Well, I tell you this, the food was good and the meats were flavorful and tender. The pita is unlimited and the hummus so smooth. We tried, shawarma, gyro, and kebab. The gyro and kebab were my favorite. The shawarma was good too but next to the other two it was just good not great. I will definitely go again. Such a refreshing change from the usual fast food.

He was very helpful which we appreciated. We ordered the chicken shawarma platter and chicken shawarma pita which were both delicious. The portions were generous and flavorful. The hummus also came with pita which was a nice addition. Inside it was a typical fast casual layout, that was clean. Would be a great place for lunch. The food also came out pretty quickly! Looking forward to coming back again.

I love this little authentic Lebanese Grill! Nothing fancy - but just like grandmas old kitchen -…read morethe food is what you come for! Prices are very fair for this fresh food. I've been on the go since before the sun was up today. Usually I would get the food to go - but today I just needed to sit and eat like a human instead of in the car etc I wanted a few minutes of peace and quiet before going to my chaotic home. Is there sometimes a 10 to 15 minute wait for the food - yes... I'm more than happy to wait because everything is prepared fresh in your view. I grabbed my phone and expected to watch TikTok for entertainment... Be aware! If you can't wait the 15 minutes - save this place for another day unlike a nasty woman who was loosing her mind that 15 minutes had passed and they were putting her meal together. People are wild - I wanted to say mam - do you not see these guys moving as quickly as they can? I sat and watched for a moment. Both of the guys working tried nicely and calmly to explain that they were preparing the food etc - she was literally having a temper tantrum. Thank goodness I don't work in that field as I think she would have been wearing that food. Anyway this review is long overdue! I am always happy with the food. Seeing how they handled a wacko customer made me sure these guys care very much about their business. The garlic sauce is to die for! We have never got any dish or dessert from here and not gobbled it up! Enjoy!!

Among other things I was looking for Falafel and noticed this Lebanese restaurant inside the club. It was very clean and open kitchen style which I liked. I usually don't eat in restaurants but I couldn't resist it. Since I do not eat meat, the lady there asked if I would like to try their Falafel sandwich. So, she made freshly cooked falafel added all kinds of veggies and spices, squeezed some tahini sauce and wrapped it in a pitta bread. It was so delicious.

Food prices seem to have went up and portions and quality went down. My review from when this place was habibi was taken down unfortunately, otherwise you could have seen the difference. The tabbouleh, hummus, and meat were not good. The rice wasn't bad which I guess is a good thing considering it's 80% rice.

I decided to stop in for a lunch to go and pleasantly pleased with the interior of the restaurant. I ordered a shish kebab pita with a side of garlic sauce which ran me about $12. While I waited, I saw that this place has everything from cigars and hookah which I feel like would be a nice late afternoon/early evening vibe. I did have to wait for a little under 20 minutes, however there were no customers there. I was expecting my food to be hot for the time I waited. However, it was not. The beef pieces were a bit chewy for my liking and were bland. I wish it had more seasoning or grill marks. The pita and veggies inside were fresh and the garlic sauce was the star of the show. The garlic sauce definitely elevates the pita. Based on the reviews, this place is pretty good but maybe I caught them on a bad day. I would like to try their baklava as it was staring me down during my wait for my order.

This place needs more attention and love…read more The owner is extremely nice. We chatted while he made my food. It was also extremely quick and the food was perfectly fresh. The chicken shawarma (or chicken wrap) was perfection. Extremely juicy, the pita was nice and crispy, and the toum wasn't over powering at all. The manakeesh was to die for, especially the meat pie (lahm ajeen). Fresh and crispy flatbread, the meat was still juicy. And yes, he does have the best baklava. Please go visit and get some business going here. This is great food.

The owner, "Abu Ali" is truly a gentleman, kind, friendly and great to talk to. He treated everyone that walked in the same way. My second visit was a to-go order for a variety of menu items. The first thing I tasted was the tabouli. For me personally, it's my true measure of the authenticity of the food and it did not disappoint! Everything was delicious with the "homemade" stamp of approval. Don't expect the full restaurant experience as space is limited and can get crowded at times. This place is low-key and though a limited menu when it comes to the Lebanese cuisine, there is a plethora of options to choose from. Stop by and visit Abu Ali and his family...truly wonderful people and great food!

This place was just....odd…read more We dropped in here for a super quick bite before going to the Cirque du Soleil show at the Florida Mall. We had exactly 35 minutes. We were the ONLY TWO PEOPLE in the restaurant. Should be plenty of time if we know what we want as soon as we sit, right? Wrong. It took most of those 35 minutes just to get the food, which was all appetizers, most of which were cold (as they were supposed to be). How long does it take to take something out of the fridge? And for the warm items, we could hear the microwave in back being used. I know microwaves can be a reality in restaurants, but come on, turn the sound off! We literally had to cram food in our mouths while signing our check and racing to the show. Also, the wine situation was sad. The items we wanted we kept getting informed they were out of. The owner/server was very nice, and you can tell this is a family establishment, but it was a little *too* family, if you know what I mean. I felt like I had dropped in my neighbors and was waiting for them to whip something up for surprise guests. All that being said, the food was good once it arrived, but I'm not sure we will be returning.
