YonasJuly 14, 2016The best chicken shawarma I've ever had! Seriously, couldn't believe how good it was. The beef shawarma was amazing too. Can't decide which one is better!- Abood AbussaudMarch 4, 2015The best Lebanese restaurant in town! Delicious complimentary pita and za'tar, i recommend the fried cheese for starter; the mixed grill (for two people) , and shawarma plate for main order.
SamaMarch 25, 2019Greater place for Arab food. The sampler is good for 2-3. The sheesh tauok is juicy and perfectly cooked.
Hookah on the back patio, good Lebanese food, especially the hummus and beef shawarma. WiFi password is "2265903736"
Pavan KulkarniMarch 18, 2018The hookah patio is very chill, get the guava with a little grape fruit hookah , order a mint tea or Turkish coffee
Benjy WeinbergerMay 12, 2014Excellent hummus, kibbe, kebab and lamb. And the pita bread is the real thing- thick and fluffy and delicious.
Ayesha RizviFebruary 2, 2013Try their Half Chicken served with rice or fries, the garlic sauce is to die for! They also offer delightful Turkish tea.
NanaApril 17, 2016Hookah was good for the price. The veggie mezze platter was quite nice. Cheese rolls was my fav ;)
Good food... trick is to always ask for the garlic and hot sauce. Great hookah as well!
Andrei IvanovAugust 12, 2016The lamb shawarma was amazing, hookah is good and the unlimited tea is a must
Shaun CramptonJuly 21, 2014Halloumi on the cheese plate isn't grilled. Mezzes are excellent. Try the cauliflower.
Elizabeth JamesJanuary 3, 2014The best fresh made pita bread, baba gannouj, chicken and ribeye skewers! So delish!
Ruby AnayaJanuary 9, 2014Get the Labneh yogurt dip to start. Also there's hookah in the back, just ask!
Ros HodgekissNovember 30, 2014Shawarma date night! Great food and wine by the bottle is well priced.
Jodee CherneyJune 28, 2013The non-bhaklava dessert was amazing!!! Leave room for this warm treat for sure.
Tom MengNovember 22, 2014Hooka is smoked on the back patio. You'll get led through the restaurant and kitchen like a fucking rock star.
DebbieJuly 14, 2013Don't understand why it's empty. The Lebanese food here is damn good. Thick creamy labneh and tender lamb kebob.
Caroline HofellerNovember 14, 2012Super friendly staff and great food. I would come back ! Get the sampler for sure!
- Benjy WeinbergerMay 12, 2014I take back everything I ever said about there bring no decent middle-eastern food in SF.
Patrick KaldawyJune 23, 2016Most of it is great. Very close to authentic. The makanek weren't that great though
Amro DiabJanuary 29, 20141hr to order hookah, 1.5hrs waiting for hookah, 2hrs waiting for food. There were 20 people smoking shisha...some places have 100. Food was good but the price was too high especially after the wait
Very very bad service. Left after not being served after 25 mins of waitresses avoiding eye contact.
Ребята ходят сюда за хорошим кальяном, а я за пахлавой.
