We finally made it to Hanna's -- and it did not disappoint! I tried the babaganoush, tabouli, and hummus, and everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The staff were personable, friendly, and knowledgeable, offering great recommendations that made the experience even better. You can tell there's a lot of pride and care in both the food and the service. If the rumors about them closing are true, I'm genuinely bummed I didn't discover this place sooner. It's a true local gem and will definitely be missed! read more

I came in for lunch today. The restaurant is cozy and service is friendly. Not only is the food very good, but it is a great value. I had the number 4 combo which had falafel, hummus, tabouli and stuffed grape leaves. All of that was less than $13! I don't think you will find a better tasting deal out there. The falafel was not hard like some falafel can get and the hummus was thick and creamy. The tabouli was fresh and the grape leaves had a nice lemon accent to the flavor. It was a large plate and very filling. read more

I feel everytime I come here, I'm dining in someone's home and they're feeding me incredible food. On the weekends, Lena is usually the hostess and she makes you feel right at home. My go to is the lamb chops (pictured). Another of my options is the branzini. My wife will get a vegetarian dish of her choosing, and there have been many over the years. Wrap up your meal with some Lebanese dessert and coffee. There's a reason we've been coming here for 25 years. read more

Discovered Hanna's one day through the amazing doordash during a "hangry"/middle eastern food craving while stuck at work. I absolutely loved it then but I loved it even more NOW when going physically to the market side of Hanna's. John and the team were absolutely amazing and helpful. Love that you can walk into the little market side and pick up local flavors like hummus, baba ghanoush, bread, spices, grape leaves, anything and everything really! You can also do pickup, takeout or even dine in right next door. Did a big order of falafel, grape leaves, baba ghanoush (the S M O K E Y ness hereeeeeee!) and some other little sides for a little dinner with friends and we were all amazed and in love with everything. It was so easy to place the order and also the quality ingredients were truly what hit the spot. Family owned businesses like this that make you feel like you are part of the family. Thank you to Hanna's for cooking with your heart, it really shows through every single bite. If you're craving some middle eastern flavors, you'll absolutely fal a la la la la la fel in love with them! read more

Wow! What a find! This unassuming strip-mall restaurant was amazingly good. Huge menu, great soups and the usual Middle Eastern classic dishes.... Many also sold in Hanna's market next door. Service at our Friday lunch by server Luna was fast and efficient. She was so anxious to please and gracious in her service. We will be back! read more

The market itself had some VERY high prices on packaged food on the shelves. Got a take-out counter pint of baba, some hummus and spinach pies and all were very good! read more

I went to Hanna's for the first time last night and had an amazing experience. Lina greeted my party as we walked in and had us sat in seconds. She gave us ample amount of time to peruse the menu before asking if we had questions. She knew it was our first time so she gave recommendations and even showed us the "right" way to eat the falafel appetizer (it was so good I forgot to take a picture and next thing I knew, the food was gone). I got the mixed grill entree and I was extremely impressed! The chicken was juicy, the lamb melted like butter in my mouth, and the spices in the kafta were perfect. If you like garlic, ask for the whipped garlic....my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Definitely give this place a try if you're in the area and if you're not in the area, it's worth the drive!! read more

Very good and prices are fair. We got the Mezze and it was delicious plenty of food to share

So amazing! Best meal in ages. Perfect stuffed grape leaves, lamb, kafta, spinach pies - my 91 y/o mother Syrian mom was in love with all of it. Gracious service and delicious food- this is must have read more

Highly recommend. Restaurant on the left side and market on the right side. Head over to the market to stock up on staples. The to go food I ordered lasted about 4 meals. They had plenty of vegetarian options - baba ghanoush, hummus, eggplant, lentils and rice, pitas, baklava, to name some options. The location is also very accessible when you are traveling by Danbury with easy parking. read more

One of our favorite restaurants. Anytime we are driving through Danbury we stop and then stock up on hummus from their store.

Fantastic and authentic. I've eaten here twice - both great experiences. The place is spotlessly clean and the service is wonderful. Hummus. Falafel. Tabouli. All very good. Lovely place. Try the Lebanese wine too ... read more

We got delivered food from Hanna's and it was exceptional. I can see their service is beyond great! Food was so fresh and tasty. Thank you Hanna's for serving the best eastern Food in CT. read more

One of my coworkers ordered from here because she likes trying different places to eat. I decided to get an order. It was my first time also, and I loved it. They have a large selection, and everything looks and sounds good. I had a hard time choosing what to get. I ended up getting Naan bread, grilled chicken, tomatoes, onions, and tzatzaki sauce. I really loved it and I wish they delivered At least I don't think that they deliver. I'm about to find out right now, though!!!! read more

This restaurant is a jewel! The food was excellent and the service was perfect. It was the best hummus I have had in years, and the ma'amoul was outstanding! read more

The food was filling, varied, and delicious! Kibbeh was so good. Would definitely go here again.

We found this restaurant purely by chance on a road trip to NJ. The food and service were excellent - everything was so fresh and delicious! The server was very friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend! read more

Where do I begin? If you're looking for something that will exceed your expectations, Hannas is a must! I went to Hannas on a whim, thinking of bringing my mom, her favorite Middle Eastern food. I was greeted by Mr. Hannah, who guided me through their well thought out menu. Shortly there after I was greeted by Mrs. Hannah, who helped me choose pita bread, baklava, and made lovely conversation. I promise you will not be disappointed. My mother and I are both looking forward to our leftovers for dinner. read more

Delicious. Great service better food. I recommend anything on the menu particularly the chicken shawarma.

10 stars, not 5! Ordered for 55 people for a backyard party. I like to cook and know food well and so am very particular with what I eat and where I order food. This place was absolutely amazing. The presentation was also very good. Worked one on one with the owner who himself oversaw and helped with the making of the food and even helped to transport the food to my car. The food was perfectly prepared, very fresh, not at all oily with very good flavors. Would recommend this place to everyone everywhere. read more

Fantastic restaurant! Stopped by recently, and the chef was welcoming and friendly. He patiently explained the different Mediterranean foods and spices used. Great place to visit, and I would definitely recommend it. read more

We ordered Hanna's via grubhub in a stop over during a trip and Wow! what a great choice. Delicious chic shawarma and the spicy falafel salad was so so good. Thank you for making it a great night! read more

This restaurant caters to Lebanese food and they easily handled my Celiac (gluten-free) diet. Service and food is excellent.

Basically everything I have had off their menu was prepared well. Felt like it was fresh made with fresh ingredients, nothing imitation or processed here!! The Hanna Salad is awesome , tabouleh is one of the best I have had. The Chicken Tawook is unique and delish as are their falafel! Speaking of falafel, theirs is the perfect combination of crisp not overly crunchy and soft inside packed with flavor. They have a market with refrigerated and shelved goods and some specialty middle eastern bakery items. Try the labne spread on toast! I am so happy I was told about Hanna's as it is a gem. Oh yeah if I want tahini I would go there it is the best. Any other pales in comparison. One of the only things I have not had is Mousakaa entrée because it is different to the Greek version and I am very partial to the Greek variation. But I will eventually give it a try and am sure it will be delicious. The first think my husband had when I picked up dinner after work a while ago was the Chicken Tawook with lettuce and tomato sandwich and he was sold. Now it's on our take out list in the #2 spot. Be prepared to feast if you get a dinner entrée and do not hesitate to try the mezzas, sides, and desserts. read more

Talk about a return to some of the best Lebanese food in Connecticut! Hanna's Middle Eastern Restaurant at 72 Lake Ave in Danbury was our restaurant of choice tonight and we were extremely happy with their delicious food. As some of you might know, one of us Old Chick's is Lebanese and Hanna's has always been our go-to for Lebanese recipe ingredients on the store side. But the restaurant side! Wow! We ordered the Mezza with 12 different and delightful plates including Spinach pies, Kibbee, Mousakaa, Hommous, Grape leaves, Baba ghanoush, Syrian cheese and olives, Stuffed Cabbage Rolls, Falafel, Taboulie, Moujadara, and Labne. There was so much food, I thought I was at my Sittoo's (grandmother's) again! Our mother's would have been proud to know there is a Lebanese restaurant that is so authentic to the foods she grew up on, the same way she cooked them, and the way she taught her children. The Mousakaa, which is an eggplant based dish, was perfectly simmered in a tomato sauce with the most delicious flavors cooked into it. The Spinach Pies were stuffed to the brim with a slight hint of lemon and onion and One Old Chick said she could eat them all day because the bread dough was outstanding. The Kibbee, which is made from lamb, was tender, perfectly formed, and had pine nuts to add to the flavor. And the hommous was better than anything you can ever buy at the store, which we would never do anyway. The Vegetarian Grape Leaves were stuffed with rice, chick peas, tomatoes and onions. I think John (the owner) has his own garden because the eggplant in the baba ghanoush tasted like it was freshly made with a slight hint of garlic. The Stuffed Cabbage Rolls are perfectly sized with lamb, rice and garlic and a smidgeon of lemon. Delicious. The Falafel was fresh and tender, and a vegetarian's dream of a great dish. Sometimes we save the best for last, and one of them was the Moujadara, a lentil dish with rice and Lebanese seasonings, topped with fried onions. OMG! But then, folks, came dessert. And if you want the most delicious desserts this side of Lebanon, you better head over to Hanna's. The baklawa melted in your mouth and the Knafe (pronounced "Kanafee") which is a warm cheese pastry soaked in a sugar based syrup is enough to send your senses into heaven. We are so glad we went early before the tables were all filled! We were so impressed with the food at Hanna's we decided that it's time we visit Lebanon next year. It's no wonder they were voted Best of the Best Restaurants by Connecticut Magazine! read more

Food was not authentic Mediterranean. Ambiance was good and service was fast. The Turkish tea was good and the baklava but the main course was below average. Toum served with shawarma was too garlicky. Wouldn't recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic Lebanese food. read more
