"I was extremely disappointed after spending nearly £100. Several of us felt unwell after our meal. Many dishes were unavailable, and they had no beer on tap, only a limited selection of bottled beer. They didn’t even offer us a milder option and claimed they had no yogurt, even though we noticed they had raita. The restrooms were not accessible for customers, so we were directed to a building next door. The food lacked both flavor and quality, and the tables and utensils were not clean. Overall, it was a terrible experience. We only wish we had checked the reviews on TripAdvisor before making a reservation. A few years ago, when we visited for the first time, the experience was much better."

The dining experience was pleasant, but the restrooms were out of order, so I had to go to the neighboring restaurant to use their facilities.

After initially not providing a larger design, the group reassured us that it was no problem. However, when someone wanted to use the restrooms, we were informed that they were out of order. We ended up leaving.

We really liked the place and the food was excellent. However service was really slow and it appeared that take away orders were being dished out more quickly than in the restaurant. Once the food came we were really pleased we had waited. Others didn’t. View menu

Starter order had to be changed as they had elapsed out of ingredients main course hühnerburger was returned as stone cold and my wife had deville huhn, which was over boiled and dry. no manager in the service only x2 young girls try to manage it best. Finally, the payment I paid on the line was not removed from the bill I forgot to claim. terrible experience will not go back!

I booked in the morning for the same evening, Saturday, and rang a couple of hours later to amend my booking for half an hour later and one less guest. This was handled in a friendly, professional manner. We arrived on time and greeted warmly. The service was efficient and helpful. The food was excellent, we all thoroughly enjoyed all the dishes we ordered; generous portions and piping hot. I would definitely recommend and would return if we are ever in the area afpgzun.

"A group of 28 of us from a retirement association descended on the restaurant for an evening meal. We have a programme of meals called Food Around the World, with the intention of introducing the association’s members to varied tastes and restaurants in the area that they may not normally consider. And so it was with the Lebanese. The organiser had eaten here twice before and, having enjoyed both times, hoped the experience would be good for others. None of the other twenty-seven attendees had visited the restaurant before, and from the positive comments there are at least six wanting to go back privately. To avoid undue choice and confusion we agreed with the proprietor to take the set menu offering, and that way give the attendees a varied ‘taste of the Lebanon’. Food was well received and after the various starters some thought the meal had finished the main grill and shawarma hadn’t even been served at that point, so most attendees did go home ‘stuffed’! We started at 6:30pm, and the group was clearly having an enjoyable time and it was difficult to get them away, with most staying until nigh 10pm a good sign. With 28 of us, we filled the restaurant, and to some extent that did make moving/serving in the restaurant a bit of challenge as the restaurant is cosy. Two minor negatives slightly different table configuration might have made the feel less cosy, but then it wouldn’t have been as social. The drinks service was slightly disjointed. Material issues. No! In summary, food was plentiful, tasty, well-cooked, not exorbitant prices and therefore well worth a visit.
