We had a large group (10) for dinner before an event at Climate Pledge. Our number changed a couple times but they accommodated us. The restaurant moved our time to 4:00 from 5:00 but it turned out to be a good idea. We were able to chat, have drinks and appetizers, and a leisurely meal. It was then a short walk to the arena with plenty of time to enjoy each others company. The food was very tasty and the service was outstanding!

We had a very nice server who was attentive to our needs, but it didn't make up for the poor quality of the food. The baba ganoush was tasty, but the pita served with it was dry, tough, and tasteless. The glass of wine I ordered had clearly been opened some time before - sour and unpleasant. I ordered the spanakopita and it was inedible. It was greasy and the spinach filling was disgusting. My companion's entree wasn't bad - a huge plate of rice with seasoned chicken perched on top. It at least was edible. I won't be returning - ever.

Wonderful food in the past but not last night. The rice in our lamb and rice dish was cold and lumpy and the service was terrible. Waited a long time for my beer and then the waitress never came back to check on us. Now we’re leery.

We were in a hurry unfortunately to eat and run and the server was very understanding and went above and beyond to get our food and check quickly!

The food was fine, but the kitchen service was not. We ordered appetizers, but their arrival at the table (quite slow) delayed our main course until just 10 minutes before we had to leave for a performance. If you do go to this restaurant, unless you have two hours (we had an hour and a half), do not order a first course, just order the main course. We spent much of our time there waiting...waiting...waiting anxiously for our meal to come.

Maroun is one of the best restaurants near McCaw Hall. It's family owned and the food is delicious. We particularly enjoyed the Baba Ghanoush and pita. The lamb dishes were very good...next time I'll try the chicken!
Tara
Maroun has an online menu that does not reflect the Dine In menu. It would behoove them to update the online menu. Soup and pita is not served with each entree. No prawns available. Shish Twook was favorable. Hummus was nice.
Diana
Loved the experience, but wish they would take more than one credit card for a group of nine people. When I called on the phone, they told me they could do it, but that evening they said they would not.

Celebrated our 41 yr. wedding anniversary at Maroun Mediterranean Grill. Despite the rain outside, we thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience at Maroun. Great Lebenese cooking, I tried the Kabob combo to get a taste of all the Kabob's offered, chicken/lamb/ ground beef. All the meat was cooked to perfection and spiced correctly, with grilled onion/tomatoes in a bed of rice. My wife chose the Kafta Kabob which she enjoyed immensely. We have made Maroun our 'to-go' place for mediterranean food. Be sure you reserve well ahead of your visit.

The food was high quality with generous portions We especially loved the gyros - the meat was very tender and flavorful. The baklava was also excellent!
I decided to stop by before going to the opera. I was promptly welcome and seated. The server brought water and took my order. So far, so good. Now for the food: The rice was cooked well, the meat a little overcooked and under seasoned. The vegetables tasted fresh and the tahini sauce complimented the meal. Overall, a decent place to dine before attending an event at Seattle Center.

The food, the service and the atmosphere were amazing! We absolutely loved being here and come back any time we're in the city.
The prices are fantastic, the flavors were bold and excellent and the portions are excellent. Try the lamb shawarma!

The most welcoming & warm dinner hosts I’ve ever had! I highly recommend the chicken shawarma, beef kabobs, and baklava! Each dish was seasoned perfectly and just the smell of the food made my mouth water! I cannot write enough comments for this restaurant and its owners, I highly advise that you check out this amazing Seattle staple!
