I'm mixed... the portions were great, the price was higher than DC through DoorDash or UberEats.

I also wished they gave you 1 or 2 more since you're paying close to $30. I also tried the lamb shank and the fish (pompano). Both were out of this world!!! I also tried the mantoo. I believe they were dumplings that were filled with meat and lentils. These were really feeling. I thought these were ok. The only con about this was the wait for the food. It took about at least 30-45 minutes for the food to come out but it was well worth it.

The atmosphere had a relaxed elegance without feeling fancy, and after coming straight from a loud reception, the calm setting with gentle music was exactly what we needed. My colleague and I both ordered the chicken kebab dinner, and it was exceptional. The food was flavorful and tasty, the chicken was moist and deliciously seasoned, and the steamed vegetables were cooked perfectly without being mushy. We also enjoyed the Turkish tea after dinner, which was recommended to help with digestion. It was a strong black tea served in the cutest little glass cup with a handle, and we finished every drop. The staff was attentive, kind, and welcoming without being intrusive. Overall, it was a very relaxing and enjoyable dining experience, and I'd gladly return.

Finally she made reservations for Saturday evening (it is recommended because they get super busy). We got there and was greeted by the owner. BTW, was very down to earth. So their menu looked good (Lebanese food). There is so much to choose from and hard to decide. I especially loved their drink menu, especially wines. We ended up ordering: Appetizers: Baba ghannouge M'hammara Taverna falafel Dinner: Shawarma chicken Kebab mixed grill Drinks: Chateau kefraya, Les Bretches Almaza Pilsner My favorite from the appetizers is the eggplant and falafel! Super fresh and the bread that came with it was so good. Even the dipping sauce was amazing. My Shawarma chicken was super delish. You have to put the garlic butter on the rice! It gives it great flavor. My Mr enjoyed his meal as well. We definitely had to get a to go box because there was so much food. But we will look forward the next day to eat it. Overall, the service was great and I loved the experience. We can see ourselves coming back for more! I can see why my best friend loves it here! Highly recommend you try it.

The food was fantastic, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere was very laid back. We even met the owner who was immensely friendly and welcoming. We went for dinner on a Saturday evening. For weekends, reservations are strongly recommended because they get busy FAST. They're only open for dinner hours too. Their menu is pretty big with a plethora of options to choose from including lots of appetizers, flatbreads, shawarmas, kebabs, falafel, and lots of tasty desserts. Their libations menu was very nice too, with numerous options for beer, wine, and spirits. (Try the Almaza for a crisp and tasty Pilsner) all at great prices. Here's what we had: Appetizers: Baba ghannouge M'hammara Taverna falafel Dinner: Shawarma chicken Kebab mixed grill Drinks: Chateau kefraya, Les Bretches red wine blend Almaza Pilsner Hoegaarden Belgian wit bier They also give you unlimited fresh pita bread with a delicious dipping sauce. Everything was incredible and cooked to perfection. We'll definitely be coming back here again. Unfortunately, this time, we had no room for dessert, but maybe next time.

Well on this day we stopped in for a quick burger and fries. Well as you can see in my picture we opted for the onion rings and wow am I glad we went this route. We got the big easy. We shared the burger and onion rings and it was the perfect amount food for the two of us. Not only was the food super fresh to me it tasted like an upscale Big Mac with the best onion rings. I would gladly come back here and get another burger. And since it is just around the corner from the bird store and a grocery store I go to weekly, I guess I will be back. I would much rather spend a little extra on a good burger than get something that just doesn't even taste good at a chain of M's.

We had tried Wayback in Louisville and liked it. We decided to pick up lunch for take-out when we…read moresaw this one to feed our daughter and son-in-law whom we were visiting. To the point, the food was ok, no better than Sonic my burger tasted just like a double bacon cheeseburger from Sonic. If you had given it to me and told me it was from Sonic I would not have known the difference. Here lies the issue, the Wayback burger costs about twice what SOnic charges. This applies to all their food, everything was way overpriced for the quality. More outrageous, my soda (we all know it costs them pennies to serve) but they charged me $4.59 for a soft drink! Look at my receipt, four burgers, one soda and one milkshake, one order of fries, and one order of Tator tots. At Sonic this would have been about $22 bucks. At the far better Five Guys, it would have been about $40 which is still expensive but better quality than SOnic and we all know Five Guys gives you a boatload of fries. Our order was over $72 dollars! $72.70 in fact! Don't tell me about inflation or higher wages, it simply does not cost that much to make a cheap burger with paper-thin bacon. That may be why the place was empty at 1 in the afternoon when every other burger joint on the planet would be packed. Honestly, if they were amazing burgers that were huge with a cornucopia of fries maybe, but for most people $72 is not a reasonable lunch price for four people.

It was definitely worth the extra few minutes of wait. The food is all flavorful and uses unique ingredients, like a pomegranate molasses drizzle, to make it even better.

Consider the extra items too like their freshly squeezed orange juice or homemade cookies.

Looks to be a quick serve setup, where you order and pay at the counter and they deliver to your table. I saw a few people dining in. Nice and clean inside with simple and soothing decor. Got two gyros and an order of stuffed grape leaves to go. The gyros were absolutely enormous where you need a fork to eat at least half the meat before you could even think about holding it. Nice and fresh and very tasty, though I was expecting the meat to be much more thinly sliced, and it was a wee bit short on the Tzatziki. Note to self: order extra on the side. The grape leaves were perfect, lemony and refreshing with a nice slightly crisp bite to reveal the tender filling. Beautifully wrapped too so nothing spilled out. I called my order in. I noticed the website must be directly powered by a third party delivery system as it had inflated prices, even if you choose the pickup option. So pick up the phone and call if you want to pay the regular menu prices. The gentleman who took my order and waited on me was very polite and cheerful. I'll be back!
