My beef Shwarma was super dry. I really wanted to like it. The humus was good. Bread was good. Rice was OK but the beef. Man o man. It sucked the moisture out of my mouth. I couldn't finish it. For the price point (with a drink $20+) definitely not worth what I paid. It was the first time I've ever had Mediterranean meat that dry (usually its tender, moist and succulent). Im assuming that didnt come off a kebab given how dry it was.

Well done !
Beirut Cafe is a clean and cozy spot, and I really liked that they have an ice cream shop attached to it too! I tried the chicken shawarma, a side of gyro, and kibbeh. The kibbeh was absolutely delicious and my favorite of the bunch. The chicken shawarma was solid and came with hummus and bread, which made it a filling meal.
About halfway through, I felt like the dishes could use a bit more spice or heat—would be nice if they offered that option. Overall though, the food was tasty, the place felt neat and welcoming, and I’d definitely come back again.

The chicken on a simple chicken sandwich meal was so good! It's flavorful and tomatoes, lots of sauce, lettuce, and pickles are included. The bread stays together even with the sauce. I loved the flavors and will be back!

Totally unexpected gem! I walked in with my 2 children when we had an event to attend at the high school next door. I had no idea what to expect. We all the loved the food!

As someone who grew up on Lebanese food, I will vouch for this as fully authentic. I just had food delivered and everything is wildly delicious. Fatoush salad, humus, lamb shish kabob and lentil soup. It is all outstanding!

I love this place! The owners are lovely & the food is so fresh and delicious! Best falafels I’ve ever had- crispy, fluffy. Hummus is beyond.

Super friendly service and the food is phenomenal. The last time I had any kind of Middle Eastern food this good it involved a 14 hour flight to the source. Such amazing flavor and fresh quality meals. Love it! Thank you!

This was My First time eating at Beirut Cafe last week and I Enjoyed every bite .
I especially liked the Pita bread soft fluffy and fresh tasting. I had the Kafta kabob that came with garlic sauce , rice, hummus, & pita bread. I will be back and I will refer anyone who Loves Middle Eastern food. Also it was a neat experience seeing the lady’s cooking wearing Hijabs.

Very clean place and food was good. I had a falafel wrap but it does not come with hummus. After a little back-and-forth, I got a tiny serving on the side but not in it. I just couldn’t understand why it could not be put on the sandwich. BTW it was wrapped so tightly that I could not open it and add it myself. What pay over $13 for a sandwich that cannot be customized? I will not return or recommend eating here.

After tax and tip 15 dollars for just a sandwich. The sandwich was very small. Full of lettuce and cucumber, very little meat. The food was ok, been to Middle East, this tasted like a watered down version. Probably won’t be back. Folks were friendly.
