Excellent Restaurant and they would call it a fast food restaurant as their sister restaurant is…read moreacross the street and Grill is added to the name and much more expensive but I have to admit if we were in Geneva longer we would visit as they had some menu items that we really love. We ordered the mixed platter, one kibbie, and a small tabouli salad. The Kibbie was so good that we finished before we were able to take a picture...sorry. The Mixed Platter was great. It had chicken, lamb, kofta with a bit of labne, hummus, and a salad of lettuce, tomato and onion. The tabouli was beautiful and it also eaten almost completely before we got a picture. All of the food was some of the best Lebanese food we have had. Service was great. The atmosphere was hopping with lots of locals enjoying their Sunday lunch. No reservations taken. The place is large so if there is a wait it won't take long. Highly recommend.

Very disappointed, was looking forward to tasty food and ended up getting frozen fries and…read morevegetables, getting scammed over an invented dish with a made up price. They called it "the chef's specialty" yet it was simple white rice and beans for 50chf. When we asked why (because the dish and price were nowhere on the menu), they argued the rice was 10chf which is outrageous, but then took the bill and with no explanations brought it down to 40? Was pretty sketchy. I saw someone else review the same type of problem on google, I guess this was a normal occurrence for them. Definitely ruined the evening for us. Other than that some of the food was okay but nothing special. I don't recommend this place at all.

It also turned out to be a decent choice for some Middle Eastern food in Geneva. The food was fresh and reasonably tasty, and the selection of dishes on the menu was interesting, with quite a number of Asian specialties featured. Prices were typical for Switzerland, which means they were fairly high by US standards. Bottom line: The food was AOK, and the service was decent. Seems like this might be a fun spot when the place gets busy :-)

The single waiter, Ayman, gave us the menu and recited the appropriate options for all levels of "hungry." We ordered Fatoosh, falafel, kebbe, hummus and grilled halloumi for appetizers and mixed grill (kafka, tawouq and shawarma) for main dish (to share). I think it was called "the trio." Fatoush's was ok. Nothing out of the ordinary. So was the hummus. The falafel and kebbe were better; both are strong on taste. Lastly, the grilled halloumi was excellent. All portions were a bit small though. Good thing we weren't too hungry. As for our main dish, it also came with (yummy) garlic-lemon potatoes, muhammara (nut-paprika) and three sauces. The meats were a little over cooked but very good overall, especially the shawarma which was perhaps the best thing in the restaurant. We were both very satisfied and might come back tomorrow night to try something else!

Come early or during off-peak hours to snag a table outdoors. The interior is intricately decorated with old Persian tapestries, tiles, and other accents. The food - I was so surprised to have such good Persian food in the middle of Switzerland of all places. I started with the mint cucumber yogurt, which was refreshing on a hot day. For my main, I went with the barg kebab, which came with a piece of tadig (crunchy rice) which I loved. Nicely cooked kebab. The nice owner seeing that I was dining alone brought me a complimentary dessert - sholeh zard which was great, sweet, but not too sweet as it should be. I highly recommend you put this restaurant on your list to try when visiting Montreux.
