Houda's Kitchen - Warm, elegant interior, quite spacious so doesn't feel crowded.

My husband grew up in Detroit, Michigan, USA which has The largest Middle Eastern population,…read morespecifically Lebanese, outside of the Middle East. It was with him that I went to lunch a few days ago. We arrived just after noon on a Saturday and we're surprised to be the only patrons! We are seated, quickly given menus, water, and allowed adequate time to review the menu. Our server was the son of the proprietor and he was such a delight! You could tell how proud he is of his Lebanese heritage and regaled up with a few stories of Houda, his grandmother and the restaurant's namesake. In addition he helped guide some of our dining choices and we were not disappointed! Houda's serves up tasty, flavourful, and generous portions. We had so much food left over that we had another meal the next day!

Amazingly authentic Lebanese food, friendly staff and really nice restaurant. The only thing that…read morelet the place down was the speed of the service... The food wasn't too warm when it arrived at our table... Was really yummy though. The zaartar bread was to die for and the lahm (lamb on a stick) was yummmmm! Would have been a 5/5 if the food was hot! Great food tho would come back (hopefully next time the food comes out hot!) The atmosphere was nice too, they had Lebanese music playing in the background and it seemed like an environment that would be child friendly. Nice and quiet too so you can have a conversation without having to yell.

I am not sure how Lawash Bakery & Kebab Shop flew under my radar for so long. I have driven past it…read moretoo many times to count. But, I guess the outside of the store never really tickled my fancy. It is definitely not flash looking inside or out. There are no fancy tables, crockery or cultery. This is just good food served straight up! Lawash Bakery is serving up some really decent Lebanese food. If you love grilled meats, bread and flavour, well you have come to the right place. There are a few vego items to choose from, but I think this is more of a meat eating destination. There are a lot of options for you to choose from. Many different styles of grill, bread and accompaniments. You can order large platters for the table to share as well. I went for the mixed grill, that way I get to try a couple of different styles. It was great! Full of flavour, spices, slightly salty and smoky. Everything you want in a kebab. It was served on some really fresh pita and a side of lettuce, tomato and onion. That way you can wrap it up if you like. There was a whole lot of garlic in that meat and sauce too. So, maybe bring some mints to freshen up afterwards. I really liked the service and value here. I might have liked a few choices of sauces to go with my meat. But, it was cooked well and tasted brilliant. This is the type of place you want to go to fill up before a night on the town. Note, if you need to go to the loo, the bathroom around the back of the shop. But, be warned, it is really ewwww...

The portions are small for the prices the upside is they open late while most places in the area are closed which is a bonus if your looking for something local. The menu is numbered in the type of dishes you require I selected number 1 on the menu four pieces of chicken skewers with nan bread and very little salad. If your not fussed trying something different give it a go for a late night feed.

Now boys and girls, who knew "panacea" means to "cure all"?…read moreThat is the perfect description for the warming, hearty spanish inspired meals served up from a daily changing specials menu and regular pizza and tapas fare here. Sit amongst birds nest lighting, green walls and in uncomfortable plastic chairs while you watch a chaotic open kitchen steam, clang and heat up inside or take a leisurely look down your nose at passers by as you sip your red wine and nibble tapas under big white umbrellas in the summer breeze outside. Crispy BBQ quail, simple warmed olives and baked gnocchi are all you really need to look at but there is a very long menu for those who like to feel they have choice. Note thought that this is one of those places where you need to probably allow sharing plate minimum per person though if you want to be full at the end of the night. Very strong Moroccan, Spanish and meat based flavours engulf most dishes here and you will get rich flavours like goats cheese, marinated herbs and plenty of salt coming through with most dishes - but it is worth it. Service is hilariously attentive - I have had 2 people serving my table all 3 times I have been to date. And waitered service like that is normally a lot more expensive in Adelaide now-days. It really makes you feel special and enhances the experience of "being amongst it" where you are literally next to the open kitchen if you are in the main area. If you don't fancy flashing the AMEX card then dine here with the suits and ties or stockings and slippers (very few of those) for lunch and dinner from 12-6pm Monday to Thursday for half price pizzas and jugs of sangria - bargain!

I visited here on Friday night for a much needed after work drink with a friend and I was…read morepleasantly surprised. I hadn't been to Panacea in years and was unsure what to expect. Not only did we receive 25% off our bill using the check in feature on the Yelp app, but the red sangria was absolutely delicious. No cheap nasty wine was used and had an authentic Spanish taste. We ordered the pate entree to share and we're impressed at the very generous serving. The flavour was perfect and just enough to keep us going until our later Dinner. The service was good. However when we arrived we were the only ones there. Although friendly, it wasn't above and beyond. It would be good to see how they fare when the restaurant was a little busier. Will definitely return to try the full menu and for more sangria. If you have not already been, now's the time - especially with the current Yelp offer which will make that sangria extra sweet and soul soothing.

Nothing on the menu was as it used to be. The standard classic dishes were a major disappointment,they were not nearly as delicious or tasty as they were. There were 3 dishes that we used to enjoy that were nothing like they used to be. Service was ok but this restaurant is absolutely relying on its past stellar reputation. We were so excited for our evening but sadly we were really disappointed and it kind really ruined my first night reunion.

OMG!! This place is AMAZING!!…read more I will admit, when friends of mine suggested we go to an Afgani Restaurant for dinner, I was a little apprehensive as to whether there would be anythign on the menu that i would actually eat. There were 7 people in our group, and there were 8 mains on the menu, so we pretty much ordered one of everything. And all of it was DELICIOUS! My personal favorites were the rose syrup drink that I had that tasted like liquid turkish delight, the eggplant dish (eggplants in an aromatic tomato sauce) and the lamb (melt in your mouth aromatically spiced lamb) Seriously, if you are looking for somewhere new to try, give this place a go. They have a BYO licence (so you can bring your own wine) and the service was EXCELLENT!! We had drinks, and LOTS of food, and some corkage and we shared a dessert and all up when we split the bill it worked out to $37 each. Very reasonable for the amount of food that we had and the quality of the food and the service. This place is a MUST try!!

It's all about the banter between the ladies cooking and the guy behind the counter. Get a…read moretake-away munooshi just to be able to sit, wait and listen! I don't know why it's called a munooshi - it looks fairly similar to a yiros to me, minus the sticks of anonymous meat twirling around behind the counter. All ingredients are laid out fresh in a sandwhich bar at the front of the shop and you can either get takeaway or sit upstairs in their small dining room. I watched them make the munooshi as the two women cooking consistently yelled at each other from across the room, the guy behind the counter complained that "I leave for one minute and chaos" and I was delighted even before receiving the product. Take 1 large soft pita bread, smother it in tahini, add freshly cooked moist falafel with a crispy exterior, add fresh rocket, tomatoes and cucumber and then smooth the pita bread in half, toast in the grill and wrap up to serve. Simple? Yes. Bloody cheap? At $8 yes. Healthy? Anything with vegetables and tahini has to be - so yes. Quick service? For how busy they were at lunch - yes. Filling? I could have split it between two and then gotten a fresh juice with lunch - yes. So go and get munoosh'd next lunch time.

What is munooshi? It is defined as an Arabic Pizza, however, I would describe it as the result of…read moresomeone combining a yiros and a calzone. It's sort of like a folded over yiros, but more delicious. Munooshi is the perfect place to go, when you are after a quick lunch in the city. Many of the workers along rundle street run down there for a quick bite on their lunch break. Munooshi has many vegetarian as well as meat lover options and is extremely healthy. A lot of my health freak/exercise freak friends frequent the joint regularly. However, my favourite thing about Munooshi is that it is extremely cheap! You can purchase a meal and a drink for little over $10, so it definitely won't break the bank. The café has very limited seating area, so if you plan to go during peak hour (12-1pm) I'd suggest getting take-away. Rymill Park is situated directly across the road, so if it's a nice day, take your munooshi and go and enjoy it in the park!

Interesting, pretty, inviting and you can see that actual thought was given rather than just plopping it on the plate. I was in a group of 7. The service was fast, efficient and friendly. Staff took the time to chat and smile, share their story of where they were from over taking your order or cracking your pepper! Everyone's food looked delicious. I order the chicken Mediterranean. The saltiness of the mash overpowered the delicate flavours of the apricot and stuffing, but it was still a good meal. Chicken was tender and I had the happy feeling at the end. All that counts right? Lol Save room for desserts and coffee. They have a nice selection. The tiramisu is a good size to share with a friend. Go on....get your romance on. Hope you find time to drop in.
