Great place. Would go there again definitely, but they really need to move to bigger premises.

Do not recommend!
Was there last night. There was a mice in the beer garden. Service was very slow and poor. Took 2hrs for the mains to come out. I had to confront the staff in order to get the mains which was disappointing. The food was average if that. Serving size was small for a table of 9 and what you pay. The food was nothing like what previous people posted maybe they change their mezza menu. Very disappointing. There are better middle eastern style restaurants espically being in the north that will give a true authentic experience.
I kept trying to get the staff attention they kept brushing me off so hopefully this will get them to take their customers more seriously.

First of all we booked a table for 11 people with deposit upfront and our table wasn’t available so we were forced to sit outside in the freezing cold, second we were forced again to order food for 10 that was barely enough for 5 people, third the food was actually below average, fourth the cutlery was dirty and some of the dishes were broken, and lastly there was not enough staff, we had to wait for 20 minutes for a jug of water and the bill was ridiculously big
Not trying this place again for sure such a (SCAM) and very overrated

We wanted shisha and drinks, and they forced us to order their bouquet food, other wise they'll charge $25 per person extra.

Rude service and staff.

Overpriced and seriously disappointing. Never again.
In response to the owner's reply: exactly, we had the $53 banquet - for a combined total of $106, I expected more than what felt like a repetitive variation of the same dip. Such a shame. Good luck for the future - what you have there could be amazing.

I went with my family and friends Sunday night for a dinner, they have only banquet option.
Price was ok specially you will have a nice music band, the staff was very nice, good and didn’t bother to receive my order in a short time.
The only two comments I have, that they need to take more care about the washroom, the exhaust fan seems no one cleaned it for quite sometime. Also, the outdoor Gazebo needs to be strained more firmly as we noticed it was wiggling during the windy night and put the family and kids on stress.

Will I go back again there? Yes, but not very soon

Excellent place for Lebanese food lovers. Makes this Dubai girl so happy. The wraps are delicious and generous and the brunch selection is top notch. It’s dog friendly too! Beautiful decor in the beer garden. Haven’t gone in the evening but I’m sure it’s magical.

Enjoyable night. Staff were very accommodating, atmosphere was fantastic and music was great. Although it is hard not to judge your own culture’s food more than others, the food was top notch. Will definitely come back!

Went to lunch here today. I have to say I wasn't in a particularly good mood when I walked in. However, after arguably one of the best coffees I've ever had, I was pleasantly surprised. And it just kept getting better. The food was absolutely delicious, the owner Safi was so welcoming and friendly, he made us feel like we had gone to a friend's house for lunch. The atmosphere was very welcoming and laid back with a bohemian meets Arabian nights aesthetic.

Awesome little cafe and beer garden! We shared the Raqwa banquet for two guests and it was huge and delicious! The owners were very friendly too! We will definitely go back again.
