Quite a nice selection of middle eastern food with slight fusion twists in some dishes. Atmosphere and decor the restaurant was well done giving a feel of homeliness with a nice modern touch.
Food was overall well done and quite well priced overall a great range of flavours. Few minor issues like duck breast slightly over cooked and roasted pumpkin could have been more palatable in bite sizes.
The service here was excellent waiters and waitresses were always attentive and responsive to requests.
Visited again July 2018:
Very tasty seafood dishes, very flavoursome however the only let down was the lamb schwarma which was too dry. Pretty decent portions. Service was sparse but very friendly once we got their attention.

Fantastic value on the 50% food on dimmi and quality of food and presentation greatly exceeded our expectations. Very well seasoned and meats are of high quality and tender. Who knew modern Lebanese food was so refined and tasty! Loved their cured salmon, squid, octopus, beef cheek and lamb shawarma dishes, and their knafeh was also lovely. Lebanese wine was pretty good too! Service was very friendly, laid back but also knowledgable about the wine/food suitability. Keep up the good work and Will definitely be back!
A little on the expensive side, but I would say worth the price. The staff were excellent and very friendly. Great place to bring friends to share a few different things.
I wasn't a huge fan of the knafe (dessert) but that's my personal taste. The coconut icecream could have been made from fresh coconut instead of coconut cream in my opinion.
The slow braised lamb, and the samousek (sort of like spinach cheese pies) were equally delicious and satisfying.
The samousek came with a mild red pepper sauce, and in addition to being filled with ricotta had a hint of a parmesan (not sure if that was the actual cheese but it's the same taste).
The lamb had was spiced and crispy in places, and tender enough to be pulled apart, beautiful. It was served with pita bread, more red pepper sauce, hummus with olive oil, and a side of rocket and pickled radish. Very enjoyable for one hungry person or two people who want to try something reliable.
I would come back to try the savoury dishes mentioned, and also to try some of the other items on the menu.
