    Beef Plate
    Lee M.

    Located in a business complex with plenty of parking. Can get busy, depending on the time. The restaurant was clean and it wasn't busy during my visit. The food was okay... the beef was on the dry side. The garlic and the hummus were good. The salad was standard and the pita was a little hard. 3.5

    Beef/lamb platter with rice
    Eric C.

    Ordered the beef/lamb rice platter. Pros: White sauce Salad Cons: Meat portions Meat is on the drier side Highlight of the dish is the sauce which is outstanding conpared to all other shwarma places. The salad is well dressed and the rice was plentiful. On the otherhand, the meat portions compared to other shwarma place was lacking. In addition, while it was fine for me, the meat can be a bit too dry for other palletes. For 19.99 it was on the pricier side, but otherwise good.

    My go to spot is Raffi's in Glendale but whilst I'm stuck across the border the closest decent place was Zeitoon in N.Van and for take out we usually get Daddy's Grill in Richmond. I was craving koobideh beef skewer and tabouli and then I had a promo on uber eats and decided to give this place a try. I'm so happy we did!! Portions and price are so cheap, also include a can of soda and either rice or fries. Even walked out and the girl chased after saying she forgot give us fresh fries. You won't be disappointed and quick and great portions and most important, low price and clean!

    Chicken Shawarma ($13.99)

    Over a number of visits, the customer service has been a hit or miss. This visit was another miss. We stood there waiting to be seated and ended up seating ourselves. The only server asks if we have been helped when there were two tables of customers (table of 2 and table of 4). She was on autopilot and could not keep track of the customers. She dropped off the menus. Then she preceded to sit at the corner table by the cash register and eat her dinner and look down the whole time....My date got up and ordered the food himself as we did not want to waste our time here watching her eat. I know servers deserve their breaks, but why would she just not say anything after dropping the menu that she was going on break. Plus, just sitting across from me eating her dinner at 7:30pm and why is there no one else covering the floor. We ordered the falafel veggie plate and chicken shawarma. There were at least 3 guys I can see working behind the cash register. They should have had one guy go cover the floor while the server is eating her food. The falafel plate was dropped off after a 15 minute wait. The chicken shawarma plate was dropped off at the wrong table. One of the guys came back out to the floor, took the plate from that table and dropped it back on my table. The food tasted good. I really do like the hummus, and the garlic sauce. The falafel was pipping hot and tasty. The stuffed grape leaf was made of nicely seasoned rice wrapped with a grape leaf. The quality of the food has been consistent over the visits. I just wished the service was also consistently good.

    I visited this Lebanese restaurant for the first time, mainly because I wanted to find a place that…read moreserves halal meat for a friend. We went fairly late and found out that their last call was at 8:30 PM--something to keep in mind if you're planning a visit. Overall, I enjoyed the food profile, though the service could definitely be improved. It was challenging to get the server's attention, and some cutlery was missing until we asked for it. My friend and I shared the Mezza Sampler - Hot ($32), which included 2 falafel, 2 kibbeh, cauliflower, and halloumi fries. Each dish was quite good, but the highlight for me was definitely the fried cauliflower. It was served with tahini, tzatziki, and pita bread. I'd recommend this more for sharing, as it can get a bit greasy. Our other friends ordered the Lentil Soup (small - $5), served with bread crisps, and the Batata Narra ($10), which are potatoes in a tomato chilli sauce. They said both dishes were good, though the Batata Narra wasn't spicy at all.

Loved the hummus and tabbouleh -- both packed with flavor and that bright, tangy freshness you want. The mixed grill was huge, definitely enough to share. Service was friendly and quick, and they were happy to adjust things to our preferences. Honestly, this might be one of the best Lebanese/Middle Eastern places in B.C. The menu focuses on real, sit-down dishes instead of the usual street food, which is a nice change. Clean, comfortable space -- overall a great find if you're craving authentic Lebanese

My wife and I came here for our anniversary dinner and we were delighted. We ordered the Chefs Special Sampler for 2 - basically giving us a sampler of everything on the menu for $90 per person. We were really really full and couldn't finish it all. Highlights: - Chickpea Fetteh: warm delightful mixture of ground meat, chickpea sauce, with soaked pita at the bottom and crispy stuff in it. It just explodes with flavour and texture. - dip sampler: the hummus and eggplant mutabbah were really good but that pocket pita bread was out of this world good. Even the tabbouleh was good and my wife normally hates that. - the lamb tartare was AMAZING. It was kneaded so soft that it was practically a paste. When you combine it with the nuts and red spicy sauce and eat it with bread the combo is winning. - grilled Kibbeh and regular kibbeh - both really delightful - the grilled meat plate was great. In particular the chicken with the garlic tahini was really flavourful. The kabob mushrooms and peppers on top of smoked baba ganoush was soo good. Loved the smoke flavour. They finished by serving us baklava sampler which was all really good. From start to finish this is an experience for the ages.

    I'm a big fan of Lebanese food. We often have it for lunch. Because Yasma is only open for dinner,…read morewe lived here for a couple of years before we got around to trying it. But I'm sure glad we did. The flavors here are at a complexity level above any Lebanese food that I've had elsewhere. Even the common dishes, such as hummus, baba ghanoush, and tabbouleh, all contain ingredients and spices that make them stand out and add a terrific level of complexity. For example, the tabbouleh includes not just interesting seasonings but also pomegranate seeds. It was not the only dish that was served with the addition of pomegranate. There was also a delightfully spicy sauce that seemed to be comprised of both pomegranate and harissa. The chef's tasting menu is a terrific way to sample most of the dishes on the menu. Our favorites turned out to be most of the cold course dishes that were served in the first of three rounds. This included: - Hummus - Baba ghanoush - Tabbouleh - A spice tray with a selection of olives As you would expect from a high-end Lebanese restaurant, the pitas are perfectly puffed and delicate. The hot dishes included lamb and chicken and were served on the traditional garlic sauce. The tasting menu concluded with an assortment of bite-sized pieces of baklava. If there was one shortcoming, it was the wine list. The white wines seemed to be of a singular note, although they were offered from four different countries. Unfortunately, they were out of the French Chardonnay, so I might be inclined to bring my own bottle the next time, assuming they have a corkage fee.
