    Great spot in Kirkland ! Lovely decor and vibe in the restaurant, super friendly staff, very attentive. I didn't realize until I asked the staff, but this restaurant is a sister to Mamnoon in seattle ( big favorite of mine) The food is just as good however they do not have the beet dish shamandar , the menus are a bit different. Just to keep in mind.

    Muhammad's- appetizer served with Arabic bread
    Mary C.

    Tried out this Lebanese restaurant first time for a quick bite. The atmosphere was bright , roomy with windows. There are round tables for 4 and 6 people which are great for social gathers. The service was great. Loved the server Aischa who gave us her recommendations. We ordered Muhammara and Lamb Kefta Kebab. The Muhammara had amazing spice and the nutty texture. It came with 'house arabic bread'. It only came with 3 little pieces but we requested for more. Lamb kebab was excellent with great flavor, charcoaled texture, and a side that is a great balance of grilled marinated red peppers. Will definitely be back for to try the lunch menu.

    Chicken kebab and jeweled rice
    Ann T.

    Pleasantly surprised but how healthy the food tasted. Light but flavorful. Smaller portions so be warned to order enough. The jeweled rice is worth trying, altho a small cup of rice but delicious and needed with the protein dishes. Decorations are clean and tasteful

    Halloumi
    Bessie C.

    A little bit challenging to find as it's in a shopping complex. Located across from Lululemon. Love the interior vibrant decor. All the kebabs are delicious (steak and mushroom) and the halloumi was one of my faves. Server was super friendly and attentive but accidentally spilled a whole glass of cocktail on me... I shall never wear white again lol.

    Falafel

    Six of us were able to get a reservation same day and were excited to try this spot, We loved the ambience and the food was good--it was the best hummus I've ever had, the mushroom kebabs were fantastic, as were the other main plates we tried (the lamb ribs, chicken kebabs, and lamb kebabs) were amazing. The issue unfortunately was portion size... the kebab plates don't come with a side except for a salad... we ordered rice with which added $8 per plate but I know what some have mentioned and maybe it's having teenagers but was surprised how small the portions were and how much we had to order as a result. The food was wonderful just for the more casual atmosphere I wasn't expecting to spend as much as we did!

    Crispy halloumi
    Maya R.

    Such a nice spot to grab dinner! Went on a weekday and was easy to get seating. Ordered two dishes per person for a nice variety of options and some leftovers for home. Really enjoyed the spices and flavorfulness of every dish - everything was unique and tasty. We had the crispy halloumi, sweet batata harra, fatoosh salad, and the lamb skewer. It is a little pricey but a nice experience with friendly service and a nice atmosphere.

    Really food service & food.. Hummus was preety food Not much food options.. Whatever we tried was tasty There lunch & dinner is different.. Wanted to have there fries & shawarma but that just available in lunch..

    Lamb kabob dinner.  Just one skewer of meat only with no side dish. Not enough for dinner.

    Very nice restaurant. Nice design and I like the space between tables. Great service too. Nice open Kitchen. Very clean too. The appetizer plate with humus and three other items was ok. I personally had a much better hummus before. The Halloumi cheese was ok. It was cold and this cheese is much better when it's hot and soft. The cauliflower dish was delicious I ordered the lamb kabobs which was delicious but unfortunately it did not come with anything else ?? A side of rice would have been great. Because of that I give the place four stars.

    Falafel happy hour and apricot cocktail
    Hanna S.

    Great food, great music great cocktails Thanks to James for making the fabulous apricots sumac_ ~iri. I told him I didn't want it to be too acidic, so he was late on the lime and it was perfectly balanced. And happy hour this is $12 instead of 14. And that falafel dish five dollars on happy hour is a great deal. I've had falafel in many places in the world, and this one is fantastic. OK I wish the garlic yogurt was vegan. I didn't even ask because I am assuming it's probably not. . Take a look at my photo. They serve it with wonderful, purple cabbage. Everything was perfect. I came here at about 445 on Monday and it was very quiet. Sometimes that actually can work against you because you may have staff moving slowly and the beginners in the kitchen. However. It was perfect. They make a chocolate chip cookie with tahini and sea salt. That might sound strange but if you're a fan of chocolate chip cookies, it is delightful. I will definitely be returning.

    Shawarma and harra fries
    Ash G.

    I keep wanting to give this place a chance to up its game and I'm usually left perplexed, some dishes are so yummy I cannot get enough and then they miss the mark on other but what I can only think of as trying too hard. This is absolutely the hill I'm going to die on, your bread needs to be a larger serving than what you have, if not entirely unlimited as is custom in almost every Lebanese/Shami restaurant. We ordered the hummus, great flavor with 3 little pieces of bread (we went ahead and order more bread and were given 3 more little pieces of bread). This is the same case when we ordered the Mezza last time, hence the ordering of the second "basket" of bread. We also ordered the Halloumi Salad, which was utter perfection, a little bit of apple and honey to accompany beautifully fried halloumi pieces. I love a good Batatah Harra but I do wish it was in the traditional form of crispy potato pieces and not whole mini potatoes as the potato skin doesn't hold as much of the flavor, the garlic sauce with is absolutely divine. Lets move on to the mains we ordered 2 Shish Tawook and 1 Lamb Kebab and we really should have done it the other way round. The kebab was so delicious, the flavors were on point and the cook was perfect, would definitely order again. The Shish Tawook missed on several levels it was very bland and I didn't like the cuts they used, the dish is usually very flavorful but this one just didn't work even with the garlic spread although the accompanying salad was very yummy. We also order a 2 side of their rice (we requested no dried fruit) as the mains came with no rice, come on guys really, the rice itself was nicely perfumed and herbaceous. The service was ok if a little awkward but nothing I'd ding them points for and the interior is always beautiful. I would also suggest that they keep the shawarma on the dinner menu, I for one cannot make it there for lunch and it would be great if it were available all day.

    Chicken wrap
    Linda T.

    I've dined here more than a handful of times and it's been delicious each time. The service members have been accommodating and kind. The restaurant can feel laid back during the lunch hour then a bit more of a dinner party vibe at night. We've had lunch, dinner, and brunch here and dinner is probably my favorite because of the larger menu offered. All four dips are good, but something about the caramelized onions in the labneh dip is out of this world good. We had the chicken wrap and lamb wrap today for lunch and it was amazing. The lamb didn't have much meat in it, but the chicken wrap was stuffed to the brim. Love that the wraps come with salad and frites as well. Great fry with their own spin on ketchup. I'm craving it right now! Can't wait to be back for another great time here.

    AVOID THIS SERVER! WORST ‍
    Kevin V.

    All I can say is WOW... NOT IN A GOOD WAY. Came here today for lunch for my girlfriend's birthday and had high hopes until it crashed and burned fast! Sat down and ordered shawarma wrap and a falafel wrap. Basic lunch items and the restaurant at less than half capacity. Fast forward 35 minutes and we are still waiting for the food... THEN when the food finally came everything was cold as ice and she could care less. Especially the fries and when I mentioned it to the waitress she got an AGGRESSIVE ATTITUDE and became rude and unpleasant. She did not smile once and clearly doesn't like her job or working weekends who knows but the customer should NEVER feel that. The Owner should be embarrassed he didn't come once to check on the situation and rectify anything until I physically GOT UP OUT OF MY SEAT and told him the fries were cold and had to flag him down to get my check since the waitress was blatantly ignoring us. He was definitely not the owner you'd expect from a nice restaurant. He acted as if it were a normal thing to wait that long for cold expensive food as if we were in a McDonald's drive thru. He didn't apologize once for the waitress or the food and this is NOT ACCEPTABLE. As an owner of a business you should take responsibility and rectify the situation. Not run away and pretend you are a busboy. will NEVER EVER BE RETURNING. Take your business to a place that cares about customer service. This place is a joke but has potential to be amazing with the right staff and MANAGEMENT.

    Moushakal (mezze mix) $28 + extra Arabic bread, $4 - 2 Stars
    Eva M.

    No change to previous review. All content there is still relevant, except they update their menu regularly so not all dishes stay available. They still have the dinner/upscale dining, the casual wraps take-out window, and bar seating happy hour menu. The restaurant has nice deco. They aim for upscale, and their prices reflect it. In retrospect, it is expensive for what the food is. Our server today was constantly hurrying us, offering to take our plates away at all times. No one is waiting for a table, and it wasn't near closing time. It was rather annoying. Dropping 0.5 stars, bringing a 2.7 average food rating to 2.2, rounding down to 2 Stars for this review. Newly tried dishes, all from dinner menu: Moushakal (mezze mix) $28 + extra Arabic bread, $4 - 2 Stars This mezze platter comes with a little dollop of Basal Labneh (yogurt), Baba Ganoush (eggplant), Hummus, and Muhammara (red pepper). I honestly have had better versions of each one, most recently in San Francisco. What I object to the most is the price. That is very expensive for the amount of food we got. Halloumi, $7 (I think) - 3 Stars This dish contains 5 pieces of grilled salty cheese. One of my table mates loved it. Another said it could be crispier. 2 others were neutral. Batata Harra, $16 - 3.5 Stars Menu: crispy fingerling potatoes, green garlic bi zeit, pickled fresno, labneh toum This is one of the better dishes. Well-seasoned, crispy fried. A spendy French fries, sort of. Aleppo Spiced Eggplant, $23 - 2.5 Stars Menu: roasted eggplant, naz khatoon, red shatta, aleppo, herbs It doesn't seem possible for a dish that visually looks very good to taste ok+. Somehow, there's too much going on. The roasted eggplant didn't retain "body", so it's much more on the squishy side than the roasted firm side. And each strip is sitting on a lot of sauce, such that if it was firmer, it isn't anymore. The idea is good; the execution is not. Plus, it's also expensive. There are about 1.5 to 2 (Chinese?) eggplants on this plate. Shish Taouk, $28 - 2.5 Stars Menu: yogurt-marinated chicken kebab, sugar snap peas, morel mushrooms, black lime toum, fresh herb mix The chicken is well seasoned and flavorful. I might order this again, but I suspect I will not be returning to this restaurant.

Based on decor I wondered if it had been a pub or steakhouse once in its life: lots of paneled and coffered wood, chandeliers, and wooden booths with coat hangers. We started with the baba ghanouj and ordered the fesenjan and a beef kobideh for meals. The meals came with a salad to share rather than small individual salads on the plate which was a nice touch. The staff was able to provide some veggies with the baba ghanouj since my partner in crime can't have bread. The baba ghanouj was great - exactly the smoky eggplant flavor I was craving when I saw the sign for Persian cuisine. The kobideh was nice and tender - you could taste the onion. The fesenjan was also extremely good. One question: Who eats this much rice in one dish? The rice was very good - but it is a lot of rice. I haven't had Persian like this since we had Persian neighbors who invited us over.

The center area hosted a huge group with multiple tables pushed together. I have avoided Zeitoon all these years because they are higher cost, not necessarily justifiable since there are lower cost Persian foods or similar Mediterranean restaurants in the area. I finally decided to try them. Our server answered my questions, including his favorites. Two questionable/sketchy things happened: 1. Our server recommended the Mirza Ghasemi, which he said is great with the optional soft-boiled egg. Sounds good. We ordered it. The optional egg is $2, which is not identified on the menu. (See photo) 2. When he recommended the Mirza Ghasemi, we asked him to remove the Mast O Khiar which we initially chose. I said we only want one appetizer. He nodded and said OK. When the Mirza Ghasemi arrived, so did the Mast O Khiar. They put both on the table and immediately left. I flagged the original server to remind him we said to remove it, but a different person showed up instead. He: "You want to cancel this? No problem." and took the yogurt away. I did not order this; it is not me canceling. Minus 0.5 stars from overall rating. The Food: Mirza Ghasemi + egg, $14 +$2 - 2.5 Stars This eggplant dish is the one recommended by our server. We do enjoy eggplant dips, especially warm versions. The optional "soft boiled egg" is not an American version but tiny threads of yellow egg bits mixed within the eggplant mixture. Honestly, we cannot taste the egg. It is borderline a scam. This dish would be 3.5 stars if it was $14 at the menu price, which is already on the high side. A $16 eggplant dish is delusional. Lamb Shishlik Kebab, $36 - 3.5 Stars Menu: Lamb rack marinated and chargrilled (see menu photo) I knew I would not see a rack of lamb on my plate. I got four lamb chops. Meat quality wise, this is excellent. It comes with a ton of basmati rice and a salad with a refreshing light dressing. This is a bit spendy for the quantity of meat, but taste is good. Soltani Shishlik, $42 - 3.5 Stars This is the exact same dish as above except add a skewer of grounded beef kebab. This kebab, and I quote my hubby, is "not that good". Same comment for the rest of the dish. A basket of lavash bread arrived at the table. I believe it came with the Mirza Ghasemi. We have eaten many lavash breads, commonly used as wrap so it is grilled and/or heat-pressed with oil on the surface. These lavash breads are simply warmed. I learned they taste terrible that way. The surface has a sandpaper texture and still taste like sandpaper when eating it. If I paid for this separately, I would be upset.

In long Meeting an old friend for lunch, I looked for the best place that was close to halfway between us. I knew he dug Persian, but, for all the Middle Eastern and Mediterranean I've tried, this was my first venture. Safe to say I was long overdue for this exploration. 100th is pretty dense with little strip malls and mixed-use retail/residential for miles through here. A couple blocks away, you're in very leafy suburbia, but this stretch of road is 4 lanes and endless business district. BBMC is tucked on the east side of the street in a corner suite, plenty of parking. The dining room isn't much bigger than the back of most moving trucks you've loaded in your life; there's seating for maybe 20, and about 4 more on the little sidewalk patio. There's a clean and spacious washroom in back, though getting a wheelchair in there might take some doing. You get laminated menus and a carafe of water within a minute of sitting. It's not the longest menu, but evidently pretty extensive by Persian standards. We both went for grilled kebabs with basmati rice and salad. I was on duty to bring home a full serving of leftovers, so I went with the King's Choice. Great big salad, and a huge tray of rice. This is clearly designed for at least 2 to share. As it happens, that was the plan, since we're having leftovers for dinner at home. The salad has tons of fresh veg and a nice herbaceous yogurt dressing. No sauce on the meat or rice, but there's a ton of flavor from perfectly-balanced dry seasoning. The beef, ground beef, and chicken kebabs were all bursting with moisture and flavor, cooked just to perfect doneness, and showing nice little hints of grill scoring. I paid a little over $70 for what will be 3 servings of food (at least), and I haven't even tried the eggplant appetizer yet. I grabbed that to go. This place is worth many repeat visits, and I'd be in here regularly if I lived closer.
