Great for outdoor dining
Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions

In Lebanon, food is an essential part of all family and social gatherings, with bold flavors, colorful vegetables, and vibrant proteins fresh from the marketplace. Prepared simply and with passion, our cold and hot mezze, various grilled meats, kebabs, fresh seafood, and creative homemade desserts offer something for everyone, including an abundance of vegan and vegetarian dishes.
At Amar, small plates are meant to be shared, and we encourage you to soak up the aromatic spices and herbs of the Mediterranean and the Levantine coast with our handmade pita bread baked fresh in our wood-burning oven. Inspired by the creative souls who embrace old cultures and new experiences, our cozy space is the perfect mix between rustic and refined, the nostalgic and modern. The Kurban family and their attentive staff invite you to linger over a meal and experience their genuine hospitality.

The owner should write a book “How to run a restaurant” and it will be a best seller. The staff is always friendly, prompt, and give great recommendations. They all give off strong kindness and family vibes. The ingredients are fresh and delicious. Portions are generous, sometimes we have leftovers if we are able to have self-control. We keep going back to try different items on the menu and are never disappointed. We ALWAYS get the BABA! We love the new location, it is beautiful. Every time we leave we are trying to plan when we can come back again. Well done all around.

Best Happy Hour in Delray! The new Amar is fantastic, the ambiance is spot on and the staff are PROs. The team works together like a symphony. The food is the star, so so good. The drink selection is perfect. It's a great place to have a celebration meal with friends or a nice night out for a couple. The hummus with beef shawarma is so yummy, it is a MUST have.
