I love this place! Every bite and swallow is delectable. She offers a relaxing outdoor patio, or a cute, cozy and cool indoor experience. Try everything, on multiple visits. Can't be beat for a delicious breakfast (yummy Arabic coffee!) or lunch. Lovely and talented chef/ proprietor.
Arabesque catered a baby shower for 24 guests. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The tabbouleh rivaled that of my own Lebanese mother and the fatayer, hummous, and baba ganoush were magnificent. The crowning glory was the very best tiramisu I have ever tasted, creamy with a perfect balance of flavors.
We loved the food and the ambiance! It was authentic middle eastern cuisine, served in the idyllic setting outside the cafe. Saib, the owner, was lovely. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience the Mediterranean food and hospitality.
