel dish was dense, soggy and tepid, somewhat embarrassed as I had ‘hyped up’ the quality of the food."
  • "Had been a while since our previous visit, unfortunately, the service in this place has been diminishing."
  • "The food wasn't bad but not great either, the staff were friendly however after we informed them of a nut allergy we were specifically told there were no nuts in the mixed platter."
  • "Underwhelming food. Staff didn’t know what a falafel was and called it “the chick pea thing”."
  • "The taboulet was so salty we could not eat it. The kibbeh came as three halves which had been deep fried and where blackened and so were the falafels."
  • "It was very bad experience, I didn't expect that kind of food. Nothing special you can go to the Kabbeb shop and buy it cheaper."

Cons:

  • "The food was good but the service really let the place down and could have made me really ill."
  • "Must say, unfortunately, that the service in this place has been diminishing, and on our last visit it was atrocious."
  • "The service was slow and not as attentive as it could have been but they were very, very busy so didn't really have time to do more."
  • "We ordered takeaway tonight and it was a very big disappoint. For £20 we ordered the veg meza for two and it was comical how little food there was!"
  • "Food is good but very Disappointed with the service. We “booked” table today at 7, finished having drink & mains by 7:40 and ordered for dessert n Lebanese coffee."
  • "The only reason for three stars was that the waiter serving us was positively hostile!"
  • "Very very good food, Lebanese beers were really tasty too. The only reason for three stars was that the waiter serving us was positively hostile!"
