We had such a great time and truly enjoyed the delicious food, but what stood out the most was the service. Our server was incredibly kind and helpful. I didn’t catch her name, but I really hope she gets recognized (and maybe even a raise!) because she’s the kind of person who makes customers want to come back again and again. Thank you ❤️

I recently had the pleasure of dining at a Lebanese restaurant, and the experience was nothing short of delightful. From the moment I stepped inside, the warm ambiance, soft lighting, and welcoming aroma of spices set the tone for an authentic culinary journey. The staff greeted us with genuine hospitality, making us feel at home right away.
We began our meal with a traditional snacks , which was a perfect introduction to Lebanese flavors. The hummus was smooth and creamy, delicately balanced with lemon and tahini, while The tabbouleh was fresh and vibrant, bursting with parsley, mint, and a zing of lemon that awakened the taste buds. Warm, fluffy pita bread accompanied the dips, baked to perfection.
For the mains, we ordered the mixed grill, which came with succulent of chicken. Each piece was marinated with aromatic spices, tender, and cooked to perfection on charcoal, giving it that authentic smoky touch.
No Lebanese meal is complete without dessert, so we finished with Astha ice cream , sweetened with candy flow rose petals & pistachios, created the perfect ending to an already memorable meal.
Overall, the restaurant delivered not only delicious food but also a complete cultural experience. Every dish reflected tradition, authenticity, and love for Lebanese cuisine. If you are looking for flavorful food, warm service, and a true taste of Lebanon, this restaurant is definitely worth visiting.

Awesome experience. Our server Annie was fantastic and the food was delicious.
Annie was knowledgeable, funny, and a very helpful guide overall. The service was quick and attentive.
The chef and kitchen staff deserve kudos as that was one of the best meals we've had in a long time.
What a pleasant surprise for a place we decided to try on a whim while driving by. We'll be back, and we'll be bringing others.

Almost 5 Stars for Au Liban!
This place is the real deal. The food is fantastic, the portions are generous, and the service is exceptional. There are tons of options on the menu including great vegetarian choices and everything we’ve tried has been delicious.
We often go for the “For the Land” platter which is $70 for two people, but honestly it could easily feed four. The portions are that big. It comes with two skewers of chicken shish taouk, one beef skewer, two kafta skewers, roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables like tomatoes, onions, and peppers, rice, big servings of hummus and toum sauce for dipping, plus an endless supply of warm house-made pita.
The quality is excellent across the board and you actually feel like you’re getting your money’s worth. They also have a great wine selection and a full bar.
On top of that, the atmosphere is beautiful. Some nights they even have live entertainment and belly dancing shows, which makes the whole experience even more fun and memorable.
Every time we leave we’re stuffed, happy, and already talking about what to order next time and pretty much recommending this place to everyone we know.
PS. Only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I need to visit a place more than three times, at random year intervals, and test out the consistency first.
