Amazing atmosphere, food and service!The staff always makes us feel at home. I crave the Lebanese garden for 2 and stuffed cabbage every couple of weeks. A Brooklyn native this is a must!

My coworker & I arrived shortly after a very large (as in- almost filling the entire restaurant!) party was seated, so service was a bit slow (for understandable reasons), but were, nevertheless, courteous and helpful.
We ordered the Kibbeh Balls and Saaj Cheese Rolls for appetizers. Aside from one single Kibbeh ball that was cool on the inside, both appetizers were delicious. The kebabs we ordered as entrees were very flavorful and thoroughly-enjoyable!
I also really enjoyed the Mint Tea, served piping-hot in a metal pot (as tea should be!). The mint was refreshing, without overwhelming the taste of the tea.
As to how "authentic" the food is-- I have no idea, as Lebanese cuisine is not exactly my area of expertise. But I can say everything we were served tasted fresh & flavorful, and that's good enough for me!

Great food and a great place for a gathering with friends for the holidays.
The food was good, the salad was missing ingredients, ordered a lemonade they forgot about it, the manager was not on top of things, he included a mandatory tip..
Edit: I just made it one star because the owner’s replay was not honest, it was just me and my wife, I don’t think anybody would call that a large party! Scammer

The restaurant is located in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn. The restaurant serves Lebanese food which is similar to other Mediterranean/Middle Eastern cuisine. I ordered the stuffed squash with a tomato sauce. The dish comes with grape leaves. The Lebanese shepherd's pie is prepared with potatoes stuffed with shallots, meat, pine nuts topped with bread crumbs. The dish comes with a side salad. The hindby is served as an appetizer. It is prepared with dandelion with cilantro and olive oil. Staff is friendly and helpful. Mario is the nice owner with many years of restaurant experience.

Such kindhearted owners. I just opened a tailoring shop around the corner from the restaurant and the owner himself came to welcome me into the neighborhood. I had tried the tasteful grape leave and cheese kanafa!! Really the food was amazing I enjoyed it to the last bite. God bless this restaurant.
