Great cocktail menu. Two thumbs up for the chai tea cocktail. The brie was great too. The duck was amazing but there were no sides. That was a downer. I hope to return soon.

Picked a busy night—Valentines Day. Restaurant is small and it was full all night. Noisy but you could still hear your table talk. Food was excellent and prices fair. Good service from the whole family!!

Lebanese Taverna is one of our favorites over many years. We enjoy the food and the attentiveness of the wait staff. The Valentine's Day special was superb. Nice selection, far more than we could eat, so we can enjoy again at home. We suggest that on a weekend (Fri-Sun) making a reservation for an earlier time (like 6PM).
