I ordered 1/2 beef, 1/2chicken shawarma plate with babaganoush, no veggies, extra sauce. The highlight of the meal for me is the babaganoush. Nothing extraordinary, but good. The beef is like a processed meat, similar to a donair/gyro. If i wanted this type of beef, i would have ordered a donair. Chicken was ok but doesnt taste like a typical shawarma chicken. I didnt get extra sauce, which is ok as i didnt pay extra for it. They didnt put any salad as requested, but put the radish in. Radish is a veggie. I dont think i'll order here again.

EPIC FAIL I used to love the original Rays food, but this…read morelocation has been getting worse & worse. Even when it opened the food was bland, but it keeps going downhill. The food is now completely lacking in distinctive Lebanese flavours, like they've either cut corners everywhere or the owner (nope, not a chef) has the palette of a camel. . I ordered chicken Shwarma, and my friend had chicken kebab. The meat was so dry it was hard - he LITERALLY couldn't get his teeth through it. My chicken was only a bit better - chewable, but bland and grossly overcooked. I took the kebab back to my terrier. Even he had to chew it hard on his back teeth, then he coughed and looked for water. TRUE STORY! The rice & lentils were mostly just rice, with no hint of the signature browned onions. It was served with some other pretty tasteless yellowish rice, so half my plate ended up being boring rice. The almost grey cabbage was too soft and had no added flavour. The potatoes had become soggy victims of the steam table and lost whatever browned taste they might ever have had. The hummus was wet and over processed. It lacked both taste & texture, and neither it nor the garlic sauce seemed to have ever met garlic. There seemed to be no lemon in ANY of it. Even the Tabouleh just tasted like soggy old parsley. My food was $20, and his was $22. We didn't buy the Baklava. The pastry looked stale, and it there wasn't enough honey (or syrup) to keep it tender or hold it all together. Not sure about the nuts, either. They looked pale the (ahem) peanuts-like. Baklava just shouldn't be made like that. I will never go back and was sad for my friend's failed introduction to Lebanese food. May you rest in peace, old Mrs Ray. I'm so sorry your recipes are also as tasteless as the grave.

It looked like a shitty cheap wedding set up. Like dirt cheap wedding. No ambiance at all. So we got up and left to go elsewhere. 2 people stayed as they were eating but we paid and were long gone before they remove the bad food from the table . This is seriously untrained garbage service. We even waited 15 minutes to be sat without a single hello. They saw us but did not care. Horrific service!

Al-Arz Pita Bakery. I went in here intrigued. I thought I was going into this great bakery. I am…read morenot sure if the sign does not go with the shop or what was up. I went in walked around, saw a rack outside the door with some huge pita bread. Other than that, it has one row down the middle with canned goods. A freezer full of samosa, shrimp, different meats ( not sure what I was looking at). Overall, I walked around the whole store, and no moved. No one asked me if I needed help, nada. I was amazed. So I bought nothing.

Al-Arz Pita Bakery is a neat little find tucked in between Issa's Saj House and the Ben's Bakery…read moreOutlet. If you ever need an ingredient from the Middle East, Al-Arz is your go-to destination. Entering the store, immediately on your right are stacks of fresh bagged pitas in all sizes. These are the same pitas they provide to local grocery stores, except that since you're going directly to the producer you're getting a great deal on the price. Freshness is, of course, also an issue - I don't think I'd ever actually had fresh pitas before I tried the ones here. Throughout the rest of the store are all kinds of interesting finds, from good quality olive oils and tahini to olives and sesame candies. Anything you could want, you'll find here. Best to take cash, though, because there's a minimum limit to use the debit machine.

I ended up ordering the curry seafood chowder & 10/10 it was so delicious and unique, my partner also said the same! He wished he ordered this meal. My partner ordered the lobster roll, which was really good but the brioche wasn't as thin & fluffy as I've previously experienced, having too much bread to lobster ratio. The fries were good. He liked them but they were just a happy medium to me. Cassie was our server. She was super sweet, bubbly & very patient with how I order wine. Haha. Also, the interior is very cute!

The establishment looks unfinished and there is no cohesive atmosphere. The service was mediocre as my husband waited 20 minutes for a beer and sauce even though they weren't busy. The food is horribly overpriced for the quality. I ordered the vegan penne and it was $22 for one scoop of pasta! I'm not joking. I was told I was getting a side salad and was charged $14 for lettuce and bread bits soaked in oil. Drive by this one.

My husband and I recently went here for dinner, and overall, it was a solid experience--nothing…read moreoutstanding, but decent enough for a casual meal. We'd give it about 4 stars. We started with the garlic fingers as an appetizer, which were tasty and hit the spot. For drinks, we kept it simple with water, Pepsi, and iced tea--no complaints there. Service was efficient; our food arrived in a reasonable time without any delays. My husband went for the daily special: ribs, shrimp, potatoes, and coleslaw. The ribs were the standout--tender and flavorful. The potatoes were good too, though the gravy was pretty bland and could use more seasoning. Unfortunately, the shrimp fell flat; they were a bit rubbery and lacked any real taste. I opted for the pan-fried haddock, which was well-cooked and enjoyable. The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained, which we appreciated. For dessert, we shared the peanut butter chocolate mousse. It was good overall--rich and chocolatey--but it didn't really deliver on the peanut butter flavor, which was disappointing since that's what drew us to it. The waitress was very nice and did a great job. All in all, it's a reliable spot with some hits and misses. We'd probably return if we're in the area, but we'd skip the shrimp next time!
