Great food and nice atmosphere! We did the small plate appetizers. The beet salad and monk baba ganoush were especially delicious. Falafel was so good too and not dry at all.

Enjoyed a falafel sandwich and some mint tea. The sandwich was absolutely delicious. The restaurant is so cozy and lovely to look at. So many details and just a sweet spot for a bite. Friendly service.

Le Souk felt like I was enjoying a meal in someone's home in Syria. Soft, Middle Eastern guitar melodies played in the background as I enjoyed my food. The restaurant was decorated with a myriad of artistic knickknacks. My server was polite, and they came to check in throughout my time there.I took advantage of the 4 appetizers for $30 deal as I was not super hungry. I ordered their beet salad, falafel waffle, stuffed grape leaves, and stuffed kebeh. I intended on ordering the dandelion greens, but they were not available, which was disappointing. The food I did receive, though, was a nice window into their menu.The stuffed kebeh was my favorite, a nice crispy shell with a nutty flavor, juicy ground beef inside, with just a little pomegranate syrup to add a bit of tangy sweetness.I'd love to come back and try some of their sandwiches or an entree in the future. Thanks for the food!

I had dinner with my two adult kids last night; one WAS NOT a fan of middle eastern fare. She is now!!!! Everything was so delicious. Each of us had a different chicken dish. I can't tell you which was the best because they were all THAT good. The chicken was perfectly cooked in all three . Grape Leaves is an absolute must. The atmosphere so cozy. Staff and owner incredibly friendly and accommodating. My new go-to for a cozy, eat-in place!

This place has real home made middle eastern dishes. Stuffed kebehs were just above of highest expectations: crispy on the outside and super juicy with smell and taste of tender ground beef with various middle eastern spices. Hummus and falafel were stellar. For the main we had beef shawarma. I don’t know how they have achieved the result, but the meet literally melted after a bite.
Overpriced for what you get. Real issue was with beef shawarma that, besides being a bit bland, was a sad amount for cost. Humus was great. Baba ganoush was ok.

We have driven by this small restaurant and it looked charming. Tried several times to reserve a table but it is small. We finally did get one and took our son for his birthday. It says it is Mediterranean. The menu is eclectic from the area and when we asked, learned it was Syrian and that the dishes were all eaten there but they had made some small changes for the American palette. The food was tasty and we tried a lot of different dishes. I loved my moussaka (which was different than any other place I have eaten it) and more to my liking - no meat or cheese in it. There was another version with meat in it. The chicken shish was a bit bland. The baba ganoush was excellent as was the hummus. The ambience was also really nice. Service was very good and no one rushed us - we sat and chatted even after the food was cleared away. It was a lovely evening.
Pretty little place, great service, tasty food. Tiny bathroom. Didnt find traditional Moroccan dishes on the menu, but food was still pretty good. Dessert was disappointing, tiny cookies and baklava were the only options, but the mint tea was a great end to the meal.Parking: was surprisingly many meters available at 7 pm around the square.
Homey, friendly, and delicious. You feel like a relative is cooking you a fresh, flavorful meal and serving it to you at their own home. Like being in the Middle East!
