Outstanding food and service. Food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The Kafta beef was exceptional and very glad I chose that over the shish kabob beef, b/c it was so flavorful and good.
Veggies and potatoes also very good.
Service was also excellent. Attentive but not overly so. Also the main manager seemed truly grateful to serve and do the job well.
10/10 would def go back.

Byblos is one of those places you walk into once and immediately want to come back. The vibe is super welcoming, and the food is seriously next level. If you’re into Lebanese food—or even if you’re just curious—you have to try their Kibbi Nayyi. It’s unbelievably fresh and full of flavor, easily one of the best I’ve had anywhere.

And honestly, what really makes this place special is Joseph. He runs the restaurant with so much passion, and it shows...

Excellent food and service. I’ve tried most of the dishes on the menu and have never been disappointed. I have brought coworkers, friends and family as well as takeout. Great wine list as well.
