We had a friend’s birthday done here. It’s a big restaurant and simply decorated. For a group its a set formula and its a generous one with lots of cold and hot mezza in addition to grilled food. Portions were good of each plate. The raw food was served warm which isn’t too healthy. Salads were fresh and tasty. Moutabbal was thick in texture, warak enab were a bit sour. Loved the garlic labne, makanik, fries and tawook. Kafta was super dry and meat was chewy. Average experience.

Been there many times for different occasions, big place for all occasions, traditional lebanese mezza and bbq, delicious food and helpful staff, affordable prices.
My friends planned a secret birthday party for my brother at that resto so we all gathered and went there. The resto looked very classy and the decorations were very good and a big area as a dance floor with a DJ at the bar. Although it is supposed to close at midnight but they have exceptionally planned to stay longer for us. The cold mezza came first. I liked the warak enab. The hummus was great and the moutabbal was light. The la7me nayye and malse was regular. The tabouleh needs refinement and the fattouch was without bread and unseasoned. The hot mezza were okay but the makanek were super delicious. The mouajanet were dry and the cheese was cold on inside.Finally the barbecue was served which was kabab, tawook, and la7me. They were nice and delicious but the la7me was a little tough and hard to bite. Anyway in all cases it was a good place to gather with your friends and family even if the food is average.
First of all I would like to thank and salute the management and the crew of the restaurant for being kind enough and for staying up with us beyond their usual working time up to 3:30am (3.5 hours extended) which we totally appreciate from them.My friends and I planned a surprise birthday party for our friend at that restaurant. It looked fine and cosy and very convenient for family gatherings and birthday parties. It is a Lebanese cuisine resto serving middle eastern food. The place was well decorated and we got a fine reception. We all went for the prepaid set menu with open mezza, main course, and open drinks. We arrived at 12:15am but the place was empty on a Saturday night (perhaps because its really remote and isolated and the road was covered with snow). First there was the cold mezza which were served quickly which I will go through one by one . Fattouch was less than average since it lacked breadcrumbs and short of seasoning (no summac nor debs remman), tabouleh was honestly tasteless, the hummus was very good, moutabbal was great, labne was okay, beetroot salad was great, the jebne and shangleesh were fine, the Tajin tasted amazing, the warak enab was seriously good (first one to disappear), the la7me nayyi was fresh and ok, the Malse (mashed meat) was fine but not served with its side-spices.Then there was the hot mezza. The kebbe was fine, fatayer were unusually dry, the cheese rolls were hot and crunchy on the outside but cold on the inside, the la7m b3ajeen was ok but dry and the french fries were really good and fresh. The only thing that stood out were the Makanek served with debs remmen on the side which again were the first to disappear since they tasted really amazing. Afterwards we were served the mashawi which included meat cubes, kafta mostly, and white Tawook. The Tawook was outstanding so was yhe kafta. But the meat cubes were chewy and hard to swallow, perhaps they should work on that. It was a great experience with good company, fair rated food (which might need improvement in the points mentioned above), excellent service and nice atmosphere. I would recommend this place for family and friend gatherings as to its location and service.
Yestersay we were invited to a pre wedding celebration in alOstoura. There’s no valet parking you can park anywhere in front of the restaurant.average food, bad arguile, but the staff was good.
Original Review: Been there a couple of times on different occasions, typical lebanese food. Grills and mezza are good. The two levels indoor makes the difference, the outer upper ring provides some sort of privacy while the inner lower level put you on focus.
