I have mixed feelings about our visit. Ambiance was interesting. We all ordered the "feast" (which…read moreI think is the better value). Service was friendly though a bit slow for the place being empty on a Wednesday night. I thought the food was pretty good but the less-adventurous palates in my party did not appreciate some of the spicing or presentation of some of it. I liked the pacing of our courses and the tea and small deserts on offer. We found the price of our food a bit high but that was less of a concern than the disappointment of part of our group.

I heard so much about this place & finally got to try it…read more There is no dine in, so you have to do take out only. The story was that if you don't pay attention to the service, you will be satisfied. The owner is somewhat known to be an equivalent of Seinfeld soup nazi. When I ordered the food, he was kinda curt, but not rude. I was quite anxious to pick up the food & meet him in person. He turned out to be quite polite to my surprise!! Now I was just dying to get home & dig into the food. We ordered 3 main dishes all of which came with rice. A minced skewer kabob, a steak skewer kabob, and a chicken skewer kabob. The quality of the food was amazing despite the fact that it was made at least 45min before (it had taken us 30 min to drive back home) I could only imagine how this meal would have been if there was an opportunity to it as soon as the chef had finished cooking it. A definite must try for Persian food lovers.

I receive 1.5 potato pieces, that's right, I did not eat any of them. Look at the picture, that's how it came. Basically I got a spoonful of hummus, some plain white rice, sprinkling of ice berg lettuce, 3 sad slices of tomato, onion, pickles, 1.5 potato pieces and 3 microwaved falafels for $11.50. What a rip off and a sad excuse for Lebanese food. I will not be giving them a second chance.

They also use the dreadful thin wood knives and forks. The fork would not even pierce a pepper. I had to shovel the salad into my mouth. I deliberately did not bring this up until after I paid so they would not accuse of wanting a free meal, nor did I after I paid. What I got was no response at all when I told them that the beef in the kebab was so overcooked that it was also impossible to chew. Although I did not tell them this, it was dry like beef flavoured sawdust held together with glue. The food was slopped into the container when it was brought to my table. They were not the least bit interested in what I had to say. Talk about rude. AVOID THIS ESTABLISHMENT LIKE THE PLAGUE. DREADFUL MIDDLE EASTERN FOOD. On my mother's side, I have Middle Eastern heritage and know what good Arab food is.

I felt somewhat underdressed because the decor is very classy and I hadn't showered in like 4 days, (dirty hippie look) but the bartender was welcoming. We got a glass of red and soon after (when I regained my bearings) I was delighted to discover this was a hookah bar! I ordered a Double Apple (shisha, like tobacco but sweeter, and comes in pucks, plus you smoke it from a 3' tall bong so it's extra smooth) My pal Rob doesn't smoke but he loved the trio of Mediterranean-style dips, baba gounosh, hummus, and ... I forget the other but they're all good and fairly nutritious. There were really good-looking meals being served so next time I go I must get some... this visit I was in it for the smoking. The atmosphere was really fuckin cool. Check Trio out if you like chilling, hookah smoking, drinking, and the cultural aspects therein. The food i had was good too. Stay up everybody!

Apologies for the length but wanted to articulate the experience and give a full review/explanation…read morefor my 1 star. Stopped in here as we were looking for place to grab a coffee and bite to eat before my mom's doctor appointment nearby (she lives 2 hours out of city so we had a little over an hour until her appointment) and will likely never return. We arrived around 12:30 pm only to be informed that the kitchen did not open until 2 pm but we could get some appetizers (except we were never given a menu for appetizers, only beverages and there was a dessert menu on the table next to us, so we didn't order food). Our group of four ordered 3 coffees and one pop. Coffees were $3.99+tax each for just a small cup of regular coffee (nothing fancy like lattes or the $6.99 coffee that was also on the menu). For comparison I paid $2.19 for a coffee twice the size at Tim Hortons that morning. I also asked for a glass of water (which I had to remind waitress about when she brought our drinks) and she brought out water for each of us which was very warm and the glasses were not particularly clean. The decor of the place was quite nice and we all liked the look and feel but the bathroom sink tap was broken making it difficult to wash hands after using the washroom. The waitress was very polite and friendly though not very attentive or even accessible as she seemed to be in the back for quite some time so when we wanted a refill on coffee we had to wait for her to appear behind the bar and then had to go up to ask her. I ordered 1 refill on my coffee and my mom & her friend ended up having 2 refills each (so 2 cups for me and 3 cups of coffee each for them so less than a whole pot of coffee which costs pennies to make). We were shocked when we were paying the bill which totalled $45 (for a couple of small cups of coffee and 1 pop!). Apparently $3.99 gets you one small cup of coffee and if you want more its another full charge for each cup. We were never told this (nor was it indicated in the menu). To be clear it was NOT busy (there was only 1 other customer in the entire place so it was not a surcharge for only ordering coffee during busy time which I would have understood) and it was clear we had never been there before (we had to ask where bathroom was, and about parking and my mom inquired about hookah as the other customer was puffing away on one etc.).. I used to waitress before and since it is not standard practice to charge full price for each cup of coffee I would have mentioned it to a customer so they were aware. We had no idea until it came time to pay. 1. If your kitchen isn't open until 2pm that should be indicated in your ads/listings (they only said they opened at 10am I believe when we searched for place nearby). 2. If you are going to charge that kind of price for a very small cup of basic coffee I shouldn't have to wait for the staff to appear and then have to get up and come to you to ask for it (and it should be indicated that refills are full charge rather than surprising the person with an exorbitant bill at the end). 3. For those kinds of prices I'd expect a fully functioning place, not dealing with a broken down tap barely attached to the bathroom sink as well as what appeared to be a leaking toilet (very obvious crusty chemical looking stain around the toilet in the stall beside me). Over all it was the most expensive and most disappointing "going for a coffee" experience any of us had ever had. I hate to say it be we probably should have just gone and grabbed some coffees from the gas station down the street.
