"What a wonderful Danbury find! It's in an area with some pretty stiff competition when it comes to excellent food Stanziato's and Le's Kitchen just to name a few but Kibberia easily knocks it out of the park when it comes to Lebanese Mediterranean. On our visit, salads were particularly stellar with a good balance of high quality, well conceived ingredients, while my boys' wraps included a generous amount of moist, well seasoned proteins. The deets: Falafel Salad $8.99; Our famous falafel served on top of lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, parsley and dressed with tahini sauce I don't know if their falafel are really famous, but if they aren't, they should be! These lovely little one inch, parsley inflected balls were perfectly fried, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and still a little warm when we consumed it, despite being served on a bed of cold vegetables. No disparagement to those cold vegetables! The high quality lettuce, finely chopped tomatoes onions and pickles were all in perfect balance, better than the sum of their parts. The huge pita bowl they came in made for a visually stunning presentation, but I think we'll ask for the salad without the bowl next time but with an extra side order or two of those fabulous falafels . There wasn't enough moisture in the salad to balance out all that crisp pita. Russian Kale Chicken Salad $10.99; Chopped red kale mixed with red beets, slivered almonds, dried cranberries apples, and served with a satisfying semi sweet dressing and roasted chicken breast This was such a perfectly designed salad, especially for the season, good, fresh kale chopped to just the right size for eating. I hate when salads come with enormous pieces of vegetables that require attack with a knife. The small diced beets, crunchy almonds, dried cranberries, dried apples, moist chicken, and slightly mustardy dressing made for a winning combination. Both the Lamb Shawarma Wrap $11.99; Seared lamb shawarma strips with tomatoes, onion, pickles, parsley, lettuce and tahini sauce and Chicken Shawarma Wrap $8.45; Seasoned and seared chicken shawarma strips with tomato, onion, pickles, parsley, and lettuce all dressed with tahini sauce came with a toasted, lavash like flatbread thicker and more sturdy than your typical lavash, though , generously filled with juicy, well seasoned meat and thick, rich tahini. For one wrap, we asked for tomatoes and tahini on the side and received large ramekins of each to add as we liked. This really is a lovely little restaurant serving food that feels truly nourishing and wholesome. This food makes you feel good when you eat it. Staff on our visit were smiling and kind. There were beautiful baklavas and, IIRC, date balls in the cases by the counter, as well as prepared foods and convenience foods to prepare at home e.g. flatbread pizza . Here's to many return visits!"
