Soujak wrap
Indiasky B.

This is my third visit to Cedars. This time around we ordered, spinach pies, chicken gyro, fatoush salad, lamb dinner, falafel appetizer and soujak wrap. The service was attentive per usual. It still looks and smells clean. Great lunch place! All was delicious but the fatoush salad lacked some ingredients. I've had this salad in Malvern, PA and theirs is so amazing! The falafel was too mushy. I'm used to it having more of a denser grainy chickpea consistency and flavor. While it still has good flavor it just wasn't what I'm accustomed to have in a falafel. Everything else was delicious.

Dessert was very good! A crispy pancake filled with cream and dusted with pistachios, delicious! The owner made it feel like home Xavier, our waiter very attentive.

A comfy Lebanese restaurant with cute arab decorations and pillows at the seating. They have belly dancers perform every Friday evening. The belly dancer we saw was very talented, she even danced with fire. Food wise, I've had the Shish Tawook (chicken) twice. It was consistent, and I liked that the rice has vermicelli in it. The chicken was flavorful and well seasoned, alrhough slightly on the dry side. The garlic spread tied the dish together very well. The labne was simple and a good starter.

My goodness...  I have nothing but compliments for this restaurant. The ambience is homey. You're definitely going to feel welcomed as the guests. Maxine and her mother are extremely kind and hospitable. And no matter the occasion (family dinner, date, special occasion, or casual meal), you'll feel like you're in the right place. The food is AMAZING!. Everything was made to perfection, super juicy and delicious! The falafel was extremely delicious and they could be a meal by themselves...almost meaty. They are best that I've had! And I have tasted them at various places. The Kefta Kebab...made to order. Extremely juicy and flavorful, served with rice and grilled vegetables. The salad was delicious. For the desert kataif... flaky crust, cream filled, pistachios, and sweet syrup poured over it And do NOT forget to order some Lebanese coffee to wrap it up... it compliments the meal experience. What makes the overall experience so outstanding, is the staff! They make eye contact with you, smile, and make sure your needs are met in a timely manner. The restrooms are clean. Enjoy!

Very good food selection. Small place so make your reservations!! It is well worth it. Shush kabob was gray, keffa kabob was great too. Definitely try the lentil soup!!!!!!

The family harasses me and my children online as you can see.

Just made a reservation for 11 people at this restaurant and was yelled at by this disgraceful owner for bringing chicken nuggets for my daughter who does not eat anything on the menu! Classy! The best part about it, is that we specifically spoke to the restaurant while making the reservation about brining chicken for our daughter. When we got there however, we were rudely told that we couldn't come in here with that. When we reminded them about the conversation, the female manager told me that only her and the owner answer the phones and they did not say this. But they most certainly did. I heard the owner in the back yelling at the manager 'absolutely not...it's a liability', and saying this over and over again. That doesn't even make any sense. We tried talking to them about it, but the manager just kept saying that they are the only two to answer the phone. Okay, so I guess we were making up this conversation?!?! I asked the manager no less than 6 times if I could speak with the owner and was ignored. I went back to speak to the owner and was immediately yelled out and he was screaming at me to leave. We drove 45 minutes out of our way, made reservations for this place, and again, specifically spoke with them about the chicken we were bringing for the kids. The owner was completely disrespectful to me and my family and kicked us out. Really disgusting behavior by this already lowly rated restaurant. Low class. Do not eat here!

Cedar's must be your go to spot, if you are looking for Lebanese food in Camp Hill/Mechanicsburg/Harrisburg. They are now under a new management per the banner outside. This definitely shows, as I felt the service was slow. There was only one person who was taking the orders and serving, which resulted in slow service overall. Being vegetarian, we also looked forward to having Falafels, which they were unfortunately out of by the time we went for dinner at 7 pm. Ended up having some appetizers (mezas) and dessert. The food was alright, definitely missed the pre-pandemic flavor. Ambience is pretty much the same, no changes there. They still serve hookahs if you are interested.

Amazing this place stays in business. Food only ok. Service with a bit of a 'whatever' attitude. Usually 9/10 empty.

I'm with a co-worker and we have tickets to see Yankees vs Orioles. Before the game I want to grab…read moresomething and a stadium hot dog isn't going to work for me. I start naming a few seafood places but she's not into any of my suggestions. I said I have a great Lebanese spot and we can park in front? Sold! We make our way to Lebanese Taverna. I thought I was being cool with the restaurant suggestion but then tells me her dad is Lebanese? We're greeted by the hostess and shown to a booth. The restaurant beautifully decorated and it's deceiving from the outside. Lebanese Taverna is a huge restaurant with plenty of seating. We're given menus and I sit back and let my coworker order all of the sharable items. We started with Kibbeh: stuffed beef and lamb fritters as well as beef and lamb Shawarma Rolls. I'm getting a thumbs up from my coworker except she said her mom makes both dishes better. Who am I to argue? Mom's cooking is always better! Great spot to dine at the Baltimore harbor.

I'm kinda on the fence between 2 and 3 stars. So consider this a 2.5 review…read more Food was decent, not great - not bad. Atmosphere was corporate, touristy, not at all interesting. Service was awful. Atrocious. Friendly female waiter, but she was curt, disinterested, unengaging, and seldom came around. For example - showed up to greet us shortly after seating - good - but then disappeared for some 20-25 minutes, then came back and actually said: "Sorry, chatty customer". :eyeroll: Food was prepared OK, nothing special, some stuff overcooked some looked to be pre-prepared. So really NOT worth the money. So I guess, add "overpriced" to my list of complaints. I wanted to like this place! They didn't do themselves any favors in that regard. I'll pass from now on. Oh, almost forgot, the table got a few glasses of different Lebanese wines. I will say, if this is representative of them, hard pass.
