I'm of Lebanese descent and have traveled extensively throughout the Middle East, so I know authentic cuisine. Initially, the pictures of this restaurant looked appealing, but the experience was far from satisfactory. The food took an unreasonably long to arrive, and the portions were disappointingly small. The flavors were nowhere near authentic Lebanese; it felt like a lackluster fusion of Mediterranean influences that missed the mark entirely.
To make matters worse, the pricing is exorbitant. I was charged for items I didn't even order. When I inquired about it, they claimed there was a mix-up with another table. I was slapped with a $50 charge for a bottle of wine that we never ordered, despite only requesting two glasses, which we didn't enjoy. The staff insisted that once the bottle was opened, I was obliged to pay for it - a policy that's unjust.
It appears the owner may have ties to something dubious, as nothing about this establishment seems aboveboard. This is not a restaurant; it operates more like a hookah lounge with subpar food and a terrible reputation. I strongly advise against visiting this place--I certainly will never return. It's a scam, not a legitimate dining experience. read more
