Avo Smash - excellent dish
George S.

Outstanding food, brilliant service and very welcoming atmosphere. We have been here quite a few times now and it's been amazing every time. Different flavours for everyone. Do yourself a favour and come enjoy Ave Cucina.

Scrumdiddlyicious!!!!! Yes siree Bob, this place is the cats whiskers!!! Have just been blown away by how good this food was. Popped in for breakfast on a weekday and had no problems getting a table at around 8am. I had the 'vege delight' and my friend had the 'winter french toast'. Both meals were exceptional. Filling but not stodgy. I couldn't believe how easily it all went down even though it looked huge on first inspection! Lovely service staff. Friendly and efficient. Comfortable interior. Great coffee and freshly squeezed juices as well. A real treat. We'll definitely be going back for more of this goodness :)

I will admit from the outset Lebanese is not my favourite cuisine but I do love fresh food & good…read moreservice and this joint has both in ABUNDANCE. in fact the service is GREAT. Now lets get the look of the place out of the way. A sparkling clean takeaway with tables. Upmarket kebab shop would about cover it. It also had gas heaters which were welcome. Lastly, but definitely not least, the food was Great with a capital G. Fresh, plentiful & heaps of flavour. The platters large & full of tempting tasties. (We ordered #1 & #7 on the platters menu) Both came with fresh Pita, tabbouli & really good, strong flavoured dips. #1 included a selection of rolls & pastries. #7 was a choice of chicken or lamb. No room for sweets but I was tempted. Next time. And there will be a next time. Will definately go again ... for the SERVICE alone. He was lovely.

Truly Brisbane's best kept secret!…read more Firstly, this is not a fine dining establishment, it's more like a take away shop with outdoor (street side) seating, but don't let that put you off! The food & service more than makes up for what this place lacks in ambiance. The (who we believe to be) owner is incredibly friendly, patient & helpful, happy to explain each dish and make recommendations. He's also quick with a joke & loves to have a chat, giving excellent personal service. We'd gone here on a Living Social voucher, and were wary as past voucher experiences had been a bit hit & miss. At Ba'Albek however, we were treated the same as all the other diners. The voucher entitled us to the Banquet off the menu, usually reserved for 4 people, a selection of 8 tapas style dishes & 2 meat skewers each, followed by coffee & baklava. To say the food was delicious would be an understatment, it was amazing! The hommus & falafel were the best I've ever eaten, and the rest of the dishes were an impressive assortment of new experiences. So fresh & full of flavour, kudos to the chef. And there was just so much of it, we were willing to forego the coffee & desert, but the owner insisted we take the baklava home & we were so glad he did, it was absolutely divine, melt-in-your-mouth good! Do yourselves a favour, eat here!

If you are down to the last bit of shrapnel in your pocket and in search of a solid feed…read more. absolutely go here!! $4.00 falafel wrap. Add some eggplant and hot chili sauce and you are set!!! I would suggest asking them to go light on the salad and heavy on the hummus. But be careful as sometimes the girls will give you dirty looks if you ask for too many changes, I dont really think they like to do work. Sitting outside is usually a bit nicer as the inner section can be a bit blah and gets hot during the warmer months.

I was craving middle eastern food while visiting my parents and when my god-parents wanted to have…read morelunch one day I suggested we go and have a middle eastern meal. My god-mother's friend suggested King Ahiram. The place is just a take-out place with an adjoining room with tables and chairs where you can have a "sit-down" meal. So we ended up ordering a selection of items. I don't know. I am used to going to Little Arabia for my middle eastern food here in southern California and my favorite place in Brisbane is Nono's and omg.... the food here was kinda on the dismal side. I felt really bad that my parents and god-parents had to sit through a different cuisine which I've been touting as so fabulously delicious only to be faced with really sub-par Mediterranean food. We had falafels, hummus, babaghanoush, kebabs, these crescent pastry things which looked like empanadas -- everything was mediocre at best. The meat was dry, the dips needed more olive oil.... falafels were hard as rocks. Tabouleh was flavorless. I never heard the end of it after the meal, even from my son who is an avid fan of this cuisine. We are definitely going back to Nono's next time.
