My coworker and I came here on a Saturday afternoon, we got a reservation ahead of time and I'm glad we did because this place was pretty busy. We got their aperol spritz for drinks which was very refreshing, would recommend this for the summer. For food, we got their dip platter and chose their hummus, labne, and baba ghannouj. My coworker was gluten-free so they were very nice to give us some gluten free chips instead of the bread with the dips. We also got their halloumi fries which came with a pomegrante dipping sauce - I LOVED IT! The halloumi fries were cooked so well! We also got their prawns which were really fresh and delicious. I would definitely come back! Their hummus was so good, it's for sure a very authentic Lebanese spot.

I actually prefer this one since it's less sweet! The people there are friendly too :)

Menu has 10 items (kebab platters and wraps). - Naan ($2.00) - fresh, plain - Cholo kebab ($16.99) - two ground beef skewers.

This is a Persian restaurant that specializes in kebabs, and despite the variety of dishes on the menu, they have few options - chicken, ground beef, salad, grilled tomato, basmati, and naan. We got the #3. Cholo Vaziri which has both chicken and seasoned ground beef skewer served in salad and rice, so we added a naan for $2 extra to try a bit of everything. The chicken is quite juicy and the ground beef is very juicy and flavorful. Rice is perfectly cooked and the salad is refreshing. The naan is huge. The provided tzatziki sauce is quite garlicky and complements well with everything. My only complaints are minor - I'd love more tzatziki (possible with $0.75 surcharge) and parking is almost impossible and spots are very tight. Otherwise, this is an excellent restaurant

The first time we went there, we weren't as familiar with Donair items, so we ordered the chicken shawarma platter. We were blown away by how generous their portions were, the worker kept pouring the meat onto the box along with everything else (we really thought the box wasn't able to close!). Then as we come back more often, we tried out their other items, their lamb is now our favorite. The seasonings they put into their lamb is different than ones like Donair Dude, it is much more unique. Their platter's sides are just unbeatable, garlic potatoes, hummus, salad, and pickled goods! Every time my girlfriend and I go there, we only order one platter to share, and we still can't finish it! Regardless which worker is serving you theyll all treat you generously, must try!

The lamb shank with rice, side salad and came with their signature pita bread along with the 4 dips: garlic, hummus, yogurt and baba ghanouj. The portion size was good and the food was delicious. I really like their manoushe. It goes well with the dip. The food was made fresh upon ordering.

A very tiny yet highly acclaimed restaurant in Vancouver near Yaletown-Roundhouse SkyTrain station…read more We stumbled upon this place while walking right at opening, so we got first pick at one of the 3 tables for dine-in. Definitely try to go at opening or when it is not busy, as the dine-in experience is memorable - they place your order in a long wooden board to make it a beautiful spread. We got the Manoush'eh Special which has ground beef, pomegranate, etc and Sham Style which is shaped like a boat. We also tried the yogurt drink which pairs well with the dishes. The only con is that this place does not have free water, but it is no problem to have our own water bottles supplementing the meal. We also got the lentil soup which is pretty good. Definitely sufficient to share one to try, but the Manoush'eh outshines the rest of the items. I loved the quality and texture of the Manoush'eh and just the breads in general. It is a lot of food for 2 people so if you want a snack, you can definitely just share 1. Some people go here for the wraps too. Overall, an affordable restaurant with good food. We got the most expensive items and it was less than 50 CAD all-in, but a lot of the items are around the 10 CAD mark.

We started with appetizer the platter with kibbeh, which is like a samosa and fattosh salad which is like a fresh salsa salad. I ordered Lamb shanks with grape leaves on the server's recommendation. The stuffed grape leaves indeed paired well with the shank. Another friend had the shank with cabbage rolls. Another friend ordered the kebab. It was a bit try and had wished to order the shank instead. Another ordered roast lamb shoulder and another couple ordered the whole sea bass. They liked the sea bass and it was enough for 2 to share. To finish off the meal, I ordered the anise tea. It was very fragrant but light so need time to steep to bring out the flavour. The Arabic coffee was like Turkish coffee with cardamom added. Both very interesting and the server was telling us all about health benefits of anise tea esp with osmanthus flower and was so nice she even brought out the flower for us to see and smell. We tried 2 different desserts- Kunafah, and Nammourah. Overall it was not only a lovely meal but also educational! lol.
