For me, this is the best Arab/levantine food in the bay. As a Lebanese vegan, i felt emotional because of how good this food was and how many delicious vegan options there were. I haven’t had Kuftah in a long time, and the fact i got to taste a vegan version that tasted identical to the kuftah i grew up eating in Lebanon was so incredible. All the food was incredible. Everyone there was also so sweet and welcoming, service was fast, and the place is beautiful. Cant wait to go back for more.

Very disappointed in our meal tonight at Levant. The dishes were not as expected. The baba gnosh (sp?) was very good. The rest of the dishes were marginal. The portion sizes were small. The wine pour was very small. Very disappointing.

This restaurant adds a “Community Support Fee” to the bill. All restaurants adding junk fees deserve 1 star in my book. It comes across as an attempt to deceive a paying customer, regardless of the fee’s purpose.

We finally got to try out Levant last night and they did not disappoint! Every single dish we had was amazing and the wine imported from Palestine was absolutely lovely! super authentic and the service was excellent!! Make sure you save room for dessert and Turkish coffee! SO good!!! We will be back…often! 😋

Five of us had dinner, ordered different types of food, and they were all very delicious. The sweets were fantastic. I had katayef and some kunefeh, and I finished it with some Turkish coffee. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. We sat outside because of our pet, but inside looked vibrant. If you feel having some Mediterranean food, this is the place to go to.

We dined at Levant in Petaluma and everything was so delicious. Our server, Racheal was attentive and knowledgeable, which added to our relaxing dining experience. We WILL recommend and be back!
We drove from San Francisco just to try Levant, and it was absolutely worth it! We’re already fans of the owner’s other spot in SF, Freekeh :)
The food here is authentically Arabic, flavorful without being over-spiced. Clearly, the word is out because the place was packed during its first week!
We started with the fried Nabulsi cheese (Nablis, the place that invented Knafe), which was the perfect way to kick things off. Then came the traditional Mansaf, tender lamb over rice with a rich dried yogurt sauce, topped with fried almonds, loved it. We also had the Maghloubeh, the famous upside-down Palestinian dish, but here it came in the variation called Sayadiyeh, made with fish, caramelized eggplant, and cauliflower, loved that one too. Finally, we shared the shawarma, sliced and served family-style, which was excellent. We are not going to talk about all the dips but one stood out, the Muhamarah, this Alepo Syrian dish that is all vegan that is sweet as well as a bit spicy, this one is underated and should be with every meal.
Levant is the perfect place to explore authentic flavors and share dishes around the table. Congratulations to the proprietors because opening a restaurant is not easy these days, and you’re clearly making it happen. Wishing you much success!

We had dinner for first time here tonight. The food and atmosphere is nice but the service was really bad. Our server walked up with zero personality and asked if we decided on what we wanted to eat. We ordered two appetizers and then before apps arrived the entrees came. The gal who was our server never returned after taking order to ask how things were or if we needed anything else, we sat in corner a long time w empty plates and empty glasses. Waiting for her to come back she stood far away from us and said over another table “do you want anything else?” My husband said can we see a dessert menu. She came laid it on table and walked away. At this point we were done. She had absolutely no personality, no suggestions, no follow up. Other people even delivered the food to us. She did so little as a server. We asked for bill, paid and left. For a restaurant open a month and good food they should spend a bit more time on the experience that is dining out.

Fantastic food. Good portions. Super good and tasty! Very warm friendly service. We weren't sure which cauliflower dish (wrap or separate) and waitress confirmed with us about which dish. They brought lots of wonderful pita beead to the table. They do take reservations. We had dinner and no reservation, and choose to eat outside, and the bar inside was also available.

As a vegan I was so happy to see so many options to choose from! The entire meal was excellent and every bite was accompanied with, “yummmm!” Arab food is so delicious and I’m so glad this restaurant opened in Petaluma. Service was attentive, welcoming and so friendly. Can’t wait to come back time and time again!

So good! Got the Mezse platter with extra pita and all the dips were amazing. Great service and ambiance. Prices were reasonable for the quality.
