    The restaurant is small and cozy, but not in any way stuffy. Music was upbeat and fun and our server was very friendly and helpful with picking menu items. Now the food, the star of the night.. So good! Every bite from start to finish was delightful. We tried 4 of the 5 shareable plates and all were great. Highly recommend the corn ribs and the sweet potato dish!! We shared the pork chop entree and both my husband and I agree it’s one of the best pork chops we’ve ever eaten! We also had the red velvet Oreo cheesecake and it was also amazing! If I could give this restaurant 6 stars, I would. Can’t wait to go back!

    Our server, (forgot his name, but a tall and polite gentleman), took great care of us and brought us a free dessert and savory dish, as we were celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday and our five year anniversary. Something I enjoyed about him too, is he was informative, guided us through how the menu works, but was not overbearing in his delivery or presence at the table. I’ve been to so many places where you can tell the server is being a bit performative and will drown you in details instead of reading the room and giving people time to process lol. What really stood out as well, was the fact that every staff member we interacted with, (the host, server, and THREE other employees on the floor), all knew we were celebrating and made a point to congratulate us. You could tell they pay attention to special details here. My partner and I are both in the service industry (fine dining), so we notice the small stuff and had no complaints! Even our water glasses never dropped below 3/4ths full. Also worth noting — the value you get for the delicious food, great ambience, and service is WELL worth the price. A wonderful dining experience without breaking the bank. Would highly recommend this place 👍🏻

    This is a great place for families and those with young children. They have a better kids menu than most and have plenty of (paid for) fun add ons that delight a pre-schooler. The adults had fried gator as an appetizer, fish and chips, and blacked fish tacos. All were good and what we expected quality-wise. It wasn’t nearly as loud as we expected and the Dover and mermaid were extra fun in the aquarium. Our service was great from beginning to end and the staff seemed to be in good spirits. We will be adding this to our family special event rotation.

    The experience was really good. We went there to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I love Lebanese food but it was our first time trying a proper Lebanese Restaurant. Our server Michael was so amazing and took time to explain the Menu, patiently helping us with our queries. The freshly made fluffy Pitas were to die for. Best Falafels, Humus and Baba Ganush dips. We tried Cauliflower Baked Veggie option, which was good. Our favourite of the day was the Orange Pistachio Rose Cake. We don’t drink often to lapse on judgement on ordering the drinks 🙈 But, overall really good service and experience. Will comeback again! 🙋🏻‍♀️
