One of the better places to eat traditional middle eastern dishes. Staff does a good job – most of them are friendly and helpful. While we liked most of what we got – we also felt that some pairings seemed off – such as which rice was served with which dish and how sweet or well cooked some of the sweet dishes were. Overall – it is worth going back to.

My husband and I got the prix fixe dinner for two and the food was amazing. Probably some of the best Lebanese food I’ve had in Boston! And the belly dancer Elizabeth and live musician make it such a fun and lively environment. I would recommend this place to everyone, my husband and I still talk about how good the food was.

Really liked this place. Exposed to a whole new cuisine with dishes that really highlighted a culture I was not too familiar with. The hummus and tabouli were especially good and since then inspired me to start making them myself regularly. Some of the dishes I could not even name for you right now. Definitely check this place out if you are looking for something exotic and different.

This was my first time trying a Lebanese restaurant and I was gladly surprised by the quality of the food and service there. The place is very nice and spacious. The tables were clean and with white towels. The food was very tasty, good looking and with moderate amount of food on plates like I’m used from Europe were I’m from. Actually everything had more of an European style than everything we usually try in usa local restaurants. If you want to try a Lebanese or middle east type food but with some European style in the middle you definitely have to try this place.

I Spent my 40th birthday here with my friends and family. It was an experience I will never forget. It felt like home; Elegant, Classy and down to earth, all wrapped up into one! They had delicious hearty vegan options which are hard to find at restaurants that are not primarily vegan. The live entertainment by musician, “Mitchell Kaltsunas” and the belly dancer, “Elizabeth” were an absolute hit. So engaging! The staff accommodated our party of 20 with ease. Everyone was pleased with their meals. This is a new staple for us. I ate, I danced, I sang and everything in between. What a first impression! We will definitely be back… and often! Thank you for helping me bring in 40 with the best vibrations a gal could ask for. Peace and Blessings….

Incredible food, great service, nice atmosphere, prices a little more on the expensive side but totally worth it. There are good vegan and vegetarian options, as well as a plethora of meat options. There’s a lot of seating, a semi-private back room, and a bar. Great for groups or a nice date. There is also a parking lot, which is important if you’re driving yourself. Overall we had a great experience!
