I also love the attached grocery store! It's very fun to peruse while your food is being prepared. Should you find yourself here and are a garlic lover like me, I'd highly recommend getting their fries (they're always piping hot and delicious) and garlic sauce! This garlic sauce is packed with flavor and natural spice of garlic - not watered down! It's perfect.

Great food at a great price! I recommend this place for authentic Lebanese cuisine. My go to spot…read morewhen I want something fresh!

I also had a raspberry lemon drop with tequila that I enjoyed. We sat out on the covered patio since the group wanted hookah. The atmosphere was nice, although whatever was flying around out there ate me UP. I left with about 6 bites. My only little disappointment was the garlic sauce I ordered. I'm pretty sure I received the yogurt, cucumber & mint sauce instead, and I was really looking forward to that garlicky goodness lol. Overall though, I'd definitely go back. Next time I might just bring my own garlic sauce!

Never had any issues until recently. I have also heard from many others he's extremely rude and dismissive, if ppl are always complaining about him it confuses me as to why he's still there.....the owners clearly do not care about their customers. The other staff is more professional and attentive. Especially the new waiters that I hadn't met previously. The food isn't as good as it used to be, yet the prices keep going up. I would say this is decent hang out spot but nothing I rave about anymore. :(

All were excellent. The chicken (breast meet) and beef (tenderloin) were perfectly cooked with a bit of char. The Kafta was my favorite. It was juicy and flavorful. The accompanying rice and house Lebanese salad was also delicious. Good stuff!

I booked the event back in February and worked with Muhanad Rantawi, who made the entire planning process smooth and easy. On the day of the event, the two servers assigned to us were absolutely phenomenal. They helped with setup and were attentive in serving food and drinks to our guests throughout the event. The space itself was clean, cute, and cozy--perfect for an intimate gathering. The food was delicious as well. Although we didn't receive the rice we had ordered, they made up for it by providing extra pita. One challenge was that the AC wasn't working, but the staff handled it as best as they could by bringing out a large kitchen fan to help keep guests comfortable. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. I would definitely use them again for catering and would consider hosting another event there in the future.

Service was mediocre with us having to wait a long time to put our order in because the one server that was there was busy chatting with some woman who was making a togo order after we had been seated. The food was hit or miss with the highlights being the lentil soup and garlic dip.The moussaka seemed like it came premade from the store which was disappointing. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting and they put a toilet seat that is too small on the toilet so good luck if you need to sit down... Also I spent the entire night unable to sleep well with indigestion and my wife has had to run to the restroom all night and all morning. Overall I don't think we will return due to the grossness...

We started with a sampler platter of appetizers, and let me tell you: you could tell the dolmas ("grape leaves" on the menu) were made fresh that morning, the hummus was delicious, the salad was refreshing, and the kibbeh and falafel were tasty too. The lamb sandwich was so good; I don't usually like pickles, but I did in that sandwich! We went for a late lunch/early dinner (3pm ish) and it was very quiet inside. Our server was conversational and fun! Highly recommend: go here if you want to support an under-appreciated Mediterranean restaurant in the area.

As we were leaving there were more tables filling up. It was very cold in there, which I appreciate so much after coming in from the heat outside. The cashier/ waiter was the nicest man! He listed out all of the drink options and asked if we had any questions about the menu. I ordered the lunch portion of the combo chicken and gyro plate and my husband had the chicken shawarma sandwich. Both came with a decent size feta salad and a large hummus and unlimited pita for dine in. My plate also came with taziki sauce and rice. The combo plate was huge! I could have easily shared with my husband and ask have leftovers. The meats were super tender and really flavorful. The rice was nice and fluffy, too. I will definitely be back and try more dishes. If you haven't been here, please give it a try. The customer service was enough to get back to try more dishes, but the food further convinced me.

Looking for a new Mediterranean location I picked this one because one of my yelp friends gave it…read moregood reviews! They open at 10:30am, I showed up at 10:35am. Two workers were there, but unfortunately they said "the cooks aren't at work yet". They showed up about 5 minutes later as I was standing in the parking lot outside the door & they said to give them 10 minutes. I decided to run an errand & came back 30 minutes later. My order was a to-go. Upon my return, it took about 15 minutes for the food to be ready. I ordered the chicken curry lunch platter which comes with salad, rice & hummus. - Chicken curry (4/5)- quite unique curry sauce (kinda thick, can't place the spices) with tender chunks of chicken. - Salad (4.5/5) - Salad had a garlic dressing/sauce which elevated the basic lettuce salad & made it quite flavorful. - Hummus (3/5) - it was just ok for me. I've had some hummus at other Mediterranean places lately that are really fantastic so those have become my baseline. They have a garlic dip which I ordered as a side item, it's the most unique dip. It's whipped to a mashed potato consistency. It's good, different. When you mix the garlic dip into the hummus it upgrades the hummus flavor. - Lentil soup (3.5/5) I was expecting to have spoonfuls of actual whole lentils but this soup has the lentils puréed so it's just a little thicker than a broth soup with no visible lentils. The flavor is good, I can taste the black pepper (but it's not hot). I just prefer less of a puréed soup. Lots of pita bread was provided. The worker taking my order thanked me for coming back. Hopefully it's not a pattern for them not to be ready when the doors open.

It did get a little hot after a while, but there was a slight breeze. I'm closer to Abdallah's, which is also Lebanese, but I'm happy I tried it. Of all the times driving down Washington Ave. I haven't noticed it. Probably because Laurenzo's next door has a huge, bright and green neon sign. It was pretty empty on a Sunday night after watching a few NFL games nearby with friends. We shared the mixed grill platter for two to try a variety of their meatsof. It came with 2 sides, so we chose French fries and baba ganoush. I love potatoes and eggplant. We enjoyed both sides. The baba ganoush was great paired with the warm pita. I like that they give you a basket with a good amount of smaller ones rather than one large pita. The platter also came with a side of rice. It was standard, nothing fancy but good with the meats. We preferred the chicken and pork tenderloin over the kafta, which they gave 2 of. I liked the garlicky toum sauce they had and the roasted onions, tomatoes and jalapeño. We had ordered a couple cocktails - one with lavender and one with hibiscus. I enjoyed my hibiscus one with gin. Overall, I enjoyed the food and service. They also offer hookah. I would definitely come back here again, but next time we'll just order the pork tenderloin grill or chicken.

Their pita bread is so soft, probably the best pita bread in Houston! Really made the hummus even better.
