"It’s a little sad to see so many good reviews when the food was not great. Only reason I’m giving two stars, it’sbecause of their service. Firstly, food wasn’t seasoned enough, the beef shawarmas were overcooked and had almost no seasoning whatsoever (not enough salt as well). The grill kabobs were also dry and hard to eat after it went cold. Also, we ordered the knafeh (which they said they ran out, then came back and said they actually had it) and it was one of the worst knafehs we have tried. The cheese was almost nonexistent, it smelled like old butter and it had a very carrot buttery taste. We couldn’t even finish it. Overall, a few items were decent such as the ozie shawarma and the lemonade with mint. Lastly, make sure to inspect carefully the check before putting your cards down, since it seems the restaurant menu has different prices than what they actually charge. The overall total didn’t add up to what we ordered base on their menu prices, don’t make the same mistake as us."

We tried this restaurant, service was good and food was very delicious. The owner mentioned that there will live music and events on Fridays and Saturdays so she encouraged us to come

This was a very pleasant experience with a genuine Lebanese dining experience. Not just the food, but the drinks and food were high quality and the staff professional. We will likely go back for live music.Food: 4/5

This place has great service as the waitress was patient with our large group and our orders. The ambiance was good with nice decorations and I have heard they have live music occasionally. I am giving low rating due to the quality of food and it's price. I understand the economy is bad but this place overcharges for low quality food. The chicken kabobs were tough and over cooked. The rice was also over cooked. We ordered dessert and it was falling apart. Disservice to Lebanese and Syrian cuisine tbh

"Highly recommend! This quaint neighborhood coffee shop is the place to be! The coffee served as espresso or with an americano is La Columbe Nizza flavor. So unctuous and comforting- it's one of my favorite. I was so happy to discover a local neighborhood coffee spot near me that serves it. The owners and workers always make you feel like family! Top notch service. They always fill your cup to the brim so you never feel cheated. The prices are $2-$3 less per cup than national coffee shops and tastes infinitely better! The atmosphere and cozy furniture seating groups make you feel like you are having coffee at a friend or family members place. Very thoughtful seating, including outdoor seating that is utilized everyday. You are greeted by the neighbors that frequent this favorite coffee spot on each visit. It also allows you to bring man's best friend and sit outside with them to ship your core and relax. This little shop also sells your favorite coffee in packages to take home and make in between your stops to visit your neighbor family. They also sells some fantastic looking wine and delicious pastries and sweets, along with breakfast sandwiches and lunch items. Treat yourself to the whole experience of drinking a comforting cup of coffee with the authentic family caring atmosphere! You will not be disappointed! Make a new neighborhood friend while you're there!"
