  We eat there at least once a week! The restaurant IS a one man show which makes this even more noteworthy. In this day and age when most restaurants don't 'cook' in house, but only buys and warms/microwaves frozen or already prepared food, it's nice to find a place where the owner/chef preps and cooks the food from fresh ingredients. His menu is diverse, seasoned and prepared as if you were a guest in his house.

  Delicious food and a wonderful host. We took a friend who had never tasted Lebanese food and he is now hooked. Many thanks for a terrific dining experience!

  I was very pleased with dinner here. We had the lamb and trout plates. Both the lamb and fish were cooked perfectly so they were juicy and tasty. The plates come with rice, hummus, salad, and bread which were good as well. We also had the baklava which was savory and not overly sweet. We will eat here again.
