shysh lamb wrap

The shysh lamb wrap for lunch today was literally the best thing I've eaten in Cincinnati. I was worried it was going to be overpriced but for the amount and quality of food it was worth every penny. The lamb was perfect, the pickled vegetables were amazing. The cream sauce was on top of the wrap instead of inside which made it a bit messy to pick up but that's what napkins are for. The people working were very kind and actually waited to make my to-go online order until I arrived so it would be fresh since they weren't too busy. The desserts and dips looked incredible and I am already planning my next visit. Oakley kitchen itself was great -- looks like lots of good options to try in one place, plenty of seating upstairs .

Mashawi musakala

My friend and I split their mashawi musakala plate for Asian food week. The lamb was especially good. The $30 plate was suggested for 2 people, so while it was a little pricey, we both left extremely full with leftovers.

Amazing tabouli salad. Sucks they only cater. They do not have a walk in restaurant.

Best Falafel in Cincinnati! Hands down! Perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside.

My best friend wanted to take me to Phoenician Taverna for the longest time. She raves about this…read moreplace and been coming here for years. Finally she made reservations for Saturday evening (it is recommended because they get super busy). We got there and was greeted by the owner. BTW, was very down to earth. So their menu looked good (Lebanese food). There is so much to choose from and hard to decide. I especially loved their drink menu, especially wines. We ended up ordering: Appetizers: Baba ghannouge M'hammara Taverna falafel Dinner: Shawarma chicken Kebab mixed grill Drinks: Chateau kefraya, Les Bretches Almaza Pilsner My favorite from the appetizers is the eggplant and falafel! Super fresh and the bread that came with it was so good. Even the dipping sauce was amazing. My Shawarma chicken was super delish. You have to put the garlic butter on the rice! It gives it great flavor. My Mr enjoyed his meal as well. We definitely had to get a to go box because there was so much food. But we will look forward the next day to eat it. Overall, the service was great and I loved the experience. We can see ourselves coming back for more! I can see why my best friend loves it here! Highly recommend you try it.

A couple very close friends of ours recommended we try this spot with them and we're definitely…read moreglad we did. The food was fantastic, the service was awesome, and the atmosphere was very laid back. We even met the owner who was immensely friendly and welcoming. We went for dinner on a Saturday evening. For weekends, reservations are strongly recommended because they get busy FAST. They're only open for dinner hours too. Their menu is pretty big with a plethora of options to choose from including lots of appetizers, flatbreads, shawarmas, kebabs, falafel, and lots of tasty desserts. Their libations menu was very nice too, with numerous options for beer, wine, and spirits. (Try the Almaza for a crisp and tasty Pilsner) all at great prices. Here's what we had: Appetizers: Baba ghannouge M'hammara Taverna falafel Dinner: Shawarma chicken Kebab mixed grill Drinks: Chateau kefraya, Les Bretches red wine blend Almaza Pilsner Hoegaarden Belgian wit bier They also give you unlimited fresh pita bread with a delicious dipping sauce. Everything was incredible and cooked to perfection. We'll definitely be coming back here again. Unfortunately, this time, we had no room for dessert, but maybe next time.
