We both had starters and mains and shared a desert. I had the mixed grill and the meat was very fresh and well cooked it was well-presented with some fresh salad, rice and a spicy tomato sauce.

The service was very friendly and attentive. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone and I will definitely be returning, hopefully soon!

I realise that kicking off with a five star review for somewhere I've tried once might be jumping…read morethe gun, but I really think that these guys are a quality outfit. Picture the scene: a weary traveller having just spent 24 hours making her way home. Having stuffed herself beyond decency with calorific foreign delights, healthy food was required, and stat. That seems like a paradox - healthy take away? I know, but my friends, it can be done! Here's how. Lebanese and Middle Eastern treats. Of course, the dishes aren't exclusively healthy, there's still a bit of frying and such going on, but when you've had your mouth around the delectably green and fresh Tabbouleh parsley salad, you'll know you've hit flavour country. Never have I delighted in eating greens more. But why choose this place over the established Shawarma? For some reason, these guys' online menu is a lot more happening. I've been known to go overboard when Just Eating and, on this occasion, I didn't buck the trend. Yes, dropping £25+ was very much overkill, but when there's so much to pick from I get carried away. Plus I've perfected the reheating system so my take aways often fuel me for two days in the very least... Don't ask, I know. (Lazy, strange, gluttonous. All of the above.) Anyway, here's what I ordered, and here's how it tasted. For the aforementioned princely sum, I was able to stuff myself with Tabbouleh, Wark Inab, Falafel, Batata Hara, Houmous, Halloumi Cheese Sandwich, Sambousek, Lamb Shawarma, Kibbeh Shameyleh, and Arayes Dubai. A veritable feast of flavour and texture. The portions, given the price, were incredibly generous - take the Wark Inab (vine leaves with rice) - for £3 you get about seven of those bad boys. The Lamb Shawarma meal itself is a whole pile of deliciousness, and how they managed to season and flavour the thinly sliced lamb, I have no idea. In that dish, the boxed meal even came with salad, houmous, garlic mayo, and a few other treats - there were even a few chips! What a boon. In particular, the salad, potatoes (batata) and lamb meal deserve special mention. All of the above was beautifully cooked, and deliciously fresh to taste, but those really stood out for me among the goodies on offer. With this kind of food, you really do need a wee group of you so you can bulk order and share, as all the flavours combined make a truly lovely eating experience. Even the random fluorescent pink vegetable (no idea what it was in the end) was flippin' tasty! Anyway, rambling over, long story short, I loved this place. As filling as any Chinese/Indian meal, but much less heavy and full of fresh and moreish tastes. When each item sets you back between £3-6, it's not only a delicious way to spend some cash, but a very bargainous way to dine.

I've gotta say that I'm pretty pleased I used my trusty Yelp app to find this place, in fact it's…read morebeen on my radar for a while thanks to reading some great reviews from fellow Yelpers - but as I arrived in Rusholme and whacked out my app, it was handy to stand outside and have another good read of reviews which cemented my decision to go in! Basically this place does amazing Middle Eastern/Lebanese cuisine and on this occasion with it being Friday lunch time, I popped in just as they were doing their all you can eat buffet. For £11.95 I tucked into some amazing kofta, breads, dips, salad, wings - wow, so much great food just check out my snaps - plus there was lovely cake and pudding included to follow. The food was wonderful and tasty - really nice! To round off I bought an Arabic cardamom tea which was fantastic - really nice and complimented the meal well. It was nice to go somewhere not on my normal radar, I'll be back!

In the heart of where else but Manchester's curry mile will you find..... wait for it... BEIRUT!?…read moreYes that is indeed right. Nope its not a randomly named curry house, Beirut serves food deliciouso Lebanese-o! For those not in the know, Manchester's curry mile has seen a mini Middle eastern revolution of its own. The Mile of curry is now equipped with a plethora of Shisha bars as well as restaurants such as Beirut. In honestly of alls, my first impression of the place was not great. The capital could be described as chaotic from the kids running around whilst parents going to town on their meat feasts to the directionless type waiting staff, more laid back than the kobedas on show. First impressions however don't last and I'm here to announce that the food thankfully did make a lasting impression. I'd personally recommend the mixed grill, even if I struggled to get through half of it. Don't be put off by the cover, its the contents of the book that count. If Beirut was a book, I would highly recommend it, it was a great read.

The reason i walked into this place the first time was a bit weird. I wanted to get something to…read moreeat and I was thinking to have a nice sandwich so I walked towards the sandwich shops that are in Headingley. There I had a small problem I know both the owners to the shops that were opposite to each other and I was feeling bad if I walk to one instead of the other so I was standing outside trying to decide what to do. Then I looked at the window of mind cafe and there I saw the magic word "COXINHA" It's a Brazilian yummy food. My mom used to make it on special occasions and I love that food. So without second thought I walked in. I'm happy I didn't get disappointed. The size of them are I think a touch smaller than a tennis ball if not the same size and they are really yummy. Second time I went with Rowena I still went with the C. but to make up for it since I wanted to try something new I tried the crepe with nutela, I did ask to have also a banana but they forgot to put it. Mistakes like that happens since it wasn't even on the menu, I just kinda missed mach from what was on the list. They did apologize for the mistake but it was still really delicious that I didn't mind about it. They some times have events, had a friend perform couple of times but unfortunalely wasn't able to go to be able to give you more details on that. But keep an eye for them. They usually post it on their window and their Facebook page.

If you're not often wandering up and down North Lane on your travels, chances are you'll have…read moremissed the arrival of this quaint cafe. I'd spotted it a while back, but only bobbed in for a nosy at the vintage, so when I had a chance to check it out proper I was pretty pleased. Not least because my initial judgement of this place was a little off - I'd scooped out the vintage and wasn't too impressed, so made the poor assumption that the food might not be too great either. Books, covers - you know the phrase. So, firstly, the lovely Natalia and I dived downstairs to the basement to reacquaint ourselves with the clothing. There's a few nice pieces there, some great woollen skirts, but much of the rest still isn't for me. There's a rail full of addidas style jackets for one, and those just aren't to my liking. However, the small collection of lamps is pretty cute, so do have a peek. Next, the cafe. It's pretty cosy in the front room, but there's a whole back room too if you're feeling hemmed in. We took the window seat, and besides knocking over a sugar bowl, it was a lovely cosy spot to sit in, with waiter service. Perfect! After having coxihnas (spelling may be wrong here) explained to me by N, I decided to choose one of those and the grilled halloumi salad. The range of Lebanese delights on the menu offers up a great selection, most of it being healthy too. Another thing - the prices are great, making it really easy to have a filling lunch under a tenner. I had the cinnamon tea, which was lovely, but perhaps a little less flavoursome than I'd have liked. I do like a strong taste though, and so it'd be perfect for those of a milder palate. However, the vanilla latte I had later was fabulous and strong as you like. The service here is beautifully relaxed and friendly too. You wait a while, but that only means things are cooked fresh, which is something of a rarity in certain places. I have to say, the coxhinas were delicious. Proper comfort food, slow to eat, and tasty through and through. It's basically a breaded ball of potato-y-ness, with shredded and spiced chicken inside, from what I could gather. Looks like a scotch egg, but far superior! The halloumi came in a huge portion, and was utterly delicious. I couldn't finish! Blink, and you could find that three hours have ticked by in this lovely relaxed place. The food is wonderful, and the family that run it absolutely lovely. Dotted around are little notices and flyers for local goings on, and the vibe of the space is easy to soak in. Whilst I might not return for a vintage find, I'll certainly be back to sample some more authentic home cooked goodies, and catch up with friends. Absolutely worth popping in and grabbing something fresh.

I'm always interested in new shops opening in Leeds Market as I like to support local business' and…read moretraders so I was excited to try Shawarma. A Lebanese and Halal 'pop up' stall situated in the 'Upper' part of the market near the haberdashery shop and flower stall (and close to the Source) which has an array of smells and sights to strike up interest from most people who pass by. (not sure if it's to be a permanent stall). So, new year, new adventure. I went here for lunch with my friend Al who always likes to try new stuff. The staff are very encouraging, explaining what they offer and showing you how its made. There are 10/12 choices on the menu- I chose veggie, Al chose chicken. The food is prepared and cooked in front of you so you have to wait and watch. it's mainly done on a grill or the veggie stuff (mainly being falafel) is shallow fried before being 'wrapped' and warmed on a panini maker! There were dishes of olives and hummus on the counter and you could see all the ingredients that go into your order. The prices are reasonable too= £4.50 or less per wrap/kebab etc. I was happy with my falafel wrap but it was a tad lacking in the spicy punch I expected, Al like his 'kebab cake' (we couldn't remember the actual name!) It was nice to experience different cuisine in a handy way and not be so stuffed after but next time I'm gonna be brave and ask for something a bit spicier! I think this is a break off shop from the Shawarma on Raglan Road in Headingley but having never been there I couldn't be sure- they do both seem to offer similar if not the same menu!

I loved the chicken bastilla that I had in Marrakech and had hoped for the same with this one. It wasn't bad but can't say it was the best.

Service was good, friendly and quick. I would try it again but would opt for something different.

Don't be put off by the slightly communist feel to the signage, this is a cheap, friendly and comfortable restaurant offering a delicious selection of Lebanese and Mediterranean inspired dishes. The staff are always friendly and seem to treat me like a family member every time I visit. The prices are fantastically cheap but quality and flavour doesn't lose out in order to save a few pennies. The recent reopening has bought a slightly changed menu which now serves the most fantastic calamari around the £3 mark as well as a great selection of barbecued meats for main courses. Desserts aren't offered but I've always been given a delicious fresh fruit platter at the end of the meal and with a three course meal including good quality wine costing at most £10 per head, La Roche as it's now known is well worth a visit.
