MANY THANKS TO HASSAN! Yeaterday, I brought a friend from work to eat and she was so thankful and…read moreamazed how delish this food is.. AUTHENTIC food from start to finish. Lamb, hummus, chicken, rice. EveRuth ing homade and atmosphere; like being in Lebanon. thank you for the great food & wonderful stories. WE WILL BE BACK.

I was so fortunate to find this amazing restaurant, about a mile off exit 8 on I84…read more The owners are so friendly, kind, and ready to share thier culture. The two times I've been in, they've brought out samples of thier menu items to try. I've ordered various things on the menu: hummus, lebneh, falafel wraps, falafel platters, baked kibbe platters, the green bean side, etc. All have been amongst the best Lebanese food I've tried. I want to expand and try more things, like the chicken and beef kafta. If you have questions just ask. Certain platters come with different items. Some rice, some salad, etc. Thier pita is fresh and delicious, and comes in different sizes. They have a decent sized dining area for dine-in, and the take-out area is right as you walk in the side door. Here you will also find a grocery area with Lebanese essentials. The selection is sizable, and offers items you won't find in a regular grocery store. I stocked up on spices, and coffee. Prices are reasonable, and portions are generous. I will return every opportunity I get.

Definitely save room for dessert--the desserts were excellent, and finishing the meal with an espresso was the perfect way to end it. Great vibes for a nice evening with family and friends!

While visiting with friends in Norwalk, on a whim, we headed out to Esh for dinner. Despite not…read morehaving a reservation, the appeal was strong enough for us to take the chance that they might not be able to accommodate a hungry party of four stragglers on a Saturday evening. Luckily, a table had just opened up, and as a result, we feasted on the Moroccan cigars (very good), and the outrageously delicious flatbread (with three of the five mezze options). Our selected mezze options were the labneh, spicy feta, and the tzatziki. All were delicious, but the labneh stood out the most. I love labneh. The flatbread was served fresh out of the oven with a drizzle of oil and condiments. It was moist, aromatic, and steamy. Weeks later, I am still thinking about that damn bread. Yum. Since it was my first time, a friend and I shared the Nazareth lamb kebab potpie and the black angus ribeye shawarma. Both were tasty and the portions were substantial. Other friends had the Moroccan style halibut and the charcoal grilled ribeye skewer. The skewer was extra impressive because the skewer...was a SWORD. Everybody enjoyed their meal. With limited space in our bellies, we pushed forward by sharing the kunefe with pistachio. The thing about me is I can't say no to anything containing pistachio. I loved it just as much as the flatbread. 10/10 Overall, I was impressed. The flavors at Esh were enticing and the ambiance is trendy enough. A word to the wise: Esh serves what I imagine folks enjoy regularly in the Middle East for a fraction of the cost. When you visit, be prepared to spend $100+ PP. Fairfield isnt the Middle East, it's Connecticut.

First stop at Layla's in about a year. I immediately noticed that the Middle Eastern couple that…read moreusually runs the counter and kitchen are no longer there. Must be under new ownership or at least new cooks in the kitchen, judging by the change in quality and taste of the food. The people in the kitchen seemed to be primarily Spanish-speaking. Ordered the chicken kebab wrap and schwafel. Chicken was very dry and drowned in sauce that tasted more like mayo than tahini. They were kind enough to make me a new one after seeing that I was picking at the wrap and the cook explained that chicken breast in the kebab is usually dry. Funny - it wasn't this dry the many times I've had it before. The kebab also lacked the flavor and spice that it had previously. The wrap itself was also thin, dry and unpleasant. They used to use a flour wrap which I think they changed to something akin to cardboard. The scwafel wrap was also very dry. The seating area is small but the workers are very nice and keep it relatively clean. Prices have crept up, as they have everywhere. Given the decline in taste and quality and increase in price, I cannot justify going back to Layla's. The end of an era. I wish they would bring the previous owners/or at least teach the new crew how to make a proper kebab.

This place is absolutely amazing. The second you walk in, the employees make you feel welcome…read more We started with the hummus and mixed dips with warm pita bread--absolutely delicious. You can tell immediately that everything is fresh. For the main course, we had a platter that came with steak, chicken, and lamb chops, and everything was cooked to perfection. The flavors and seasoning were top-tier. For dessert, we had the warm baklava, which was absolutely delicious with every bite. If you have kids, don't worry--they also have an appetizer that's similar to a mozzarella stick that was absolutely delicious. I just can't remember the name of it! They play all types of music, and even though the space is big, the personal and intimate connection with the employees is what really made the experience special. The manager, Joselyn, was incredibly warm and welcoming. Our waitress, Vivian, was on top of every single request. Bravo! I only wish I had been able to meet the chef because I would personally shake their hand. The food was truly amazing. This is definitely a place where you could throw a birthday party, have a professional dinner, or simply enjoy a beautiful night out with your wife. It has all the qualities of a great restaurant, and I feel like NYC is starting to lose sight of that kind of hospitality. Eating here honestly reminded me of my travels to Egypt. The hospitality was A1. BRAVO! And I can't forget the bartender--he definitely knows what he's doing!

Not sure why this place is so popular. Sure the food is pretty good and the portions are generous,…read morebut I have some real qualms. First of all, why do they put the hostess stand in the street and make you wait outside to be brought inside? It creates a ridiculous bottleneck. Why not hire another hostess at night to help? Also, they position themselves as a moderately priced restaurant with most entrees $40 plus. I've never been out of there for less than $200 for two (with wine). Lastly, and very importantly, every time i've been there and asked for my leftovers to take home, the server will ultimately just throw a couple of boxes and a bag on table and walk away. Here's a message to every restaurant that charges you $40 for an entree: it is the server's job to wrap up your leftovers. This is not Applebees or Chiles. If you want a 20% tip on a $200 bill, do your job!
