Staff that cares! Great place. Wonderful food. Seems lately customer service is a thing of the past. NOT here. The staff if Friendly, they accommodate seating requests if possible. I get cold , so not sitting outside or by the door makes for a better dining experience.They do keep the door open for outside diners, which can be chilly for those on the inside.They are very knowledgeable in wine selection and know how to pair well with the entrées.One super bonus, lots of gluten free selections!!!Dietary restrictions: They offer many tasty gluten and vegetarian options. I'm neither, but my sister is gluten sensitive, and this was a fav of hers.

This is a nice place to eat on a weekday lunch. That's when I was there. Not too busy and good atmosphere. The service was friendly and nice.I had a bowl of the vegetable soup and a Greek salad with filet mignon. The filet was so tender and delicious. It's been a long time since I had such a tender piece of meat.They have a great selection of whisky too although I didn't have any drinks.Great place for a nice lunch. I plan on going back.Dietary restrictions: A lot of gluten free options

Food is amazing here. The frog legs, quail, lamb chops, hummus with filet mignon, halloumi, and spicy lebni were all amazing. Clearly the owners of this restaurant understand what it takes to run a high quality Lebanese restaurant. I highly recommend you eat at this place. I am a regular and I have never questioned any plate or the service in this amazing restaurant. The fries were crisped to perfection and perfectly salted. Come check it out, have a cocktail, and you will likely be welcomed by the owner of the Diplomat.Kid-friendliness: They got delicious chicken and rice place. Don’t forget to order some delicious French fries. They are very accommodating to children.

Delicious mediterranean cuisine. Amazing Ambience. Live entertainment on Saturdays. Went with family and loved everything about the place - the hospitality, service, food, drinks... Definately a must, especially for dinner. Sit inside or out... your pick... make sure you reserve in advance.

We had a wonderful lunch here, we sat outside and it was very comfortable. We had two appetizers , Brussel sprouts and fried cauliflower, and both were very good. I had a chicken kabob and the meat was jucey and delicious. The cocktail was nice and had real rose pedals in it. There is a great selection of beer and cocktails.
