Every dish a complete piece of artwork and absolutely delicious. We had the 10 piece appetizer plate and as my main entree I tried the lamb shank and I am not sorry I did. Some of the best lamb I have ever had in my life. Tender and delicate beyond belief. Every dish had such complex flavor even the simply side dish of rice that came with the Shrimp dish. I felt obligated to eat all of the rice that came with my girlfriends dinner after I was done with my meal because it was so good. The service was fantastic also very warm and kind all of the staff was amazing! What a great meal highly recommend! This place also has lots of phenomenal vegetarian options available. While I am not a vegetarian, my sister is and she can find lots of options here. Go eat here I cannot recommend enough but I would consider reservations as it was slammed busy when we got there!

I ordered the falafel-teller platter, which came with five falafel balls, humus, tzatziki sauce,…read moreand two vegetable sides. I chose cauliflower and chickpeas. The portions were very generous, so I was definitely full after finishing my meal. The cauliflower was my favorite part of the dish; it was spectacular, and I would definitely order this as a side if you come here. The falafel was good but not excellent -- I really enjoyed the texture (very soft yet crispy outside), but I didn't think it tasted as great as other falafel I've had (it was still yummy, though, don't get me wrong). Chickpeas aren't my favorite, so I don't know why I ordered this side, and I thought they were decent but not amazing (I enjoyed the tomato sauce). The tzatziki sauce was excellent (very flavorful), and I really enjoyed this along with the humus, which tasted great as a dip for the pita and falafel. The staff was very accommodating, and I liked the setup of the (small) restaurant quite a bit, with a variety of seating arrangements including lower couch-side seats. Overall, this restaurant had excellent service, atmosphere, and food, so I would highly recommend eating here. Although the falafel wasn't excellent, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and also saw some other great looking dishes around (including a fried empanada). I will be back here for sure.

Azeitona's charm comes from its rundown but cozy establishment. Great place to eat really cheap and…read morereally good food. I had the mezze for 2 and It was wonderful. My personal favorite: their hummus! The place is perfect to hang out with friends, but it's not that big...so don't plan your next birthday party over there. On the downside, staff might have been very friendly but they were rather inattentive. Also, I had a pomegranate lassi which was not nice at all. It was small and way too sweet (taste was rather artificial). If you want to drink something opt for tea. Other than that, I can't wait to try another dish. Mucho love, D.

We visited this restaurant on a Friday evening with a group of 8. There was a reservation for us to…read moreensure a table, but honestly it was probably unnecessary. The place was not empty, but was not busy for a Friday at 7 pm. For our large group, we ordered 4 rounds of the Bekaa Mesa, their largest assortment of appetizers, to start. This meant that about 30 or so small plates of dips, meats, and finger foods was brought to our table. They were all elegantly prepared, and many of them paired great with the baskets of pita provided for the table (which we had to keep refilling). My only complaint was the unclear response from our server when we asked what dishes had nuts. My partner is allergic to all kinds, so we wanted to know which dishes to avoid. Our servers gestured to some plates but was mostly unclear of which dishes we should for sure avoid. I stressed a little as we ate, but it all went (and tasted) well. After this, some people ordered main meals, dessert, or more appetizers. I personally got another mesa, as I enjoyed being able to taste so many things. My partner got the schisch taouk, and I can say I was jealous. His plate looked amazing. Also note that it comes with half a pita pizza and potatoes, as well as the salad, dip, and chicken listed on the menu. I sampled some of it (when he let me), and it was amazing. In conclusion, I greatly enjoyed my food here. My complaints would be that the menu is not descriptive enough of the dishes, meaning you are not truly sure of what you order. As the partner of someone with many allergies, this can be a source of stress, and we would have appreciated more empathy from the staff with these concerns.

A very chic Lebanese Restaurant. The service is very good…read more The only waiter there, is very friendly, but yet very serious and professional. the way he served us the food and drinks was more than impressive. The mezza has a wide choice, and if you have a special request they usually comply. We asked for the 7 dishes mezza and asked for an extra plate of Labneh (a less liquid sort of yogurt) and they got it for us with no extra charge. the meza was vegetarian but we also ordered a plate of Kebbe! It was very good. I had the chicken dish: djaj a frike but my friends had the Meat Makloube! It was delicious, much better than the chicken. which was nonetheless really good. We had lebanese wine: Clos St Thomas! I personally loved it. At the end they offered us coffee for free! It was very good. the arabic mocca coffee! Very lebanesy, puts you in the mood! So if you have a special occasion, and you want to have exotic food. And on Fridays as of 9, theres a belly dancer, which unlike i imagined, was not german! She was a pure bread arab belly dancer, and she did a good show, inviting the patrons to dance along, and teach the women to shake their booty! Its the place to go it deserves its 5 stars

Delicious Middle Eastern food, great location, and good service, too…read more We came here for lunch after our Hamburg friend recommended their cuisine. The location was perfect -- outdoor tables with umbrellas, overlooking a canal. We lazily watched the swans and ducks as we enjoyed our food. Although they didn't have a menu in English, we were able to point to what we wanted and and ended up with a delicious meal. The "sampler" appetizer tray was great and the ingredients very fresh (eggplant, cauliflower, carrots, spinach with pomegranate seeds, hummus, etc.) Homemade pita bread too. The shrimp and the rice pilaf were delicious as well. My wife had the lamb -- and she said it was the best lamb she had ever tasted. Prices were reasonable (for Germany, that is!) Thanks for a great meal.

Large windows let in sunlight and pillows line the bench. They also have several small tables outside along the cafe. The other surprise was the size of the Donner kabob I ordered. They have bread and rolled options, I went with the bread and it was huge. The bread was soft, slightly toasted and warm. The chicken inside was really good as was the sauce, my only real complaint was wanting more sauce, more evenly distributed. They also use a cabbage mix for the veggies, while my personnel presence is just lettuce along with the tomato and cucumber. Good price, good food, friendly staff.
