"After missing out on a true meal a month ago, we had to return for the full works. Still wonderful cuisine. Adding a star for three reasons: Buying extra space to include a bar, building a bakery right next door to make their own fresh dough and bakedgoods, and for continued if not improved really delicious food. Everything was incredible. I might have to add this to myregular diet of fine and healthy meals. I appreciate my companion introducing me to this fare. From start to finish everythingexcelled. We wanted so many starters our wait staff suggested we get the cold appetizer platter. Good recommendation. We alsoordered two pies spinach and cheese. I prefer the cheese. As someone who doesn 't like eggplant, I loved the Monk which isbasically a chopped salad with this main ingredient, but can also be a soup or stew. My partner loves the labné a strainedyogurt dish which on the platter comes as the garlic version. The hummus and olive salad are the right addition to thiscollection along with traditional grape leaves. The chicken medley soup was what it should be warm and comforting. Maindishes were lamb chops on yellow rice with grilled vegetables and the shawarma mix platter of beef and chicken over basmatirice. As someone who cooks, and cooks well, their rice is amazing to me. It 's so light you could blow it off of your plate likefeathers. We ordered four spinach pies and an order of beef shawarma with basmati and grilled vegetables to take out. Manythanks to Reem for her fine cooking, cocktail expertise and just general perfection. This August 2022, it 's hard to believe wehaven 't been to Lebnani for three years but with Covid closings and Lebnani moving their restaurant to the larger space nextdoor to now include a full bar, time passed. The old space they are still keeping to open up a Lebanese bakery and café Man 'oushe which they are working on now. Thumbs up to the new revamped version of Lebnani. We mainly dropped in to see"

"Well, where do I even begin with Yummy Kabob and Cafe? This place is not just a hookah bar, it's more like a home away from home for us. They've got this incredible knack of making us feel welcomed every time we walk through the door, and I'm talking genuine smiles and warmth. Trust me, that's not something you see every day.Case in point, we rocked up one Saturday night, a party of nine and no reservation. Did they turn us away? Heck no! They found us a spot and made us feel like we were VIPs.Being the adventurous type, I gave their samosas a go this time around. I gotta say, they nailed it. Crispy on the outside, savory on the inside, and served with this kickin' dipping sauce. I also tried the bottled lassi. Nothing extraordinary, but hey, it's bottled. Can't really win or lose there.But let's get to the real star of the show the shisha. We've been here five or six times and this time we opted for the Starbuzz citrus mist shisha. Man, was that a game changer. It was super refreshing and just the perfect thing to complement a chill summer night.What really sets this place apart though, is the fact that it's just so damn chill. It's the kind of place where you can let loose with your friends, be a little loud, and just enjoy the vibes. It's not just a one time visit kind of place. No, sir. Yummy Kabob and Cafe is a spot that makes you want to return over and over again. Can't recommend it enough."
