First time to try Syrian food and it’s good experience.The in-house yogurt spread and cheese are outstanding. The beef kabob is good but the lamb is better.

Damascus makes some of the most delicious and best authentic Middle Eastern food that you will find in the greater Lehigh Valley. The food if so incredibly rich with flavors. I grew up eating in a middle eastern home with lots of authentic cooking and I promise you that this is the spot to grab some food if middle eastern cuisine is what you are in the mood for. The owners are so kind and lovely too!

It had been years since I had stuffed grape leaves with meat included. I drove an hour and a half to get there, and it was totally worth the trip to Allentown.

The food was very basic yet expensive. A can of soda costs $2.50! Customer favorites (chicken and lamb kabobs) were just Ok, but nothing special. Our food was cooked in the microwave, and I definitely remember mom cooking everything on the stove. Highly overrated.
