This food was truly identical to what you would find abroad. Fresh, delicious, and located in the heart of historic Mexico City. I didn't see any tourists which was pretty cool. I definitely recommend.

We started with the Jarra de Café Arabe which was made just right. It reminded me of Lebanon and gave me that midday caffeine kick I needed. The Pan con Queso y Zaatar was surprisingly not authentic. It was essentially just cheese with dry zaatar on the side. I was expecting it to be baked with half Cheese and half Zaatar. They essentially gave us the zaatar to sprinkle on our own. The Pastel de Dátil was rich, naturally sweet from the dates, and a bit dense. I picked up on other spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom which gave it some warmth while the crust was more crunchy and nutty. Good try, overall!

The food was fabulous, They accepted our last-minute reservation for a 6:30 PM dinner night with…read morethe website indicating 7PM final reservation but when we walked in the door, they told us that we had to be out by 7 PM and then stood over us waiting for our departure while they were chatting with regulars I'm here I think you're right it's a very fair. No complaints about the food great.

This Lebanese restaurant purports to offer high-end food at a high-end price. I recommend the…read moresampler dish as a good representation of what this restaurant serves. Service was prompt and friendly at the beginning. I specifically enjoyed the opportunity to observe the arrival of elite Mexican society at this restaurant. I liked that the restrooms were very clean. I recommend visiting this restaurant at dinner time to enjoy the theater of being around elite Mexican society. The warm grape leaves and dips were a special treat. I liked the kabobs because the meat was very tender. If these two very minor issues can be promptly addressed, I think this restaurant has the potential to return to its four-star or possibly climb to a five-star rating. I think hygiene of the restaurant can continue to be enhanced with more integrated pest management in the form of glue-based traps as a small black insect crawled across our table--no surprise as I pointed this out to the staff. Also service can be enhanced toward the end, specifically, two of the left-over dishes we requested for take-out were not included when we got home. Since the price was world-class, I did feel obligated to calibrate this restaurant to a three-star rating to take these issues into account as one expects details like these to be handled. Overall, the food is world-class, ambiance can be further enhanced, opening service is world-class, end-service can also be further enhanced.
