That day's offering was lentil that was flavored with lemon juice. Exquisite. We shared an order of hummus, tabouleh, and burrak. The portions were large and both the hummus and tabouleh were enough for two more meals for me. My friend avoids red meat, lamb, goat--pretty much mammal meat--and the selections that excluded these were pretty extensive. The restaurant also has a market in the same strip mall area. There were several tables that had animated patrons who were being attended to throughout the meal. The temperature was comfortable, the space was spotless, and the presentation of the food was attractive. There was ample parking. I was in Exton for an event that was held at the Hilton. What a lovely diversion and delicious choice. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

She had a nice variety of items from hummus and Lebanese breads to baklava and other treats. On this day we sampled her falafel wrap, as I'm always trying to find the best falafel in central PA (which is quite a challenge). We were very impressed, as Rola's falafel is the best I've had in Pennsylvania! Perfectly seasoned and cooked with the texture I was looking for in my falafel. The white sauce served with the pita wrap was very good and paired nicely with the falafel and a slice of juicy tomato! If you are looking for amazing falafel and other Lebanese food, Rola's is the place to go.

The food was even better than before with flavors that are more pronounced and the dessert was just unreal with huge portions. Our waiter, Lance, was also amazing! Very sweet guy who took the time to give us recommendations and just overall great personality and service. I hope they are able to take this place and make it into something wonderful and full every night because they deserve it. We've been coming here every Mother's Day for many years now and it's never been as good as it was tonight. Thank you guys for making our day great, wish you all the best!

The Cedars of Lebanon is an easily-overlooked cafe right on the corner of the Old Greenbelt…read moreShopping Center which is a lovely hidden gem. I spent every summer in this town, growing up, and I never discovered this restaurant until a precious friend brought me here a few years ago. It's a dated, though efficient, and charming, cafe with fresh dishes you might love. Firstly, if you plan on having lunch here on a Monday, make sure you are able to finish by 2:45 since they close by 3pm. All other days, they are open past 8pm. We started with the sweet potato soup despite the fact that the reviews for the lentil soup here are the highest. Yes! If it's featured: get it! The turmeric and coconut milk make this soup delightful. The herbs made it so fresh and there was just the right amount of sweetness and gentle heat. Parsley really adds to this recipe and I'm not usually a fan of this herb. The pitas are soft, thin and light. Love them. We needed to order more. I've never had such paper-thin pitas. Yum! I love love love the hummus, here. It is nothing short of divine. The flavors are fabulous and deeply complex. You can really taste the tahini. The olive oil is mild and delicious. I exclaimed, "the hummus was the best ever." And then 5 minutes later, I read a review by Yelper James H. where he says it's the best ever and, "... this hummus at Cedars of Lebanon might have ruined all other hummus for me forever." While I've had similar swooning feelings over the hummus at Lebanese Taverna in Tyson's Corner, this hummus is at least a top contender if not the metro DC area's hummus winner. The cucumber mint yogurt salad is nice, cold and refreshing. You can really taste the mint. I would order this yogurt salad with every meal. The falafel pizza is unusual and fresh. Straight away-- you can taste the tahini, parsley and couscous. The dough is grainy and natural. And there are radishes on this falafel pizza: not overpowering. For the $9 or so pricepoint, this dish is a true labor of love. To prep all of these vegetables, even with food processors, must take time. How novel of a dish! Put the yogurt salad on this pizza. You will thank me. And I only did it because I was watching someone else slather it on. There were at least 12 desserts on the menu. Meow. If we weren't so full of pita, hummus, tahini and fresh veggies, we certainly would love to taste a few of these. As well as the Turkish coffee, with an authentic ceramic and metal carafé presentation.

Pretty easy, breezy no-frills restaurant…read more We stopped by Cedars of Lebanon, because it was one of the few places that had outdoor seating and was not full. The restaurant has a small outdoor dining area with three four-seater tables, which was find for our two dogs. The experience overall was pretty low key, which necessarily is not a bad thing. Although there is waiter/waitress service, you will have to order your food at the cashier's counter. Actually, maybe that's only a thing if you are dining outside. The menu has a nice mix of Middle Eastern dishes. I went with a beef (or maybe it was lamb) kabob plate. The portions were fine and my meal was pretty good. It was not out of this world amazing, but it got the job done. I thought that the prices were pretty good for the area and the amount of food received. Although the food was fine, I do not think that I would go out of my way (e.g., driving more than 30 minutes) to dine here. Just be aware that the restaurant does not serve alcoholic beverages.
